“…The impact of the distance variable supports previous research findings (e.g., Castaldi et al, 2015;Essletzbichler, 2015;Glaeser et al, 1992;Jacobs, 1969;Panne, 2004;Schumpeter, 1912). The positive effect of market potential replicates findings in earlier studies (e.g., Schmookler, 1966;UN, 2018;Zhao & Guan, 2013).…”

“…Therefore, regional development is essentially an endogenous process, as it combines the infrastructure, natural resources, institutional capabilities, knowledge, and skills of a region (Maskell & Malmberg, 1999). Zhao and Guan (2013), using the sample of 20 leading universities active in nanotechnology, showed that nanotechnology is currently a scientific-push rather than the market-pull industry, which has led to the limited creation of an industry. The UN (2018) stated that when income grows, demand initially changes from necessities to more sophisticated goods.…”

The purpose of this article is to assess how internal and external complementarity linkages are responsible for the emergence of new specialization industries in the context of Russian regions in the period from 2005 to 2015, taking into account other factors that are significant for the emergence of such industries. The internal complementary linkages are measured by the share of new specialization industries related to existing specialization industries in the same region. External complementarity linkages are measured by the share of new specialization industries related to existing specialization industries in neighboring regions. Our data show that internal and external complementarity linkages have a strong positive effect on the emergence of new specialization industries, with a greater effect had by external ones. The number of specialization industries, the number of employees, market potential, gross domestic expenditure on research and development (R&D), domestic patent applications, working population with a higher education, and the distance from the administrative center of a region to the nearest million‐plus city also influence the emergence of new specialization industries, while gross regional product (GRP) per worker, the share of companies using the internet, and special economic zones do not. In addition, we assess the models that predict beginning of the process of diversification in a region. Finally, some policy measures are suggested for the creation of new specialization industries for Russia.

Introduction: In the recent years, green synthesis is a novel method without some disadvantages of physical and chemical methods. In this approach, bacteria, archaebacteria, fungi, and plants may be applied without utilizing toxic and expensive materials for metal nanoparticles (MNPs) preparation. Methods: In this study, we used Taguchi method to obtain optimum conditions in titanium dioxide and zinc oxide nanoparticle (NPs) biosynthesis by Halomonas elongata IBRC-M 10214. Design and analysis of Taguchi experiments (an orthogonal assay and analysis of variance [ANOVA]) carried out by the Qualitek-4 software. Effects of TiO(OH)2, incubation temperature, and culturing time for synthesis of TiO2 NPs as well as ZnCl2 concentration, glucose concentration, and incubation temperature for the preparation of ZnO NPs were evaluated as the controllable factors with 3 levels. Characterization of TiO2 and ZnO NPs were determined by UV-Vis spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and dynamic light scattering (DLS) analysis. Also, the antimicrobial properties of these NPs were investigated based on agar diffusion assay of NPs dispersed in batch cultures using Escherichia coli ATCC 25922 and Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 43300 as multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacteria. Results: It was evaluated that TiO2 and ZnO NPs had respectively average diameter sizes of 104.63±27.75 and 18.11±8.93 nm with spherical shapes. In contrast to the TiO2 NPs without antibacterial activity, the ZnO NPs had antibacterial effects at 0.1 and 0.01 M of (ZnCl2). Conclusion: The ZnO NPs have the antibacterial effect that can be operative in the medicinal aspect for fighting against prominent MDR bacteria such as E. coli ATCC 25922 and S. aureus ATCC 43300. In total, this study presents a simple method in the biosynthesis of TiO2 and ZnO NPs with low the expense, eco-friendly, and high productivity properties.

“…The first and second collaborations, ranked by affinity index, are the collaborations of China and Japan with USA, respectively. In order to move forward and improve the overall competitiveness in the field, China needs more international collaboration, especially with those highly developed country such as USA, Germany, and England [4] .From a policy perspective, policy makers should constitute a stable university-industry joint nanobiopharmaceutc innovation platforms to promote the rapid development in the field [4,8] .…”
