Correction for 'Shell-isolated nanoparticle-enhanced Raman spectroscopy study of the adsorption behaviour of DNA bases on Au(111) electrode surfaces' by Bao-Ying Wen et al., Analyst, 2016, DOI: 10.1039/c6an00180g.

The oxidation state at the interfaces of Nb/Al–AlOx/Pb junctions is discussed. Conductance–voltage curves below and above the superconducting temperature suggest tunneling conduction, while X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy shows the existence of a thin AlOx layer at the Nb/Al interface. We demonstrate that at the usual 10 7 Torr range of base pressures in the sputtering chamber, this is due to ...

Local field potential (LFP) recordings within the brain have become an important tool used by neuroscientists to make inferences about the activity of a population of cells near an electrode. Each passing year analysis of LFPs in neuroscience seems to bring important new insights on the possible workings of networks in the brain to produce behavior (Buschman and Miller 2007; Canolty et al. 2006...

In this paper we introduce the SpeakCorrect system which is a Computer Aided Pronunciation Training (CAPT) system for native Arabic students of English. The system is designed with optimized performance for the target users group. It is L1 dependent system and only the frequent pronunciation errors of native Arabic speakers are examined. Several adaptation techniques such as Speaker Adaptive Tr...

ronment, the determination of trace Hg(II) is important. Atomic absorpt ion and inductively coupled plasma spectroscopic methods are currently widely used. Many publications on this subject focus on electrochemical methods (anodic and potentiometric stripping voltammetry) at a variety of electrode materials. Glassy carbon, goldplated glassy carbon, screen-printed carbon, platinum (Pt) and gold ...

background: electrocoagulation is a technique involving the electrolytic addition of coagulating metal ions directly from sacrificial electrodes. these ions coagulate with turbidity agents in the water, in a similar manner to the addition of coagulating chemicals such as alum and ferric chloride, and allow the easier removal of the pollutants. purpose of this study was to conduct experimental i...
