The thriving terror activity is a menace to our society. To mitigate this, there dire need of upgraded and innovative analytical techniques for forensic analysis explosives. complexity in the matrix, restrictions sample quantity ambiguity data interpretation are different challenges that scientist face. solution these problems lies upgradation extraction technique, screening technique & con...

The SSRT setup gives smart access to test various properties of explosive materials and requires only little substance quantities. Unlike the standardized SSRT, we studied bulge development from blast different amounts PETN (200–1300 mg). corresponding aluminum blocks was evaluated with help a profilometer (Keyence VR-5200). This device, which measures volume dents using offset structured light...

Phylogenetic comparisons of three nuclear DNA gene regions (nrDNA(ITS), 4-coumarate: CoA ligase, abscisic acid-insensitive 3) and a chloroplast region (petN-psbM) show that the Western Hemisphere cypresses (Hesperocyparis) is a well-supported clade quite separated from the Eastern Hemisphere cypresses (Cupressus). Based on these new data and previous data, a new genus, Hesperocyparis, is erecte...

The aim of this experiment is to identify related genes for human umbilical mesenchymal stem cells transformation into nervous cells. After the human umbilical mesenchymal stem cells were treated with neuronal conditioned medium (NCM) for 9 days, the gene expression groups are compared to those only treated with DMEM. The related genes for cell cycles, the human umbilical mesenchymal stem cells...

Sequence data from four gene regions (nrDNA, petN-psbM, trnD-trnT, trnS-trnG, 3,705 bp) revealed that junipers from the southern mountain ranges of Iran are very diverse. The combined NJ tree (3,705 bp) showed strong support for the distinct nature of J. excelsa, J. polycarpos, J. p. var. turcomanica, and J. p. var. seravschanica. The samples from NW Iran are J. polycarpos and samples from NE I...

By comparison of the Proteus mirabilis HI4320 genome with known lipopolysaccharide (LPS) phosphoethanolamine transferases, three putative candidates (PMI3040, PMI3576, and PMI3104) were identified. One of them, eptC (PMI3104) was able to modify the LPS of two defined non-polar core LPS mutants of Klebsiella pneumoniae that we use as surrogate substrates. Mass spectrometry and nuclear magnetic r...

an optical system has been redesigned and used to measure detonation velocity as a function of condensed explosive density for rdx, hmx, petn. these measurements are then used to determine and fine tune parameters appearing in the bkw (beker-kistiakowsky-wilson) equation of state for gases at extremely high pressures. steady state form of conservation equations along with the bkw state equation...

The application of single-particle aerosol mass spectrometry (SPAMS) to the real-time detection of micrometer-sized single particles of high explosives is described. Dual-polarity time-of-flight mass spectra from 1000 single particles each of 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT), 1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazinane (RDX), and pentaerythritol tetranitrate (PETN), as well as those of complex explosives, Compo...

The performance of density functional theories (DFT) in predicting structural parameters for six conventional energetic materials (EM) over various degrees of compression was examined for a wide range of pressures. The systems studied were nitromethane, 1,3,5,7-tetranitro-1,3,5,7-tetraazacyclooctane (HMX), cyclotrimethylenetrinitramine (RDX), 2,4,6,8,10,12hexanitrohexaazaisowurzitane (CL-20), 2...
