Controlled structures and properties of single-walled carbon nanotubes custom-produced by chemical vapor deposition method.
(2006)
Single walled carbon nanotubes (SWNT) are considered as one of the most promising nanomaterials for a large variety of applications that require SWNTs with controlled structures and properties, which is the main focus of ...
VIRAL ECOGENOMICS - MOLECULAR ANALYSIS OF A COSTA RICAN PLANT RNA VIRAL COMMUNITY
(2009)
RNA virus metagenome data characterization provides an unbiased picture of RNA viruses in natural environment. To test the hypothesis that plant viral infections are relatively specific for the viral-host interaction and ...
Surface investigations of the mechanism of single walled carbon nanotube growth by carbon monoxide disproportionation over a cobalt-molybdenum catalyst.
(2003)
To examine the validity of this hypothesis different catalyst formulations and reaction conditions have been used. These series of tests included the doping of the Co Mo catalyst with sodium, the substitution of molybdenum ...
Synthesis of polymer nanostructures via the use of surfactant surface aggregates as templates.
(2007)
The subject of this work is the synthesis of polymer nanostructures via the use of surfactant surface aggregates as templates, also termed Template Assisted Admicellar Polymerization (TAAP). The first chapter reviews some ...
MODIFICATION OF THE SMALL INTESTINAL SUBMUCOSA USING PLGA NANOPARTICLES FOR ENHANCED TISSUE REGENERATION: FROM IN VITRO TO IN VIVO MODELS
(2009)
Small intestinal submucosa (SIS) derived from porcine small intestine has been intensively studied for its capacity in repairing and regenerating wounded and dysfunctional tissues. However, SIS suffers from a large spectrum ...
NEW METHODS AND NEW PARADIGM TO DESIGN SENSOR NETWORKS FOR PROCESS PLANTS
(2009)
Due to economic reason, not every process variable can be measured by a sensor. The problem of optimum selection of sensor location is referred to as sensor network design problem (SNDP).
Experimental and computational analysis of the aerodynamics of melt blowing dies.
(2004)
An experimental and computational study of melt blowing jets and processes was done. Computational studies were done on three types of melt blowing jets: conventional annular, tapered annular and swirling. Conventional ...
Manganese tetraoxide based polyalkenoate cements.
(2006)
Polyalkenoate cements resulting from reaction between Mn3O4 with acrylic acid and poly(acrylic acid) have been analyzed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). This ...
STRUCTURE-FUNCTION ANALYSIS OF HUMAN ONCOSTATIN M
(2009)
Oncostatin M (OSM) is a pleiotropic cytokine that belongs to the interleukin-6 (IL-6) family of cytokines. These cytokines play crucial role in diverse biological events like inflammation, neuroprotection, hematopoiesis, ...
Characterization of hollow fiber properties during the melt spinning process.
(2000)
Substitution of hollow fibers for solid fibers would not only preserve the web properties (opacity and compression), but would actually improve the strength of each fiber. Hence, hollow fibers could be substituted for solid ...
