High performance glass fiber reinforced epoxy composites are in greater demand several industrial applications, from civil structures to aviation industry. The has highly cross-linked structure and is found be high polymer. Further, carbon nanofillers such as multi-walled nanotubes (MWCNT), graphene nanoplatelets (GNP) thermally stable microfiller aluminium trihydrate (ATH) being used improve t...

Aim: The aim of the present study was to synthesize different sizes of gold nanoparticles (GNPs) and their characterization for use as a label in lateral flow assay particular for the detection of bluetongue in small ruminants. Materials and Methods: Size controlled synthesis of GNPs was done by using different concentration of sodium citrate. In this study, five different types of GNP were syn...

BACKGROUND When a fluorophore is placed in the vicinity of a metal nanoparticle possessing a strong plasmon field, its fluorescence emission may change extensively. Our study is to better understand this phenomenon and predict the extent of quenching and/or enhancement of fluorescence, to beneficially utilize it in molecular sensing/imaging. RESULTS Plasmon field intensities on/around gold na...

Radiation therapy (RT) is an integral component of the treatment of many sarcomas and relies on accurate targeting of tumor tissue. Despite conventional treatment planning and RT, local failure rates of 10% to 28% at 5 years have been reported for locally advanced, unresectable sarcomas, due in part to limitations in the cumulative RT dose that may be safely delivered. We describe studies of th...

The progress of nanotechnology has prompted the development novel marine antifouling coatings. In this study, influence a pristine graphene nanoplatelet (GNP)-modified surface in cyanobacterial biofilm formation was evaluated over long-term assay using an vitro platform which mimics hydrodynamic conditions that prevail real environments. Surface characterization by Optical Profilometry and Scan...

Understanding the patterns of noncovalent adsorption double-stranded nucleic acids (dsDNA) on gold nanoparticles (GNPs) was aim this study. It found that high-affinity motifs in DNA can and do act as an “anchor” for fixation whole molecule GNP (up to 98 ± 2 single-stranded (ss)DNA molecules per particle with diameter 13 nm). At same time, involvement intramolecular interaction negatively affect...

We study the aggregation of carbon allotrope nanofillers in matrix isotactic polypropylene with direct small-angle neutron scattering measurements. With ATSAS software, we analyzed data and determined fractal shape, dimension, sizes nanofiller bulk over range angles. estimated volume distributions different types at concentrations: nanographite, graphene nanoplatelets (GNP), fullerenes, single-...

Conductive polymer composites (CPCs) of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and graphite nanosheet (GNP)-filled thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) are 3D-printed into flexible piezoresistive sensors via fused filament fabrication. The sensor, with a customized lever-cross structure, allows detection stretching out-of-plane forces different magnitudes frequencies. force direction is obtained by combing the re...

This paper explains the co-ordinate based location system built for XenoSearch, a resource discovery system in the XenoServer Open Platform. The system is builds on the work of GNP, Lighthouse and many more recent schemes. We also present results from various combinations of algorithms to perform the actual co-ordinate calculation based on GNP, Lighthouse and spring based systems and show our i...

Private social welfare expenditures were $680.7 billion in calendar year 1990. Viewed as a share of gross national product (GNP), private expenditures were 12.3 percent for calendar year 1990, while public expenditures for fiscal year 1990 were 19.1 percent of GNP (table 1). The private social welfare expenditure series was developed by the Social Security Administration (SSA) in 1955, with pro...
