zno and mn-zno nano powders were prepared by the sol-gel auto combustion method. the products were characterized by x-ray diffraction (xrd), energy dispersive analysis of x-ray (edx) and scanning electron microscopy (sem). structural and morphological properties of nano particles were investigated and the average crystalline size of zno and mn-doped zno was obtained 44 and 51 nm, respectively. ...

The ability of the activated carbon prepared from Eichornia Crassipes to remove Reactive Magenta B and Reactive Turquoise Blue dyes from aqueous solution has been carried out as a function of contact time, dose (0.1-0.60 mg/50ml for Magenta B and 0.25-2.0 mg/50ml for Turquoise Blue), pH (2-10) and concentration (25, 50, 75, 100mg.L). An amount of 0.6 g of the adsorbent could remove 56.0% of the...

In order to obtain a compound stain to differentiate between mast and plasma cells, it was necessary to find dyes which provided a distinct colour contrast between the two types of cell. The aqueous acetic Alcian blue method (McManus and Mowry, 1960) stained mast cells, but also other tissue elements. Using Alcian blue at a pH less than 10 (Johnson and Helwig, 1963) the mast cells stained brill...

Preterm jaundiced infants were treated by phototherapy with a new turquoise fluorescent lamp. This was more effective in reducing plasma total bilirubin in relation to light irradiance than the ubiquitously used blue fluorescent lamp.

Inhibitory effects have been reported when a target is preceded by a cue of the same color and location. Color-based inhibition was found using red and blue nonisoluminant stimuli (Law et al., 1995). Here we investigate whether this phenomenon depends on the chromatic subsystem involved by employing isoluminant colors varying along either the violet-yellow or purple-turquoise cardinal axis. Exp...

The first step in communicating color is to name it. The second step is color semiotics. The third step is introducing structure in the set of colors. In color education at all levels, this structure often takes the form of formulæ, like red + green = yellow, or turquoise + red = black. In recent times, Johannes Itten’s color theory and its associated color wheel have been very influential, mos...

BACKGROUND Glossina palpalis palpalis (G. p. palpalis) is one of the principal vectors of sleeping sickness and nagana in Africa with a geographical range stretching from Liberia in West Africa to Angola in Central Africa. It inhabits tropical rain forest but has also adapted to urban settlements. We set out to standardize a long-lasting, practical and cost-effective visually attractive device ...
