A new soil extractant (H3A-1) with the ability to extract ammonium (NH4) nitrogen (N), nitrate (NO3) N, and phosphorus (P) from soil was originally developed and tested against 32 soils (CitationHaney et al. 2006). H3A-1 is composed of organic acid root exudates, which are naturally occurring, and lithium citrate. In…

A two dimensional system of discs upon which a triangle of spins are mounted is shown to undergo a sequence of interesting phase transitions as the temperature is lowered. We are mainly concerned with the `solid' phase in which bond orientational order but not positional order is long ranged. As the temperature is low…

We aimed to evaluate the role of a synthetic somatostatin analogue in delay procedure of experimental skin flaps. Thirty-six rats were randomly divided into 2 groups of 18 each to compare the possible local ischemic effect of octreotide with that of surgical delay in the dorsal random pattern skin flap model. The indu…

The high reset current IR in unipolar resistance switching now poses major obstacles to practical applications in memory devices. In particular, the first IR-value after the forming process is so high that the capacitors sometimes do not exhibit reliable unipolar resistance switching. We found that the compliance curr…

We report on early stages of submonolayer Ag island coarsening on Ag(111) surface at room temperature ($300$ K) carried out using realistic kinetic Monte Carlo (KMC) simulations. We find that during early stages, coarsening proceeds as a sequence of selected island sizes creating peaks and valleys in the island size d…

A series of Fréchet-type dendrimers with 9-benzyloxymethylanthracene cores were synthesized and characterized. The chiral source for the dendrimers was an (S)-2-methyl-1-butoxy group in the 3-position of the benzene ring. Irradiation at 366 nm of a dilute benzene solution led to the formation of two diastereomers (1:1…
