a new carbazole- containing polymer has been synthesized for further photophysical studies. efficient synthesis of the substituted methyl methacrylate has been accomplished via microwave assisted synthesis of 1 - chloro - 4-carboxy -5,6, 7, 8- tetrahydrocarbazole followed by further steps, such as reduction of the 4-substituted methyl carboxylate, dechlorination of the ring and at last, the rea...

Microwave (MW) antenna is a key element in microwave ablation (MWA) treatments as the means that energy delivered focused manner to tumor and its surrounding area. The results rise temperature lethal level, resulting cell death zone. delivery of hence success MWA closely dependent on structure antennas. Therefore, three design criteria, such expected zone pattern, efficiency delivery, minimizat...

A simple, mild and high efficient procedure for one pot three component synthesis of 2-amino 4-H chromene derivatives was studied. The reaction was performed in water using aryl aldehydes, malononitrile and resorcinol, phloroglucinol or naphthole in the presence of N-methyl D-glucamine (Meglumine) as a green high efficient catalyst. The reaction was studied in thermal, microwave (MW) and ultras...

We report the successful manufacture and characterization of a microwave resonant cylindrical cavity made of bulk MgB2 superconductor (Tc ≈ 38.5 K), which has been produced by the Reactive Liquid Mg Infiltration technique. The quality factor of the cavity for the TE011 mode, resonating at 9.79 GHz, has been measured as a function of the temperature. At T = 4.2 K, the unloaded quality factor is ...

The effects on orange juice batch pasteurization in an improved pilot-scale microwave (MW) oven was evaluated by monitoring pectin methyl-esterase (PME) activity, color, carotenoid compounds and vitamin C content. Trials were performed on stirred orange juice heated at different temperatures (60, 70, 75, and 85 degrees C) during batch process. MW pilot plant allowed real-time temperature contro...

Over the years, due to rapid technological progress, radiation from man-made sources exceeded that of natural origin. There is a general concern regarding a growing number of appliances that use radiofrequency/ microwave (RF/MW) radiation with particular emphasis on mobile communication systems. Since nonthermal biological effects and mechanisms of RF/MW radiation are still uncertain, laborator...

INTRODUCTION Few studies have assessed the tolerability and efficacy of irreversible electroporation (IRE) in the treatment of Child-Pugh B (7/8) patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Based on its mechanism of action, we hypothesized that IRE would be superior to microwave (MW) ablation and compared the liver tolerance and ablation success rates of these therapies in Child-Pugh B patien...

A resonance-induced change in the resistivity of the surface state electrons (SSE) exposed to the microwave (MW) radiation is observed. The MW frequency corresponds to the transition energy between two lowest Rydberg energy levels. All measurements are done with electrons over liquid He in a temperature range 0.45−0.65 K, in which the electron relaxation time and the MW absorption linewidth are...

MnO2 and Co3O4 are identified as two highly MW active catalysts for the degradation and eventual mineralization of trace amounts of the toxic pollutant dye IC in water. The degradation is much faster compared to identical conventional heating conditions suggesting that the MW effect is not just thermal. ‘Specific effects’ and ‘athermal effects’ of MW also contribute to the degradation of the po...

Insects and pests constitute a major threat to food supplies all over the world. Some estimates put the loss of food grains because of infestation to about 40% of the world production. Contemporary disinfestation methods are chemical fumigation, ionizing radiation, controlled atmosphere, conventional hot air treatment, and dielectric heating, that is, radio frequency and microwave energy, and s...
