The authors sought to determine whether there are any heating effects of 1.5-T MR scanning upon nickel-chromium electrodes and to confirm the safety of scanning these electrodes after intracranial surgical implantation in epilepsy patients. Since there was no significant temperature increase of the electrodes tested in their experiments, the authors conclude that nickel-chromium electrodes implanted in the brain are thermally safe for MR scanning.

High global demand for nickel metal has contributed significantly to the growth of the nickel mining industry in Indonesia. This growth has a positive multiplier effect on the economy, with the potential to affect aquatic life and humans owing to the high levels of chromium, nickel, and iron in mine water. Therefore, this study aims to develop an electrocoagulation (EC) reactor to remove nickel, chromium, and iron from mine water.

The aim of this study is the fabrication of unprecedented neuroelectrodes, replete with exceptional biological and electrical attributes. Commencing with the synthesis of polyethylene glycol and polyethyleneimine-modified iron oxide nanoparticles, the grafting of Dimyristoyl phosphatidylcholine was embarked upon to generate DMPC-SPION nanoparticles. Subsequently, the deposition of DMPC-SPIONs onto a nickel-chromium alloy electrode facilitated the inception of an innovative neuroelectrode-DMPC-SPION.

Long-time and high-quality signal acquisition performance from implantable electrodes is the key to establish stable and efficient brain-computer interface (BCI) connections. The chronic performance of implantable electrodes is hindered by the inflammatory response of brain tissue. In order to solve the material limitation of biological interface electrodes, we designed sulfonated silica nanoparticles (SNPs) as the dopant of Poly (3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) to modify the implantable electrodes.

The hemodynamic activity of workers was evaluated during restraint stress for a period of 30 min. The observed parameters were power variation in the elapsed time, and subsequently, six periods of one second were divided and called A, B, C, D, E and F; in each period, the electrocardiographic parameters were evaluated: spike frequency, amplitude, spike intervals and spike duration. The experiment was carried out with eight worker bees of , for which electrodes of a nickel-chromium alloy were made.

This study uses nickel nanoparticles coated on the nickel-chromium (Ni-Cr) alloy by the electrodeposition technique to protect the alloy against corrosion. An open-circuit potential and potentiodynamic and linear polarization resistance in a 1 M HSO solution saturated with carbon dioxide were used to study the anticorrosion performance of nanoparticle coatings. When coated with nanomaterials, the corrosion rate of Ni-Cr alloy was lower than when it was bare, and the potential for corrosion increased from -0.
