Monitoring the Diffusion Layer During Passive Film Breakdown on Alloy 800 with Digital Holography

Influence of temperature on passive film properties on Ni–Cr–Mo Alloy

Digital holography with ultimate sensitivity.

We propose a variant of the heterodyne holography scheme that combines the properties of off-axis and phase-shifting holography. This scheme makes it possible to filter off numerically the zero-order image alias and the technical noise of the reference. It is then possible to record and reconstruct holographic images at an extremely low signal level. We show experimentally that the sensitivity ...

the effect of e-64 on the developmental competence of sheep cocs during in vitro maturation

in the present study, the effect of e-64 at different concentrations (0.5, 1, 5 and 10 µm) added to (1) the ivm medium on oocyte nuclear maturation and developmental competence of ovine oocytes, and (2) to the ivc medium on embryonic development of ovine embryos were investigated.

-800-call-me: the Myth of the Passive Prospect 1-800-call-me: the Myth of the Passive Prospect

Models of the evolution of signalling have often failed to consider the role of signal receiver as anything more than that of a passive recipient of signals. This passivity takes three forms. First, receiver's are often modelled as valuing information for its own sake, whereas signallers are taken to place diiering values on receiver response. Second, receivers are often considered to be free f...

Influence of aqueous diffusion layer on passive drug diffusion from aqueous cyclodextrin solutions through biological membranes.

Most drugs permeate biological membranes via passive diffusion and it is generally assumed that the main barrier is the lipophilic structure of the membrane. However, we have observed that the unstirred water layer adjacent to the membrane surface can in some cases be a barrier just as effective as the lipophilic membrane itself. Hydrophilic cyclodextrins can enhance drug delivery through biolo...
