the purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of additives, poly(ethylene glycol) (peg) 1450, poloxamer 407, polyvinyl alcohol (pva) and sodium chloride in order to improve physico-chemical characteristics, encapsulation efficiency and in vitro release of bovine serum albumin, form poly(d,l-lactic-co-glycolic acid) (plga) microparticles prepared by the w/o/w solvent evaporation method...

In this paper we present a parameterized algorithm that solves the Convex Recoloring problem for trees in O(256k ∗ poly(n)). This improves the currently best upper bound of O(k(k/ log k)k ∗ poly(n)) achieved by Moran and Snir. © 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

The effect of specific oil surface (SOS) during pan frying of rapeseed oil on its thermal stability and antioxidant capacity (AC) was evaluated. Rapeseed oils with different oil layer heights (OLH = 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, and 2.5 cm) were heated on an electric frying pan coated with Teflon at 180 ± 10 °C until a selected end point of 25 % total polar compounds (TPC) was reached. The changes of che...

Ni(acac)2 catalyzes the four-component connection reaction of trimethylaluminium (or diphenylzinc), isoprene, aromatic aldehydes and p-anisidine in this order and provides (E)-1-aryl-1-(p-methoxyphenyl)amino-3-methyl-3-hexenes (or (E)-1-aryl-1-(p-methoxyphenyl)amino-3-methyl-5-phenyl-3-pentenes) selectively in good yield.

We study two variants of seeded randomness extractors. The first one, as studied by Goldreich et al. [8], is seeded extractors that can be computed by AC circuits. The second one, as introduced by Bogdanov and Guo [3], is (strong) extractor families that consist of sparse transformations, i.e., functions that have a small number of overall input-output dependencies (called sparse extractor fami...

In the title compound, [Fe(C(12)H(6)O(4))](n), the Fe(II) atom is coordinated by six O atoms from six symmetrically equivalent naphthalene-1,4-dicarboxyl-ate ligands in a strongly distorted octa-hedral geometry. These octa-hedra are connected via common edges into chains that elongate along the a axis, with Fe⋯Fe distances of 2.9712 (4) and 2.9724 (4) Å. The chains are linked via the naphthalen...
