Application of a constant hole volume Sanchez–Lacombe equation of state to mixtures relevant to polymeric foaming
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2018)A variant of the Sanchez–Lacombe equation of state is applied to several polymers, blowing agents, and saturated mixtures of interest to the polymer foaming industry. These are low-density polyethylene– carbon dioxide and ... -
Application of a new grading scale for tear ferning in non-dry eye and dry eye subjects
(Elsevier, 2014-09-14)Purpose: To apply the Masmali tear ferning (TF) grading scale on non-dry eye (NDE) and dry eye (DE) subjects to test the validity of the grading scale in practice, and to describe the grading scale range for NDE and DE. ... -
Application of hardwood biochar as a reactive capping mat to stabilize mercury derived from contaminated floodplain soil and riverbank sediments
(Elsevier, 2019-02-20)Hardwood biochar (pyrolyzed at 700 °C), a potential candidate for Hg removal, has been proposed for use as reactive capping mats along groundwater discharge zones or riverbanks to control release of Hg from contaminated ... -
The application of localized surface plasmons resonance in Ag nanoparticles assisted Si chemical etching
(AIP Publishing, 2014-01-06)Localized surface plasmons excited by Ag nanoparticles are introduced in the chemical etching process of silicon. A special crateriform structure with gradually varying radius is achieved by the surface electromagnetic ... -
Application of Pyrene Fluorescence to the Characterization of Hydrophobically Modified Starch Nanoparticles
(American Chemical Society, 2018-06-25)Several aspects of pyrene fluorescence were applied to gain an insight into the nature of the microdomains in hydrophobically modified starch nanoparticles (HM-SNPs), prepared by reacting SNPs with propionic and hexanoic ... -
Application of solid phase microextraction for quantification of polyunstarurated fatty acids in biological fluids
(ACS, 2014)Development of a straightforward strategy for simultaneous quantitative analysis of nonesterified fatty acids (NEFA) species in biofluids is a challenging task because of the extreme complexity of fatty acid distribution ... -
Application of Solid Phase Microextraction for Quantitation of Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids in Biological Fluids
(American Chemical Society, 2014-11-17)Development of a straightforward strategy for simultaneous quantitative analysis of nonesterified fatty acids (NEFA) species in biofluids is a challenging task because of the extreme complexity of fatty acid distribution ... -
Applying Persuasive Design Techniques to Influence Data-Entry Behaviors in Primary Care: Repeated Measures Evaluation Using Statistical Process Control
(JMIR, 2018-10-11)Background: Persuasive design is an approach that seeks to change the behaviors of users. In primary care, clinician behaviors and attitudes are important precursors to structured data entry, and there is an impact on ... -

Applying systematic review search methods to the grey literature: a case study examining guidelines for school-based breakfast programs in Canada
(BioMedCentral, 2015-10-15)Grey literature is an important source of information for large-scale review syntheses. However, there are many characteristics of grey literature that make it difficult to search systematically. Further, there is no ... -
An approach to improve direct runoff estimates and reduce uncertainty in the calculated groundwater component in water balances of large lakes
(Journal of Hydrology, 2015-10-30)Groundwater is important in the overall water budget of a lake because it affects the quantity and quality of surface water and the ecological health of the lake. The water balance equation is frequently used to estimate ... -
The appropriateness of using a counter app in experimental studies assessing unwanted intrusive thoughts
(Elsevier, 2020-07)The reliable and valid assessment of unwanted intrusive thoughts (UITs) is crucial. The main aim of the current research was to investigate if individuals who used a counter app (a program on a mobile device that is used ... -
Approximately Coloring Graphs Without Long Induced Paths
(Springer Nature, 2017)It is an open problem whether the 3-coloring problem can be solved in polynomial time in the class of graphs that do not contain an induced path on t vertices, for fixed t. We propose an algorithm that, given a 3-colorable ... -

Aptamer-based biosensors for biomedical diagnostics
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2014-06-07)Aptamers are single-stranded nucleic acids that selectively bind to target molecules. Most aptamers are obtained through a combinatorial biology technique called SELEX. Since aptamers can be isolated to bind to almost any ... -
Aptamer-Functionalized Hydrogel Microparticles for Fast Visual Detection of Mercury(II) and Adenosine
(American Chemical Society, 2012-04-25)With a low optical background, high loading capacity, and good biocompatibility, hydrogels are ideal materials for immobilization of biopolymers to develop optical biosensors. We recently immobilized mercury and lead binding ... -
Aqueous intercalation-type electrode materials for grid-level energy storage: Beyond the limits of lithium and sodium
