We investigate the electronic characteristics and the absorption spectra of poly(3-octylthiophene), POT, films grown by electrochemical methods onto Au substrates. We discuss the results considering the morphological factor. POT films thickness can be controlled by current density in the electropolymerization process. The film roughness depends on the thickness, being about 12% of film thicknes...

An experiment was conducted at the Department of Soil Science and Agricultural Chemistry, Tamil Nadu University, Coimbatore during 2021-2022 to evaluate effect zinc iron on growth, quality, yield biochemical trait marigold cv. Local Orange. The laid out in completely randomized design (CRD) with eight treatments three replications. included an untreated control (T1) , 100% RDF (T2) along soil a...

The flowers of African marigold (Tagetes erecta L), a medicinal plant widely cultivated in Thailand, were subjected to evaluation for total phenolics, DPPH scavenging and thiobarbituric acid-reactive substance (TBARs) assays as well as tyrosinase inhibitory activity. In preliminary studies, the ethyl acetate (EA) extract obtained by continuous extraction showed the highest activities with highe...

number of over-50-year-old Americans who regularly visited the cinema increased by 68%.” The article goes on to say that largely in response to this demographic shift in filmgoers, “it is estimated that around a third of Hollywood productions are being made with an eye on older audiences.” Indeed, over the past 5–6 years, there have been a large number of major-release feature length films that...

PURPOSE To determine the risk factors and clinical presentation of primary omental torsion (POT) in children. METHODS Histopathology records of a pediatric hospital from January 1993 to March 2003 were reviewed to identify cases of POT. Hospital charts of patients diagnosed with POT were reviewed for demographic data and clinical presentation. RESULTS A diagnosis of POT was recorded in 12 o...
