Membrane distillation crystallization (MDC) is an emerging technology envisaged to manage challenges affecting the desalination industry. This can sustainably treat concentrated solutions of produced water and industrially discharged saline wastewater. Simultaneous recovery clean minerals achieved through integration membrane (MD). MDC has received vast research interest because its potential h...

We report our most recent progress and demonstration of a frequency domain multiplexing (FDM) readout technology for transition-edge sensor (TES) arrays, both which we have been developing, in the framework X-IFU instrument on board future Athena X-ray telescope. Using Ti/Au TES micro-calorimeters, high-Q LC filters analog/digital electronics developed at SRON low-noise two-stage SQUID amplifie...

The sizes of unfolded proteins under highly denaturing conditions scale as N(0.59) with chain length. This suggests that denaturing conditions mimic good solvents, whereby the preference for favorable chain-solvent interactions causes intrachain interactions to be repulsive, on average. Beyond this generic inference, the broader implications of N(0.59) scaling for quantitative descriptions of d...

Proposed scaling relations of a characteristic timescale in the X-ray power spectral density of galactic and supermassive black holes have been used to argue that the accretion process is the same for small and large black holes. Here, we report on the discovery of this timescale in the near-infrared radiation of Sgr A*, the 4 · 10 M black hole at the center of our Galaxy, which is the most ext...

Non-targeted metabolomics constitutes a part of the systems biology and aims at determining numerous metabolites in complex biological samples. Datasets obtained in the non-targeted metabolomics studies are high-dimensional due to sensitivity of mass spectrometry-based detection methods as well as complexity of biological matrices. Therefore, a proper selection of variables which contribute int...

Along with the scaling of dimensions in quantum systems, transitions between system's energy levels would become close frequency, which are conventionally resolved by weak and lengthy pulses. Here, we extend experimentally demonstrate analytically based swift control techniques on a four-level trapped ion system, where perform individual or simultaneous over two pairs spectrally nearby tailored...

conclusions simultaneous arthroscopic acl and pcl reconstructions using hamstring tendon for combined acl and pcl injuries is a clinically effective, safe, time saving and cost-effective procedure with better patient compliance and reproducible for a timely return of motion, strength, and function with favorable outcome. background multiligamentous injuries of knee are a complex problem in orth...

buprenorphine is a partial mu agonist and kappa antagonist which is used for the treatment of pain and opioid addiction. a mixture of buprenorphine hydrochloride and naloxone hydrochloride has been approved for the treatment of opioid dependence.in this study a third order derivative spectrophotometric method based on zero-crossing technique has been used for the simultaneous determination of b...
