Lackluster compounds are evaluated in ways guaranteed to make them look good, Goldacre writes, then prettied up even further with distorted claims of efficacy.
The compounds are evaluated in vitro against each of Mtb, and the apicomplexan parasites Pf, Pb, Tg and Nc, and cytotoxicities are assessed against a human fetal lung fibroblast cell line.
Thermodynamics of alloy formation was considered and approximate values of the standard potentials and standard free energies of the compounds are evaluated.
The thermal conductivities of Ln2Zr2O7 compounds are evaluated and the obtained thermal conductivity of Ln2Zr2O7 is lower than that of yttria-stabilized zirconia, indicating that they could be good low thermally conductive materials at high temperature.
An advantage of the thermal infrared spectrometry method is that both the temperature and aerosol profiles, which need for retrieval of the vertical profiles of minor compounds, are evaluated from the same spectrum.
Detonation velocities and detonation pressures of these compounds are evaluated using empirical Kamlet Jacobs equations on the basis of the calculated crystal densities and solid-phase heats of formation.
