In our study, we investigate the influence of proximity an antiferromagnetic CoO layer on magnetic properties ultrathin wüstite (FeO) films. Comparative Mössbauer spectroscopy measurements for MgO/FeO/MgO(001) and MgO/FeO/CoO/MgO(001) show that neighboring can significantly enhance ordering temperature (TN) wüstite. Importantly, find strongly influences exchange interaction at Fe/FeO interface ...

1761. Figure 1. CSR FeO map of the central basalt pond in Apollo crater. The edges of the basalt pond were modeled as different units due to lateral mixing with the surrounding materials. The absolute FeO abundances from CSR may be overestimated by as much as 2 wt.% [15]. Figure 2. Map of modeled Th compositions used in the forward model. Region 1 = 0.9 ppm Th, Region 2 = 2.5 ppm Th, and Region...

A novel delivery method is described that incorporates taste stimuli into edible strips for determining n-propylthiouracil (PROP) taster status. Edible strips that contained 400 or 600 nanomoles of PROP were prepared for psychophysical studies. Using these strips, we measured taste intensity, taste hedonics, and taste quality responses in a sample of healthy volunteers (n = 118). Participants w...

BACKGROUND Glucose measurement is the cornerstone of diabetes control. In the hospital setting, the same device and package of test strips (50 or 100 strips) can be used to monitor glucose in several patients, which can increase cross contamination. The objective of our study is to measure bacterial contamination in glucose test strips, comparing results in individual single-use packets (one ho...

Abstract This project reports on improving the thermal performance of light-emitting diode (LED) packages based an optimized structure with a sprayed cuprous oxide coating. Eighteen orthogonal arrays LED aluminum plates were used and influence parameters dissipation junction temperature was established. The assembly is developed by various heat structures Taguchi methods. experimental results s...

dysmenorrhea is among the most common gynecological complaints. there are several mechanisms which initiate dysmenorrhea. therefore, different compounds can be employed to control its symptoms. nsaids such as ibuprofen are highly used in modern medicine to relieve the pain in short-term therapy. this method is not acceptable for long-term therapy due to side effects. our previous data showed th...
