Low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) are particularly affected by cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), as more than 75% of all CVD deaths occur in these countries. Global prognostic figures are alarming, as an estimated 23.6 million people will die each year due to CVDs by 2030. For this reason, one of the targets of t…

The area of automotive fuel, or fuel components, which can be produced from biomass also includes dimethyl ether, otherwise known as DME. The issue of the use of DME as a fuel is one which has been monitored until recently. Biomass can also be used as the raw material for the production of DME. DME has therefore repla…

High energy X-rays from accelerators are used to irradiate food ingredients to prevent growth and development of unwanted biological organisms in food, and by that extend the shelf life of the products. The production of X-rays is done by accelerating 5 MeV electrons and bombarding them into a heavy target (high Z). S…

The dynamic colour of three commercial reversible thermochromic inks were studied. Thermochromic printing inks change their colour according to a change in temperature. The two types of thermochromic inks are based on leuco dyes and liquid crystals. The thermochromic effect achieved by liquid crystals is quite differe…

Mesoporous silica-phosphate hybrids were successfully prepared by three processes: hybridization post synthesis by H3PO4, hybridizations during synthesis by Na2HPO4 and by PO(OC2H5). X-ray diffraction patterns confirm that the hexagonal pore structure was maintained after the hybridization process. The maximum phospha…
