Nanosensors have improved very quickly in the last decades and their roles have greatly expanded within the pharmaceutical and biomedical fields, in which measurement science and technology are of key importance. The enhanced chemical and physical properties arising from discrete nanoelectrode devices or the modification of the electrode surface with [...]

To reduce uncertainty due to model selection when a large number of potential candidate models is available, the use of Bayesian Model Averaging (BMA) has emerged as an important tool. As known, the BMA methodology is a coherent approach since we can express the desired quantities as a weighted average [...]

Despite the call for the application of ergonomics in developing countries, the African share of ergonomic studies is modest. Date palm farming is considered one of the most important economic resources in hot and dry areas. In African countries, including Algeria, there exist millions of date palms. Date palm work [...]

An electrooxidative behavior of beta-blocker drug esmolol was thoroughly investigated by using glassy carbon electrode modified with sodium dodecyl sulfate-based platinum nanoparticles. The designed nanosensor exhibited remarkable electro-catalytic effect by dramatically boosting the signal of the esmolol as compared to the bare electrode with detection limit up to picomolar. The [...]

Noble metals are resistant to corrosion and oxidation in moist air. Ruthenium, rhodium, palladium, silver, osmium, iridium, platinum, and gold are a list of noble metals, in order of their respective atomic numbers. The unique characteristics of noble metal nanoparticles (NPs), such as high surface-to-volume ratio, broad optical properties, ease [...]

The signals at the electrode-solution interface of an electrochemical nanosensor may either be dynamic or static. For dynamic methods, such as amperometric-based nanosensors that measure current proportional to the concentration of the analyte, the electroactive center of the species transfers electrons through a redox reaction at the working electrode, while [...]

The prime objective of the current study is to investigate the relationship between job satisfaction and job performance. In addition, the mediating role of organizational commitment and the moderating role of perceived organizational support in the relationship between job satisfaction and job performance is examined. The general aim of this [...]

Electrochemical and optical sensors are useful probes for the detection of medically relevant analytes. For more sensitive drug detection, the properties of both of these devices are combined into a photoelectrochemical sensor (PECS). The photocatalytically generated current in a photoelectrochemical sensor is enhanced by different combinations of organic and inorganic [...]

Many of the recent developments in optical nanosensors have led to tuning the analytical performance of these devices to physiological concentration ranges. Optical nanosensors that measure amplitude, energy, polarization, decay time and decay phase of absorption, phosphorescence, fluorescence, Raman scattering, refraction, interference, and dispersion are extensively used for the detection [...]

A key challenge in nursing education is how to teach the students clinical competencies effectively and to provide opportunities for practicing the fundamental nursing skills safely. The purpose of this study was to examine the competency scores of practicing a clinical skill and the satisfaction level of nursing students on [...]
