Nanoparticles (NPs), particles having one or more dimensions below 100 nm, are currently being synthesized through chemical and physical methods on an industrial scale. However, these methods for the synthesis of NPs do not fit with sustainable development goals. NP synthesis, through chemical and physical methods, requires high temperatures and/or pressures resulting in high energy consumption...

Discrimination and identification experiments were performed for a vowel continuum (/i//I/-/e/) and two consonant continua (/ba/-/pa/and/ba/-/da/-/ga/). The results were interpreted in terms of a generalization of a theory of intensity resolution [N. I. Durlach and L. D. Braida, J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 46, 372-383 (1969) ] that makes precise the distinction between basic sensitivity (sensory-based ...

in  this  study,  amino  functional  groups  were  chemically  bonded  to  the  surface  of  newly synthesized  kit-6  mesoporous  magnetite  nanoparticles  (mmnps)  by  post-toluene  reflux synthesis method.  this method  treats  calcined mesoporous  nanoparticles with  the  functional organosilanes.  physical  and  chemical  structures  of  the  synthesized  mesoporous  magnetite nanoparticle...

This study aimed to investigate the effects of physical training, and different levels of protein intake in the diet, on the growth and nutritional status of growing rats. Newly-weaned Wistar rats (n=48) were distributed into six experimental groups; three of them were subjected to physical swim training (1 h per day, 5 d per week, for 4 wk, after 2 wk of familiarization) and the other three we...

Several novel methods, catalysts and reagents have been developed to improve organic synthesis. Synergistic effects between reactions, reagents and catalysts can lead to minor heats of reaction and occur as an inherent result of multicomponent reactions (MCRs) and their extensions. They enable syntheses to be performed at a low energy level and the number of synthesis steps to be drastically re...
