Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) widely occurs in organisms and tissues, and is produced and used as both a drug and dietary supplement. Increasing evidence of health benefits of orally administered CoQ10 are leading to daily consumption in larger amounts, and this increase justifies research and risk assessment to evaluate the safety. A large number of clinical trials have been conducted using a range of ...

Superlinear dose dependence of thermoluminescence (TL) and optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) has been reported for many materials. The theoretical explanation has been ascribed to competition of either traps or recombination centers, during the excitation stage or during the read-out phase. There has been an account in the literature on superlinearity of OSL associated with merely one tra...

We investigate the potential of quartz-based OSL-dating for application to heated sandy sediments that are closely associated with remains charcoal production (charcoal kilns). This is particularly relevant post-1650 CE features, where 14C-dating lacks resolution. first document general OSL characteristics using large aliquots sand-sized quartz. Results from procedural tests indicate laboratory...

The Amazonia biome hosts upland closed and open vegetation ecosystems, in which the current biogeographical patterns relate to evolution of physical landscape. Therefore, understanding origin timing substrates supporting different ecosystems is indispensable for better comprehension Amazonian biogeography. Here we used quartz optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) thermally transferred (TT-OSL...

INTRODUCTION This chapter concludes the model of internet consumer behavior by describing some key moderating variables such as gender, need for cognition (NFC) and optimum stimulation level (OSL)(Figure 1).

در این مقاله یک مدل ریاضی برای مسئله سیستم تولیدی همکارانه ساخت بر اساس سفارش با رعایت انصاف تخصیص بار‌های تولید طراحی شده است. اهداف اصلی مدل، کمینه‌سازی هزینه‌‌های کل و حداکثر استفاده از منابع به‌منظور عادلانه شرایط عدم­قطعیت کنترل پارامتر‌های غیرقطعی روش برنامه‌ریزی فازی ‌شده نتایج نشان می‌دهد افزایش نرخ عدم‌قطعیت، می­یابد. ازآنجاکه ظرفیت کارخانه‌ها ثابت است، مقدار تقاضا، هر کارخانه نیز می­ی...

To facilitate the research of mobile robot based odor source localization (OSL) and evaluate different strategies for the OSL, numerical simulation of odor plume in indoor ventilated environments is addressed. On the basis of the FLUENT software package, the 3-D wind field of an indoor ventilated environment is calculated using the Reynolds average approach, where the real wind velocity measure...

A formal specification method called RTOSL ('Real-Time Object Specification Logic') for the objectoriented approach is presented: We have extended the object specification logic OSL ([SernadasA et al. 92b]) so that real-time constraints can be included in a specification in an elegant way. Concepts of real-time temporal logic have been applied to this end. Characteristics of RTOSL (different fr...

This study presents preliminary results of research on pre-Angkorian canals near the ancient settlement of Angkor Borei in the southern Mekong delta of southern Cambodia. The canals have been mapped by aerial photograph interpretation and investigated in the field by hand auger drilling of two canal traces and trenching of one of these. Luminescence profiling through the canal infill successful...
