For the first time, the present study removes ions of mercury, in the form of Hg (I) and Hg (II) ions, from aqueous solutions by adsorbing them onto titanium dioxide nanoparticles. The effects of various parameters, such as solution's initial pH, temperature, sorbent dosage, initial mercury concentration, and contact time have been examined on the adsorption process. The experimental results ha...

This study compared the therapeutic efficacy of levofloxacin, ornidazole and alpha tocopherol combination and prostaglandin F2α (PGF2α) in longstanding cases of endometritis and evaluated their impact on Interleukin-6 (IL-6) and Interleukin-10 (IL-10) transcript level in peripheral blood leukocytes. Eighteen endometritic crossbred Jersey cows were randomly al...

IN THE NEOCORTEX, NEURONAL NITRIC OXIDE (NO) SYNTHASE (NNOS) IS ESSENTIALLY EXPRESSED IN TWO CLASSES OF GABAERGIC NEURONS: type I neurons displaying high levels of expression and type II neurons displaying weaker expression. Using immunocytochemistry in mice expressing GFP under the control of the glutamic acid decarboxylase 67k (GAD67) promoter, we studied the distribution of type I and type I...

The use of functional programming languages in the first course at many universities is well-established and effective. Invariably, however, students must progress to study object-oriented programming. This article presents how steps this transition have been successfully implemented Seton Hall University. developed methodology builds on students' experience with type-based design acquired thei...
