We developed the double elution analysis technique, a modification of standard alkaline elution techniques, to assess cross-link formation and repair in the cycling and noncycling cell populations of multicellular spheroids. DNA cross-linking from cycling cells was measured using radioisotope incorporation; DNA cross-linking from the total cell population was estimated using a fluorometric meth...

The organization of real networks usually embodies both regularities and irregularities, and, in principle, the former can be modeled. The extent to which the formation of a network can be explained coincides with our ability to predict missing links. To understand network organization, we should be able to estimate link predictability. We assume that the regularity of a network is reflected in...

This paper presents an application of Continuum (i.e. Lagrangian) and Finite Element Techniques to flexible manipulator arms for derivation of the corresponding Dynamic Equations of Motion. Specifically a one-link flexible arm is considered for detailed analysis, and the results are extended for the case of a two - link flexible manipulator. Numerical examples are given for the case of both one...

We address the following problem: Given a simple polygon $P$ with $n$ vertices and two points $s$ and $t$ inside it, find a minimum link path between them such that a given target point $q$ is visible from at least one point on the path. The method is based on partitioning a portion of $P$ into a number of faces of equal link distance from a source point. This partitioning is essentially a shor...

the aim of the present work was to investigate the ability of cocopeat to remove of lead (ii) from aqueous solutions. the effects of different parameters such as particle size, adsorbent dosage, ph, contact time, agitation speed and concentration on the removal process has been investigated. the maximum removal of lead ion (92.5%) took place in the ph range of 4 contact time in 30 minutes and i...

surgical removal of impacted third molars is amongst the most common surgical procedures performed by oral and maxillofacial surgeons. every year many articles are published in different journals regarding different aspects in such surgeries. it is necessary to translate such vast amounts of data into simple and easily comprehensible sentences for the students of dentistry and oral surgery. thi...

The change-in-ratio technique is a useful practical procedure for the estimation of game animal population sizes. The major problem with this technique is failure of the assumption that both types of animals are captured or sighted with equal probabilities. Here we extend the change-in-ratio technique to the case where there are two removals with emphasis on the special situation where there ar...

There are many urological and non-urological indications which require bilateral double J stenting. We describe a point of technique for simultaneous removal of both the Double J stents. Both the stents are held by stent removing forceps at a point where they cross each other and then removed in one go with the help of cystoscope. Medline search did not reveal any techniques of removing two DJ ...
