the compressibility factor of nonassociated chain molecules composed of hard convex core yukawa segments was derived with saft-vr and an extension of the barker-henderson perturbation theory for convex bodies. the temperature-dependent chain and dispersion compressibility factors were derived using the yukawa potential. the effects of temperature, packing fraction, and segment number on the com...

a novel quaternary ammonium-based cationic gemini surfactant (s6) having 1,6 di-bromo hexane as a spacer, have been used and its interaction with insulin in aqueous solution (ph, 7.40) was investigated by several methods including fluorescence spectroscopy, uv-vis spectroscopy, circular dichroism, dynamic light scattering, ζ-potential measurements, conductivity and transmission electron microsc...

this study is carried out to estimate the potential evapotranspiration (pet) and crop coefficient (kc) for wheat, bl 3235 variety. a lysimeter is installed to estimate pet at the experimental farm of agricultural research center of bhairahawa, which is located in western part of nepal. the blaney-criddle formula is used to estimate the kc for wheat. the estimated values of pet and kc for wheat ...

the green synthesis of metallic nanoparticles is an active research area in nanotechnology. in the present study, antioxidant potential, total reducing capacity and silver nanoparticles (ag nps) synthetic potential of methanolic leaf extracts of seven plant species were evaluated and compared. antioxidant capacity, expressed as µmol trolox equivalents g-1 dw (µmol te g-1 dw), ranged from 116.0 ...

background: parkinson's disease (pd) is a neurodegenerative disorder impairing motor, verbal and other abilities. visual evoked potential (vep) assessment is a useful method for analysis of visual system and its function. the present study was designed in order to evaluate whether vep changes are associated with pd. m aterials and methods: in the present study, 100 subjects encompassing 40 pati...

the sexual maturation and spawning period of blood cockle in matang mangrove estuary was studied by naked eye and histological observations of the gonads from july 2010 to april 2011. the high spawning period was from november to february. however, at one station where bottom sediment exhibited a severe reduction in potential of −100 mv lower, immature individuals were common. these results sug...

the major reason for the prediction of thermodynamic properties of mercury lies in the fact that itsintermolecular interactions highly depend on temperature and density. internal pressure is a good criterion toinvestigate the density dependence of the interatomic interactions. because its physical base is a forcetending to close together the molecules that is intermolecular interactions, and as...
