Finite difference time-domain (FDTD) technique can be used to model metamaterials by treating them as dispersive material. Drude or Lorentz model can be incorporated into the standard FDTD algorithm for modelling negative permittivity and permeability. FDTD algorithm is readily parallelisable and can take advantage of…
An analytical-numerical model for the electronic current of two dimensional quantum well AlGaN/GaN in high electron mobility transistors has been developed in this paper that is capable of accurately predicting the effect of temperature on the electronic current of two dimensional quantum well and transconductance . S…

PURPOSE: Tc N-MPO ([Tc N(MPO)(PNP5)]: HMPO = 2-mercaptopyridine N-oxide, and PNP5 = N-ethoxyethyl-N,N-bis[2-(bis(3-methoxypropyl)phosphino)ethyl]amine) is a new Tc radiotracer useful for myocardial perfusion imaging. This study was designed to determine its pharmacokinetics and biodistribution in healthy volunteers. P…
Peripheral nerve injury primarily occurs due to trauma as well as factors such as tumors, inflammatory diseases, congenital deformities, infections, and surgical interventions. The surgical procedure to be performed as treatment depends on the etiology, type of injury, and the anatomic region. The goal of treatment is…
Understanding drug transportation and delivery mechanism from a molecular viewpoint is essential to find better treatment pathways. Despite the fact that many significant drugs such as anticancer doxorubicin and mitoxantrone are predominantly hydrophilic, an efficient methodology to deliver hydrophilic drug components…
The trace elements molybdenum and tungsten are essential components of cofactors of many metalloenzymes. However, in sulfate-reducing bacteria, high concentrations of molybdate and tungstate oxyanions inhibit growth, thus requiring the tight regulation of their homeostasis. By a combination of bioinformatic and experi…
UNLABELLED: The control efficacy of tea polyphenol (TP) in combination with tea saponin (TS) against nectarine grey mould decay caused by Botrytis cinerea and the underlying mechanism were investigated. The in vitro experiments showed that both TP and TS inhibited the mycelial growth in a dose-dependent manner, and th…
An E. coli K-12 mutant deficient in S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) synthesis, i.e ΔmetK, but expressing a rickettsial SAM transporter, can grow in glucose minimal medium if provided with both SAM and methionine. It uses the externally provided (R)-enantiomer of SAM as methyl donor to produce most but not all of its methio…
This paper is devoted to the study of propagation of Rayleigh waves in a homogeneous isotropic microstretch generalized thermoelastic diffusion solid half-space. Secular equations in mathematical conditions for Rayleigh wave propagation are derived for stress free, insulated/impermeable and isothermal/isoconcentrated…
At low temperatures, Bacillus cereus synthesizes large amounts of unsaturated fatty acids (UFAs) with double bonds in positions Δ5 and Δ10, as well as Δ5,10 diunsaturated fatty acids. Through sequence homology searches, we identified two open reading frames (ORFs) encoding a putative Δ5 desaturase and a fatty acid acy…
The effects of varying electrode geometry (ball and ring) and size (radius), dielectric liquid (castor oil and Diala ® oil), and specimen thickness on the dielectric breakdown of a commercial‐grade alumina were investigated. The breakdown strength was expressed in terms of the maximum electric field in the ceramic cal…
In this paper, free vibration response of a hybrid composite plate was studied. Effects of some geometrical, physical and material parameters on response of the composite plates embedded with shape memory alloy (SMA) wires were investigated, which have not been reported in the literature thus far. Some of these parame…
Lithium solid electrolytes are of major interest for solid‐state batteries and electrochemical capacitors (ECs). Currently, the material selection space of liquid electrolytes is dominated by lithium salts paired with organics. Improved safety, as well as the need for higher temperature and high voltage operation, ope…
In this study, 13 typical wide-flange steel columns, each carrying an axial load equal to 25% of its axial capacity, are field tested using live explosives, involving charge size of 50 to 250 kg of ammonium nitrate/fuel oil (ANFO) and ground stand-off distance of 7.0 to 10.3 m. The reflected pressure time histories, t…
In addition to being a physiological protective barrier, the gastrointestinal mucosal membrane is also a primary obstacle that hinders the oral absorption of many therapeutic compounds, especially drugs with a poor permeability. In order to resolve this impasse, we have designed multifunctional nanomicelles based on t…
A Cu–carborane-based metal–organic framework (MOF), NU-135, which contains a quasi-spherical para -carborane moiety, has been synthesized and characterized. NU-135 exhibits a pore volume of 1.02 cm 3 /g and a gravimetric BET surface area of ca. 2600 m 2 /g, and thus represents the first highly porous carborane-based M…
BACKGROUND: Currently, the amount of protein/enzyme required to achieve effective cellulose hydrolysis is still too high. One way to reduce the amount of protein/enzyme required is to formulate a more efficient enzyme cocktail by adding so-called accessory enzymes such as xylanase, lytic polysaccharide monooxygenase (…
Present research provides a successful example to use biocompatible pillararene-based assemblies for delivering mixed dyes in dual bioimaging. A series of tadpole-like and bola amphiphilic pillararenes 1-4 were synthesized by selectively employing water-soluble ethylene glycols and hydrophobic alkyl units as the start…
Double-walled carbon nanotubes (DWCNT) are a rather new and unexplored variety of carbon nanotubes. Previously conducted studies established that exposure to a variety of carbon nanotubes produced lung inflammation and fibrosis in mice after pharyngeal aspiration. However, the bioactivity of double-walled carbon nanot…
