Synthesis of Co(3)O(4) nanowire arrays supported on Ni foam for removal of volatile organic compounds
No full textCrystalline Co3O4 nanowire arrays freely supported on Ni foam are successfully synthesized using a template-free method. The effects of reaction time, concentration of reactants, and temperature on the morphology of the nanowires are studied. The results indicate that uniform Co3O4 nanowires could be synthesized at 90 degrees C, and a transformation of the samples' morphology from nanoparticles to nanowires to microrods is observed by controlling the concentration of the reactants. The well-ordered nanowires synthesized under the selected reaction conditions are composed of spinel Co3O4 with diameters of 500-580 nm and lengths of 6-8 microm. These nanowires show good catalytic activity for the ozone catalytic oxidation of toluene.Hui, K. N.; Yin, Cui-Lei; Hui, K. S.; Lee, J. Y.; Li, M.; Lee, S. K.; Tsui, K.

Linking atmospheric dimethyl sulfide (DMS) and the Arctic Ocean spring bloom
No full textWe measured atmospheric dimethyl sulfide (DMS) mixing ratios at approximately hourly intervals over a 1 year period (April 2010 to March 2011) in the Atlantic sector of the Arctic Ocean (Svalbard, Norway; 78.5 degrees N, 11.8 degrees E). The mixing ratios varied by several orders of magnitude over time scales of less than several days, and occasionally reached 200-300 parts per trillion by volume during the major phytoplankton growth period (May to September), whereas during the winter months (October to April) the mixing ratios were on the order of a few parts per trillion by volume. Our results, based on analyses using multiple data products (atmospheric DMS mixing ratios, satellite-derived ocean colors, and meteorological datasets), indicated that weekly variability in the DMS mixing ratios at Svalbard was highly correlated with variability in the chl-a concentration in waters in the vicinity of Svalbard (r = 0.89). Hourly-to-daily variability in the DMS mixing ratios were satisfactorily explained by changes in the trajectory, altitude, and speed of air masses passing the DMS sources prior to reaching Svalbard. The observed coupling between DMS mixing ratios and chl-a concentration is surprising, and indicates that the variability in chl-a concentrations in the study area represents the change in the abundance of phytoplankton capable of producing DMS. The intensive monitoring of DMS levels at Svalbard enabled us to identify in situ production and the flux of oceanic DMS over the Arctic region. It thus constitutes a useful analytical tool for detecting changes in DMS production associated with variations in phytoplankton productivity resulting from changes in sea ice extent as a consequence of Arctic seasonality and warming.

Significant contribution of dissolved organic matter to seawater alkalinity
No full textThe present study shows a previously undocumented role of dissolved organic matter in the marine carbonate system. During photosynthesis, phytoplankton release dissolved organic compounds containing basic functional groups that readily react with protons during seawater titration, and thereby contribute to alkalinity (a measure of buffering capacity). The magnitude of the contribution of dissolved organic compounds to seawater alkalinity is species dependent, suggesting that individual phytoplankton species exude dissolved organic compounds with unique proton accepting capacities. Our study shows that dissolved organic matter produced by marine phytoplankton during photosynthesis is a newly identified buffering component in the ocean, and indicates that the contribution of dissolved organic matter to seawater alkalinity can be significant in the biologically productive upper ocean, where to date it has been unrecognized or considered insignificant.

Thermal measurements and analysis of AlGaInP/GaInP MQW red LEDs with different chip sizes and substrate thicknesses
No full textThermal properties of AlGaInP/GaInP MQW red LEDs are investigated by thermal measurements and analysis for different chip sizes and substrate thicknesses. To extract the thermal resistance (R-th), junction temperature (T-j) is experimentally determined by both forward voltage and electroluminescence (EL) emission peak shift methods. For theoretical thermal analysis, thermal parameters are calculated in simulation using measured heat source densities. The T-j value increases with increasing the injection current, and it decreases as the chip size becomes larger. The use of a thin substrate improves the heat removal capability. At 450 mA, the T-j of 315 K and 342 K are measured for 500 x 500 mu m(2) LEDs with 110 mu m and 350 mu m thick substrates, respectively. For 500 x 500 mu m(2) LEDs with 110 mu m thick substrate, the R-th values of 13.99 K/W and 14.89 K/W are obtained experimentally by the forward voltage and EL emission peak shift methods, respectively. The theoretically calculated value is 13.44 K/W, indicating a good agreement with the experimental results. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
Sevoflurane vs. propofol in post-operative catheter-related bladder discomfort: a prospective randomized study
No full textBackgroundPost-operative catheter-related bladder discomfort (CRBD) causes increased emergence agitation. Muscarinic receptor activation is a major mechanism in CRBD development. Experimental studies showed that sevoflurane has anti-muscarinic effects whereas propofol does not. Our hypothesis was that sevoflurane anaesthesia would reduce the incidence of CRBD following bladder surgery. MethodsIn total, 82 patients undergoing transurethral bladder tumour excision (TURBT) were assigned randomly to two groups according to the maintenance anaesthetic agent received: sevoflurane (n = 41) or propofol (n = 41). The incidence of CRBD was evaluated at 0, 1, 6 and 24 h post-operatively. The number of patients treated with a rescue medication (tramadol) for CRBD was noted. ResultsThe incidence of CRBD at post-operative 1 h was lower in the sevoflurane group than that in the propofol group (59% vs. 85%; P = 0.007). The differences in CRBD were 27% and 22% at 0 and 6 h post-operatively (P = 0.008 and 0.047, respectively). CRBD occurred in 27 (66%) patients in the sevoflurane group vs. 38 (93%) in the propofol group from 0 to 24 h post-operatively (P = 0.005). The number of patients treated with tramadol was lower in the sevoflurane group (13 [22%] vs. 22 [54%]; P = 0.044). ConclusionSevoflurane, as a maintenance in general anaesthesia, decreased the incidence of early post-operative CRBD and tramadol requirements in patients undergoing TURBT, compared with propofol.OAIID:RECH_ACHV_DSTSH_NO:T201808489RECH_ACHV_FG:RR00200001ADJUST_YN:EMP_ID:A003126CITE_RATE:2.27DEPT_NM:의학과EMAIL:[email protected]_YN:YN
