In this paper. (1) We determine the complex-valued solutions of the following variant of Van Vleck's functional equation $$int_{S}f(sigma(y)xt)dmu(t)-int_{S}f(xyt)dmu(t) = 2f(x)f(y), ;x,yin S,$$ where $S$ is a semigroup, $sigma$ is an involutive morphism of $S$, and $mu$ is a complex measure that is linear combinations of Dirac measures $(delta_{z_{i}})_{iin I}$, such that for all $iin I$, $z_{...

In the current study, we fit confirmatory bi-factor models to the items of the Autism Spectrum Quotient (AQ) and Autism Spectrum Quotient Short Form (AQ-S) in order to assess the extents to which the items of each reflect general versus specific factors. The models were fit in a combined sample of individuals with and without a clinical diagnosis of autism spectrum disorders. Results indicated ...

the present research has been conducted to investigate the soda and soda-anthraquiuone pulping from whole kenaf (v36). in this respect, anatomical characteristics of kenaf bast and core fibers as well as the soda and soda-aq pulp properties produced at four sodium hydroxide concentrations, namely 25, 30, 35 and 40 (g/lit), have been evaluated. the pulping results indicated that pulp yield and k...

Solar-driven photocatalytic production of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) requires only sunlight, oxygen, and water, making it a green sustainable alternative to conventional H2O2 processes. We present carbon dots (CDs) as new candidate for high-performance production. Owing the generation an excellent charge carrier presence various oxygen-containing functional groups, CDs showed outstanding capabili...

Amodiaquine (AQ) metabolism to N-desethylamodiaquine (DEAQ) is the principal route of disposition in humans. Using human liver microsomes and two sets of recombinant human cytochrome P450 isoforms (from lymphoblastoids and yeast) we performed studies to identify the CYP isoform(s) involved in the metabolism of AQ. CYP2C8 was the main hepatic isoform that cleared AQ and catalyzed the formation o...
