In this review, we examine the greenest nanoparticles of zero-valent metals, metal oxides and metal salts, with emphasis on recent developments routes. Products from nature or those derived from natural products, such as extracts of several plants or parts of plants, tea, coffee, banana, simple amino acids, as well as wine, table sugar and glucose, have been used as reductants and as capping ag...

The rapidly growing field of biotechnology has created a critical need for simple, fast andhigh-throughput processes for the separation and purification of biomolecules from biologicalmatrices. In recent years, several bioseparation techniques have been proposed as advancedalternatives to the classical separation methods. These modern processes emphasize ultrahighselective and sensitive analysi...

Electrospinning is a simple and versatile technique that relies on the electrostatic repulsion between surface charges to continuously draw nanofibers from a viscoelastic fluid. Electrospinning can generate nanofibers with a number of secondary structures. Surface and/or interior of nanofibers can be functionalized with molecular species or nanoparticles during or after an electrospinning proce...

In this paper, we introduce the concept of semihyperring $(R,+,cdot)$ together with a suitable partial order $le$. Moreover, we introduce and study hyperideals in ordered semihyperrings. Simple ordered semihyperrings are defined and its characterizations are obtained. Finally, we study some properties of quasi-simple and $B$-simple ordered semihyperrings.

We present an INTEGRAL data analysis of the X-ray transient SAX J2103.5+4545 during two outbursts detected in December 2002. The INTEGRAL coordinates and error circle agree with the position of the recently proposed optical counterpart. A power-law plus cutoff model provided a good fit to the 4–150 keV spectrum yielding a photon index of 1.0±0.1, a cutoff energy E cut = 7.6 ± 2.0 keV and a fold...
