Factorization of absolutely continuous polynomials

In this paper we study the ideal of dominated (p,s)-continuous polynomials, that extend the nowadays well known ideal of p-dominated polynomials to the more general setting of the interpolated ideals of polynomials. We give the polynomial version of Pietsch s factorization Theorem for this new ideal. Our factorization theorem requires new techniques inspired in the theory of Banach lattices.The authors thank the referee for his/her suggestions. D.

Fabrication of functional graded Al2124 composite reinforced with Al2O3 particles

The composite materials formed by powder metallurgy are mostly used in industry due to their excellent properties such as low density, high strength, and hardness. The aim of this study is to produce functional graded Al material reinforced with macro-sized Al2O3. To fabricate the aluminum matrix composite, commercial Al 2124 aluminum alloy powder (from Gürel Makina), which is used in aerospace and defense industries, was chosen as a matrix material. Powder metallurgy was used to produce the functional graded material because it allows an easy incorporation of reinforcement phase into the matrix. The sintered samples were characterized using optical microscopy, SEM, and X-Ray diffraction analysis. The results show that functional graded material structure and the transition interlayers were achieved by the presented process. © 2017, Polish Academy of Sciences. All rights reserved

Effects of correlation on the conductivity of a two-dimensional weakly disordered lattice with particle-hole symmetric energy bands: Metal-insulator transition at half filling

The conductivity sigma(T) of a two-dimensional weakly disordered square lattice is studied at half-filling in the presence of the electron-electron correlations. The particle- hole symmetry, existing in the energy spectrum at half-filling, results in quantum corrections to sigma(T). The negative interaction contribution to sigma(T) in the weak localization regime, taking place far from half-filling, changes the sign due to the Bragg reflection assisted quantum corrections, and sigma(T) logarithmically increases with decreasing the temperature as half-filling is approached

Effects of N-acetylcysteine treatment on oxidative stress in acetic acid-induced experimental colitis in rats

PubMed ID: 15790131We assessed the possible protective effects of N-acetylcysteine (NAC) against toxic damage in the rat colon. Two doses of NAC (20 mg/kg and 100 mg/kg) given for 2 days and 7 days after acetic acid administration (to induce colitis) were tested. NAC was dissolved in saline and administered locally (intracolonic), systemically (intraperitoneal) or in a combination (intracolonic and intraperitoneal). Several parameters, including macroscopic and histopathological scores and myeloperoxidase, glutathione and nitric oxide concentrations were measured using standard assay procedures. Treatment with 100 mg/kg NAC for 7 days significantly decreased tissue myeloperoxidase, glutathione and nitric oxide concentrations. The 20 mg/kg dose had no protective effects. The data indicate that NAC substantially reduced the degree of colonic injury, probably by regulating free radical production and inhibiting inflammation. It may, therefore, have a role in the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease. Copyright © 2005 Cambridge Medical Publications
