security building processes after world war ii, were under the influence of realistic thoughts. this was considered a reaction to idealistic and institutional approaches. critical school attempted to criticize classical and structural realism. new security theoreticians emphasize on extended subjects and diverse threats and believe it to be beyond the competition of countries. they believe that...

abstract leafy vegetables such as lettuce are more susceptible to post harvest losses, thus application desirable treatments can be recommendable. generally, type of packaging, such as modified atmosphere packaging (map) and wrapping can considerably suppress post harvest loss of horticultural products. in this study, the effects of polypropylene film (thickness 30 and 40 micron) wrapping and m...

The rich experimental data on intracellular calcium has put theoreticians in an ideal position to derive models of intracellular calcium signaling. Over the last 25 years, a large number of modeling frameworks have been suggested. Here, I will review some of the milestones of intracellular calcium modeling with a special emphasis on calcium-induced calcium release (CICR) through inositol-1,4,5-...

We believe that economic design and computational complexity---while already important to each other---should become even more important to each other with each passing year. But for that to happen, experts in on the one hand such areas as social choice, economics, and political science and on the other hand computational complexity will have to better understand each other's worldviews. This a...

As healthcare started to be given in holistic approach, spiritual dimension has gained value by getting as much importance as other dimensions (physical, emotional and psycho-social) and this approach has removed the idea of the sipiritual deminsion being only for religious focus. Holistic nursing care is composed of a multidimensional structure including medical, moral, spiritual and religious...

Theoreticians and experimentalists should work together more closely to establish reliable rankings and benchmarks for quantum chemical methods. Comparison to carefully designed experimental benchmark data should be a priority. Guidelines to improve the situation for experiments and calculations are proposed.

abstract the graphene–chitosan composite film modified glassy carbon electrode was fabricated and used to determine amlodipine besylate. in 0.1 m ph 7.3 phosphate buffer solutions, the redox peak currents of amlodipine besylate increased significantly at graphene–chitosan composite film modified glassy carbon electrode compared with bare electrode and chitosan modified glassy carbon electrode, ...

abstract background: the radiographic image accuracy depends on the x-ray film information visibility. good visibility is found by good contrast. radiation exposure parameters (kvp, mas) and film processing conditions have impact on contrast. in dentistry radiography machines, exposure time and processing procedure are set by radiographer. no optimized exposure time and processing conditions ma...
