The role of diffusional resistance on crystal growth: Interpretation of dissolution and growth rate data

ABSTRACT Propranolol was used to investigate the role of phosphatidic acid (PA) and diacylglycerol in the dimorphic transition in Candida albicans. Propranolol was able to inhibit the appearance of germ tubes without decreasing growth rate. Data suggest that inhibition of morphogenesis may be due to binding by propranolol of PA derived from PLD1 hydrolysis of phosphatidylcholine.

ABSTRACTWe have prepared poly-Si1-xGex thin films with different germanium contents (Ge=5%∼40%) by reactive thermal CVD. In this study, the Ge content was controlled by varying the source gases GeF4 flow rate at a fixed Si2H6 flow rate. The effects of GeF4 flow rate on growth rate, film crystallinity, and electrical properties were investigated. The films were always polycrystalline when GeF4 was introduced even in a small amount, while only amorphous film deposited without GeF4. With an increase in GeF4 flow rate, Ge content and conductivity of the films increased and its activation energy decreased. When GeF4 flow rate over a certain value, the growth rate decrease and finally no film could be deposited. These behaviors are discussed in relation with a role of GeF4 for the crystal growth at a low temperature.

In India, the position of mobile banking was in saga and this time, it is in pic position. The speedof reaching the people is going high and high. This is time of wireless world and sense of prestige; no doubt the mobile commerce is contributing to enhance the beauty of life and playing the role of metaphor and has become the part and parcel of our life. This growth has changed people to do business in mobile commerce (М- Commerce). Peoples are transferring to M-Commerce to attain good and fast transaction into market and saving their precious time. M-Commerce has become distinguished in Indian people, quickly during last few years. Due to large number of mobile application, growth rate in mobile penetration in India is increasing with the rapid speed. The mobile users has shifted to use the android phone from simple and black and white phone and taking the service of internet, the role of telecom companies is also important in the being popular of mobile commerce. Although many people have started E-Commerce but still a separate part of the society feel uncomfortable and hesitate to use M-Commerce because of security problems, payment issues and complexity of mobile applications. This paper identifies facts about the feasibility of MCommercein India today its growth and the Strength and opportunity, weakness and threats lying ahead.

Data Treatment

Crystal growth rates of copper sulphate pentahydrate (CuSO4.5 H2O) determined by different authors and methods are compared. The methods included in this comparison are: (i) Measurement on a fixed crystal suspended in a streaming solution, (ii) measurement on a rotating disc, (iii) measurement in a fluidized bed, (iv) measurement in an agitated suspension. The comparison involves critical estimation of the supersaturation used in measurements, of shape factors used for data treatment and a correction for the effect of temperature. Conclusions are drawn for the choice of values to be specified when data of crystal growth rate measurements are published.
