Effect of nanoparticles on heat capacity of nanofluids based on molten salts as PCM for thermal energy storage.

Nanoscale research letters

Chieruzzi M, Cerritelli GF, Miliozzi A, Kenny JM.
PMID: 24168168
Nanoscale Res Lett. 2013 Oct 29;8(1):448. doi: 10.1186/1556-276X-8-448.

In this study, different nanofluids with phase change behavior were developed by mixing a molten salt base fluid (selected as phase change material) with nanoparticles using the direct-synthesis method. The thermal properties of the nanofluids obtained were investigated. These...

We retrospectively examined 3579 records of human immunodeficiency virus infected tuberculosis (TB) patients diagnosed from January 2009 to June 2013 in 55 TB treatment facilities in Burundi, to demonstrate whether improvement of combined cotrimoxazole preventive therapy and antiretroviral therapy...

Adsorption kinetics of organophosphonic acids on plasma-modified oxide-covered aluminum surfaces.

Langmuir : the ACS journal of surfaces and colloids

Giza M, Thissen P, Grundmeier G.
PMID: 18630938
Langmuir. 2008 Aug 19;24(16):8688-94. doi: 10.1021/la8000619. Epub 2008 Jul 17.

Tailoring of oxide chemistry on aluminum by means of low-pressure water and argon plasma surface modification was performed to influence the kinetics of the self-assembly process of octadecylphosphonic acid monolayers. The plasma-induced surface chemistry was studied by in situ...

Cotton dust exposure and self-reported respiratory symptoms among textile factory workers in Northwest Ethiopia: a comparative cross-sectional study.

Journal of occupational medicine and toxicology (London, England)

Daba Wami S, Chercos DH, Dessie A, Gizaw Z, Getachew A, Hambisa T, Guadu T, Getachew D, Destaw B.
PMID: 29636789
J Occup Med Toxicol. 2018 Apr 03;13:13. doi: 10.1186/s12995-018-0194-9. eCollection 2018.

BACKGROUND: Cotton dust induced respiratory disorders are dramatically increased over the globe, especially the problem is serious in developing countries. Respiratory symptoms, such as cough, phlegm, wheezing, shortness of breath, chest tightness, chronic bronchitis, and byssinosis are common among...

Testicular microlithiasis in a boy with X-linked adrenal hypoplasia congenita.

Annals of pediatric endocrinology & metabolism

Serbis A, Tsinopoulou VR, Mouzaki K, Kotanidou EP, Giza S, Galli-Tsinopoulou A.

X-linked adrenal hypoplasia congenita (AHC) is a rare disorder that usually presents clinically as adrenal insufficiency in early infancy. It is caused by mutations in the NR0B1 gene which is located on the short arm of chromosome X (Xp21)....

Will Quantitative Proteomics Redefine Some of the Key Concepts in Skeletal Muscle Physiology?.

PMID: 28248211
Proteomes. 2016 Jan 11;4(1). doi: 10.3390/proteomes4010002.

Molecular and cellular biology methodology is traditionally based on the reasoning called "the mechanistic explanation". In practice, this means identifying and selecting correlations between biological processes which result from our manipulation of a biological system. In theory, a successful...

Contact Angle and Adhesion Dynamics and Hysteresis on Molecularly Smooth Chemically Homogeneous Surfaces.

Langmuir : the ACS journal of surfaces and colloids
