Cold-pressed plant oils are of high interest to consumers due to their unique and interesting flavors. As they are usually only pressed at low temperatures and filtered, without further processing stages (as refining), they preserve their character that originates from the plant the oil was extracted from. Coriander cold pressed oil is gaining popu...
In the absence of good animal models, Controlled Human Infection Models (CHIMs) are useful to assess efficacy of new vaccine candidates against Enterotoxic Escherichia coli (ETEC), as well as other preventive or therapeutic interventions. At the 2018 Vaccines Against Shigella and ETEC (VASE) conference, a workshop was held to further review and dis...
A novel method based on vacuum-assisted sorbent extraction (VASE) used with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) for isolation of volatile phenols was described. The method is based on extraction of analytes into sorbent traps (sorbent pen) filled with Tenax in a vacuum system—vials with traps from which air was evaluated. The method was ap...
The lecture I am going to give deals with the Naqadan painted vases. We will not deal in great detail with the White cross-lined vases of the Naqada I-IIAB period, but will focus on the Decorated vases of the Naqada IIC-D period. The ornamental patterns of the different elements of these vases, the links between these elements and their position on...
•Non- and nitrogen-doped MgxZn1−xO films were grown on ZnO single crystals.•The films were characterized by variable angle spectroscopic ellipsometry.•Absorption and extinction coefficient values of the films were estimated.•Maximum value of the absorption coefficient was about 2×105cm−1.
