A review of the authors’ research works on Variable-Angle Spectroscopy (VASE) graphene-based films is presented. The interaction graphene oxide (GO) with magnetron-sputtered metals a promising area. VASE optical models GO thin deposited titanium (Ti), silver (Ag) and gold (Au) are discussed. Moreover, properties nanoplatelet (GNPS) reduced (RGO) stabilized Poly(Sodium 4-Styrenesulfonate) (PSS) ...

The volatile components in single-flowered and double-flowered Chinese narcissus were identified by headspace-solid phase microextraction (HS-SPME) coupled with GC and GC/MS. Changes in aroma during the vase-life (days 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6) of two samples were also studied. A total of 35 compounds were identified, of which all were present in single-flowered and 26 in double-flowered samples....

Large Sample Neutron Activation Analysis (LSNAA) was applied to perform non-destructive elemental analysis of a ceramic vase. Appropriate neutron self-shielding and gamma ray detection efficiency calibration factors were derived using Monte Carlo code MCNP5. The results of LSNAA were compared against Instrumental Neutron Activation Analysis (INAA) results and a satisfactory agreement between th...

the aim of this paper was to assess the effect of catechol (ch), as a peroxidase inhibitor, and 8-hydroxyquinoline citrate (hqc), as a bacterial inhibitor, on keeping the quality of gerbera jamesonii cv. hongyan cut flowers, known to be limited by vascular occlusion. blockage in the stem xylem vessels of cut gerbera was studied using light and scanning electron microscope. the results showed th...

Suitable selection of cultivars, is one of the important determinant factors that affects on quantity and quality of bulb flowers at the climate of Iran. In order to, introducing superior cultivars of gladiolus for cultivation in temperate regions of Iran, the experiment was carried out in a complete randomized block design (CRBD) in three replications with five cultivars of gladiolus including...
