Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulation and Density Functional Theory (DFT) methods have been used to evaluate the efficiency of four quinoline derivatives on corrosion inhibition in the aqueous phase. Some quantum chemical parameters such as hardness (η), electrophilicity (w), polarizability (a), energy of the highest occupied molecular orbital (EHOMO), energy of th...

Introduction High intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) is considered a noninvasive and effective technique for tumor ablation. Frequency and acoustic power are the most effective parameters for temperature distribution and the extent of tissue damage. The aim of this study was to optimize the operating transducer parameters such as frequency and input power in order to acquire suitable temperatu...

an investigation was carried out to study the effect of sole heat treatment and sole 1- methyl cyclo propine (1- mcp) as well as in combination on storage quality of strawberries. the factorial experiment was conducted using a completely randomized design of three replications. treatments included heat treatment at two levels (room teperature, 45°c for 3h) and 1- mcp at two levels (0, 1µl l-1)....

conclusions accordingly, it can be concluded that locally low temperatures and acidic conditions are the main suspected reasons for protein misfolding. results based on the study findings the low temperature, 0°c, and acidic condition change the structure more strongly than other mentioned conditions. the low temperature and acidic conditions seem to have the most misfolding effect on insulin s...
