In 1991 a most-favored customer (MFC) rule was adopted to govern pharmaceutical prices paid by Medicaid. Theoretical models show that an MFC rule commits a firm to compete less aggressively in prices. I find that the price of branded products facing generic competition rose (4% on average). Brands protected by patents did not significantly increase in price. Generics in concentrated markets sho...
Today, the majority of materials used for single-use packaging are petroleum-based synthetic polymers. With increased concern about the environmental protection, efforts have been made to develop alternative biodegradable materials from renewable resources. Starch offers an attractive alternative since it is of low cost and abundant. However, the starch material is brittle without plasticizer a...
Mindfulness meditators often show greater efficiency in resolving response conflicts than non-meditators. However, the neural mechanisms underlying the improved behavioral efficiency are unclear. Here, we investigated frontal theta dynamics-a neural mechanism involved in cognitive control processes-in long-term mindfulness meditators. The dynamics of EEG theta oscillations (4-8 Hz) recorded ove...
Microfracture repair tissue in young adult humans and in rabbit trochlea is frequently of higher quality than in corresponding ovine or horse models or in the rabbit medial femoral condyle (MFC). This may be related to differences in subchondral properties since repair is initiated from the bone. We tested the hypothesis that subchondral bone from rabbit trochlea and the human MFC are structura...
Application of microbial fuel cells (MFCs) to wastewater treatment for direct recovery of electric energy appears to provide a potentially attractive alternative to traditional treatment processes, in an optic of costs reduction, and tapping of sustainable energy sources that characterizes current trends in technology. This work focuses on a laboratory-scale, air-cathode, and single-chamber MFC...
The microbial fuel cell (MFC) was applied to produce electricity using sewage sludge as a fuel. The extracellular biological organic matter (EBOM) of sludge, before and after MFC operation, was extracted using ammonium hydroxide whose hydrophobicity was characterized with XAD resin fractionation technique. Following MFC operation, the hydrophilic fraction (HPI) of EBOM was enriched (48.0%-64.5%...
Graphene-modified materials have captured increasing attention for energy applications due to their superior physical and chemical properties, which can significantly enhance the electricity generation performance of microbial fuel cells (MFC). In this review, several typical synthesis methods of graphene-modified electrodes, such as graphite oxide reduction methods, self-assembly methods, and ...
In this study, the single chamber microbial fuel cell (MFC) with annular configuration and spiral anode geometry is proposed for future large-scale applications. Dairy wastewater containing complex organic matter was used as substrate. Factors affecting power generation and internal resistance of this MFC such as substrate injection, electrode surface area, and substrate concentration were inve...
Today's global energy crisis requires a multifaceted solution. Bioenergy is an important part of the solution. The microbial fuel cell (MFC) technology stands out as an attractive potential technology in bioenergy. MFCs can convert energy stored in organic matter directly into bioelectricity. MFCs can also be operated in the electrolysis mode as microbial electrolysis cells to produce bioproduc...
We introduce a sensor molecule, AS140-MFC, consisting of a covalent adduct of an Ala-to-Cys mutant of alpha-synuclein with the 3-hydroxychromone dual emission dye MFC. We show that the AS140-MFC construct is a multiparametric fluorescent probe suitable for the continuous monitoring of protein aggregation and is sensitive to the early and intermediate stages of alpha-synuclein aggregation, a pro...
