Due to the high demand of wearable electronics, flexible supercapacitors have been extensively developed in recent years. Yet, the effect of deformation in the interior electrode material suffered in practical applications on the performance received less attention. Here, we study the electrochemical behavior of macroscopic nanoporous gold/polypyrrole (NPG/PPy) in situ under compression deformation.

Anode material is one of the most important factors on the application of microbial fuel cells for wastewater treatment due to its key role in forming exoelectrogenic biofilm and transferring electrons along with the high investment cost. In this study, carbon brush (CB), carbon cloth (CC) and graphite felt (GF) were investigated as alternative anode materials for 6 L single-chamber dual air-cathode microbial fuel cells (MFCs) in terms of starting-up rate and electricity production with artificial wastewater and slaughter wastewater. The cost effectiveness of anode materials was also evaluated.

Objective: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of transnasal endoscopic resection and craniofacial resection through an external approach for olfactory neuroblastoma (ONB).

Methods: Thirty two patients with ONB treated between 1987 and 2006 were retrospectively reviewed.

Results: The patients were followed up for 8-135 months, the median follow-up time was 20 months.

Objective: To evaluate endoscopic ultrasonography for masses in nasal cavity and paranasal sinus.

Methods: Under the guidance of nasal endoscope, sonographic scan of 18 masses within nasal cavity and paranasal sinus was performed by using 10 MHz catheter transducer with diameter of 3.3 mm under local anesthesia.
