This work focuses on the comparison of degradation and mineralization clopyralid with electrochemically produced hydrogen peroxide (electro-H2O2), ozone (electro-ozonation) their mixture (electro-peroxone) points out important differences among performance oxidation technologies. Co-existence decreases concentration increases in bulk, because formation recombination hydroxyl radicals. Oxidation...

The glycogen was estimated in liver, cardiac and skeletal muscles during the recovery period after electro-shock. The supercompensation in the level of glycogen was observed in cardiac and skeletal muscles at 1 1/2 and 5 hrs respectively during the recovery period, after electro-shock. The liver glycogen level was lower than the control value after electro-shock at least upto 5 hrs of recovery ...

We report the observation of a biaxial nematic phase in a bent-core molecular system using polarizing microscopy, electro-optics, and dielectric spectroscopy, where we find that the biaxiality exists on a microscopic scale. An application of electric field induces a macroscopic biaxiality and in consequence gives rise to electro-optic switching. This electro-optic effect shows significant poten...

The dielectrophoretic cell separation and the underlying electro-hydrodynamics is studied in the light of a single biological particle in a simplified geometry of electrodes. We propose and test a hypothesis related to the electro-rotation and preferential motion of cells observed in experiments. This work investigates the scaling of the forces and displacements to test the hypothesis and attem...

Electro-spun polyethylene terephthalate (PET) fibrous mats are potential substrates for biotechnological and biomedical applications. In this regard, substrate characteristics including, fiber diameter, orientation and mechanical properties play an important role in controlling the interaction of substrate with biological entities. However, few studies reporting the preparation of electro-spun ...

We report a method to study electro-active defects in passivated electrodes. This method couples fluorescence microscopy and electrochemistry to localize and size electro-active defects. The method was validated by comparison with a scanning probe technique, scanning electrochemical microscopy. We used our method for studying electro-active defects in thin TiO2 layers electrodeposited on 25 μm ...

To study the efficacy of electro-acupuncture for the relief of labor pain, and to build a better understanding of how electro-acupuncture might influence the neuroendocrine system, 36 primiparas were randomly divided into an electro-acupuncture group and a control group. Assessments of pain intensity and degree of relaxation during labor were analyzed. The differences between the electro-acupun...

Particle-in-cell/Monte Carlo technique is used to simulate low pressure electro-negative and electro-positive plasmas at a frequency of 10 MHz. The potential, electric field, electron and ion density, and currents flowing across the plasma are presented. To compare the physical properties of the electro-positive gas with those of an electro-negative gas, the input voltage was decreased from 100...
