The electrochemical behavior of Au(111) in contact with deep eutectic solvents (DESs) was studied by cyclic voltammetry, impedance spectroscopy (EIS), and immersion experiments to determine the potential zero total charge (pztc). In particular, DESs type III consisting a choline salt hydrogen bond donor (HBD) were investigated. HBDs urea ethylene glycol (EG) chosen since they belong, combinatio...

Abstract Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) are more environment-friendly and sustainable than ionic liquids (ILs). Determining their physical properties is vital prior to application. However, it not practical experimentally determine the of all DESs. Therefore, developing models estimate necessary. In this study, a generalized model using artificial neural network (ANN) was developed predict heat ...

The paper presents new types of deep eutectic solvents (DESs) based on L-proline protonated using three different acids (hydrochloric, sulfuric and phosphoric)and playing the role a hydrogen bond acceptor(HBA). Glucose xylitol were used as donors (HBD). A series with various mole ratios obtained for systems L-proline: glucose xylitol. Density, melting point, pH viscosity synthesized DESs determ...

OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to explore the efficacy of Ultra-high field [UHF] 7 Tesla [T] MRI as compared to 3T MRI in non-contrast enhanced [nCE] imaging of structural anatomy in the elbow, forearm, and hand [upper extremity]. MATERIALS AND METHOD A wide range of sequences including T1 weighted [T1] volumetric interpolate breath-hold exam [VIBE], T2 weighted [T2] double-echo stea...

BACKGROUND/AIMS To compare the clinical outcomes of 'on-label' and 'off-label' drug-eluting stents (DESs) over a 5-year follow-up period. METHODS A total of 929 patients that underwent percutaneous coronary intervention with DESs were enrolled. Patients were divided into two groups according to on-label (n = 449) and off-label (n = 480) indications. Off-label use was defined as implantation o...

Active power-sharing among distributed energy sources (DESs) is not only an important way to realize optimal operation of micro-grids, but also the key to maintaining stability for islanded operation. Due to the unique configuration of series micro-grids (SMGs), the power-sharing method adopted in an ordinary AC, DC, and hybrid AC/DC system cannot be directly applied into SMGs. Power-sharing in...

OBJECTIVE Although conventional radiography is used to assess osteoarthritis in a clinical setting, it has limitations, including an inability to stage early cartilage degeneration. There is a growing interest in using quantitative magnetic resonance imaging to identify degenerative changes in articular cartilage, including the large multicentered study, the Osteoarthritis Initiative (OAI). The...

The DESS process model is not thoroughly specified. This will be done in next release. Additions (in chapter 5): High-level definition of the process added. Consideration on component-based development process added.

M e t h o d s Data sources: MEDLINE and lists of conference abstracts from the European Society of Cardiology, American College of Cardiology, American Heart Association, and Transcatheter Cardiovascular Therapeutics (to January 2006). Study selection and assessment: Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that compared DESs with BMSs. 25 RCTs (n = 9791, mean age range 59 to 67 y) met the selection...
