Relative Humidity Dependent Resistance Switching of Bi2S3Nanowires

Resistance of Aerosolized Bacterial Viruses to Relative Humidity and Temperature.

The use of aerosolized bacteriophages as surrogates for hazardous viruses might simplify and accelerate the discovery of links between viral components and their persistence in the airborne state under diverse environmental conditions. In this study, four structurally distinct lytic phages, MS2 (single-stranded RNA [ssRNA]), ϕ6 (double-stranded RNA [dsRNA]), ϕX174 (single-stranded DNA [ssDNA]),...

Appl. Microbiol. 10:431-435. 1962.-Because of the low toxicity of its breakdown product, propylene oxide (PO) vapor will play an increasingly important role in the preservation of foods. It is therefor...

Estimation of Evolution of Relative Humidity Distribution for Concrete Slabs

Realistic prediction of concrete shrinkage and creep requires the calculation of the distributions of relative humidity at various times. Although the distributions of the relative humidity can be computed by numerical methods from the differential equation for diffusion, simple prediction formulas can facilitate structural analysis. The purpose of this paper is to present a simple formula for ...

The Effect of Percentage of Remaining Hair Bred and Ambient Relative Humidity on Electrical Resistance of Cashmere Fiber

Among different types of controlling systems, the ON/OFF digital relative humidity control was used for measuring electrical properties of cashmere fibers to make the ambient relative humidity fixed. To achieve this goal the required hardware and software were designed and fabricated. The electrical resistance of fine and coarse hair cashmere fiber was measured by charge and discharge condenser...
