Cryogenic 35GHz pulse ENDOR probehead accommodating large sample sizes: Performance and applications.
2009
The construction and performance of a cryogenic 35GHz pulse electron nuclear double resonance (ENDOR) probehead for large samples is presented. The resonator is based on a rectangular TE(102) cavity in which the radio frequency (rf) B(2)-field is generated by a two turn saddle ENDOR coil crossing the resonator along the sample axis with minimal distance to the sample tube. An rf power efficiency factor is used to define the B(2)-field strength per square-root of the transmitted rf power over the frequency range 2-180MHz. The distributions of the microwave B(1)- and E(1)-field, and the rf B(2)-field are investigated by electromagnetic field calculations. All dielectrics, the sample tube, and…
The Influence of All-Night Exposure to Pulsed Radiofrequency Electromagnetic Fields on Human Sleep. Der Einfluss kontinuierlicher nachtlicher Exposit…
2005
Question of the study The widespread use of mobile telephones has led to public discussion about the putative health hazards as well as scientific interest in the interactions of pulsed, high-frequency electromagnetic fields with physiological systems. This article presents a survey of three consecutive studies carried out by a research group at the University of Mainz.
Correlation between optical and transport properties of Ga-doped ZnO thin films prepared by pulsed laser deposition
2006
Abstract In this paper we report on the correlation between the transport and optical properties of Ga-doped ZnO films epitaxially grown on C-oriented sapphire substrates by means of pulsed laser deposition. Thin films with electron concentrations ranging between 10 20 and 10 21 cm −3 were prepared from targets containing 0.25–5 at.% Ga. The Ga content in the thin films was estimated by XPS, from the ratio between the intensities of the 2p peaks of Ga and Zn. The electron concentration in the films is very close to the Ga content for films prepared from low Ga content targets even at high deposition temperature. For Ga contents in the target larger than 1%, the Ga content in the films incr…
Haptoglobintypenbestimmung mittels vertikaler S�ulenelektrophorese in Polyacrylamidgel
1972
Ein kontinuierliches und zwei diskontinuierliche Polyacrylamidgelelektrophoreseverfahren zur Haptoglobintypendifferenzierung werden beschrieben und die Vorzuge dieser Technik den mit der Starkegelelektrophorese zu gewinnenden Ergebnissen gegenubergestellt. Alle 3 Verfahren sind fur die Routinediagnostik geeignet. Die kontinuierliche PAA-Gelelektrophorese bedeutet zwar eine geringe Vereinfachung der Methodik, sie ist aber den Disk-Verfahren hinsichtlich der Trennungsergebnisse des Hp-Bandenspektrums unterlegen.
Investigation of Different Iontophoretic Currents Profiles for Short-Term Applications in Cosmetics.
2018
[EN] This study aimed at investigating the effect of electrical current profile upon the iontophoretic transport of (i) ascorbic acid (AA) and (ii) ellagic acid (EA), into porcine skin in vitro, and the impact of the physicochemical properties of both actives on their mechanism of transport when formulated in cosmetic compositions. The experiments were performed using a proprietary iontophoretic device containing a roller to apply the formulation. Three current profiles were tested: (i) galvanic direct current (DC), (ii) square unipolar pulse current (SPC), and (iii) galvanic direct current (DC) + pulse current (PC). The skin samples were collected at different sampling points, extracted an…
Application of Pulsed Electric Field Treatment for Food Waste Recovery Operations
2016
International audience; Food industry is generating annually huge quantities of by-products and waste, which are generally considered as problem, as their disposal is associated with environmental and health related issues. During the last decade, numerous research groups and industries have been interested in valorizing these by-products by extracting valuable compounds and incorporating them generally in food and/or cosmetic products, which enhances the profitability of the process. Conventional extraction methods (i.e., maceration, thermal extraction) are exten- sively used for such purposes and showed high yields in many cases. However, the need to replace toxic organic solvents, shorte…
Pulsed Laser Deposition of Cs 2 AgBiBr 6 : from Mechanochemically Synthesized Powders to Dry, Single-Step Deposition
2021
Cs2AgBiBr6 has been proposed as a promising lead-free and stable double perovskite alternative to hybrid and lead-based perovskites. However, the low solubility of precursors during wet synthesis, or the distinct volatility of components during evaporation, results in complex multistep synthesis approaches, hampering the widespread employment of Cs2AgBiBr6 films. Here, we present pulsed laser deposition of Cs2AgBiBr6 films as a dry, single-step and single-source deposition approach for high-quality film formation. Cs2AgBiBr6 powders were prepared by mechanochemical synthesis and pressed into a solid target maintaining phase purity. Controlled laser ablation of the double perovskite target i…
Deposition of indium tin oxide films by laser ablation: Processing and characterization
1998
Abstract In this work an indium tin oxide thin film fabrication technique based on pulsed laser deposition is described and the electrical, optical and mechanical properties of the deposited films are reported. Deposition of high quality films on cold substrates was proved. The third harmonic (355 nm) of an Nd:YAG laser was employed to photoablade the indium tin oxide target.
Evaluation of microbial diversity during the manufacture of Fior di Latte di Agerola, a traditional raw milk pasta-filata cheese of the Naples area
2006
Microbial diversity of the raw milk for the production of Fior di Latte di Agerola and its changes during cheesemaking were studied. Viable counts showed that at the end of curd ripening, loads of lactic acid bacteria, both mesophilic and thermophilic rods and cocci, higher than those commonly evidenced in similar cheeses produced by using natural or commercial starters, were detected. Identification of 272 isolates, supported by molecular diagnostic aids, evidenced representative cultures of a high number of bacterial taxa of interest as participating in the process, although most of the isolates belonged to Lactococcus lactis and Lactobacillus helveticus species. RAPD-PCR and REA-PFGE bio…
Effect of Pulsed Electric Field Pretreatment on Drying Kinetics, Color, and Texture of Parsnip and Carrot.
2018
The aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of pulsed electric field (PEF) pretreatment on drying kinetics and on color and textural changes in sliced parsnip and carrot. Cell disintegration index measured in parsnips after PEF pretreatment significantly differed from the ones measured for carrots and, consequently, the reduction of the time needed to dry both samples to a final moisture content up to 5% (wet basis). The drying time of the PEF pretreated parsnip was reduced by up to 28% at 70 °C and by up to 21% at 60 °C in carrot, in comparison to untreated samples. The PEF pretreatment influenced the effective diffusivity of water into the samples going from 50 °C to 70 °C: in carrots…
