Synthesis of magnetite nanoparticles using electrochemical oxidation by Ye. Ya. Levitin, I. D. Roy, O. S. Kryskiv, T. M. Chan

“…To intensify the anodic process it is necessary to apply the mixing that reduces the thickness of the diffusion layer near the electrode and allows oxidation at a current density of 0.7-1.2 A/dm2. Under appropriate conditions of electrolysis (high current density of the cathode, acidification of the solution) loss of iron Fe2+ is avoided at the expense of cathodic discharge, as mainly at the cathode the reducing of cations H+ occurs. …”

Task Differences and Prosociality; Investigating Pet Dogs' Prosocial Preferences in a Token Choice Paradigm. by Rachel Dale, Rachel Dale, Mylène Quervel-Chaumette, Ludwig Huber, Friederike Range, Sarah Marshall-Pescini

“…However, in contrast to our previous bar-pulling experiment, we could not exclude social facilitation as an underlying motive in the current task. We propose this difference in results between tasks may be related to increased task complexity in the token choice paradigm, making it harder for dogs to discriminate between the test and social facilitation conditions. …”

Classification of finger movements through optimal EEG channel and feature selection by Murside Degirmenci, Yilmaz Kemal Yuce, Matjaž Perc, Matjaž Perc, Matjaž Perc, Matjaž Perc, Matjaž Perc, Yalcin Isler

“…IntroductionElectrencephalography (EEG)-based brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) have become popular as EEG is accepted as the simplest and non-invasive neuroimaging modality to record the brain's electrical activity. In the current BCI research context, apart from predicting extremity movements, recent BCI studies have been interested in accurately predicting finger movements of the same hand using different pattern recognition methods over EEG data collected based on motor imagery (MI), through which a mental image of the desired action is generated when a person ideally simulates or imagines carrying out a certain motor task. …”

Differences between the European and Eurasian Good Pharmacovigilance Practices by A. V. Matveev, A. E. Krasheninnikov, E. A. Matveeva, B. K. Romanov

“…However, the number of differences between the documents increases, as changes are made to the EU GVP. A more comprehensive harmonisation of the EAEU GVP with the current version of the EU GVP will make it possible to develop and use uniform pharmacovigilance documents in the EU and EAEU, and will facilitate the introduction of EAEU medicines into the global pharmaceutical market.…”
