ABSTRACT This study was conducted to investigate the effect of selective feeding habits on the quality of the ingested diet and the effect of feed restriction on the selectivity and behavior of goats in feedlots. Differe...

The genetic improvement of soybean cultivars over the years has focused on increasing the yield capacity and tolerance to some abiotic and biotic factors, such as drought, diseases, and pests. However, during the transfe...

Abstract In this paper, a novel broadband high-selectivity stacked filtering antenna with multiple radiation nulls is proposed. The antenna consists of a short-circuited stepped impedance feeding line and two U-shaped st...

In reversed-phase liquid chromatography (RPLC), the retention of weak acids and bases is a sigmoidal function of the mobile-phase pH. Therefore, pH is a key chromatographic variable to optimize retention and selectivity....

Integrated optical signal processors have been identified as a powerful engine for optical processing of microwave signals. They enable wideband and stable signal processing operations on miniaturized chips with ultimate...

A non-invasive method for the detection of glucose is sought by millions of diabetic patients to improve personal management of blood glucose over a lifetime. In this work, the synergistic advantage of combining plasmoni...

Abstract Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) and microplastics (MPs) are certain types of persistent plastic contaminants that are a cause of concern to both the ecosystems and human health. The nanotechnologies o...

IntroductionThe emergence of multidrug-resistant bacteria, particularly vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE), represents a critical threat to global public health. Therefore, the development of novel therapeutic strate...

The scientific literature on the electrochemical conversion of CO2 on silver and silver-based cathodes in aqueous solutions and nonaqueous media has been analyzed. It has been shown that the most problematic issues regar...

Nickel salts of Keggin heteropolytungstates with the general formula NixAyW12−yO39or40 (A = Si/P) were synthesized and studied as bulk catalytic materials or supported ones by deposition on modified and functionalized ...

Background: Peripheral nerve blockade provides effective analgesia with fewer side effects than general anesthesia. Adjuvants, such as clonidine and dexmedetomidine, enhance block quality and duration, with dexmedetomidi...

The increasing release of greenhouse gases (GHGs), particularly CO2, continues to drive global warming and highlights the need for effective mitigation technologies. In this study, porous nanostructured cellulose acetate...

Abstract The cyclic five-membered disulfide 1,2-dithiolane, known for its moderate reactivity and ease of preparation, holds significant promise as a recognition unit in probe design and drug development. However, potent...

Shape-controlled microstructures (triangles and urchin-like) of Ni were synthesized using polyol synthesis in the presence/absence of capping agent (polyvinilpyrrolidone, PVP). Direct visualization of crystal structure a...

For vivid, immersive overlay of virtual images onto background scenes in augmented reality (AR) applications, it is crucial for the display element to achieve controllability of spectral selectivity and transmittance lev...

Reactive oxygen species (ROS, ·OH, ·OOH, and O₂) are ubiquitous in urban environments and may significantly accelerate asphalt pavement aging, yet their interactions with asphalt components remain poorly understood. ...

It was aimed to evaluate a variety of conventional and emerging CO2-selective adsorbents, considering their use in a five-step VSA (Vacuum Swing Adsorption) system for flue gas capture. In most works, porous materials sy...

Near-surface molecular-beam mass spectrometry (ns-MBMS) is a highly sensitive and non-destructive method for temporal monitoring of catalytic conversions on solid surfaces, yet not widely applied in heterogeneous catalys...

Sustainable development requires both CO2 emission reduction and management of existing greenhouse gases. Utilizing CO2 as a substrate in light-assisted catalytic reactions is promising, particularly with metal-organic f...

Accurate attenuation coefficient measurements are able to display the nature of selectivity in an image. The methods used to measure the attenuation coefficient are Monte Carlo probability and linear regression models. T...

ABSTRACT The objective of this study was to evaluate the apparent selectivity of sheep in marandu palisadegrass (Urochloa brizantha cv. Marandu) pastures with four heights at the beginning of the deferment period (15, 25...

Heterogeneous photocatalysis using TiO2 is a non-selective technique used for the degradation of organic molecules. Controlling the morphology of TiO2 has recently been considered one of the important approaches for cont...

Abstract Background Nanodelivery represents a promising strategy to enhance pesticide efficacy while reducing associated environmental risks. Mesoporous silica nanospheres (MSNs) can serve as effective nanocarriers but i...

Weed control in the sesame crop (Sesamum indicum L.) is a fundamental practice that ensures high grain yield. Choosing adequate control methods is a crucial step to reduce costs and reach success in weed management. Amon...
