By Monte Carlo simulations in the canonical ensemble, we have studied the magnetic anisotropy in Fe/Dy amorphous multilayers. This work has been motivated by experimental results which show a clear correlation between the magnetic perpendicular anisotropy and the substrate temperature during elaboration of the samples. Our aim is to relate macroscopic magnetic properties of the multilayers to t...

During flooding, the suspended sediment transport usually experiences a wide-range of dilute to hyper-concentrated depending on local flow and ground conditions. This paper assesses distribution for variety flows. Due differences between flows, linear-power coupled model is proposed integrate these considerations. A parameterised method combining size, Rouse number, mean concentration, depth pa...

Pre-sedimentation basins are among the most important elements of the conventional water treatment process. In pre-sedimentation basins, due to different velocity gradients, secondary and rotational flows are formed that will create short paths and increase dead and still flow zones as well as changes in the flow mixing. This will prevent laminar flow conditions for sedimentation and will reduc...

This study sought to use concentration-time-response surfaces show the effects of exposure toxic (semi-)metals on peroxidase activity in higher plants as a function exposure-concentration and exposure-time. Maize (Zea mays L.) seedlings (i.e., leaves roots) were exposed arsenic (as As3+) or aluminium Al3+) under hydroponic conditions, their biomass enzyme responses assessed at different concent...

Analysis of the length polymorphisms of short tandem repeats (STR) loci in the human genome has become a standard approach for comparative genotyping in many areas including disease research and diagnostics, parentage assessment, investigations of human diversity, and forensic science. The purpose of this study is to optimize the DNA concentration in ng/10 µL for amplification of DNA markers. A...

Effects of four cooking methods (microwave cooking, grilling, steaming and shallow fat frying) and reheating by microwave on volatile profile in S. commerson were evaluated. Thirty compounds were identified in GC-MS analysis of raw samples. The number of volatile compounds had increased to 36, 46, 45 and 45 compounds in microwave cooked, grilled, steamed and shallow fat fried samples, respectiv...

nano-sized drugs have better distribution than their identical forms. magnesium is the cofactor of various enzymes in lipid and glucose metabolism. in this study the effect of nano-magnesium oxide (nano-mgo) on glucose concentration and lipid profile in diabetes induced mice was evaluated in 21 laboratory mice. mice were divided randomly into three equal groups (control, treatment and placebo)....
