Growth of isolated axial heterojunction nanowires by a solution phase growth process is reported. The dumb-bell shaped nanowires contain two silver telluride sections at the extremes joined by a tellurium section. Reaction of silver nitrate with tellurium NWs in aqueous solution at a molar ratio of 1 : 1 leads to the formation of amorphous partially silver reacted Te NWs. Low temperature (75 C)...

Myasthenia gravis (MG) is an autoimmune disease mediated by auto-antibodies against the neuromuscular junction. The thymus has an important role in the pathogenesis of MG because most of the patients have thymic pathology and thymectomy (TE) can reduce the severity of the disease. In the present study, the frequency of Th17 and Tc17 cells were studied in MG patients (pre and 6 months post-TE) a...

Background: Chemotherapy or irradiation is associated with impaired fertility. The aim of this study was to investigate the possible protective role of testosterone enanthate (TE) on the proliferative activity, plasma testosterone level and morphometry of epithelial cells of seminal vesicles in busulfan-induced spermiotoxicity. Materials and Methods: Sprague- Dawley rats were divided into 4 gro...

let tx be the full transformation semigroups on the set x. for an equivalence e on x, let te(x) = {α ∈ tx : ∀(x, y) ∈ e ⇔ (xα, yα) ∈ e}it is known that te(x) is a subsemigroup of tx. in this paper, we discussthe green's *-relations, certain *-ideal and certain rees quotient semigroup for te(x).

The effect of intelligent semi-active thermal exchange-fuzzy controller in structural rehabilitation by attenuating seismic responses of structural systems is investigated. In the suggested control system, MR dampers and sensors are employed as a semi-active controller. Resultant control forces of MR damper are administrated by providing external voltage supply, during the earthquakes and high ...

The structure of liquid Ge15Te85, Ge25Te75 and Ge33Te67 alloys has been studied by neutronand X-ray diffraction. Datasets obtained by the two techniques have been modelled simultaneously with the reverse Monte Carlo simulation method. As a result, the first coordination numbers and nearest neighbour distances for the studied alloys were estimated. On the base of the experimental data, Ge-Ge bon...
