The Material Basis of 18th‐Century Meissen Porcelain

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In the summer of 1708, the quest for making hard‐paste porcelain from Saxonian clay and other mineral resources succeeded. This was achieved by applying as its essential ingredient newly discovered pure kaolin from Heidelsberg near Aue, western Saxon Ore Mountains.

Evaluation of the chemical and thermo-physical properties of locally aggregated kaolin-based refractory materials

open access: yesJournal of Mechanical Engineering and Sciences, 2019
There is a continuous demand for refractory materials to meet the increasing expansion of industries and plants. Local clay materials are being explored to augment the inadequate supply of refractory materials.

Etiology, pathogenesis and treatment of peri‐implantitis: A European perspective

open access: yesPeriodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Peri‐implantitis is a plaque‐associated pathological condition occurring in tissues around dental implants. It is characterized by inflammation in the peri‐implant mucosa and progressive loss of supporting bone. Over the last 30 years, peri‐implantitis has become a major disease burden in dentistry.

ISICSoo: a class for the calculation of ionization cross sections from ECPSSR and PWBA theory

open access: yes, 2011
ISICS, originally a C language program for calculating K-, L- and M-shell ionization and X-ray production cross sections from ECPSSR and PWBA theory, has been reengineered into a C++ language class, named ISICSoo.

Elemental Composition Analysis of Sheep Tears Using Particle‐Induced X‐Ray Emission

open access: yesVeterinary Ophthalmology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To identify the elemental composition of ovine tears using particle‐induced X‐ray emission (PIXE). Animals Studied Ten physically healthy female sheep. Procedures Tear samples were collected using Schirmer tear test strips. Tear samples were collected once daily over five consecutive days to assess reproducibility. Elemental analysis

Elemental analysis of lung tissue particles and intracellular iron content of alveolar macrophages in pulmonary alveolar proteinosis

open access: yesRespiratory Research, 2011
Background Pulmonary alveolar proteinosis (PAP) is a rare disease occurred by idiopathic (autoimmune) or secondary to particle inhalation. The in-air microparticle induced X-ray emission (in-air micro-PIXE) system performs elemental analysis of materials
