in the present work, we report the synthesis of binary nano metal oxides such as zinc /copper oxide via novel dry synthetic methods such as thermal decomposition of oxalate precursor. the synthesis route involves facile solid-phase mechanochemical activation of a physical mixture of simple copper/zinc salts and oxalic acid, followed by calcination of the as-ground oxalate precursors at 450◦c. x...

results all variables reached a peak at 1 minute post-jump. salivary alpha-amylase, galvanic skin responses and heart rate did not return to basal value at 90 minutes post-jump, while cortisol returned to basal value at 90 minutes post-jump. conclusions this evidence indicates that parachute jumping is accompanied by a dissociation of sns and hpa response patterns in novice parachutists, showin...

introduction: photon attenuation in tissues is the primary physical degrading factor limiting both visual qualitative interpretation and quantitative analysis capabilities of reconstructed single photon emission computed tomography (spect) images. the aim of present study was to investigate the effect of attenuation correction on the detection of activation foci following statistical analysis w...

cellulose wastes of a wood and paper factory were used to produce activated carbon. several chemical agents under various conditions were used for production of activated carbon and hence their adsorption properties have been evaluated. in addition the effect of process parameters such as raw material, chemical agent concentration, impregnation ratio, carbonization temperature, carbonization ti...

objective(s): so far, extensive research has been conducted on the preparation and characterization of nano ceramics based on ca-si by sol- gel method and bioactivity was evaluated, but, a few researches have paid attention to the preparation of materials by mechanical activation (ma). the aim of this study was the preparation of akermanite nano powder by mechanical activation method and bioact...

fertilization is triggered by changes in intracellular calcium concentration. in mammals, these transients in ooplasmic calcium concentration take the form of repetitive spikes, so called calcium oscillations (ca2+-oscillations). these oscillations are important for relieve of meiotic arrest and to induce all the other events of oocyte activation. although a surface mediated way of oocyte activ...
