matrix analysis of corrosion inhibition phenomena (macip), in which an inhibitor isconsidered as a point in a multi-dimensional virtual efficiency space, was performed on somepyridine derivatives. the needed molecular parameters such as homo and lumo energylevels, charge densities on hetero atom, dipole moment, heat of formation, and total energyvalues were obtained by means of semi-empirical q...

The genetic variability of the Brazilian physic nut (Jatropha curcas) germplasm bank (117 accessions) was assessed using a combination of phenotypic and molecular data. The joint dissimilarity matrix showed moderate correlation with the original matrices of phenotypic and molecular data. However, the correlation between the phenotypic dissimilarity matrix and the genotypic dissimilarity matrix ...

conclusions our underlying hypothesis is that recapitulating the three-dimensional early embryonic structure, in order to reproduce better in vitro the three-dimensional morphogenetic-like re-arrangements, would improve cells differentiation, when in vivo transplanted; moreover, it could be used as a simplified cancer disease model and reliable drug evaluation method as well. results the proces...

in this study, the effect of accelerated ripening with encapsulated protease and lipase on physiochemical properties such as fat and moisture, texture and microstructure of brined cheese was investigated. addition of lipase increases hardness by reducing fat globules diameter and increasing casein matrix junction. it also decreases brittleness by fat degradation which is responsible for plastic...

in the present paper, we introduce the sequence space [{l_p}(e,delta) = left{ x = (x_n)_{n = 1}^infty : sum_{n = 1}^infty left|  sum_{j in {e_n}} x_j - sum_{j in e_{n + 1}} x_jright| ^p < infty right},] where $e=(e_n)$ is a partition of finite subsets of the positive integers and $pge 1$. we investigate its topological properties and inclusion relations. moreover, we consider the problem of fin...

poly(styrene-co-butyl acrylate)/clay nanocomposites were synthesized via in situ atom transfer radical polymerization using activators generated by electron transfer in the presence of a montmorillonite ion-exchanged with mixed surfactants of dodecyl trimethyl ammonium bromide and vinyl trimethyl ammonium chloride. the living nature of polymerization is confrmed by occurrence of narrow molecula...
