... Show MoreMesoporous silica was developed to transport metoprolol tartrate (MPT). The data obtained from the kinetic experiments of adsorption of 15 ppm of MPT drug at 293 K was fitted in the pseudo-first-order, pseudo-second-order, and intraparticle diffusion models. The results show that the adsorption process obeys the pseudo-first-order equation and the rate-controlling step, not just the intraparticle diffusion step. The MPT drug load onto mesoporous silica was 15.13 mg/g. The release profile shows that the MPT drug was about 55% released after 40 min when released in water, while in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) media, the release reached 90% after 60 min at body temperature (37°C).

First, a new class of direct implicit Runge-Kutta (RK) processes, called RKTDIO, is introduced as solutions to third-order ODEs. Secondly, it develops the ERKTDIO method, which is an embedded pairwise diagonal implicit RK method. The study begins by introducing the theory of relevant-colored trees and B-series as fundamental concepts. By utilizing the order constraints, two RKTDIO methods are derived: a fifth-order method with three stages and a sixth-order method with four stages. In addition, an embedded method called ERKTDIO6(5) is derived, which has orders six and five. The derivation of the embed

Electron transfer from a photo-excited N749 sensitized into a wide-band gap is the basic charge separation in dye-sensitized solar cells, or "DSSCs". Due to the understanding of the current of the DSSCs functioning mechanism, the energy levels of the hetero junction N749- device surrounded by DCM solvent as polar media must be continuum levels. The current-voltage (J-V) characteristics of the N749- device are calculated in two concentrations at room temperature (T=300 k) and 100 irradiation. The fill factor and efficiency of the device are found to be 0.134 and 6.990 for con
