We theoretically investigate the tunable dual- and multi-channel filter in one-dimensional aperiodic photonic crystals (PCs) embedded with graphene.The dielectrics slabs arrayed alternately submit to the Cantor sequence rule and graphene sheets are local at the interfaces of dielectrics layers.Cantor PCs are fractal structures and support a series
The use of suitable mass rearing methods is crucial to establish successful inundative or inoculative biological control programs.The development of an artificial diet considerably reduces costs of mass rearing.In this study, the efficacy of a new meridic artificial diet for rearing the predatory bug, Orius albidipennis (Het., Anthocoridae), was st
The study describes the effects of biochar and NPK fertilizer on Entandrophragma cylindricum and Tamarindus indica seedlings in the nursery of the Department of Forestry and Wildlife, University of Benin, with a view to evaluating the seedling growth response to the quantity of biochar and the level of fertilizer applied.The potting mixtures used w
PURPOSES: The study is to describe a new surgical technique for correcting large orbital implant exposure with extraocular muscle flaps and to propose a treatment algorithm for orbital implant exposure.METHODS: In a retrospective study, N-Acetyl Cysteine (NAC) seven patients with orbital implant exposure were treated with extraocular muscle flaps.A
Abstract Background In Tanzania, there is no national trauma registry.The World Health Organization (WHO) has developed a data set for injury that specifies the variables necessary for documenting the burden of injury and patient-related clinical processes.As a first step in developing and implementing a national Trauma Registry, we determined how
