We demonstrate that the anodization of copper in alkaline water/ethylene glycol media containing fluoride ions generates nanostructured copper oxide films. By modifying the anodization conditions (fluoride and OH– concentrations, applied voltage and anodization time), nanofibrillar Cu2O as well as highly rough nanofibrillar network or nanoporous mixed Cu2O/CuO films are obtained. Raman and X-ray Photoemission Spectroscopy (XPS) results indicate that in fluoride presence, Cu(I) oxide is obtained when ...

Limited sample sizes imply parametric assumptions could be violated, even if traits have been reported to fulfil parametric assumptions. Parametric studies have addressed a non-significant influence of CSN1S1 genes on Murciano-Granadina milk yield, fat, protein and dry extract. We used non-parametric categorical tests to find alternative statistical methods to analyse the power to explain the variability found in the population regarding milk yield and its components. We analysed 2090 records for ...

We find genome-wide significant association at seven genomic regions affecting: lobe size and attachment, folding of antihelix, helix rolling, ear protrusion and antitragus size (linear regression P values 2 × 10(-8) to 3 × 10(-14)). Four traits are associated with a functional variant in the Ectodysplasin A receptor (EDAR) gene, a key regulator of embryonic skin appendage development. We ...

Each cmol of calcitic or dolomitic lime applied per kg of soil increased the pH with 0.13 and 0.16 units, respectively. Consequently, the decrease in Al saturation was higher with dolomitic than with calcitic liming material. The zero point of charge (ZPC) ...
