The purpose of this study is to focus on cost stickiness and cost anti-stickiness and, by using financial data from unlisted companies to conduct quantitative analysis, to uncover aspects of cost variation and their underlying mechanisms among the group of unlisted companies that previous research has yet to clarify.

This study investigates the reduction behavior of two international iron ores, including a synthetic hematite produced by oxidation of magnetite, in a novel fluidized‐bed kinetic reactor at elevated pressures. The reduction takes place at various temperatures (650°C, 700°C, and 750°C), and various hydrogen partial pressures (30, 55, and 80 vol% H2 ...

ABSTRACT This study examines how Intermediate Units (IUs) in multinational corporations gain the attention of corporate headquarters and subsidiaries. Using the Attention‐Based View, we show that attention depends on how visible and useful the IU's knowledge appears to other internal actors.

ABSTRACT This study investigates how embedded knowledge assets influence the strategic choice between greenfield and acquisitive international joint ventures (IJVs). Integrating transaction cost theory with a knowledge‐based view, we theorize that establishment mode decisions are driven not only by governance efficiency but also by the need to access ...

Cytogenotoxic and Molecular Assessment of Pyrethrins on Non‐Target Allium cepa Roots
ABSTRACT The pyrethrins, which form a part of naturally occurring insecticidal chemicals derived from chrysanthemum flowers, not only provide rapid knockdown of a broad spectrum of insect pests but are also widely used in integrated pest management due to a generally favorable safety profile, largely attributed to low mammalian toxicity.

Investigating the effect of competition on cost stickiness in Iran\'s banking industry [PDF]
Recent research findings regarding cost behavior have shown that costs do not change in proportion to changes in sales. In other words, while costs increase with rising sales, they do not decrease proportionately with falling sales.

Trace Levels of Triclosan May Affect Root Growth and Morphology in Cultivated Plants
ABSTRACT Triclosan (TCS) is a micropollutant frequently detected in biosolids applied to agricultural soils. In soil solution—where it is potentially bioavailable to roots—it occurs at residual concentrations (ng L−1). Nevertheless, the ecotoxicological implications of TCS exposure in agricultural crops at these concentrations are still not fully ...

Nonthermal plasma approaches for combating implant‐associated infections: A compendious review
Implant‐associated infections pose serious clinical challenges. Non‐thermal plasma (NTP) modifications overcome this bottleneck in distinct ways relative to traditional sterilization methods. Gas‐phase plasmas generate highly energetic species, UV radiation and reactive oxygen/nitrogen species (RONS), which alter the implant surface properties.

This study reveals how long‐term activation of jasmonic and salicylic acid signalling reshapes arthropod communities and plant fitness across seasons. By showing that induced defences generate contrasting outcomes and cascading trade‐offs across trophic levels, it challenges the assumption that induced resistance is uniformly beneficial in natural ...
