A critical review of experimental results on low temperature charge transport in carbon nanotubes based composites
(Elsevier, 2017-11)Owing to their low density, high aspect ratio and excellent charge transport properties, Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are proven to be one of the best reinforcing materials in the fabrication of composite materials. CNTs dispersed ... -
The Crude Oil Price Influence on the Brazilian Industrial Production
(Scientific Research, 2017-04)The oil price is a relevant variable for economic policy makers in countries where this commodity is the main energy source as well as in other countries where crude oil is not the only energy source. The sudden variations ... -
Cyclosporin A inhibits the growth of neonatal MHC-expressing myotubes independent of NFATc1 and NFATc3 in the mechanically overloaded soleus muscle of mice
(Scientific Research Publishing, 2011-04)ABSTRACT The molecular signaling pathway linked to hyper-trophy of the anti-gravity/postural soleus muscle af-ter mechanical overloading has not been identified. Using Western blot and immunohistochemical analy-ses, we ... -
Cytogenotoxic assessment of the aqueous extract of Citrullus lanatus (Cucurbitaceae) leaves using the spermatogonial germ-line cells of Zonocerus variegatus L. (Orthoptera: Pyrgomorphidae)
(African Science Publications, 2020-07-09)The popularity of watermelon, Citrullus lanatus (Cucurbitaceae) has increased in recent years in Cameroon due to the important nutrients it contains and health benefits it presents. Inspired by the ethno botanical and ethno ... -
Cytosolic chaperonin CCT possesses GTPase activity
(Scientific Research Publishing, 2011-10)Cytosolic chaperonin CCT (also known as TRiC) is a hetero-oligomeric cage-like molecular chaperone that assists in protein folding by ATPase cycle-dependent conformational changes. However, role of the nucleo-tide binding ... -
Decisive Parameters for Backwater Effects Caused by Floating Debris Jams
(Scientific Research, 2015-12)The dimensional analysis of the backwater effect caused by debris jams results in the Froude number of the approach flow in the initial situation prior to debris jam formation and the debris density as decisive parameters. ... -
