Interest in the utilization of the mm-wave band has recently spurred extensive research in the exploration of SiGe and CMOS technologies for high-data-rate short-range communication. Building blocks and complete transceivers have been demonstrated in the 60-to-77GHz range [1, 2]. With the continued scaling of nanoscale CMOS technology and the resulting increase in intrinsic device ft, there are...

Psychiatric disorders cover a wide range of clinical phenotypes and are generally classified by symptomatology in systems such as the classification outlined in the American Psychiatric Association’s Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition (DSM-5). In addition to counseling and other forms of behavioral treatment, treatment commonly involves 1 or more psychotropic m...

this study was conducted to determine the effect of foliar salicylic acid (sa) and citric acid (ca) applications on growth, biochemical characteristics and essential oil content of thyme (thymus vulgaris l.) grown under field conditions. salicylic acid (0.5 and 1 mm) and citric acid (5 and 10 mm) were applied three times during the vegetation at 15 day intervals. results revealed that foliar ap...

Multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT)/Portland cement (PC) composites have been prepared to evaluate their electromagnetic wave absorbing properties. The effects of MWCNTs content and sample thickness were discussed in the frequency ranges of 2–18 GHz. Results show that the absorbing properties of cement-based composites are affected by the content of MWCNT and the thickness of the samples. When...

this research established the scientific bases for the folkloric use of the neglected dialium guineense fruit coat in wound and microbial infection management in nigeria. the phytochemical analysis of the crude extract, fractions and sub-fractions was performed by standard methods. agar well diffusion protocol was adopted for the antimicrobial assay while the wound healing properties was determ...

Background: Sperm cryopreservation has been associated with over production of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Buffalo spermatozoa are susceptible to ROS inducing damages due to insufficient level of cytoplsmic antioxidant along with high amount of poly unsaturated fatty acids composition in membrane structure. Therefore, appropriate antioxidant in buffalo cryopreservation extender would reduce ...
