Effect of Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles From Infant Formula Milk Powder on Colon Cells In Vitro

open access: yesJournal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Zinc is an essential trace element that participates in numerous metabolic processes; however, excessive exposure may interfere with the absorption of other metals, such as copper. In recent years, nanotechnology has experienced rapid growth, and zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) have garnered significant attention due to their versatile ...

Comparison of Hirs' equation of Moody's equation for determining rotordynamic coefficients of annular pressure seals [PDF]

open access: yes
The rotordynamic coefficients of an incompressible-flow annular pressure seal were determined using a bulk-flow model in conjunction with two different friction factor relationships. The first, Hirs' equation, assumes the friction factor is a function of

Gait alterations increase friction of degenerated articular cartilage: A tribological study

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To investigate the effect of gait alterations associated with osteoarthritis (OA) on the frictional properties of porcine articular cartilage (AC) in intact and degenerative conditions. Methods Forty‐eight cylindrical AC samples were harvested from 12 porcine femur condyles and equally divided between four groups with n = 12 samples ...

Static and Dynamic Analysis of Porous Gas Bearings Lubricated With Air, Refrigerant R‐134a, Helium and Hydrogen

open access: yesLubrication Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Porous gas bearings (PGBs) enable high‐speed, oil‐free operation in modern rotating machinery. This study develops a coupled thermo‐hydrodynamic (THD) model for a cylindrical porous gas bearing lubricated with four working fluids—air, R‐134a, helium and hydrogen.

Cold EI—The Way to Improve GC‐MS and Increase Its Range of Applications

open access: yesMass Spectrometry Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Gas chromatography‐mass spectrometry (GC‐MS) with Cold electron ionization (EI) is based on interfacing the GC and MS with a supersonic molecular beam (SMB) along with electron ionization of vibrationally cold sample compounds in the SMB in a contact‐free fly‐through ion source (hence the name Cold EI).
