A large amount of studies focuses on aquatic diatoms’ ecology and their use in the assessment of water quality. Little is known about terrestrial diatoms’ ecological behaviour and sensitivity to
The overall efficiencies of screen printed monocrystalline Si solar cells are limited by electrical losses across the Si-metallization interface. The process of metallization affects the emitter and
Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry (SIMS ) is an extremely powerful technique for analysing surfaces, owing in particular to its excellent sensitivity , high dynamic range , very high mass resolution ,
Many real-world multi-objective optimization (MOO) problems rely on computationally expensive simulators of industrial processes and require solutions within a limited time budget. In this context,
The influence of short term (7-day) exposure of male rats to the brominated flame retardant hexabromocyclododecane (HBCD) was studied by investigation of the liver proteome, both in euthyroid and
In the present work, sodium alginate (SA), low methoxyl pectin (PEC) and κ-carrageenan (κ-CAR) were evaluated for their intragastric structuring ability by means of light and dynamic oscillatory
Neuromelanin (NM) is a compound which highly accumulates mainly in catecholamine neurons of the substantia nigra (SN), and is contained in organelles (NM-containing organelles) with lipid bodies and
For the design of components made of ceramic materials, a failure probability based on extended multiaxial Weibull theory is used. In the present paper, this failure probability is used as objective
