In this study we compared the biological reactivity of PM3.3 with those of carbon black (CB) and respirable silica particles, monitored by in vitro hemolytic potential and morphological alterations, in order to evaluate the correlations between the different physico-chemical characteristics of the three types of particulate and their biological effects. Carbon black and silica particles were us...

Zanthoxylum nitidum (Roxb.) DC (Rutaceae), is a large shrub, and its root is used traditionally in North-East India for toothache, stomachache, fever, rheumatism, paresis, boils and as an insecticide and pesticide. Present study has been undertaken to determine the necessary pharmacognostical standards for evaluating the crude plant material. Various investigations like organoleptic or morpholo...

The plant Coldenia procumbens Linn. is used commonly in Indian system of medicine for various ailments. The present paper deals with detailed pharmacognosy of the leaf of coldenia procumbens Linn. and includes its Macro/Micro morphological (vein islet, vein termination numbers and stomatal index) anatomical characters, Physico chemical standards such as ash values, extractive values, crude fibr...

Microscopic and physico-chemical methods were used for a comprehensive surface characterization of different mechanically modified stainless steel surfaces. The surfaces were analyzed using high-resolution confocal microscopy, resulting in detailed information about the topographic properties. In addition, static water contact angle measurements were carried out to characterize the surface hete...

Examination by scanning electron microscopy of erythrocytes from three cases of microangiopathic haemolytic anaemia demonstrated the presence of adherent cells. Although in some cases this appeared to be due to a thin strand, presumably fibrin, between the erythrocytes, in most instances there was intimate contact and this was invariably associated with damage to the red cell surface membrane. ...

A literature analysis of sources on synthesis methods and their influence the structural-morphological, physico-chemical, electrochemical properties graphene graphene-like structures was carried out. It established that these have a clear dependence method, starting materials, composition medium.
 The main ways changing graphene's physico-chemical electrical are changes in method condition...
