queous film-coating processes can influence many quality aspects of the final coated product, including coated-tablet moisture content, surface roughness, gloss, coating efficiency, and coating uniformity. Colorcon’s aqueous tablet-coating formulations must be capable of meeting these and other customer requirements in different application environments around the world using various types of c...

The enrichment of groundwater and rivers by nutrients (nitrogen and phosphorus compounds) and their consequences is one of the most severe problems across the world. Transfer of nutrients from different sources into the environment causes eutrophication of surface waters, nitrate accumulation in groundwater, and others. Domestic wastewater is important nitrogenous and phosphorous source. Among ...

Working memory (WM) training has been increasingly popular in the last years. Previous studies have shown that individuals with intellectual disabilities (ID) have low WM capacity and therefore would benefit by this type of intervention. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of WM and cognitive training for individuals with ID. The effects reported in previous studies have varied ...

We study the asymptotic behavior of the appropriately scaled and possibly perturbed spectral measure μ̂ of large random real symmetric matrices with heavy tailed entries. Specifically, consider the N ×N symmetric matrix YσN whose (i, j) entry is σ( i N , j N )xij where (xij , 1 ≤ i ≤ j < ∞) is an infinite array of i.i.d real variables with common distribution in the domain of attraction of an α-...

Functional ANOVA models are considered in the context of generalized regression, which includes logistic regression, probit regression and Poisson regression as special cases. The multivariate predictor function is modeled as a speci ed sum of a constant term, main e ects and interaction terms. Maximum likelihood estimates are used, where the maximizations are taken over suitably chosen approxi...

in this paper we examine the effect of the oil volatility, consumer price index (cpi) and industrial production on the stock market return in tehran stock exchange (tse). we used seasonal data in period 1378-1390 and auto regressive distributed method (ardl) for the short-term and long-term relationship between the variables. as results of research indicate, we find that there is positive short...

Soil organic C (SOC) and total soil N (TSN) sequestration estimates are needed to improve our understanding of management influences on soil fertility and terrestrial C cycling related to greenhouse gas emission. We evaluated the factorial combination of nutrient source (inorganic, mixed inorganic and organic, and organic as broiler litter) and forage utilization (unharvested, low and high catt...

Research has demonstrated that asking people questions about a behaviour can lead to behaviour change. Despite many, varied studies in different domains, it is only recently that this phenomenon has been studied under the umbrella term of the question-behaviour effect (QBE) and moderators of the effect have been investigated. With a particular focus on our own contributions, this article: (1) p...

The present study demonstrates accumulation and distribution of heavy metals (Fe, Cr, Cd, Pb & Cu) in cultivated soil and vegetables, and its potential implication to health risk via consumption of contaminated vegetables. Deposition of atmospheric metals results significant enrichment of metal contents (Pb=1.6, Cu=1.4 & Cd=15.9) in cultivated soil. Elevated metal content in soil facilitate hig...
