The Silver nanoparticles are well-known for their antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory wound healing abilities. We synthesized Silver nanoparticles using chemical reduction method and the formation of the silver nanoparticles was characterized by UV-Vis absorption spectroscopy, FT-IR and SEM techniques. The minimum inhibitory concentration of the synthesized nanoparticles was determined for both gr...

Time-resolved spectroscopy is a powerful technique permitting the separation of the scattering properties from the chemical absorption properties of a sample. The reduced scattering coefficient and the absorption coefficient are usually obtained by fitting diffusion or Monte Carlo models to the measured data using numerical optimization techniques. However, these methods do not take the spectra...

In the present investigation, the magnetohydrodynamic Falkner-Skan flow of tangent hyperbolic nanofluids over a stretching/shrinking wedge with variable suction, internal heat generation/absorption and chemical reaction with activation energy have been scrutinized. Nanofluid model is composed of “Brownian motion’’ and “Thermophoresis’’. Transformed non-dimensional coupled non-linear equations a...

Photonic crystal coupled with plasmonic nanoparticle arrays to form a periodic plasmonic architecture was prepared by loading Au nanoparticles inside the inverse opal TiO(2) film. The visible and near infrared light absorption was increased by 62% and the overall light-to-electricity conversion yield was thus increased by 41% compared with the control test.

A technique for quantitative determination of cephalothin and desacetylcephalothin in serum using a method based on high-pressure liquid chromatography is described. Both compounds were quantitatively extracted from serum by using dimethylformamide. After separation of the drugs by reverse-phase chromatography and detection by ultraviolet light absorption at 254 nm, serum concentrations of ceph...

Yuanhu Zhitong Tablet (YZT) is an example of a typical and relatively simple clinical herb formula that is widely used in clinics. It is generally believed that YZT play a therapeutical effect in vivo by the synergism of multiple constituents. Thus, it is necessary to build the relationship between the absorbed fingerprints and bioactivity so as to ensure the quality, safety and efficacy. In th...

In the process of vermicomposting, the earthworms Eisenia fetida have been exposed to various metals with different concentrations to study the effects on worms’ bioaccumulation. The study was carried within 14 days of exposure. Five different chemical compounds in various concentrations were added as mixture solutions to the experimental containers. Metals concentrations were measured in earth...
