Leaching can be analyzed with respect to both the catalyst (rest state) and catalyst degradation products. The above reactions involve the separation of an n-octane product solution from a 5a catalyst residue at - 30 °C, and a subsequent n-octane extraction at - 30 °C. The data in Fig. 2, together with the solvent quantities employed, predict catalyst leaching of < 0.33% per cycle (calculated from the solubility at - 20 °C). This rises to 1.0 and 3.6% if phase separations are conducted at 0 and 20 °C, respectively. 

Microspheres are particles ranging between 1 and 100 pm. They are typically formed from degradable polymeric materials such as albumin, polysaccharides, or poly(a-hydroxy acids) by precipitation or phase-separation emulsion techniques [6, 332]. The relatively large diameters of microspheres make their extravasation into the tumor mass difficult and the uptake of microspheres by the RES is very rapid.
