Emisja rtęci z polskiej energetyki = Mercury emission from polish energy sector
PublicationEnergetyka jest głównym źródłem emisji rtęci- według krajowej inwentaryzacji emisji metali ciężkich. Jednak podawana emisja z elektrowni i elektrociepłowni spalających węgiel kamienny wydaje się być zawyżona. Najnowsze badania wykazują niższą zawartość rtęci w węglu kamiennym (50-150 ppb) niż w węglu brunatnym (120-370ppb). Istnieje zatem potrzeba weryfikacji stosowanych wskaźników emisji dla procesów spalania węgla, które służą...

Effects of metallic silver particles on resonance energy transfer between fluorophores bound to DNA.
PublicationZbadano wpływ filmów wysepek metalicznego srebra na rezonansowe przekazywanie energii między fluoroforami związanymi z DNA.
