Hydrogel preparation under NIR light via a photoinduced RAFT polymerization catalyzed by tetrasulfonated zinc phthalocyanine is reported Cyrille Boyer et al. in their Research Article (e202302451). Exploiting enhanced penetration of light, gelation effectively performed through barriers. Thiocarbonylthio groups embedded hydrogel networks facilitate the reactivation polymer chains wavelengths, e...

We find a larger class of virtually fibred classic Montesinos links of type S̃L2, extending a result of Agol, Boyer and Zhang.

TO THE EDITOR: Boyer et al. (2) carefully investigate brachial artery (BA) perfusion in 15 polycythemic (P) and 13 normocythemic (N) patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, matched for age, sex, smoking, blood pressure, heart rate, lung function, and blood gases. P vs. N had not only higher mean hemoglobin concentrations ([Hb]: 17.4 vs. 14.3 g/dl) but also larger mean BA diameters ...

Almost all enzyme kinetic studies have been based on measurement of net chemical reaction. Isotopic tracer techniques make possible other types of kinetic measurements, including the rate of interconversion of reactants or interchange of atoms between substrates at equilibrium.1 Only very limited studies have been reported of such equilibrium rate measurements with known concentrations of all r...

The problem is that of searching a large block of text to find the first occurrence of a substring (which we will call the ‘pattern’). This particular operation is provided in most text editing systems and it also has applications in bibliographic retrieval systems. Since the text to be searched can be overwhelmingly large — perhaps hundreds of thousands of characters — it is important to use e...

Backgrounds. Wild rodents are reservoirs of various zoonotic diseases, such as toxoplasmosis, babesiosis, and leishmaniasis. The current study aimed to assess the protozoan infection of rodents in Boyer-Ahmad district, southwestern Iran. Materials and Methods. A total of 52 rodents were collected from different parts of Boyer-Ahmad district, in Kohgiluyeh and Boyer-Ahmad province, using Sherman...

A quick search of the internet for books related to teaching reading in a second language will provide an interested party with 20 or more titles published within the last 3–4 years and seemingly countless older texts. Any number of these texts will almost certainly be useful in various ways to different scholars. Despite this abundance of useful texts on the subject however, Reading in a Secon...
