Recently, Co(OH)2 has gained much attention as a promising electrocatalyst. Herein, we synthesized Co(OH)2-decorated TiO2 film for electrocatalytic water splitting by a facile and low-cost electrochemistry method, which possessed enhanced performance for oxygen evolution reaction. The results of X-ray diffractometry, transmission electron microscope, scanning electron microscope and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy verify the successful decoration of Co(OH)2 electrocatalysts onto the surface of TiO2. Moreover, photoelectrocatalytic measurements illustrate that the Co(OH)2-decorated TiO2 shows higher current density than pure TiO2 sample. The results obtained in this work give deep insights into the development of photoelectrochemical water splitting.

The diffusion of silver in amorphous chalcogenides is the basis for high-resolution lithographic applications. Previous studies of the diffusion of silver on contact with chalcogenide films has been studied by Auger depth profiling and the effects of photodoping on chemical bonding have been studied by x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Electron lithographic effects have been studied in the transmission electron microscope.The objective of the investigation described here has been to determine the degree of diffusion of silver in the amorphous chalcogenides, As2S3, As2Se3, GeS and GeSe when these films are in contact with thin silver films. The silver distribution has been determined by x-ray microanalysis of film cross-sections in the scanning electron microscope (SEM). Electron beam induced conductivity (EBIC) at points in these films has also been investigated.

The RGO/Ag nanocomposite with a homogeneous dispersion of Ag on the surface of RGO has been successfully prepared via situ chemical reduction method using DMF (dimethylformamide) as solvent and reducing agent. The RGO/Ag nanocomposite was characterized by X-ray diffractometer (XRD), Fourier transform-infrared (FTIR) spectra, Fieldemission scanning electron microscope (FESEM) and transmission electron microscope (TEM). It is suggested that in the presence of the PVP (polyvinylpyrrolidone), the electrostatic attraction of Ag+ions with negative GO sheets lead to the decoration of Ag nanoparticles on the surface of RGO sheets in RGO/Ag nanocomposite.

Gastritis from returning bile is a common disease, but the reason for the disease is not clear. As the pathologic ultrastructure research progresses, it has drawn attention to the ultrastructural change of cells in gastric mucosa by clinical workers. We observed gastric mucosa tissues of 15 patients suffering from gastritis with a transmission electron microscope (TEM) and a scanning electron microscope (SEM). It is the first report in China that fungus exists in the lamina propria of gastric mucosa tissue. The result is as follows.The gastric mucosa tissues of 15 patients suffering from gastritis were acquired by stomachoscopy. Both TEM and SEM specimens were prepared by the usual methods. Under the TEM, the epithelial surface became higher and larger. Mitochondria of the cells were swollen and cristae were disrupted. There were vacuoles in the cells. The nucleus showed disorder, heterochromatin became darker, and nucleolae could be observed.

Transmission electron microscope(TEM) and scanning electron microscope(SEM) were widely used in experimental tumor studies. They are useful for evaluation of cellular transformation in vitro, classification of histological types of tumors and treating effect of tumors. We have obtained some results as follows:1. Studies on the malignant transformation of mammalian cells in vitro. Syrian golden hamster embryo cells(SGHEC) were transformed in vitro by ThO2 and/or ore dust. In a few days after dust added into medium, some dust crystals were phagocytized. Two weeks later, malignant transformation took place. These cells were of different size, nuclear pleomorphism, numerous ribosomes, increasing of microvilli on cell surface with various length and thickness, and blebs and ruffles(Figs. 1,2). Myelomonocytic leukemic transformation of mouse embryo cells(MEC) was induced in vitro by 3H-TdR. Transformed cells were become round from fusiform. The number of mitochondria and endoplasmic reticulum was reduced, ribosomes and nucleoli increased, shape of nuclei irregular, microvilli increased, and blebs and ruffles appeared(Fig. 3).

Znfe2o4 Nanoparticles

Weak magnetic ZnFe2O4 nanoparticles were prepared by coprecipitation and treated with different concentrations of Fe(NO3)3 solution. Untreated and treated particles were studied using a vibrating sample magnetometer, transmission electron microscope, by X-ray diffraction, X-ray energy dispersive spectroscopy and X photoelectron spectroscopy. The results showed that, after treatment, the ZnFe2O4/γ-Fe2O3 forms disphase nanoparticles, with enlarged size, enhanced magnetic properties and with a surface parceled with Fe(NO3)3. The size of the particles and their magnetic properties are related to the concentration of the treatment solution. The particle size and magnetic properties could be controlled by controlling the concentration of treating solution, therefore nanoparticles can be more widely used.

Pollen grains of 20 taxa from two genera of the Liliaceae were examined and compared by LM (light microscope), SEM (scanning electron microscope) and pollens of four taxa were also examined with TEM (transmission electron microscope). Pollen grains shed as monads. They are monosulcate and ellipsoidal. Fritillaria crassifolia subsp. crassifolia Freyn & Smt. sometimes sheds the pollen as dyads. Exine is semitectate and the tectum is perforate. Columellae are simplicolumellate. Ectexine is thicker than endexine. Exine sculpture (ornamentation) is reticulate, reticulate-rugulate, rugulate and retipilate in Asparagus pollens and reticulate, suprareticulate, rugulate-reticulate and striate-reticulate in Fritillaria pollens. Sulcus extends from distal to proximal in some pollens of Asparagus and Fritillaria.   Key words: Asparagus, Fritillaria, Liliaceae, Pollen morphology DOI = 10.3329/bjb.v36i2.1498 Bangladesh J.
