DESIGNING A TECHNIQUE FOR THE INDUCTION MOVEMENT OF NANOPARTICLES FOR THE EXTRACTION AND MEASUREMENT OF CADMIUM (II), MERCURY (III), AND LEAD (II) IN ENVIRONMENTAL SAMPLES USING ALUMINA MODIFIED WITH CHITOSAN.

Designing a technique for the induction movement of nanoparticles for the extraction and measurement of cadmium (II), mercury (III), and lead (II) in environmental samples using alumina modified with chitosan.

Contamination of water environments with heavy metals and dyes as a result of industrial wastewater discharge is one of the most serious environmental problems.In this research, nano-alumina coated with chitosan was used to remove heavy metal cations of cadmium (II), mercury (III), and lead (II) from water and industrial wastewater samples.The dyna

Balancing-Prioritized Anti-Slip Control of a Two-Wheeled Inverted Pendulum Robot Vehicle on Low-Frictional Surfaces with an Acceleration Slip Indicator

When a two-wheeled inverted pendulum (TWIP) robot vehicle travels on slippery roads, the occurrence of wheel slip extremely threatens its postural stability owing to the loss of wheel traction.If a severe wheel slip happens between the driving wheels and contact surfaces, no control techniques can guarantee the driving performance and stability of

Dendritic Cell Targeting of Bovine Viral Diarrhea Virus E2 Protein Expressed by Lactobacillus casei Effectively Induces Antigen-Specific Immune Responses via Oral Vaccination

Bovine viral diarrhea caused by bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) is an important disease in cattle, resulting in significant economic losses to the cattle industry worldwide.In order to develop an effective vaccine against BVDV infection, we constructed a dendritic cell (DC)-targeting oral probiotic Kids Swim Hats vaccine (pPG-E2-DCpep/LC W56) us

Cannabis, research ethics, and a duty of care

Despite growing evidence to the contrary, researchers continue to posit causal links between cannabis, crime, psychosis, and violence.These spurious connections are rooted in history and fueled decades of structural limitations that shaped how researchers studied cannabis.Until recently, research in this area was explicitly funded to link cannabis
