La0.75Sr0.25Cr0.5Mn0.5O3-δ-Ce0.8Sm0.2O1.9 as composite electrodes in symmetric solid electrolyte cells for electrochemical removal of nitric oxide
Symmetric solid electrolyte cells with La0.75Sr0.25Cr0.5Mn0.5O3-δ (LSCM)-Ce0.8Sm0.2O1.9 (SDC) composite electrodes are employed for nitric oxide (NO) removal. The LSCM powders are synthesized and the cells with LSCM-SDC composite electrodes are fabricated successfully. The results show that moderate SDC addition in LSCM electrode improves the cell performance due to the expansion of three phase bo
Transport dynamics of droplet impact on the wedge-patterned biphilic surface
Droplet impact on biphilic surfaces with a wettability contrast has been intensively studied in recent years. In this work the effects of tilting and apex angles on droplet transport dynamics after impacting on a wedge-patterned biphilic surface at low Weber numbers were investigated experimentally. The biphilic surface was fabricated by applying a hydrophobic polymer coating on a bare silicon sur
The molecular landscape of ETMR at diagnosis and relapse
Embryonal tumours with multilayered rosettes (ETMRs) are aggressive paediatric embryonal brain tumours with a universally poor prognosis1. Here we collected 193 primary ETMRs and 23 matched relapse samples to investigate the genomic landscape of this distinct tumour type. We found that patients with tumours in which the proposed driver C19MC2–4 was not amplified frequently had germline mutations i
Non-ambulatory children and young people with cerebral palsy; different exercise effects from static versus dynamic standing
Non-ambulatory children with cerebral palsy; effects on passive range of motion and spasticity in the hip after four month of static compared to dynamic standing exercise
Refining the role of phenology in regulating gross ecosystem productivity across European peatlands
The role of plant phenology as a regulator for gross ecosystem productivity (GEP) in peatlands is empirically not well constrained. This is because proxies to track vegetation development with daily coverage at the ecosystem scale have only recently become available and the lack of such data has hampered the disentangling of biotic and abiotic effects. This study aimed at unraveling the mechanisms
Impact of the III-V/Ge nucleation routine on the performance of high efficiency multijunction solar cells
This paper addresses the influence of III-V nucleation routines on Ge substrates for the growth of high efficiency multijunction solar cells. Three exemplary nucleation routines with differences in thickness and temperature were evaluated. The resulting open circuit voltage of triple-junction solar cells with these designs is significantly affected (up to 50 mV for the best optimization routine),
Lipid oxidation inhibition capacity of plant extracts and powders in a processed meat model system
A meat model system was used for screening lipid oxidation inhibiting capacity of diverse horticultural plant materials. In the model, heme-containing sarcoplasmic proteins from the meat water-phase were homogenized with linoleic acid and thiobarbituric reactive substances (TBARS) were measured. 23 Plant materials were investigated at three high (50, 100, and 200 ppm) concentrations and five plant
Quantifying the effects of species traits on predation risk in nature : A comparative study of butterfly wing damage
Evading predators is a fundamental aspect of the ecology and evolution of all prey animals. In studying the influence of prey traits on predation risk, previous researchers have shown that crypsis reduces attack rates on resting prey, predation risk increases with increased prey activity, and rapid locomotion reduces attack rates and increases chances of surviving predator attacks. However, eviden
Developing chlorine-based antiseptic by electrolysis
The use of Alcohol-based antiseptics is efficient and approved, however it has some limitations. This paper examined the possibility of using hypochlorite water as a chlorine-based antiseptic for handwashing in public buildings and healthcare facilities. The electrolysis method was used, which produces Hypochlorous acid (HOCl) from mixing drinking water with small amounts of sodium hydroxide. Hypo
Quantitative imaging of potassium release from single burning pulverized biomass char particles
The release of potassium from single burning pulverized wheat straw char particles was quantitatively measured using laser-induced photofragmentation fluorescence (LIPF). The char particles were prepared in a drop tube furnace at 1000 °C from wheat straw particles with sizes in the range 224–250 µm. Subsequently, the char particles were injected upward into a hot flue gas flow produced by a premix
Can we extend the indication for sentinel node biopsy in vulvar cancer? A nationwide feasibility study from Sweden
Background: In squamous cell vulvar cancer, sentinel node biopsy is accepted as standard treatment in well-defined patient groups and has reduced surgical morbidity considerably. Currently, due to the lack of evidence, it cannot be offered to patients with tumors of 4 cm diameter or greater or with multifocal tumors, or in local recurrences. Primary objective: This study is primarily a pilot and f
The forgotten land use class : Mapping of fallow fields across the Sahel using Sentinel-2
Remote sensing-derived cropland products have depicted the location and extent of agricultural lands with an ever increasing accuracy. However, limited attention has been devoted to distinguishing between actively cropped fields and fallowed fields within agricultural lands, and in particular so in grass fallow systems of semi-arid areas. In the Sahel, one of the largest dryland regions worldwide,
Variability and predictors of weekly pesticide exposure in applicators from organic, sustainable and conventional smallholder farms in Costa Rica
Objective: Estimates of pesticide exposure among applicators from low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) are scarce, and exposure assessment methods are sometimes costly or logistically unfeasible. We examined the variability in weeklong pesticide exposure among applicators in Costa Rica and its predictors.Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional survey among 221 pesticide applicators from organi
Experimental and modeling study of nitric oxide formation in premixed methanol + air flames
Validation and further development of models for alcohol combustion requires accurate experimental data obtained under well-controlled conditions. To this end, measurements of nitric oxide, NO, mole fractions in premixed laminar methanol + air flames have been performed using saturated laser-induced fluorescence, LIF. The methanol flames have been stabilized at atmospheric pressure and initial gas
From population to production : 50 years of scientific literature on how to feed the world
How to feed the world is a vigorously debated question, but the extent to which possible solutions receive attention in the scientific literature has not been studied. Using textual analysis, we analyse 12,640 research articles to quantify how this discourse evolved over the last 50 years, distinguishing between a focus on three potential levers: total food production, per capita food demand, and
Information transfer and medication safety for elderly patients in care transitions
Introduction: Accurate discharge summaries counteract drug-related problems due to insufficient information transfer in care transitions, but require optimal transfer and use. Careful follow-up is often essential after hospital discharge, for example when it comes to pain management in elderly patients; a common and challenging task in primary care. Aims: To assess the transfer and use of the disc
Microscopic insight into the reversibility of photodegradation in MAPbI3 thin films
Whether optoelectronic devices based on metal-halide perovskite semiconductors will become a commercially viable technology will be determined by their intrinsic and operational stability. Recent results indicate there is some reversibility of perovskite degradation in thin films and devices, although mechanistic insight into the processes driving degradation and recovery are still scarce. We here
