We present a comparative study of the capacity increase brought by bitand power-loading discrete multi-tone (DMT) modulation for low-cost colorless transmitters. Three interesting reflective semiconductor optical amplifier (RSOA) based colorless transmitter configurations are compared: First, an amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) spectrum-sliced source; second, a self-seeded RSOA fiber cavity...

Introduction: laptop bag may be a contributing factor for musculoskeletal complaints in schoolchildren. Several studies have reported an association between carrying heavily loaded schoolbags and musculoskeletal pain or discomfort. Methods: 105 collegiate students were conveniently recruited in this study. Electromyography (EMG) signals were recorded during the treadmill walking at a speed of 4...

Low back disorders (LBDs) are the most common and costly occupationally-related compensable conditions facing employers today. Over the years several biomechanical assessment models have been developed that intended to assess the load profile imposed upon the spine during lifting and, thus, intended to facilitate the control of LBD risk in the workplace. Many of these biomechanical models have ...

There are many instances where it is desirable to determine, at a distance, whether a subject is carrying a hidden load. Automated detection systems based on gait analysis have been proposed to detect subjects that carry hidden loads. However, very little baseline gait kinematic analysis has been performed to determine the load carriage effect while ambulating with evenly distributed (front to ...

Local treatment of lung cancer using inhalable nanoparticles (NPs) is an emerging and promising treatment option. The aim of this study was to investigate the activation of alveolar macrophages by poly (isobutyl cyanoacrylate) (BIPCA) NPs and the consequences of this activation on H460 lung cancer cells. A methylthiazolyldiphenyl-tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay was used to determine the primary...

Meal machine, experimental laboratory, status symbol, domestic prison, or the creative and spiritual heart of the home? Over the course of the past century no other room has been the focus of such intensive aesthetic and technological innovation, or as loaded with cultural significance. Kitchen design has been both a central concern of modernism and fundamental to our concept of modern life (Mo...

On Human Rights Day 1992, the United Nations proclaimed an International Year of the World’s Indigenous People. A Decade for Indigenous Peoples was subsequently launched, to run from 1995 to 2004, and a Forum of Indigenous Peoples established. The inaugural meeting of the Forum, held in Geneva in 1996, was unfortunately disrupted by gate-crashers. A self-styled delegation of South African Boers...

In the duck red blood cell, Na-K-2Cl cotransport exhibits two modes of ion movement: net cotransport and obligate cation exchange. In high-K cells, the predominant exchange is K/K (or K/Rb). In high-Na cells, it becomes Na/Na (or Na/Li). Both represent partial reactions in which a fully loaded carrier releases part of its cargo, rebinds fresh ions, and returns back across the membrane fully loa...
