In this paper, three types of optical textured glass substrates were prepared at the glass/transparent conductive oxide interface using polydimethylsiloxane nanoimprint lithography to increase conversion efficiency dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). There textures: nanotexture, microtexture, and micro/nano double texture. terms characteristics, it was confirmed that reflectance all lower than ...

It has been shown that hypothyroidism may lead to delayed wound healing after experimental myocardial infarction (MI) in rats and increased infarct size in dogs. However, the long-term effect of hypothyroidism on left ventricular (LV) remodeling after MI has not been determined. Adult female Sprague-Dawley rats with and without surgical thyroidectomy (TX) were used in the study. Four weeks afte...

In this work, spherical Pt nanometer-scale particles supported on the poly (m-toluidine)/Triton X-100 film modified carbon nanotube paste electrode (Pt/PMT (TX-100)/MCNTPE) was used as a potent catalyst for electrooxidation of formaldehyde (HCHO) in both 0.5 M H2SO4 and 0.1 M NaOH solutions. The obtained results showed that utilization of TX-100 as an additive during the electropolymerization p...

Background: This cross sectional study was conducted to evaluate the effect of &gamma-rays and electron-beam irradiation with a commercial toxin binder-milbond-TX on the performance, feed components, and meat quality of Japanese quails challenged with aflatoxin B1. Methods: Overall, 168 One-d-old chicks (Japanese quails) were allocated to eight treatments with three replicates based on a com...

Introduction:  The  advent  of  dual-modality  PET/CT  scanners  has  revolutionized  clinical  oncology  by  improving lesion localization and facilitating treatment planning for radiotherapy. In addition, the use of  CT images for CT-based attenuation correction (CTAC) decreases the overall scanning time and creates  a noise-free  attenuation  map  (6map).  CTAC  methods  include  scaling,  s...
