This paper reports the fabrication of solid-state nanofiber sensor arrays and their use for detection of multiple proteins using principal component analysis (PCA). Four cationic and anionic fluorescently embedded nanofibers are generated by an electrospinning method, yielding unique patterns of fluorescence change upon interaction with protein samples. Five metal and nonmetal containing protei...

Following previous tests done on chemically regenerable carbon, Norit has developed a new grade of carbon that has faster adsorption kinetics. The effect of repeated cycles and chemical regenerations on the colour removal performance of this carbon has been investigated. Decolourisation trials were performed on brown liquor with a pilot plant supplied by Norit at the SMRI. Tests were carried ou...

In this study, the effects of flow field types on electrochemical properties polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) humidified with NaCl solution are systematically investigated. The parallel and serpentine were used to investigate PEMFCs. Long-term stability was evaluated for 20 h using chronoamperometry. Fuel both fields showed a decrease in performance because solution. Interesting...

Background In the framework of network sampling, random walk (RW) based estimation techniques provide many pragmatic solutions while uncovering the unknown network as little as possible. Despite several theoretical advances in this area, RW based sampling techniques usually make a strong assumption that the samples are in stationary regime, and hence are impelled to leave out the samples collec...

conclusion for the identification of nasal bone fractures, ct was significantly superior to conventional radiography. although a staff radiologist showed better values in the identification of nasal bone fracture and differentiation between depressed and non-depressed fractures than a trainee, there was no statistically significant difference in the interpretation of conventional radiography an...

statement of problem: it is not known whether endochondral and intramembranous bones have distinct biological characteristics. octacalcium phosphate (ocp), a hydroxyapatite precursor, has been reported to stimulate bone formation after being implanted in parietal bone defects of rats. purpose: the present study was designed to investigate the response of endochondral and intramembranous bones t...
