Force microscopy enables a variety of approaches to manipulate and/or modify surfaces. Few of those methods have evolved into advanced probe-based lithographies. Oxidation scanning probe lithography (o-SPL) is the only lithography that enables the direct and resist-less nanoscale patterning of a large variety of materials, from metals to semiconductors; from self-assembled monolayers to biomole...

Introduction: Antibiotics as a type of pharmaceutical compounds are widely used in modern medicine and veterinary industries. They enter the environment in different ways, including agricultural runoff, direct discharge of urban wastewater treatment or human waste, direct disposal of medical, veterinary industrial waste and to name but a few. Antibiotics have been able to influence the microbia...

Novel advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) show great promise for application in many wastewater treatment areas. AOPs are an emerging technology that may be employed for specific goals in wastewater treatment. These AOPs utilize the very strong oxidizing power of hydroxyl radicals to oxidize organic compounds to the preferred end products of carbon dioxide and water. Advanced oxidation has been...

background: polycystic ovary syndrome (pcos) is a common disorder of infertility which affects more than 100 million women. it is characterized by chronic anovulation, hyper androgenism and obesity. pcos is also associated with oxidative stress changes. objective: here, we aimed to investigate the level of antioxidants and oxidative stress in iranian women with pcos as a predictive factor for c...

ultrasonic technology as an innovative technology may be used for water and wastewater treatment for pollution removal. this technology acts as an advanced oxidation process. application of this technology leads to the decomposition of many com­plex organic compounds to much simpler compounds during physical and chemical compounds during cavitation proc­ess. in this article review, some applica...
