Background: Decontamination and reuse of respirators have been proposed to mitigate the shortage of respirators during pandemics. The U.S. National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH)…
Maur?cio Rocha e Silva is well known as the discoverer of bradykinin, the powerful hypotensive and smooth muscle stimulating polypeptide which was first detected in plasma following the addition of Bo…
Female noninbred Sprague-Dawley rats were exposed to single doses of 0.28, 0.56, and 0.85 gray (Gy = 1 J/kg or 100 rads) of X-rays or 0.001, 0.004, 0.016, and 0.064 Gy of 430-keV neutrons at 62 +/- 1 …
BACKGROUND: Time-resolved three-dimensional, three-directional phase-contrast magnetic resonance velocity mapping (4D PC-MRI) is a powerful technique to depict dynamic blood flow patterns in the human…
PURPOSE: The aim of this paper is to enhance the dissolution rate of racemic (R,S)-(+/-)-sodium ibuprofen dihydrate via a bio-inspired method of growing mesocrystals.MATERIALS AND METHODS: Mesocrystal…
An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) to measure Streptobacillus moniliformis antibodies in mice and rats was developed. Twelve S. moniliformis strains originating from cases of rat-bite fever …
Free radical generation by peritoneal leukocytes from BALB/c and C57BL/6 mice was monitored for 18 days following infection with Eimeria vermiformis. Free radical generation occurred earlier and was q…
Electrostatic dust transport has been hypothesized to explain a number of observations of unusual planetary phenomena. Here, it is demonstrated using three recently developed experiments in which dust…
Energy and nutrient digestibility of solvent-extracted canola meal (CM) is limited in pigs by its relatively high fiber content. The seed hull, which greatly contributes to the fiber content of CM, is…
The photophysical, photochemical, two-photon absorption (2PA) and metal ion sensing properties of a new fluorene derivative (E)-1-(7-(4-(benzo[d]thiazol-2-yl)styryl)-9,9-bis(2-(2-ethoxyethoxy)ethyl)-9…
For capillary electrochromatography (CEC) to become an analytical separation technique of high speed and resolution the factors determining the conductivity of the column as well as the generation and…
The inactivation of single-particle stocks of human (type 2, Wa) and simian (SA-11) rotaviruses by chlorine dioxide was investigated. Experiments were conducted at 4 degrees C in a standard phosphate-…
As-fabricated deep reactive ion etched (DRIE) silicon mold with very high aspect ratio (>10) feature patterns is unsuitable for poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) replication because of the strong interact…
We have developed an implantable glucose sensor based on a new tri-layer membrane configuration. The needle-type sensor integrates a Pt working electrode and a Ag/AgCl reference electrode. Its size is…
OBJECTIVE: To develop a compact probe that can be used to monitor humidity in ventilator care equipment. A mesoporous film of alternate layers of Poly(allylamine hydrochloride) (PAH) and silica (SiO2)…
In Taiwan and China, calcium carbonate is commonly added as a filler during incense production to lower the cost. This study has found an unexpected benefit for this practice: it reduces particulate e…
Cefmatilen hydrochloride hydrate (S-1090) was administered at 500 and 1000 mg potency/kg once orally to beagle dogs. No deaths occurred. Vomiting, diarrhea or mucous feces occurred on the dosing day, …
A method is described for the construction of a highly sensitive electrochemical biosensor for the detection of acrylamide, based on covalent immobilization of hemoglobin (Hb) onto carboxylated multiw…
Superoxide reductase (SOR) is a non-heme iron metalloenzyme that detoxifies superoxide radical in microorganisms. Its active site consists of an unusual non-heme Fe(2+) center in a [His4Cys1] square p…
Spin-echo small angle neutron scattering (SESANS) provides a new experimental tool for structural investigation. Due to the action of spin-echo encoding, SESANS measures a spatial correlation function…
