Physarum polycephalum slime mould can modify polyaniline (PANI) features due to its internal activity.We created networks with different conductivity made by the slime mould on PANI substrates.Thus, Physarum's growth results in changing the conductivity state of PANI layers, providing negative and positive patterning…
Slime mould has been proven to be a fruitful living substrate for implementing a wide range of computing circuits from computational geometry to collision-based logical circuits to robot control. It is apparent, however, that constructing working real-time universal processors from the slime mould is non-trivial task.…
In lakes Rogóźno and Zagłębocze located in the Łęczna-Włodawa Plain (E Poland), monthly and daily changes in the vertical distribution of phytoplankton biomass were investigated. In both lakes, phytoplankton biomass in metalimnion were two or three times higher than in epilimnion. In Rogóźno Lake, Planktothrix rubesce…
Computational modeling of polymeric nanoparticles as drug carriers have been extensively studied due to their varied functionalities, tunable structures and the capability of controlled drug release.Nano particulate polymeric drug delivery systems enable a cell specific targeting with negligible side effects and drug…
Recently, oily wastewater treatment has become a hot research topic across the world. Among the common methods for oily wastewater treatment, coalescence is one of the most promising technologies because of its high efficiency, easy operation, smaller land coverage, and lower investment and operational costs. In this…
Mechanical and tribological performance of red clay ceramic tiles uncoated and coated by oxy-fuel thermal spraying process from α-Al2O3 powder was evaluated. The ceramic tile substrates were manufactured by uniaxial pressing at 30 bar pressure, and sintered at 1100°C, while alumina Sulzer-Metco 105SPFTM was used as fe…
Building dimers of organic photochromic compounds paves the way to multifunctional switches, but such architectures often undergo partial photoreactivity only. Combining photochromism of molecules and plasmon resonance of gold nanoparticles (NPs) is known to affect the photochromism of monomers, yet the impact on mult…
Saccharum spontaneum abundantly available in Pakistan has great potential for production of bioethanol due to high cellulosic contents. In the present study, S. spontaneum grass was impregnated in various concentrations of NaOH (0.5%–3% wt/vol) for different soaking periods (1 h, 2 h, 4 h, 6 h, 12 h, 24 h, and 48 h).…
Abstract The crystal structures of 4-chloro-5-methyl-2-ammoniobenzenesulfonate and of the corresponding derivatives 4,5-dimethyl- and 4,5-dichloro-2-ammoniobenzenesulfonates have been determined from laboratory X-ray powder diffraction data. The tautomeric state of all three compounds could also be unequivocally deter…
Relative control of soil moisture [30, 60, and 80 percent water-holding capacity (WHC)] on nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from Fargo-Ryan soil, treated with urea at 0, 150, and 250 kg N ha−1 with and without nitrapyrin [2-chloro-(6-trichloromethyl) pyridine] (NP), was measured under laboratory condition for 140 days. S…
In the absence of any surfactants, organic solvents or structure‐directing reagents, the cation‐ and anion‐substituted HAp whiskers, and cation‐/anion‐co‐substituted HAp whiskers with controllable substitution amounts were successfully synthesized via hydrothermal treatment of the same precursor of α‐TCP in an aqueous…
A pot experiment was conducted to study the influence of liming on changes in different forms of acidity in relation to soil properties. Thirty-six surface (0–15 cm deep) soil samples were collected from different soil orders, namely Entisols, Inceptisols, Alfisols, and Entisols of coastal saline zone of West Bengal,…
To raise the recovery of oil during pyrolysis, reactions were performed on oily sludge using catalysts such as a molecular sieve and an Fe-containing molecular sieve catalyst in a tubular furnace reactor. The catalysts were prepared through hydrothermal method and characterized by various characterization methods. The…

Streptomyces species are native inhabitants of soil, a natural environment where nutrients can be scarce and competition fierce. They have evolved ways to metabolize unusual nutrients, such as purines and its derivatives, which are highly abundant in soil. Catabolism of these uncommon carbon and nitrogen sources needs…
The aims of the study were to analyze the treatment conditions for the use of acid and neutral cellulase enzymes and evaluate the changes in the various properties of the treated fabrics. In this study, biopolishing was carried out on bleached fabric using acid cellulase (Mega PK) and neutral cellulase (Mega L-1009D)…
In this study, we propose a full atomistic study of [100] dislocations in MgSiO 3 post-perovskite based on the pairwise potential parameterized by Oganov et al. (Phys Earth Planet Inter 122:277–288, 2000 ) for MgSiO 3 perovskite. We model screw dislocations to identify planes where they glide easier. We show that desp…
INTRODUCTION: Hydrolysate Collagen (HC) consists of small peptides with a molecular weight lower than 5.000 Da. produced from gelatinization and subsequent enzymatic hydrolysis of native collagen which is found in rich collagenic animal tissues. There is much evidence about the HC ingestion positive effect over degene…
The biocidal efficacy of THPS on oil pipeline biofilms was determined by direct MPN counts of SRB and APB after incubations at various concentrations of THPS for 14 days and also by its inhibitory effects on functional group activities of some oil field microorganisms. THPS was unable to drastically inhibit SRB growth…
We report the synthesis of well-dispersed, ultrasmall, core–shell (CS) Au@AgPd nanoparticles (NPs) via galvanic reaction of Ag shells of CS Au@Ag NPs with Pd 2+ ions at room temperature. It is found that Ag content in the resulting AgPd shells is dependent mainly on the thickness of the original Ag shells and the conc…
