BACKGROUND: Gelatin tannate is a mixture of tannic acid and gelatin. Tannic acid has astringent properties, due to its capacity to form protein-macromolecular complexes, as well as antibacterial and antioxidant properties. However, little is known about its anti-inflammatory properties. PURPOSE: To evaluate the anti-i…

Diatoms are widely used in stream quality assessment due to their response to the local environment. Diatoms are also influenced by many large-scale processes and so the diatom communities of boreal streams incorporate a strong spatial component at a regional level. What is not properly known yet is whether the variat…

In-filled and Fe-doped CoSb3 (In y Co4−x Fe x Sb12) skutterudites were prepared by encapsulated induction melting and hot pressing, and their thermoelectric and transport properties were examined. A single δ-phase was successfully obtained by subsequent annealing at 823 K for 24 h, but it decomposed to FeSb2 and Sb wh…

We present exact results for the electronic transport properties of graphene sheets connected to two metallic electrodes. Our results obtained by transfer-matrix methods are valid for all sheet widths and lengths. In the limit of the large width-to-length ratio relevant to recent experiments, we find a Dirac-point con…

We fabricate planarized carbon nanotube (CNT) via interconnects using chemical mechanical polishing (CMP). The selective growth of CNT bundles in via holes and the filling of spin-on-glass into the space among the CNTs are performed, followed by a CMP process. The via resistance is reduced by post-CMP treatment and po…
