Low temperature molten salts have variety of applications in organic synthesis, catalytic processing, batteries and electrode position due to their air and water stability. They have wide potential window for their applications in voltage and temperature and hence there is a possibility to deposit metals which could not be deposited from aqueous electrolytes. Our aim and scope of our research w...

Thermal power stations using pulverised coal as fuel, generate large quantity of ash as waste by product, which poses dual problem of environment and disposal. Flyash is a versatile material with many possible applications such as land filling and in land reclamation of low lying areas. An experimental investigation has been carried out to study the behaviour of compacted ash overlying sand dep...

Dense deposit disease (DDD) and C3 glomerulonephritis (C3GN) are widely recognized subtypes of C3 glomerulopathy. These ultra-rare renal diseases are characterized by fluid-phase dysregulation of the alternative complement pathway that leads to deposition of complement proteins in the renal glomerulus. Disease triggers are unknown and because targeted treatments are lacking, progress to end sta...

Red cells collected and washed apparently under identical conditions may not yield a deposit of the same density. A 5 per cent, or 3 per cent, suspension made from the deposit will consequently differ fronn day to day. The minimum haemolytic dose of the complement obtained therefore is not comparable on different days. Besides, with a suspension thicker than usual an M. H. D. is obtained which ...

Objective(s): Hypercholesterolemia is a common metabolic disorder in developing and developed countries and is associated with the increased rates of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Statin therapy could reduce cholesterol synthesis as well as progression of CKD. Diversity between statins causes variety in pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics and also their pleiotropic e...

A novel numerical modelling framework coupling physics-based model equations and image-based input parameters is developed to simulate the behaviour of soluble lead flow battery when reticulated vitreous carbon (RVC) electrodes are used. Experimental results presented validate model. Open-source software OpenImpala used predict macro-homogeneous properties RVC from computed tomography scans var...

The adjustment of pesticide dose rates according to canopy size and leaf area density is not encouraged by current label formulations. However, experimental evidence shows that the application of a constant dose per unit ground area consistently results in average foliar deposits that are inversely proportional to the leaf area index (LAI) of the crop. Several methods for dose rate adjustment h...

DALE, V. H. 1989. Wind dispersed seeds and plant recovery on the Mount St. Helens debris avalanche. Can. J. Bot. 67: 1434-1441. Seed dispersal and plant establishment were monitored for 4 years on the debris avalanche created by the 1980 eruption of Mount St. Helens. The number of plants on the deposit increased over time to a high of almost 2 plants/m 2 by 1983. The number of species per 250-m...
