Prior research suggests that children younger than age 3 or 4 do not understand that an agent may be deceived by an object's misleading appearance. The authors asked whether 14.5-month-olds would give evidence in a violation-of-expectation task that they understand that agents may form false perceptions. Infants first watched events in which an agent faced a stuffed skunk and a doll with blue p...

ZrO2 @g-C3N4 photocomposite has been prepared from nanoparticles and g-C3N4 nanosheet using methanol via the ultrasonic method. The was characterized XRD, TEM, EDX, DRS, FTIR, XPS techniques compared with pure g-C3N4. A comparative study between photocatalytic performance of nanocomposite material used to degrade indigo carmine (IC) dye in an aqueous suspension developed. experimental photodegr...

A 50-year-old Caucasian gentleman presented with a oneyear history of a gradually enlarging pigmented lump on the right forearm. On examination there was a 1 cm blue-purple nodule, which was hard in consistency (Figure 1). A mobile dermal cystic component was palpated after lateral pressure. Further dermoscopic examination revealed a homogeneous blue-purple pigmentation surrounded by a subtle b...

UNLABELLED PREMISE OF THE STUDY Differences in color form a major component of biological variation, and quantifying these differences is the first step to understanding their evolutionary and ecological importance. One common method for measuring color variation is segment classification, which uses three variables (chroma, hue, and brightness) to describe the height and shape of reflectanc...

Blue-emitting heteroleptic aluminum(III) bis(2-methyl-8-quinolinolate)phenolate complexes were synthesized. A tunable, blue-to-green emission is achieved by attaching electron-withdrawing modulators to the emisssive quinaldinate ligand. The electronic nature of modulator substituents attached to the position of the highest HOMO (highest occupied molecular orbital) density is used to modulate li...

Indigo Carmine (IC) is a synthetic dye that might promote irritations, vomiting, and diarrhea when orally consumed in high concentrations. Copper dangerous heavy metal tends to accumulate organisms' cells as pollutant. Hyperproduction of IC accumulation copper water could cause an environmental problem must be adequately addressed. Kaolin found abundant on Bangka Island. Based XRD analysis, Isl...
