Introduction:

Nanobiotechnology serves as an imperative technique in the development of clean, nontoxic, and eco-friendly procedures for the synthesis and congregation of metal NPs having the intrinsic ability to reduce metals by specific metabolic pathways. Silver nanoparticles are particularly interesting nanoscale systems due to the ease with which they can be synthesised and modified chemically. Synthesis of silver nanoparticles has been widely researched due to their interesting size and shape-dependent properties [26]. These novel properties can be tailored by controlling their size, shape, composition, structure and crystallinity. Due to their size features and advantages over available anti-microbial properties, chemical imaging ...

Multiple factors went into play before the Europeans claimed dominance over world trade routes and conquered vast lands outside Europe. With a particular interest in the fact that the Chinese boasted better navigation tools and sea vessels than the Portuguese and the Spanish did by the fifteenth century (World Shrinks17mins), the rise of the West benefited greatly from the lack of competition. In other words, if the Chinese had maintained their desire to show their military prowess to other nations, then the West would have taken longer if not failed to come into power.

Bergamo is one of the most historic cities in the Lombard region of Italy. The city has been undercapitalizing on the tourist industry, bringing in marginal revenues in part because of the relative location to Milan, a city larger and better suited to massive scale tourism.

Recently, the joint cooperation of Slovenia and Italy to expand upon the ...

Some parameters of urine “macroscopic” examination are quantity, color, clarity and cloudiness. Some of the constituents that might be observed in a urine “microscopic” examination are epithelial cells, crystals, bacteria or yeast and protozoan casts. Three conditions that can occur prior to a specimen being poured into a centrifuge tube that can produce false-negative microscopic results are the use of an old, unpreserved specimen, failure to mix the specimen and an amorphous precipitation. For the overall evaluation of the sediment and the detection and quantity of casts, the magnification that should be used is 100x. On the other hand ...

Introduction

There are environmental chemical processes which require light to react. These processes are called photochemical reactions. Photochemical reaction is commonly initiated due to the absorption of solar energy or light. When molecules absorb energy in the form of light, the atoms are converted in a transient excited state (Larson & Weber, 1994). This transition state or excited has completely different physical and chemical properties with the initial state of the molecule. The excited states also have more tendencies to react since they are considered stronger acids and stronger reductants that the initial state of the molecule. The excited state of ...
