The generation of hole array architectures with, for example, square or triangular patterns (see Figure) is achieved by controlling the spatial definition indentation sites development in anodic porous alumina. technique has potential fabrication two-dimensional photonic crystals, carbon nanotubes with cross section.
Micromechanical and electronic devices are a potential application for nanohoneycomb-structured diamond films, which were produced by oxygen plasma etching with porous anodic alumina films as masks to give highly ordered hexagonal hole arrays high aspect ratios. The refractive index transparency of these structures make them suitable photonic bandgap materials.
Electrochemical properties of nanoporous honeycomb diamond electrodes in an aqueous electrolyte were investigated. Highly ordered structures fabricated by etching the microwave plasma‐deposited films using oxygen plasma. The exhibited a wide electrochemical potential window (ca. 2.5V), similar to unetched film. From impedance measurements, capacitance film was found be (geometric area), which is ca. 200 times greater than that for unetched, as‐deposited surface. results obtained with...
Nicotinic acetylcholine receptor subtype α4β2 is considered important in the regulation of attention and memory, cholinergic degeneration known as one pathophysiology Alzheimer's disease. Brain amyloid-β protein deposition also a key pathological marker Recent imaging has shown many cognitively normal subjects with deposits, indicating missing link between cognitive decline. To date, relationship nicotinic burden not been elucidated vivo. In this study we investigated relation availability...
<ns4:p>Background Hitherto, BDNF levels in humans have been primarily measured serum and/or plasma where these are readily measurable, but reflect the content of blood platelets. By contrast, previous attempts to measure accessible human body fluids such as saliva complicated by a lack sensitivity specificity ELISAs (see Discussion). Recently, suitability highly sensitive ELISA assay was validated using mouse and conventional fail detect BDNF. In this report, we demonstrate that extremely...
Nanoporous boron-doped diamond films with highly ordered pore structures and various dimensions, fabricated by oxygen plasma etching of polished polycrystalline through porous alumina masks, were characterized using electrochemical impedance measurements. The exhibited wide potential windows (2.46-2.70 V), although somewhat less than that for the as-deposited (3.04 V) because surface damage due to treatment. A film diam 400 nm depth 3 μm a 400-fold increase in capacitance comparison an film....
Research on rotating cavitation progressed during the development of a liquid oxygen (LOX) turbopump for LE-7 engine H-II rocket. In some ranges numbers, supersynchronous shaft vibrations were observed in LOX main pump inducer. From comparison with results our previous studies it was concluded that such caused by A simple modie cation inducer upstream housing almost completely extinguished vibrations. Some characteristics have been fairly well elucidated. However, we not able to fully...
A rapid and highly sensitive CE immunoassay method integrating mixing, reaction, separation, detection on-chip is described for the measurement of alpha-fetoprotein (AFP), a liver cancer marker in blood. Antibody-binding reagents, consisting 245-bp DNA coupled anti-AFP WA1 antibody (DNA-WA1) HiLyte dye-labeled WA2 (HiLyte-WA2), AFP-containing sample were filled into adjacent zones chip channel defined by laminar flow lines microfluidic device using pressure-driven flow. The geometry was thus...
Based on the length of tip cavitation as an indication cavitation, we focused effect thermodynamics performances and instabilities in inducer. Comparison cavity liquid nitrogen (76K 80K) working fluid with that cold water (296K) allowed us to estimate strength thermodynamic cavitations. The degree was found increase length, particularly when extended over throat blade passage. In addition, occurred both increased. Subsynchronous rotating appeared water. experiment using nitrogen, temperature...
An immunoassay using DNA-coupled antibody for bound/free separation in a liquid-phase binding assay format is described. Anti-alpha-fetoprotein monoclonal was conjugated with DNA, mixed alpha-fetoprotein (AFP), and incubated, then 1 muL of the mixture applied to capillary electrophoresis on microchip. The DNA molecule antibody-DNA conjugate DNA-conjugated immune complex peak were detectable fluorophotometrically intercalator dye within 90 s, whereas Alexa-labeled detected as broad slower...
A case of agenesis the left internal carotid artery associated with an aneurysm anterior communicating which developed acute onset subarachnoid hemorrhage due to its rupture is presented. The anomaly was demonstrated on angiogram and confirmed at operation for aneurysm. absence foramen lacerum detected axial view skull suggested congenital nature anomaly. Fifteen cases (including our own) total unilateral or bilateral arteries intracranial aneurysms were collected from literature. Nine these...
Cavitation in cryogenic fluids has a thermodynamic effect because of the thermal imbalance around cavity. It improves cavitation performances turbomachines due to delay cavity growth. The relationship between and instabilities, however, is still unknown. To investigate influence on rotating appeared turbopump inducer, we conducted experiments which liquid nitrogen was set at different temperatures (74 K, 78 83 K) with focus length. At higher numbers, supersynchronous occurred critical length...
1) It was shown that Sepedonium ampullosporum DAMON produces rugulosin, skyrin, and chrysophanol. 2) Skyrin emodin were found to be produced by Penicilliopsis clavariaeformis SOLMS-LAUBACH along with penicilliopsin. 3) On oxidation selenium dioxide, penicilliopsin directly converted into skyrin.
