Abstract BACKGROUND: In China, some biogas residue, which cannot be utilized by microbes in the anaerobic process, has been used as fertilizer. More has been deposited in biogas plants or on land around the plants. This has an effect on the environmental protection of the biogas plant, especially if the high lignin co…

The adsorption conditions used to immobilize catalase onto thin films of carbon nanotubes were investigated to elucidate the conditions that produced films with maximum amounts of active catalase. The adsorption kinetics were monitored by spectroscopic ellipsometry, and the immobilized catalase films were then assayed…

J-Aggregates are a class of organic molecules that possess several interesting characteristics that make them attractive for a range of organic-based optoelectronic devices. We present experimental and computer-simulation studies of the Raman-active vibrational modes in the J-aggregate-forming dye 5,6-dichloro-2-[[5,6…

Polymeric nanofibers containing both carbon nanotubes and titanium dioxide were produced by electrospinning and used to photocatalytically reduce Cr(VI) ions. A comparison was made between multiwall carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and single-wall CNTs, as well as between OH-functionalized and nonfunctionalized CNTs. The reduc…

Enzymatic digestion, the commonly used method of adipose-derived stromal cells isolation, is time consuming and expensive, especially when applied to large volumes of tissue. In the present study, the characteristics of the cells obtained by adipose tissue explant culture were studied. We found that adipose tissue fra…

The mass transfer and kinetics of NO x absorption into (NH 4 ) 2 SO 3 solution, the main compound of an ammonia-based wet flue gas desulfurization process, have been investigated in a double-stirred reactor. Under the experimental conditions, the gas−liquid reaction between NO x and the (NH 4 ) 2 SO 3 solution without…

Complexes of two Cyanovirin-N (CVN) mutants, m4-CVN and P51G-m4-CVN, with deoxy di-mannose analogs were employed as models to generate conformational ensembles using explicit water Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulations in solution and in crystal environment. The results were utilized for evaluation of binding free energ…

This paper investigates the free vibration characteristics of micro-switches under combined electrostatic, intermolecular forces and axial residual stress, with an emphasis on the effect of geometric nonlinear deformation due to mid-plane stretching and the influence of Casimir force. The micro-switch considered in th…

We demonstrate the use of n/p polymer/polymer heterojunctions deposited by sequential solution processing to fabricate ambipolar field-effect transistors and complementary logic circuits. Electron and hole mobilities in the transistors were ∼0.001-0.01 cm(2)/(V s) in air without encapsulation. Complementary circuits i…

We present a theoretical study of the Pauli or spin-valley blockade for double quantum dots in semiconducting carbon nanotubes. In our model, we take into account the following characteristic features of carbon nanotubes: (i) fourfold (spin and valley) degeneracy of the quantum-dot levels, (ii) the intrinsic spin-orbi…

This study reports a simple colorimetric method for the sensitive detection of S-adenosylhomocysteine hydrolase (SAHH) activity and inhibition using fluorosurfactant-capped gold nanoparticles (FSN-AuNPs). FSN stabilizes the AuNPs against conditions of high ionic strength, and FSN-AuNPs are merely aggregated in the pre…

Abstract Different pressure‐sensitive adhesives (PSAs) based on acrylic monomers were synthesized under different reaction conditions. The synthesized PSAs have good adhesive properties and without leaving any residue can be easily peeled off from the surface of a substrate. The relationship between PSAs rheological b…

Recently, a method for obtaining diffraction-attenuation resistant beams in absorbing media has been developed in terms of suitable superposition of ideal zero-order Bessel beams. In this work, we show that such beams keep their resistance to diffraction and absorption even when generated by finite apertures. Moreover…
