Exposure to chemotherapeutic agents like cyclophosphamide (a drug for cancer treatment), leads infertility due its toxic effect on the ovaries. Combo, “a commonly used plant concoction in traditional medicine treatment of infertility” is composed Clove (dried flower), garlic (bulb), ginger (rhizome), and turmeric (rhizome). The aim this study was evaluate possible prophylactic effects Combo the...

Multiple measurement vector (MMV) problem addresses the recovery of a set of sparse signal vectors that share common non-zero support, and has emerged an important topics in compressed sensing. Even though the fundamental performance limit of recoverable sparsity level has been formally derived, conventional algorithms still exhibit significant performance gaps from the theoretical bound. The m...

We evaluated the performance of four visually read pregnancy tests (TestPack Plus hCG Combo, ICON II hCG, SureCell hCG-Serum/Urine and PregnaGen 1-Step) designed to detect increased concentrations of choriogonadotropin (hCG) in either serum or urine samples. The biochemical sensitivities and specificity in both serum and urine samples were similar for each kit. All kits correctly identified pre...

The optical solitons in Bragg gratings fibers are studied for NLSE having cubic-quartic dispersive reflectivity with parabolic non-local combo law of refractive index. extended auxiliary equation method and the addendum to Kudryashov’s introduced. existence criteria such indicated.

The combo agent with roles of initiator and chain transfer agent was demonstrated in RAFT polymerization of styrene. Polymers with defined structures at both α and ω ends were obtained, which was verified by the successful synthesis of seven-block segments of PS and PMA by sequential addition of monomers in one pot.

42 Self-collected vaginal Aptima swabs and flocked swabs in Aptima specimen transport 43 media and ESwabs in ESwab media detected all 37 C. trachomatis infected patients 44 from 287 women tested by the Aptima Combo assay (n=287). Prevalence rates of C. 45 trachomatis, N. gonorrhoeae, and dual infection were 12.8%, 3.1% and 2.4%, 46
