Understanding the interactions between natural organic matter (NOM) and zero-valent iron nanoparticles (nano-Fe0) and magnetite nanoparticles (nano-Fe3O4) is essential for evaluating their performance in pollutant remediation, as well as determining their fate and transport in the environment. Batch experiments were performed to investigate the sorption/desorption behaviors of humic acid (HA) o...

In this paper, a Krein-Milman  type theorem in $T_0$ semitopological cone is proved,  in general. In fact, it is shown that in any locally convex $T_0$ semitopological cone, every convex compact saturated subset is the compact saturated convex hull of its extreme points, which improves the results of Larrecq.

With the advent and wide spread use of computers a number of algorithms have been developed to determine the optimum ultimate pit limits in open pit mining. The main objective of these algorithms is to find groups of blocks that should be removed to yield the maximum overall mining profit under specified economic conditions and technological constraints. The most common methods are: Lerchs and ...

recently, cho et al. [y. j. cho, r. saadati, s. h. wang, common xed point theorems on generalized distance in ordered cone metric spaces, comput. math. appl. 61 (2011) 1254-1260] dened the concept of the c-distance in a cone metric space and proved some xed point theorems on c-distance. in this paper, we prove some new xed point and common xed point theorems by using the distance in ordere...

abstract: application of atomic force microscope as a manipulator for pushing-based positioning of nano-particles has been of considerable interest during recent years. however a detailed modeling of the interaction forces and control on the afm tip is important for prosperous manipulation control, a reliable control of the afm tip position during the afm-based manipulation process is a main is...

CONTEXT Many synthetic bone materials have been introduced for repairing bone defects. AIM The aim of this study is to comparatively evaluate the efficacy of nano-hydroxyapatite (HA) and nano-bioglass bone materials with their traditional micro counterparts in repairing bone defects. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this prospective animal study, four healthy dogs were included. First to fourth pre...

The most stringer barrier for the delivery of neurotherapeutics in-vivo is presented by the blood-brain barrier which limits the access of neurotherapeutics to the CNS effectively. Intranasal delivery of neurotherapeutics is one of the promising endeavors to surmount the blood-brain barrier, designated as direct nose to brain transport, by the passage of neurotherapeutics along the olfactory an...

central granular cell odontogenic tumor) cgcot) of the jaw is an exceedingly rare benign odontogenic neoplasm with 35 reported cases in the literature. among these, very few studies have focused on the cone-beam ct features of cgcot. here, we report a case of an asymptomatic cgcot in a 16-year-old girl and focus on the cone-beam ct features. only 36 cases of this lesion, including this one, hav...

Nano materials is a new type of drug carriers with very promising application. In recent years, great progress was achieved in making drugs own the characteristics of targeted and controlled release via nanotechnologies. This paper addressed the capability of nano drugs on targeting to cells, penetrating through epicyte, controlled release and the security issues resulting from its using. We ga...
