The effect of cobalt precursor on the structure of Co supported multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) were studied by using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). MWCNTs were treated with a mixture of nitric and sulfuric acids and decorated with cobalt and/or cobalt oxides via aqueous impregnation solutions of cobalt nitrate or cobalt acetate followed by reduction in hydrogen. XPS was mainly ...

Background: To assess the oral health knowledge, attitude, practices and oral health status among urban and rural school teachers in and around Lucknow. Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted on 797 school teachers of rural and urban, lucknow using W. H.O Oral Health Survey (1997) to assess the knowledge, attitude, practices and oral health status. Descriptive analysis was...

OBJECTIVE To quantify per capita and aggregate medical expenditures and the value of lost productivity, including absenteeism and presenteeism, because of overweight, and grade I, II, and III obesity among U.S. employees. METHODS Cross-sectional analysis of the 2006 Medical Expenditure Panel Survey and the 2008 National Health and Wellness Survey. RESULTS Among men, estimates range from -$3...

obtained from heterocyclic carbaldehydes for the therapy of cancer, a major disease of our age.1,2 Hence, in our research new Schiff bases containing different functional groups were synthesized to contribute to that class of substances, which are now being tried as anti-cancer reagents. This report describes the crystal structure of a related compound. A summary of the key crystallographic inf...

We presented a new approach to calculating normal vectors to fluid interfaces in [JCP, 226:774–797, 2007 ], by advecting unit normals along with an interface. In this paper, we introduce an implementation of the method in an interfacial flow solver. The advected normals are used to compute the interface curvature for calculating the surface tension force, and for reconstructing the interface in...

This paper proves two theorems about economies with a finite number of infinitely lived agents who trade a complete set of one-period Arrow securities and several infinitely lived securities at each date, subject to short-sales constraints. The first theorem in the paper considers an equilibrium to an economy of this kind. It proves that there exists another economy with perturbed short-sales c...

MCAFEE, ROBERT D. AND WILLIAM LOCKE. Effects of certain steroids on bioelectric current of isolated frog skin. Am. J. Physiol. 2044): 797-0oo* I 96 I .--n-methyl-g cu-fluorohydrocortisone and hydrocortisone sodium succinate increase both the rate and duration and, therefore, total quantity of ion transported in the isolated short-circuited frog skin measured over a 24. hour period. The ion tran...
