INTRODUCTION In hospitals, organic waste comes from various sources, including food waste, human feces and urine. Human feces collected at the bed of a patient presents risks of contagion, so the feces are collected in metal pans, taken to a central collection unit and disinfected by thermal treatment. Since the used and clean bed pans are handled in the same area, there is an extra risk of contagion. Also organic waste, starts decomposing and emanate foul odor if microbes are present; which again affect the patients and attendants psychologically and physiologically. Another problem that arises in hospitals is that wastewater is contaminated by medicine residues and hormone disruptors, often contained within the feces and urine of patients. Even though wastewater containing medicine residues and endocrine disruptors is disposed of and treated by conventional wastewater treatment plants, it is well known that these substances are hardly affected by such processes. While concentrations of Antibiotics, Hormones and other harsh chemicals in surface water may still be relatively low, it has already been proven that aquatic life has been much affected by such waters. Hospitals and healthcare facilities with chemical, sick room, urine, fecal, vomit, spill, bacteria, fungus, mold, mildew, food and other odors can result in complaints from patients who perceive the air to be polluted and unhealthy. Mode of action The active material is silver in Nan0-ionic form and in ≤ 400 nm size. Silver is completely stable carrier in form of suspension. Pure silver has the highest electrical and thermal conductivity of all metals and has the lowest contact resistance (Nordberg and Gerhardsson 1988). Ancient civilizations were aware of the bactericidal properties of silver (Hill and Pillsbury 1939). Metallic silver was used for surgical prosthesis and splints, fungicides, and coinage. Soluble silver compounds such as silver salts, have been used in treating mental illness, epilepsy, nicotine addiction, gastroenteritis, and infectious diseases, including syphilis and gonorrhea (Marshall and Schneider 1977; Shelley et al. 1987; Gulbranson et al. 2000). Its stability has been tested in accelerated and long terms studies. Silver is known antibacterial agent. Its nano-particles can kill all kinds of bacteria in very low concentration (about 5 ppm). It is also an antiviral and can fight against various kinds of viruses. Silver acts as a photo catalyst. In the presence of air oxygen, it can produce free radicals, and these free radicals can affect the micro organisms and kill them. Silver’s mode of action is presumed to be dependent on Ag+ ions, which strongly inhibit bacterial growth through suppression of respiratory enzymes and electron transport components and through interference with DNA functions. Silver can affect the di-sulficdic bands, between protein complexes. Thus the 3-d form of protein changes and it cannot perform as an enzyme. In case this happens in bacteria cell wall, the selective permeability of cell wall changes, therefore, bacteria swallows and will destroy. If this process occurs in energy cycle enzymes, then, the production of ATP stops and the lack of energy will kill microorganisms. On viruses, the glycoprotein knobs of viral envelop, that are virus antigenic receptors, has a di-sulfic band. This band could be attacked by silver nanoparticles and can destroy the virus and prevents its attachment with host cell. With this mechanism of actions, silver nanoparticles can be used instead of all antibacterial agents and in preventive form; it can be even used as a vaccine. Biological Particularity In "Biosynthesis of silver nanoparticles from Staphylococcus aureus and its antimicrobial activity against MRSA and MRSE" (Anima Nanda MSc, PhD and M. Saravanan MSc, MPhil) it was found that not only was nano-silver effective in prohibiting the growth of 5 of the six bacteria strains tested, it was also found to be most effective against MRSA and MRSE, two well known "super bugs" resistant to antibiotics. Antibiotic effectiveness was increased 20%-70% against test bacteria strains. (Nanomedicine: Nanotechnology, Biology and Medicine, Volume 6, Issue 1, Pages 103-109 A. Fayaz, K. Balaji, M. Girilal, R.

  • Unsolved Problems in Combinatorial Games
    Games of No Chance 5 MSRI Publications Volume 70, 2017 Unsolved problems in combinatorial games RICHARD J. NOWAKOWSKI During the recent development of combinatorial game theory many more problems have been suggested than solved. Here is a collection of problems that many people have found interesting. Included is a discussion of recent developments in these areas. This collection was started by Richard Guy in 1991, and has been updated in each Games of No Chance volume. The problems are divided into five sections: A. Taking and breaking B. Pushing and placing pieces C. Playing with pencil and paper D. Disturbing and destroying E. Theory of games In the sections, the problems are identified by letters and numbers. Any number in parenthesis is the old number used in each of the lists of unsolved problems given on pp. 183–189 of AMS Proc. Sympos. Appl. Math. 43 (1991), called PSAM 43 below; on pp. 475–491 of Games of No Chance, hereafter referred to as GONC. Previous versions of the unsolved problems can also be found on pp. 457–473 of More Games of No Chance (MGONC); pp. 475–500 of Games of No Chance 3 (GONC3); and pp. 279–308 of Games of No Chance 4 (GONC4). Some problems have little more than the statement of the problem if there is nothing new to be added. References [#] are at the end of this article.

The electronic configuration is [Kr]4d105s1. In its elemental form silver's CAS number is 7440-22-4. The silver atom has a radius of 144.5.pm and its Van der Waals radius is 144.pm. Silver has a brilliant white metallic luster. It is a little harder than gold and is very ductile and malleable, being exceeded only by gold and perhaps palladium. Pure silver has the highest electrical and thermal conductivity of all metals, and possesses the lowest contact resistance. It is stable in pure air and water, but tarnishes when exposed to ozone, hydrogen sulfide, or air containing sulfur. Silver nitrate has wide application in painting, xerography, chemical electroplating, in components for electric batteries and in medicine as catalyst. Silver chloride is another important compound, due to its ductility and malleability.

It seeps through the walls topped by barbed wire, it wafts across the electrified borders.” – Ronald Reagan Abstract Today, information retrieval plays a large part of our everyday lives – especially with the advent of the World Wide Web. During the last 10 years, the amount of information available in electronic form on the Web has grown exponentially. However, this development has introduced problems of its own; finding useful information is increasingly becoming a hit-or-miss experience that often ends in information overload. In this thesis, we propose document clustering as a possible solution for improving information retrieval on the Web. The primary objective of this project was to assist the software company Mondosoft in evaluating the feasibility of using document clustering to improve their information retrieval products. To achieve this end, we have designed and implemented a clustering toolkit that allows experiments with various clustering algorithms in connection with real websites. The construction of the toolkit was based on a comprehensive analysis of current research within the area.

Published by SciPress Ltd, Switzerland, 2014 Digital language of Atomic Weights of the Chemical Elements Lutvo Kurić Institute of Economics, University of Sarajevo, Trg Oslobođenja 1, Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina E-mail address: [email protected] ABSTRACT The subject of this thesis is a digital approach to the investigation of the digital basis of digital Periodic Table – periods 4 and 5. A period 4 element is one of the chemical elements in the fourth row (or period) of the periodic table of the elements. The fourth period contains 18 elements, beginning with potassium and ending with krypton. As a rule, period 4 elements fill their 4s shells first, then their 3d and 4p shells, in that order, however there are exceptions, such as chromium. A period 5 element is one of the chemical elements in the fifth row (or period) of the periodic table of the elements. The fifth period contains 18 elements, beginning with rubidium and ending with xenon. As a rule, period 5 elements fill their 5s shells first, then their 4d, and 5p shells, in that order, however there are exceptions, such as rhodium. The digital mechanism of those periods have been analyzed by the application of cybernetic methods, information theory and system theory, respectively. This paper is to report that we discovered new methods for development of the new technologies in chemistry. It is about the most advanced digital technology which is based on program, cybernetics and informational systems and laws.

The digital mechanism of those periods have been analyzed by the application of cybernetic methods, information theory and system theory, respectively. This paper is to report that we discovered new methods for development of the new technologies in chemistry. It is about the most advanced digital technology which is based on program, cybernetics and informational systems and laws.
