(2012-07-11)
Treatment of aqueous extracts of the fruit of C. abyssinica, containing 0.25% sodium chloride with three volumes of ethanol produced an acidic polysaccharide with a 2% yield, on a fresh weight basis. With a protein content ...
To find cost effective routes that are able to meet the fuel/time constraints using the Intelligent Transportation Systems in VANETS
(2012-08-29)
The use of real-time information in Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) in particular Vehicular Ad hoc Networks (VANETs) has the potential to improve traffic conditions and reduce travel delays by facilitating better ...
N,N-Bis (pyridin-2-ylmethyl) cyclohexanamine
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2012-06)
The pyridine rings of the title compound, C18H23N3, are in a
nearly perpendicular orientation relative to the plane defined
by the three amino-bonded C atoms, making dihedral angles
of 87.4 (1) and 84.2 (1) . One of ...
