Investigation of dye-sensitized solar cell performance with single chirality semiconducting carbon nanotubes
(2015-03-01)
In this work, the performance, electrical transport, and optical properties of dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) assembled with single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) of a single chirality in the photoanode were ...
GURB : the game user research blueprint
(2016-08-01)
With the rise of new platforms, distribution and crowdfunding services, the game
industry is facing fast changes and advances in technology. Game development
studios are under more pressure to create successful games due ...
Characterization of carbon nanotubes grown by chemical vapour deposition
(2009-08-01)
Carbon nanotubes (CNTs), discovered by Ijima in 1991, are one of the allotropes of carbon, and can be described as cylinders of graphene sheet capped by hemifullerenes.
CNTs have excellent electrical, mechanical, thermal ...
Chronic effects of single intra-peritoneal injection of endosulfan on rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) and field observations of caged rainbow in Oshawa Creek
(2009-08-01)
The organochlorine pesticide endosulfan has been shown to be highly toxic to fish
and there is some evidence to support that it may act as an endocrine disrupting chemical.
Juvenile rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) were ...
Understanding and predicting method-level source code changes using commit history data
(2016-10-01)
Software development and software maintenance require a large amount of source
code changes to be made to a software repositories. Any change to a repository can
introduce new resource needs which will cost more time and ...
Cluster-based target tracking in vehicular ad hoc networks
(2015-01-01)
Recently Vehicular Ad-hoc Networks (VANETs) have drawn the attention of academic and industry researchers due to their potential applications in enabling Intelligent Transportation System (ITS), including safe driving, ...
Molecular characterization of GABA receptor subunits from the parasitic nematode Haemonchus contortus
(2009-08-01)
Haemonchus contortus is a parasitic nematode that is controlled by several nematocides
which target ion channels. We have identified two H. contortus ion channel genes, Hcounc-
49B and C that encode two GABA-gated chloride ...
Immunomodulatory effects of dietary fibre supplementation: effects on cytokine and antibody production and lymphocyte population profiles
(2009-08-01)
Gastrointestinal microflora has been shown to have a bi-directional relationship with the host immune system. A variety of fermentable carbohydrate polymers largely pass through the small intestine, providing fermentable ...
Characterization of a novel cellulose biosynthesis inhibitor, CBI28, in Gluconacetobacter xylinus
(2010-05-01)
To study the underlying mechanisms for microbial cellulose biosythesis, a novel compound, CBI28, was used as an inhibitor along with classical genetics and EMS mutagenesis. An EZ-Link Biotin Hydrazide Kit was used to create ...
A survey of algebraic algorithms in computerized tomography
(2010-08-01)
X-ray computed tomography (CT) is a medical imaging framework. It takes measured
projections of X-rays through two-dimensional cross-sections of an object from
multiple angles and incorporates algorithms in building a ...
