Treatment and Disposal Methods of Concentrate Stream of Seawater Reverse Osmosis- A Review

The exponentially multiplying population of the world demands increasing freshwater resources. Thelimited resources comprising less than 3% of the earth’s water resources are getting polluted at an alarming rate. To deal with this situation...

Antioxidant and antimicrobial activities in the different extracts of Caspian saffron, Crocus caspius Fisch & C. A. Mey. ex Hohen.

Nowadays it is very desirable to investigate and discover new antibacterial and antioxidant agents from natural products and medicinal plants. The current study was conducted to examine the antimicrobial and antioxidant properties of an e...

Potential applications of peptide nucleic acid in biomedical domain

Abstract Peptide Nucleic Acid (PNA) are DNA/RNA synthetic analogs with 2‐([2‐aminoethyl] amino) acetic acid backbone. They partake unique antisense and antigene properties, just due to its inhibitory effect on transcription and translation;...

Gas Transport in Shale Nanopores with Miscible Zone

Based on the results of molecular dynamics simulation, in a gas-water miscible zone, the velocity profiles of the flowing water film do not increase monotonously but increase first and then decrease, which is due to the interaction between ...

Mathematics for Physics

An engagingly-written account of mathematical tools and ideas, this book provides a graduate-level introduction to the mathematics used in research in physics. The first half of the book focuses on the traditional mathematical methods of ph...

Mathematical Morphology

Mathematical Morphology allows for the analysis and processing of geometrical structures using techniques based on the fields of set theory, lattice theory, topology, and random functions. It is the basis of morphological image processing, ...

Ethanolic extract of black soldier fly (Hermetia illucens L.) larvae for wound healing in mice (Mus musculus L.)

The Black Soldier Fly (Hermetia illucens L.) or BSF is one of a group of insects that has a length of 15-20 mm originating from America. The larvae of the BSF has a high protein content (44.26%), which has great potential in treating wound ...

Mathematics Teacher Noticing

Mathematics Teacher Noticing is the first book to examine research on the particular type of noticing done by teachers---how teachers pay attention to and make sense of what happens in the complexity of instructional situations. In the mids...

Determinantal Sieving

We introduce determinantal sieving, a new, remarkably powerful tool in the toolbox of algebraic FPT algorithms. Given a polynomial $P(X)$ on a set of variables $X=\{x_1,\ldots,x_n\}$ and a linear matroid $M=(X,\mathcal{I})$ of rank $k$, bot...

Realism in Mathematics

Abstract Many mathematicians understand their work as an effort to describe the denizens and features of an abstract mathematical world or worlds. Most philosophers of mathematics consider views of this sort highly problematic, largely due ...

Mathematics of Computation

Beginning with the January 1960 issue, the title of Mathematical Tables and other Aids to Computation has been changed to Mathematics of Computation.The new name was unanimously adopted by the Editorial Committee in order to reflect the bro...

A game-theoretic sequential three-way decision using probabilistic rough sets and multiple levels of granularity

Abstract The sequential three-way decision accepts additional information at each level and makes more accurate definite decisions with less uncertainty. This process can also be extended to two-way classification with the finer-grained inf...

Exploring the formation mechanism of off-flavor of irradiated yak meat based on metabolomics

Irradiation's effects on quality, volatile compounds, and differential metabolites of yak meat were studied. Irradiation dose at 3 kGy had no effect on yak meat quality, however irradiation dose at 5 kGy resulted in yak meat quality deterio...

Adjunctive antimicrobial photodynamic therapy in the nonsurgical treatment of periodontitis: an umbrella review

Abstract Aim Antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) has been proposed as a locally acting adjunct to subgingival instrumentation for periodontitis. This umbrella review aimed to synthesize and critically appraise systematic reviews of ad...
