In this work,copper/palladium (Cu/Pd) multilayer nanowires were successfully prepared by electrodeposition method using polycarbonate template. The fabrication of Pd/Cu multilayer nanowires was controlled by analyzing the current–time transient during electrodeposition using potentiostat. The morphological properties of the nanowires were studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and resu...

Radiographs of injured ankles represent about 1 in 50 of all radiological examinations. The notes and radiographs of 100 patients with ankle injuries were reviewed, and the films of a further 93 patients who had ankle fractures treated by immobilisation were also scrutinised to assess the presence of absence of soft tissue swelling over the malleoli. Any accompanying radiographs of the foot req...

A 33–year-old woman was visited at the dermatological clinic of Loghman-e-Hakim Hospital with multiple hypopigmented patches on her right arm, buttocks and flanks. Her lesions developed over the past year with no regression. Lesions were resistant to multiple antifungal therapies. Clinical examination revealed multiple circular or oval patches on the right arm, flank and sacral area. There was ...

X-ray diffraction observation of metal fracture provides fracture analysis with useful information on the mechanics and mechanical conditions of fracturing. This method is called “X-ray Fractography” and has been developed especially in Japan as a new engineering tool for fracture analysis[1-3]. X-ray fractographic technique was applied to fracture surface of dental material. The relationship b...

Various kinds of forensic evidential samples have been controlled by criminal laws and could not be destroyed carelessly, even if any analytical examinations should be needed on the samples, while those samples should be examined rapidly on the basis of the human rights of the concerned suspects or victims. Those evidential samples have been observed and have been examined by many forensic expe...
