Hybrid boron nitride-natural fiber composites for enhanced thermal conductivity.

Scientific reports

Xia C, Garcia AC, Shi SQ, Qiu Y, Warner N, Wu Y, Cai L, Rizvi HR, D'Souza NA, Nie X.
PMID: 27703226
Sci Rep. 2016 Oct 05;6:34726. doi: 10.1038/srep34726.

Thermal conductivity was dramatically increased after adding natural fiber into hexagonal boron nitride (hBN)/epoxy composites. Although natural fiber does not show high-thermal conductivity itself, this study found that the synergy of natural fiber with hBN could significantly improve thermal...

The genetic and environmental structure of the character sub-scales of the temperament and character inventory in adolescence.

Annals of general psychiatry

Lester N, Garcia D, Lundström S, Brändström S, Råstam M, Kerekes N, Nilsson T, Cloninger CR, Anckarsäter H.
PMID: 26973705
Ann Gen Psychiatry. 2016 Mar 12;15:10. doi: 10.1186/s12991-016-0094-2. eCollection 2016.

BACKGROUND: The character higher order scales (self-directedness, cooperativeness, and self-transcendence) in the temperament and character inventory are important general measures of health and well-being [Mens Sana Monograph 11:16-24 (2013)]. Recent research has found suggestive evidence of common environmental influence...

Theoretical study of tautomers and photoisomers of avobenzone by DFT methods.

Journal of molecular modeling

Trossini GH, Maltarollo VG, Garcia RD, Pinto CA, Velasco MV, Honorio KM, Baby AR.
PMID: 26631072
J Mol Model. 2015 Dec;21(12):319. doi: 10.1007/s00894-015-2863-2. Epub 2015 Dec 02.

Organic ultraviolet (UV) filters such as cinnamates, benzophenones, p-aminobenzoic derivatives, and avobenzone (which have well-established and recognized UV-filtering efficacies) are employed in cosmetic/pharmaceutical products to minimize the harm caused by exposure of the skin to sunlight. In this study,...

Analysis of Methanol in the Presence of Ethanol, Using a Hybrid Capillary Electrophoresis Device with Electrochemical Derivatization and Conductivity Detection.

Analytical chemistry

Santos MS, da Costa ET, Gutz IG, Garcia CD.
PMID: 27992170
Anal Chem. 2017 Jan 17;89(2):1362-1368. doi: 10.1021/acs.analchem.6b04440. Epub 2017 Jan 03.

Concurrently with ethanol, many other compounds can be formed during the fermentation of grains and fruits. Among those, methanol is particularly important (because of its toxicity) and is typically formed at concentrations much lower than ethanol, presenting a particular...

Histopathologic Findings in the Areas of Orange Pigment Overlying Choroidal Melanomas.

Translational vision science & technology

Garcia MD, Salomao DR, Marmorstein AD, Pulido JS.
PMID: 27190699
