Micronucleus test on gas station attendants.

In the present study, the micronucleus test was applied in exfoliated cells of buccal mucosa to assess the mutagenicity risk associated with occupational exposure for gas station attendants. For each individual, 2000 exfoliated buccal cells were analyzed for micronucleus frequency. A highly significant difference was found between exposed and control groups. Likewise, a significant difference w...

Cosmic ray test station for ATLAS RPC

We describe the facility for RPC test with cosmic rays, designed and built at the laboratory of INFN and University of Naples. Trigger and tracking systems consist of a scintillator hodoscope and two drift chambers with track reconstruction resolution ofB400 mm: Trigger is provided by the twofold coincidence of scintillators covering a surface of 1 m: Two step motors move chambers synchronously...

High temperature and pressure electrochemical test station.

An electrochemical test station capable of operating at pressures up to 100 bars and temperatures up to 400 °C has been established. It enables control of the partial pressures and mass flow of O2, N2, H2, CO2, and H2O in a single or dual environment arrangement, measurements with highly corrosive media, as well as localized sampling of gas evolved at the electrodes for gas analysis. A number o...

Scheduling of Electric Vehicle Charging Station for profit maximization of Vehicles and Station in Uncertainty

Abstract: In this paper, the electric vehicle (EV) charging station scheduling process is designed to maximize the profit of EVs owners and the station operator in two steps. First, a complete model is proposed to formulate the problem of charging and discharging EVs at charging stations in one-day-ahead 24-hours. The purpose of the program is to increase the profits of EVs owners charging stat...
