Studying the reduction of graphene oxide with magnetic measurements
Abstract The reduction of graphene oxide is one of the most facile methods to fabricate a large amount of graphene. The reduction rate is generally examined by various spectroscopic techniques, but each technique is applied for different purposes. Herein, we demonstrate the correlation between spectroscopic results and magnetic data, which plays an important role in determining the quality of reduced graphene oxides. The magnetic signals are related with the carbon-oxygen functional groups analyzed by spectroscopic tools. Especially, highly reduced sample exhibits the diamagnetic property similar to graphene-like materials. This report can provide an insight to determine the reduction rate …
Invagination of the Sphenoid Sinus Mucosa after Endoscopic Endonasal Transsphenoidal Approach and Its Significance
Objective To describe the clinical features of invagination of the sphenoid sinus mucosa (ISM) and compare them with other similar cases using a visual analog scale (VAS) to assess the various nasal symptoms and to discuss its clinical significance and means of prevention. Study design Retrospective chart review at a tertiary referral center. Methods Between 2010 and 2015, 8 patients who had undergone EETSA surgery displayed postoperative ISM. The comparison group consisted of 147 patients who underwent the same surgical procedures and were diagnosed with the same diseases. Pre- or postoperative paranasal sinus computed tomography (PNS CT) and VAS were performed and subsequently analyzed. R…
