The theoretical and analyzed data incorporated in this article are related to the recently published research article entitled "Thermal degradation behaviour of nanoamphiphilic chitosan dispersed poly (lactic acid) bionanocomposite films" (http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2016.11.024) (A.K. Pal, V. Katiyar, 2016) [1]. Supplementary information and data (both raw and analyzed) are related to...

Film boiling on a horizontal elliptical tube immersed in external flowing nitrogen liquid is investigated in the present paper. The isothermal wall temperature is high enough to induce turbulent film boiling, and then a continuous vapor film runs upward over the surface. The high velocity of the flowing saturated liquid at the boundary layer is determined by potential flow theory. In addition, ...

Triangular enclosures are typical configurations found in attic spaces of residential as well as industrial pitched-roof buildings. Previous studies on airflow within such spaces have focused on the laminar range. A numerical study has been carried out for time-dependent, two-dimensional low turbulence natural convection of air contained in the attic of a pitched roof of triangular crosssection...

Different immunoassay-based methods have been devised to detect protein targets. These methods have some challenges that make them inefficient for assaying ultra-low-amounted proteins. ELISA, iPCR, iRCA, and iNASBA are the common immunoassay-based methods of protein detection, each of which has specific and common technical challenges making it necessary to introduce a novel method in order to ...

An ultrasensitive microRNA assay was developed with one-step loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) initiated by the target microRNA.

The methods of thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and differential scanning calorimettry (DSC) have been used to study the thermal decomposition of ammonium perchlorate (AP). TGA curves obtained under both isothermal and nonisothermal conditions show a characteristic slowdown at the extents of conversion, R ) 0.30-0.35. DSC demonstrates that in this region the process changes from an exothermic t...

Isothermal DNA amplification is an alternative to PCR-based amplification for point-of-care diagnosis. Since the early 1990s, the approach has been refined into a simple, rapid and cost-effective tool by means of several distinct strategies. Input signals have been diversified from DNA to RNA, protein or small organic molecules by translating these signals into input DNA before amplification, t...

In this article, failure and fracture mechanisms in an aluminum alloy (which has been used in diesel internal combustion engines), with and without ceramic thermal barrier coatings, have been investigated under isothermal and non-isothermal fatigue loadings. In this research, the base material is an aluminum-silicon-magnesium alloy and the thermal barrier coating includes a metallic bond coat l...

effects of ?-cyclodextrin, ?cd, on refolding of lysozyme was investigated at ph 12 employing isothermal titration calorimetry (itc) at 300k in 30mm tris buffer solution. ?cd was employed as an anti-aggregation agent and the heats obtained for lysozyme+?cd interactions are reported and analyzed in terms of the extended solvation model. it was indicated that there are two sets of identical and no...
