background: blood donation safety is one of the basic goals of the organization of blood transfusion in the world. self-exclusion and failed options are additional screening tests to routine diagnostic tests which is performed to detect the transmitted infection through blood or blood products. the purpose of this study was to investigate the efficacy of these systems on the improvement of bloo...

Using density-functional theory with the local-density approximation and the generalized gradient approximation we compute the energy barriers for surface diffusion for Ag on Pt~111!, Ag on one monolayer of Ag on Pt~111!, and Ag on Ag~111!. The diffusion barrier for Ag on Ag~111! is found to increase linearly with increasing lattice constant. We also discuss the reconstruction that has been fou...

in this paper, a novel method of producing bi-metallic alloy nanoparticles at low temperatures using hydrogen bombardment of thin films, deposited on glass substrates, is introduced. optical and morphological characteristics of the nanoparticles were extensively studied for various conditions of plasma treatment, such as plasma power density, temperature, duration of hydrogen bombardment, thick...

background: haemonchosis has a negative effect on the farming industry throughout the world, especially in the tropic and sub-tropic countries. the present study was carried out to differentiate haemonchus species from its main hosts in iran, including sheep, goat and camel.   methods: the identification took place based on the morphometrics of the spic-ules and molecular characters. two hundre...

Landing to explore beneath the silvery reflection of moon, unusual air oxidation silver was investigated, granting access homoleptic anion [AgIII(CF3)4]− (1). The crew compartment Lunar Lander illustrates structure 1 mimicking heraldic Occitan Cross, symbol Occitania, where this work developed. Compound reacts with 1,10-phenanthroline leading organosilver(III) compound [(phen)AgIII(CF3)3], whic...

Antigen (Ag) targeting is an efficient way to induce immune responses. Ag is usually coupled to an antibody (Ab) specific for a receptor expressed on dendritic cells (DCs), and then the Ag-anti-receptor is inoculated with an adjuvant. Here we report that targeting Ag to a receptor expressed on both B cells and DCs, the TLR orphan receptor CD180, in the absence of adjuvant rapidly induced IgG re...

Localized surface plasmon resonances (LSPR) generated in a particle-film nanocavity enhance electric fields within nanoscale volume. LSPR can also decay into hot carriers, highly energetic species that catalyze photocatalytic reactions molecular analytes located close proximity to metal surfaces. In this study, we examined the intensity of field (near-field) and properties plasmonic nanocavitie...
