Abstract Developing versatile, scalable, and durable coatings that resist the accretion of matters (liquid, vapor, and solid phases) in various operating environments is important to industrial applications, yet has proven challenging.Here, we report a cellular coating that imparts liquid-repellence, vapor-imperviousness, and solid-shedding capabil

A convenient method for the separation of molecular species of sphingomyelin by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) is described.Sphingomyelin species from bovine brain and sheep and pig erythrocytes were resolved into 10-12 separate peaks on a micro -BondaPak C(18) or Nucleosil-5-C(18) reversedphase column with methanol-5

Universal exhibitions are almost Leather Wallet exclusively described as representations of an outside reality.The authenticity of the exhibits and the relation between the display and the real thing are put into consideration to investigate the political aims and ambitions of the organizers.However, the records of the spectators show that these we

Several binaural audio signal enhancement algorithms were evaluated with respect to their potential to improve speech intelligibility in noise for users of bilateral cochlear implants (CIs).50% speech reception thresholds (SRT 50 ) were assessed using an adaptive procedure in three distinct, realistic noise scenarios.All scenarios were highly nonst

Maintaining soil structure and stability is essential, especially in arid and semi-arid regions with poor soil structural stability.Destruction of soil and its crust can cause wind erosion and desertification.The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of using hydrogel nanocomposite mulch ground strap on the stabilization of sand sur
