We study the generation of harmonics from graphene under influence an artificial magnetic field, generated via bending a flake. show how Landau level structure induced by pseudomagnetic field breaks centrosymmetry graphene, thus allowing even harmonics. also that depending on impinging pulse duration, nonlinear signal does not only contain integer but its half-integer ones due to peculiar squar...

Objective—To investigate possible neurotoxic eVects in groups of aluminium pot room and foundry workers, aluminium welders, and a small group of workers exposed to aluminium in the production of flake powder. Methods—Exposure to aluminium was evaluated with aluminium concentrations in blood and urine as well as a questionnaire. The groups exposed to aluminium were compared with a group of mild ...

Whole-grain oats have been identified as a type of food that blunts blood glucose increase after a meal. However, processing of oats changes the physical characteristics of the grain, which may influence human glycaemic response. Therefore, the effect of different processes on acute postprandial glycaemic response, quantified using glycaemic index (GI) measurements, was investigated in a system...

The injectable composites were formulated from melt-derived 45S5 bioactive glass powder and gum tragacanth. The effect of tragacanth concentration (2 and 4 w/v%) and powder to liquid ratio (P/L= 1.5 to 2.5) on rheological properties, injectability, degradation, swelling, and bioactivity the composites was studied. With the increase of P/L ratio and tragacanth concentration, the force requ...

The influence of the particle size on magnetic behaviors of nickeloxide nanoparticles (NiO NPs) was reported. NiO NPs with a uniform particlesize were synthesized via a facile sol-gel method, and various sizes of NiO NPs(11, to 49 nm) were achieved by calcination at various temperatures (400, to 700°C). X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis revealed that increasing the calcinationtemperature increas...

Spherical MgO nanoparticles and Flake-like clay minerals modified with polyaniline (PAni) are applied in Matrimid in order to fabricate mixed matrix membranes (MMMs) having improved gas separation performance. The CO2 permeability, CO2/CH4 selectivity and CO2-induced plasticization pressure of MMMs are assessed at 4-30 bar feed pressure. The chemical structure, morphology and thermal properties...
