Background: Multifunctional core-shell magnetic nanocomposite particles with tunable characteristics have been paid much attention for biomedical applications in recent years. A rational design and suitable preparation method must be employed to be able to exploit attractive properties of magnetic nanocomposite particles. Objectives: Herein, we report on a simple approach for the synthesis of m...

Multishelled NiO hollow microspheres for high-performance supercapacitors have been prepared and the formation mechanism has been investigated. By using resin microspheres to absorb Ni(2+) and subsequent proper calcinations, the shell numbers, shell spacing and exterior shell structure were facilely controlled via varying synthetic parameters. Particularly, the exterior shell structure that acc...

White Leghorn hens were fed diets containing 0, 300, 600, or 1200 ppm technical grade DDT for three 28-day periods. The 1200 ppm diet caused tremors and 33% mortality in the final period, but no gross toxicity symptoms were seen in birds fed the other diets. Egg production was decreased during the third period by 600 or 1200 ppm. Egg weight was decreased during the third period by 600 or 1200 p...

In this study, we report the first preparation of phase-pure Co9S8 yolk–shell microspheres in a facile two-step process and their improved electrochemical properties. Yolk–shell Co3O4 precursor microspheres are initially obtained by spray pyrolysis and are subsequently transformed into Co9S8 yolk–shell microspheres by simple sulfidation in the presence of thiourea as a sulfur source at 350 °C u...

Spirulina is blue-green micro algae. It contains 18 amino acids and vital vitamins like biotin, tocopherol, thiamine, riboflavin, niacin, folic acid, pyrodozoic acid, beta-carotene and vitamin B12 etc. These nutrients which are very easy to digest protein (biliprotein), carbohydrates (mucopolysaccharides, rhamnose and glycogen), 50 different minerals and trace minerals, beta-carotene, chlorophy...

The economic and field performance of six Bombyx mori Linnaeus bivoltine strains were evaluated, namely ICIPE I, Chun-Lei X ZhengZhu (C X Z), QuiFeng X BaiYu (Q X B), Quingsong X Haoyoe (Q X H), Suju X Minghu (S X M) and 75xin X 7532 (75xin). Performance was based on larval, cocoon, pupa and shell weights, relationship of food consumption to larval weight, cocoon weight and shell weight. ICIPE ...

The intertidal clam, Glauconome virens, was collected in the northwestern portion of Peninsular Malaysia near Kuala Perlis, Sungai Layar, and Pantai Teluk Air Tawar. This research attempted to determine cadmium (Cd) lead (Pb) concentrations various G. virens’s organs. Cd (mg/kg dry weight) five distinct soft tissues ranged from 0.90 1.89, but shells 0.95 1.25. Pb 27.0 44.9, whereas shell 74.8 7...

Abstract The study employed 300 laying hens at 34 weeks of age, divided into 5 treatments with 3 replicates per replication 20 birds each, to determine the impact adding okra powder and vitamins C E (Brown-Lite Lohman) egg broiler diets on certain qualitative features oxidation indicators. were: (T1): control treatment without any addition, (T2) 250 mg vitamin / kg diet, (T3) 200 (T4) 2 gm (T5)...

The present study appear the concentration, source and origin of petroleum hydrocarbons in sediment core two station Hor Al- Azim at Al – Huwaiza ,total hydrocarbon measurement by spectroflurometer were these cores. Higher concentration (20.5 μg/g) dry weight depthe (0-5) cm (I) while lower conceatrations (1.5) μg/g depth (100-105) cm, Al-Azim (II) higher conceantration was (17.52) (1.73) (80 -...
