This project evaluation demonstrates that an innovative and low-cost behavior change strategy using Care Groups (a volunteer, peer-educator model) achieved major improvements in nutrition-related household behaviors among a population of 1.1 million people in rural Mozambique, an area where diarrhea and malnutrition are major contributors to child mortality.
This paper shares evidence and insights from a low-cost behavior-change innovation in a rural area of Mozambique.
Manganese oxides are remarkable electrode material for pseudocapacitors due to their ideal capacitive behavior, low cost and environmental friendliness.
In this immunosensor, MnO2 with the characteristics of well electrochemical behavior, low cost, and environmental-friendly, is used as a substitute for horseradish peroxidase to catalyze H2O2 to produce O2, and its 3D nanoflower-like structure is beneficial for the unparallel surface-to-volume ratio.
Alginate has been frequently used in tissue engineering due to the following properties: biocompatibility, low toxicity, nonimmunogenicity, relatively low cost, and mild gelation behavior with divalent cations [ 21].
Mass media campaigns have the potential to reach a large audience at relatively low cost compared with other behavior change approaches.
Superior physicochemical behavior, relatively low cost and easy handling are some of their advantages.
ZnO nanostructures family has gained substantial interest due to their simple fabrication routes, along with low cost and self organization growth behavior enabling the growth of ZnO nanostructures on any substrate material regardless of lattice matching issues [3].
Thus, the ZPG indeed seems to be sensitive to the three operationalizations of the influencing factors, which suggests that reciprocity, distress cues, and low cost are associated with increased helping behavior (see Figure 1).
The stable hysteretic behavior, easy fabrication and low cost are expected characteristics for high-performance energy dissipater.
