Acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) was discovered in 1981 as an infectious disease of homosexual men transmitted by sexual intercourse. The human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) was soon discovered and shown to be the causative agent, and additional risk groups and modes of infection were identified. The virus could also be transmitted by blood transfusions and contaminated needles. HIV in...

The efficacy of iron(II) sulfide (FeS)-based autotrophic denitrification in simultaneous nitrogen and phosphorus removal from wastewater was studied with batch experiments. It was efficient at a wide pH range of 5-9, and temperature range of 10-40 °C. The concentrations of NH₄⁺-N, Mg²⁺ and HCO₃⁻ in the wastewater should be kept over 7.8, 0.24 and 30 mg L⁻¹ for efficient nitrate (NO₃⁻-N) reducti...

In 1965, after proposals seeking Science Development Program (SDP) grants had been made to the National Science Foundation by both CIT and WRU, there was increased pressure from various quarters (including the NSF) for the merger of the two institutions. Ultimately, the NSF granted $3.5 million each to CIT and WRU, essentially contingent on their eventual federation. Of this, a total of $2.6 mi...

Although various pharmacological treatments are available for persons suffering with positive psychotic symptoms, these symptoms often continue to occur even when medications are taken. Traditional psychosocial methods such as family therapy and cognitive-behavioral alleviate symptoms in this population, but interventions are often lengthy and difficult.
