nuts will be extracted in a standard method as previously performed in many published works. Several solvents including water‚ acetone‚ ethanol and methanol will be used in our extraction procedure to determine the proper solvent with acceptable toxicity effect over cells and maximum-targeted extraction. The proper concentration and incubation time with the targeted extract will be optimized through a pilot study. 4-6 Apoptosis Assessment 4-6-1 Screenings

chemical synthesis are carried out in solution and organic solvents usually are the first choice. To satisfy this demand‚ 15 billion kilograms of organic are produced worldwide each year. [1] These solvents often bear considerable risk due to their toxicity‚ flammability or environmental hazards. Furthermore‚ they have to be separated from the products and recycled or disposed at the end of the process‚ increasing the overall production cost. Although they play a valuable role‚ organic solvents are

Lead Acid Cell vs. Button Cell Lead acid cells were invented in 1859 by the French Physicist Gaston Plante‚ and are the oldest types of rechargeable batteries. These types of batteries typically weigh at 5kg‚ but can range from half a kilogram to over 30 kilograms on the consumer market. Though their chemistry means a very low energy-to-weight and energy-to-volume ratio in comparison to other modern batteries‚ their ability to supply high surge currents means that the cells maintain a large
