Accommodating large increases in sample workloads has presented a major challenge to clinical laboratories during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. Despite the implementation of automa…
For testing the effectiveness of air purification devices in regard to the reduction of virus-containing aerosols, a test method involving test viruses has been lacking until now. The use of bacteriop…
We developed a powerful and highly reliable cascade functionalization technique for constructing sophisticated macromolecular architectures. Central to the technique are the ambident agents having com…
We introduce a new extension of image correlation spectroscopy (ICS) and image cross-correlation spectroscopy (ICCS) that relies on complete analysis of both the temporal and spatial correlation lags …
Prostanoids, such as prostacyclin (PGI) and thromboxane A2 (TxA), have been recently suggested to play an important role in preservation-induced injury of pancreas grafts. We have previously shown tha…
Although many blood flow models have been constructed for cerebral arterial trees, few models have been reported for their venous counterparts. In this paper, we present a computational model for an a…
Little is known about the factors influencing individual selection and consumption of fats or the role of sensory preferences in this process. Thirty human subjects kept diet records for 10 d and then…
Past measurements of precorneal tear film thickness in rabbits and humans gave values of 4-7 microns. These have been the accepted values. However, measurements presented in this report are much highe…
By means of injection, corrosive, histological methods, light microscopy with elements of morphometry, electron (transmissive and raster) microscopy, 260 preparations of the human placenta have been s…
BACKGROUND: Personal lubricant use is common during anal intercourse. Some water-based products with high osmolality and low pH can damage genital and rectal tissues, and the polymer polyquaternium 15…
To investigate the origin of human T-lymphotropic virus I (HTLV-I), strains of diverse geographical origin were analysed. We sequenced the LTR and env genes of HTLV-I strains from Brazil, Central Afri…
Articulating paper/film is a sheet strip that is coated with ink- or dye-containing wax and is used for marking occlusal contacts and monitoring the results. New types of occlusal film systems have be…
Ten formalin-fixed atherosclerotic carotid plaques removed by endarterectomy were molded into rectangular agar blocks containing fiducial markers on the top surface. Plaque and fiducial markers were i…
When frog nerve-muscle preparations are stimulated tetanically in saline solutions containing Ca2+, Mn2+, Co2+, or Ni2+ there is a substantial rise in miniature end-plate potential (MEPP) frequency. A…
Anthropomorphic models used in computational dosimetry, also denominated phantoms, are based on digital images recorded from scanning of real people by Computed Tomography (CT) or Magnetic Resonance I…
The accumulation of lead in several bones of Wistar rats with time was determined and compared for the different types of bones. Two groups were studied: a control group (n = 20), not exposed to lead …
PURPOSE: The aim was to evaluate the effect of maternal use of chewing gums containing xylitol, chlorhexidine/xylitol or fluoride on the prevalence of mutans streptococci (MS) in the mothers' 18-month…
Recent epidemics of yellow fever in eastern Africa have stimulated serological surveys in the Karamoja district of Uganda, the northern frontier district of Kenya and the Giohar district of Somalia. A…
Single Echo Acquisition (SEA) imaging is a fully parallel imaging method that can be used to image rapid flow at the frame rate as high as 200 frames per second. Previous work has shown that SEA imagi…
PURPOSE: This study was undertaken to evaluate the changes in the radiopacity and mechanics of polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) bone cement with the addition of barium.MATERIALS AND METHODS: Barium sulfa…
