Simplex optimization of artificial neural networks for the prediction of minimum detectable activity in gamma-ray spectrometry
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2006)
A three-layer feed-forward artificial neural network (ANN) with a back-propagation learning algorithm was used to predict the minimum detectable activity (AD) of radionuclides (Ra-226, U-238, U-235, K-40, Th-232, Cs-134, ...
Supercritical carbon dioxide extraction and fractionation of hyper for in and adhyperforin from St. John's Wort (Hypericum perforatum L.)
(CHISA 2006 - 17th International Congress of Chemical and Process Engineering, 2006)
Plants of the genus Hypericum have been used as traditional medicinal plants in various parts of the world. St. John's Wort (Hypericum perforatum L.) has been reported as an antidepressive, antiviral, antimicrobial, ...
Enhancement of the electrochemical reduction of oxygen at platinum by nickel underpotential deposition
(Springer, New York, 2006)
Polycrystalline Pt electrode was modified by underpotential deposition (upd) of nickel. The modification was performed by potential cycling in phosphate buffer pH 7. 0 containing NiSO4, in which hydrogen and nickel upd ...
Effects of operating parameters on efficiency of cadmium and zinc removal by the complexation-filtration process
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2006)
A process for purifying wastewaters containing heavy and toxic metals such as cadmium and zinc by the complexation-filtration process was studied. From previous research, diethylaminoethyl cellulose (DEAE23) was selected ...
Supercritical carbon dioxide extraction of carrot fruit oil - Comparison with hydrodistillation and modelling
(CHISA 2006 - 17th International Congress of Chemical and Process Engineering, 2006)
In this study the compositions of Carrot fruit (Daucus carrota, cultivar Chanteney) essential oil obtained by hydrodistillation and its extract obtained by supercritical carbon dioxide extraction at 313 K and 10 MPa were ...
Biocompatible and bioadhesive hydrogels based on 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate, monofunctional poly(alkylene glycol)s and itaconic acid
(Springer, New York, 2006)
Novel poly(Bisomer/HEMA/IA) hydrogels were prepared by radical copolymerization of poly(alkylene glycol) (meth)acrylates, i.e. short chains Bisomers, 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) and itaconic acid (IA) in a mixture ...
Electrochemical oxidation of iodide in aqueous solution
(Elsevier Science Sa, Lausanne, 2006)
Electrochemical oxidation of iodide on DSA (Ti/RuO2) anode was investigated in laboratory cell and semi-industrial electrochemical reactor. Anodic polarization curves in the laboratory cell were obtained in solutions ...
Copolymer hydrogels based on N-isopropylacrylamide and itaconic acid
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2006)
In this study, the swelling behaviour of copolymer hydrogels of N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAM) and itaconic acid (IA) in response to temperature and pH value of the external media was studied. The equilibrium degree of ...
Nonisothermal melt-crystallization kinetics of hydroxyapatite-filled poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) composites
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2006)
The knowledge of biomedical implants ranging from drug delivery devices to tissue engineering and based on bioresorbable polymer composites is increasing, but the study of the crystallization kinetics of these kinds of ...
The particle distribution functions and applications
(Natl Inst Optoelectronics, Bucharest-Magurele, 2006)
The new generalized logarithmic equation defined by four parameters, called LG4, was formulated and proposed for describing particle size and shape distributions. For special choice of the parameters the LG4 was reduced ...
