Uptake to cuprous oxide (Cu2O) nanoparticle synthesis with various particle sizes and shapes via supersaturation chemistry approach (LaMer model) has been conducted. Ascorbic acid and maltodextrine as reducing agents and polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) as a surfactant were utilized for synthesis of Cu2O nanoparticles in aqueous solution. The narrow particle size range was achieved by controlling the kinetics of nucleation and growth of particles to satisfy LaMer theory. This mean was performed utilizing different reducing agents (ascorbic acid and maltodextrin) and also, changing the reducing agent addition condition. The results showed the reducing agent addition condition, varying the size of Cu2O nanoparticles from 89 nm to 74 nm for drop-wisely and at-once routes, respectively. The samples were characterized by XRD, SEM, and UV-Vis spectroscopy. The results indicate the shape of as-prepared cuprous oxide nanoparticles have close relationship with thermodynamic and kinetic conditions, and also reducing addition condition. 相似文献

The preciptation behavior of the aluminum alloy AA6111 in the advanced stages of aging has been studied using differential
scanning calorimetry (DSC), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and high-resolution TEM (HRTEM). The results have demonstrated
the formation of various precipitate types and morphologies of quaternaryQ phase andβ (Mg2Si) families at the peak-aged condition and during overaging at different temperatures. The work has clarified the sequence
ofQ phase formation and showed evidence for a new morphology of this phase. The sequence of precipitation in AA6111 is elaborated
in light of the new findings. 相似文献

In spite of the growing evidence that daily hemodialysis (DHD) improves clinical outcomes and quality of life, the additional dialysis costs are not currently reimbursed in the United States. Nor have there been reports of the effects of DHD on end-stage renal disease (ESRD) global costs, which would help predict the financial impact of DHD on the ESRD program. Since 1996, 22 patients (20 in-center, 2 home) have switched from conventional thrice-weekly dialysis to short, daily dialysis with six treatments per week. Eighteen patients started for medical indications, and four started for nonmedical reasons. Causes of ESRD were the following: diabetes mellitus (6), hypertension (4), glomerulonephritis (6), hereditary (2), and other (4). Mean age was 56 ± 16 years. Patients had an average of 3.3 major comorbidities. Weekly conventional HD dialysis times were divided into six DHD treatments, each 2.0 ± 0.3 hours. Weekly Kt/V remained unchanged. Twenty-two patients were followed on DHD for 220 patient-months: 7 patients died after 1.8 ± 1.3 months, 2 were transplanted at 4.3 ± 3.2 months, and 2 discontinued DHD at 3.6 ± 4.8 months. Eleven patients remain on DHD at 17.4 ± 8.3 months. Actual costs per extra dialysis session are as follows: $14.30 for supplies and $3.20 for labor for setup/cleanup time (15 minutes at $12.80/hour). Annualized DHD savings are based on comparison of doses of epoetin alpha (Epogen) and blood pressure medication at the start and after 12 months of DHD. Hospitalization rates include all enrolled patients, comparing rates for the 12 months prior to DHD with the first year on DHD, or annualized rates for those on DHD less than one year. Cost assumptions are $9/ 1000 U Epogen, $1/blood pressure pill, and $1200/per day of hospitalization. Extra transportation costs were covered by the patients. No increased access problems were observed. For patients on short DHD longer than 12 months, supply and labor costs increased to $2733/patient/year; however, Epogen use was reduced 55%, and blood pressure medications were reduced 40%. For all patients who switched to DHD, hospitalization rates were reduced 24%. This resulted in a net savings of about $4241/patient/ year after 12 months on DHD. Overall ESRD costs were substantially decreased on DHD. These cost savings must be passed on to providers before DHD becomes more widely available. 相似文献

Fingolimod, an oral sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) receptor modulator, is approved for the treatment of relapsing forms of multiple sclerosis (MS). The interference with S1P signaling leads to retention particularly of chemokine receptor-7 (CCR7) expressing T cells in lymph nodes. The immunological basis of varicella zoster virus (VZV) infections during fingolimod treatment is unclear. Here, we studied the dynamics of systemic and intrathecal immune responses associated with symptomatic VZV reactivation including cessation of fingolimod and initiation of antiviral therapy. Key features in peripheral blood were an about two-fold increase of VZV-specific IgG at diagnosis of VZV reactivation as compared to the previous months, a relative enrichment of effector CD4+ T cells (36% versus mean 12% in controls), and an accelerated reconstitution of absolute lymphocytes counts including a normalized CD4+/CD8+ ratio and reappearance of CCR7+ T cells. In cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) the lymphocytic pleocytosis and CD4+/CD8+ ratios at diagnosis of reactivation and after nine days of fingolimod discontinuation remained unchanged. During this time CCR7+ T cells were not observed in CSF. Further research into fingolimod-associated VZV reactivation and immune reconstitution is mandatory to prevent morbidity and mortality associated with this potentially life-threatening condition. 相似文献

Nanocrystalline Y3− x MM x Fe5 O12 powders (MM denotes Misch-metal, x =0.0, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, and 1.0) were synthesized by a sol–gel combustion method. Magnetic properties and crystalline structures were investigated using X-ray diffraction (XRD), a vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM), and a scanning electron microscope. The XRD patterns showed that the single-phase garnet of Y3− x MM x Fe5 O12 was formed at x values ≤1.0. The saturation magnetization of powders increased with decreasing MM content and reached the maximum value at Y3 Fe5 O12 . The crystallite size of powders calcined at 800°C for 3 h was in the range of 38–53 nm. 相似文献

One of the important issues in assessing multiaxial fatigue damage is interactions between different components of stress such as normal and shear stresses. The present study investigated this interaction effect on the fatigue behavior of materials with shear failure mode when subjected to multiaxial loading conditions. A method is introduced to model this interaction based on the idea that two types of influence are caused by the normal stress acting on the critical plane orientation. These two types of influence are affecting roughness induced closure, as well as fluctuating normal stress which affects the growth of small cracks in mode II. Shear‐based critical plane damage models which use normal stress as a secondary input, such as FS damage model, could then use the summation of these terms. In order to investigate the effect of the method, constant amplitude load paths with different levels of interaction between the normal and shear stresses, as well as variable amplitude tests with histories both taken from service loading conditions and generated using random numbers were designed for an experimental program. The proposed method was observed to result in improved fatigue life estimations where significant interactions between normal and shear stresses exist. 相似文献

Clustering is an effective approach for organizing a network into a connected hierarchy, load balancing, and prolonging the network lifetime. On the other hand, fuzzy logic is capable of wisely blending different parameters. This paper proposes an energy-aware distributed dynamic clustering protocol (ECPF) which applies three techniques: (1) non-probabilistic cluster head (CH) elections, (2) fuzzy logic, and (3) on demand clustering. The remaining energy of the nodes is the primary parameter for electing tentative CHs via a non-probabilistic fashion. A non-probabilistic CH election is implemented by introducing a delay inversely proportional to the residual energy of each node. Therefore, tentative CHs are selected based on their remaining energy. In addition, fuzzy logic is employed to evaluate the fitness (cost) of a node in order to choose a final CH from the set of neighboring tentative CHs. On the other hand, every regular (non CH) node elects to connect to the CH with the least fuzzy cost in its neighborhood. Besides, in ECPF, CH elections are performed sporadically (in contrast to performing it every round). Simulation results demonstrate that our approach performs better than well known protocols (LEACH, HEED, and CHEF) in terms of extending network lifetime and saving energy. 相似文献
