Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsResearch in the Improvement of Wettability of Micro-Structure in Patterned ElectrodepositionLi Guangyang, Wang Hong, Yuan Yang et al.Problem statement: The high aspect-ratio electrodeposition was widely used in the manufacture of non-silicon MEMS devices. The wetting of high aspect-ratio micro-structure in electrolyte was important to the uniformity of micro-structure. Approach: In this study, to enhance the wettability of micro-structures in electrolyte, the effect of Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate (SDS) and O2 plasma surface modification were discussed. Contact Angles (CA) … …Current Research in Nanotechnology, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 15 Jun 2011 · 7,275 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStochastic and Deterministic Mathematical Modeling and Simulation to Evaluate the Novel COVID-19 Pandemic Control MeasuresEva Gupta, Nand Jee Kanu, Amartya Munot et al.Background: In India, the novel Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19) epidemic has grown to 17,00000 cases and around 38,000 deaths up to 30th July, 2020. The impacts of the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic in India were studied using modified age-structured stochastic and deterministic mathematical models. Methods: A compartmental susceptible (S)-infected (symptomatic) (IS) infected (asymptomatic) (IN) recovered (R) i.e., … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 16, Issue 4 · 20 Nov 2020 · 8,456 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTribological Performance of Materials Under Bio-Three Body AbrasionJasem G. Alotaibi, Ako K. Omer, Nbhan D Salih, Belal F. YousifThis study aims to investigate the effects of seed grinding process on the tribological characteristics of components in agricultural machines. The objective is to conduct the the effect of third body presence such as seeds on the tribological behavior of agriculture machines and evaluate the fracture mechanism of the seeds under three body abrasion loading conditions. The work consists of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 1 · 14 Jul 2020 · 7,178 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIsolation and Physical Characterization of Hydrophobin-Like Proteins (HLP) from Aerial Conidia of Metarhizium Anisopliae Var. AnisopliaeD. S.B. Kiong, Choon Fah J. Bong, P. J.H. KingThe aim of this study was to isolate and physically characterized Hyrophobin-Like Proteins (HLP) from the aerial conidia of two local isolates of Metarhizium anisopliae var. anisopliae, namely, TA and LR2. The protein samples were isolated based on their insolubility in hot Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate (SDS). The SDS-insoluble proteins were then purified in cold 98% formic acid and performic acid. … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 29 Jan 2015 · 7,776 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUse of Surface Energy to evaluate Adhesion of Bituminous Crack Sealants to AggregatesEllie H. Fini, Imad L. Al-Qadi, Taher Abu-Lebdeh, Jean-Francois MassonProblem statement: The performance of bituminous sealants in the field is partly controlled by properties and strength of the sealant-aggregate interface. The thermodynamic work of adhesion represents energy required for reversible separation of the two materials at the interface. The study of fracture includes the energy required for both reversible and irreversible processes during separation. Excess of work of facture … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 13 Jul 2011 · 7,884 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordKnowledge Practice Gap Among Nurses Towards COVID-19 Patients’ Dead Body Care in a Tertiary Care HospitalGirraj Saini, Mahendra Singh, Prasan Kumar Panda et al.COVID-19 due to SARS-CoV-2 is a global pandemic that presents a serious challenge from many angles for healthcare professionals. The virus causes a potentially fatal disease that is easily transmitted among patients and caregivers, hence specific dead body care is required for such patients. Our study was conducted to identify knowledge, attitude, and practice regarding COVID-19 dead body care among … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 19, Issue 1 · 10 Mar 2023 · 5,756 accessesView PDF Cite
