High performance sulfonic acid doped polyaniline–polystyrene blend ammonia gas sensors
(
Springer Nature
, 2016 , Article)
In this work, we present a method of preparation and sensing measurement of four camphorsulfonic acid (CSA) doped polyaniline–polystyrene blends (PANI–PS), where PANI is obtained by dispersion polymerization and blending ...
Surface layer modification of ion bombarded HDPE
(
Elsevier
, 2004 , Article)
Press-moulded, high density polyethylene (HDPE) samples were subjected to ion bombardment and effects of the modification studied. He+ ions of energy 100 keV or Ar+ ions of energy 130 keV were applied in the range of dose ...
Reduced erbium-doped ceria nanoparticles: One nano-host applicable for simultaneous optical down- and up-conversions
(
Springer Nature
, 2014 , Article)
This paper introduces a new synthesis procedure to form erbium-doped ceria nanoparticles (EDC NPs) that can act as an optical medium for both up-conversion and down-conversion in the same time. This synthesis process results ...
Improved electrical conductivity of carbon/polyvinyl alcohol electrospun nanofibers
(
Hindawi
, 2015 , Article)
Carbon nanofibers (CNFs) gained much interest in the last few years due to their promising electrical, chemical, and mechanical characteristics. This paper investigates a new nanocomposite composed of carbon nanofibers ...
Temperature and electric field effects on the dielectric dispersion of modified polyvinyl chloride
(
Elsevier
, 2003 , Article)
The effect of electric field on the dielectric dispersion of modified polyvinyl chloride (PVC) has been investigated. The applied direct current (DC) field strength was ranging from 0 to 104 V cm−1. The complex permitivity ...
SARS-CoV-2 infection triggers more potent antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) responses than mRNA-, vector-, and inactivated virus-based COVID-19 vaccines
(
Wiley
, 2024 , Article)
Neutralizing antibodies (NAbs) are elicited after infection and vaccination and have been well studied. However, their antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) functionality is still poorly characterized. Here, we ...
Comprehensive analysis of the maxillary esthetic zone for immediate implant placement using cone beam computed tomography: A study of 352 maxillary images
(
Elsevier
, 2024 , Article)
Statement of problem:
Previous studies have examined the maxillary esthetic zone for immediate implant placement, but these studies had small sample sizes and did not investigate multiple parameters.
Purpose:
The ...
Heat Adaptation and Nutrition Practices: Athlete and Practitioner Knowledge and Use
(
Human Kinetics Publishers Inc.
, 2022 , Article)
Purpose: To survey elite athletes and practitioners to identify (1) knowledge and application of heat acclimation/acclimatization (HA) interventions, (2) barriers to HA application, and (3) nutritional practices supporting ...
Responses to a 5-Day Sport-Specific Heat Acclimatization Camp in Elite Female Rugby Sevens Athletes
(
Human Kinetics Publishers Inc.
, 2022 , Article)
Purpose: To describe the physiological (resting core temperature, exercising heart rate, and sweat rate) and psychophysical (rating of perceived exertion, thermal sensation, and thermal comfort) responses to a short-term ...
Core Body Temperatures in Intermittent Sports: A Systematic Review
(
Springer Nature
, 2023 , Article)
Background: Hyperthermia (and associated health and performance implications) can be a significant problem for athletes and teams involved in intermittent sports. Quantifying the highest thermal strain (i.e. peak core body ...
