microbial electrolysis cell (mec) is one of the promising and cutting-edge technologies for generating hydrogen from wastewater through biodegradation of organic waste by exoelectrogenic microbes. in the mecs, the operational parameters, such as applied voltage (eap), anode surface area, anode-cathode distance, and n2/co2 volume ratio have a significant impact on the hydrogen yield and producti...

background: the values of embryonic stem cell and cloning are evident. production of clone from embryonic stem cells can be achieved by introduction of stem cell into a tetraploid blastocyst. tetraploid blastocyst can be produced in vitro by electrofusion of 2-cell embryos. objective: the aim of this study was to assess the effect of different voltages and durations on fusion rate of bovine 2-c...

introduction: the value of embryonic stem-like cells in cloning is obvious. production of cloned animals can be achieved by introduction of these cells into a tetraploid embryo. tetraploid embryo is used as a feeder for development of embryonic stem-like cells and can be produced in vitro by electro-fusion of 2-cell embryos. the aim of this study was to ass,essthe effect of voltage alteration a...

buthotus schach is one of the dangers scorpion in iran that belong to the buthidae family. toxins are existing in venom scorpion, modulate the ion channels by blocking or opening the pore of the channel or by altering the voltage gating and useful as pharmacological tools. in the present study, we investigated the effect of venom and its obtained fractions by gel filtrations on electrophysiolog...

in this paper, plug-in fuel cell electric vehicle (pfcev) is considered with dual power sources including fuel cell (fc) and battery energy storage. in order to respond to a transient power demand, usually supercapacitor energy storage device is combined with fuel cell to create a hybrid system with high energy density of fuel cell and the high power density of battery. in order to simulate the...

recently, special type of fuel cells has been developed that operates in a dead end mode. working in this condition, the dead-end fuel cell is supplied withhydrogen almost at the same rate of consumption. it is noteworthy to mention thatall of the water transport mechanisms have been considered in this simulation.water accumulation that is directly proportional to the cell current is of a great...

In this paper, a series Z-source inverter based on switched inductors cell is proposed for the first time. This inverter is able to increase the voltage gain in comparison to the conventional Z–source inverters in additon to solve the ST (shoot-through) state’s problems. In this inverter, the value of voltage gain is increased by increasing the number of used diodes and inductors in the switche...
