Does Biosynthetic Silver Nanoparticles Are More Stable With Lower Toxicity than Their Synthetic Counterparts?

Control of size and shape is a challenge in nanoparticle synthesis. Synthetic and biosynthetic (both extracellular and intracellular) methods are used to prepare silver nanoparticle (SNP). In this study, the behavior of three strains of Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) was investigated in the presence of silver nitrate intra- and extracellularly. S. aureus strains biosynthesized SNPs intracell...

Do Characters Abuse More Than Words?

Although word and character n-grams have been used as features in different NLP applications, no systematic comparison or analysis has shown the power of character-based features for detecting abusive language. In this study, we investigate the effectiveness of such features for abusive language detection in user-generated online comments, and show that such methods outperform previous state-of...
