Evaporative drying of porous media is jointly controlled by external ( atmospheric) conditions and by media internal transport properties. Effects of different atmospheric potential evaporative demand on observed drying rates were studied in a series of la ...
Based on the ligand LAB the new heterobitopic ligands LAB2, LAB3, LAB4 and LAB5 have been designed and synthesised. The five ligands were designed to selectively form heterobimetallic complexes of composition LnLn'(L)36 when reacted with a pair of ...
(Figure Presented) How to get into films: Micropatterned poly(methacrylic acid) (PMAA) brushes are used as an ionotropic matrix for the fabrication of microstructured calcite thin films. The calcite films are an exact 3D replica of the PMAA brush matrix (s ...
Catalyst activity during the carbon nanotubes (CNTs) growth by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) is enhanced when water, a weak oxidizer, is introduced together with the carbon source. The height as well as the CNTs density can be controlled by fine-tuning t ...
This paper presents the application of a complete digital calibration methodology to the improvement of a Hall sensor-based current measurement microsystem. It is a step-by-step illustration of how generic calibration techniques and circuits can be used on ...
Sixteen polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) were screened for their ability to be directly cytotoxic to a cell line from the rainbow trout gill, RTgill-W1. Exposure times of 2 h or less were sufficient for direct cytotoxicity to be detected, which appe ...
In 2003, the Nobel Assembly at the Karolinska Institute has awarded the Nobel Prize in Medicine or Physiology to Paul Lauterbur and Peter Mansfield for their seminal discoveries concerning the development of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), a non-invasive ...
The calcium cycle, in particular carbonate dissolution, was analyzed in two deep eutrophic lakes, Lago di Lugano (288 m maximum depth) and Sempachersee (87 m) located in Switzerland. A box model approach was used to calculate calcite dissolution in the wat ...
TiO2-photocatalysis disinfection experiments were carried out with both E. coli in distilled water and natural water samples from the Cauca River (Cali, Colombia). The experiments performed with E. coli in distilled water showed no increase in cell concent ...
The first part of this laboratory study deals with heterogeneous reactions of bromine- and chlorine-containing species relevant to the atmosphere with solid model alkali salt substrates. The second part of this work treats the heterogeneous interaction of ...
