Xanthan gum (XG) is an effective soil-binding material for enhancing the geotechnical engineering performance of soil. Due to hydrophilicity XG, however, its ineffectiveness as a soil-strengthening agent in wet conditions and associated durability concerns continue be obstacles implementation XG soil treatment. Here, we investigated effect trivalent chromium (Cr3+) crosslinking on rheology hydr...

The three articles in this special issue focus on the impact of mobile wireless communications networks (xG) Information Technology and Systems. “x” xG is an expression rapid impactful growth networks. These generational increments are more than simply increasing network speed connecting devices. Each generation cellular has its own uniqueness that deserves rigorous focused studies. This need s...

10-Gigabit-capable Passive Optical Network (XG-PON), one of the latest standards of optical access networks, is regarded as one of the key technologies for future Internet access networks. In this paper, we propose and discuss the design and implementation of an XG-PONmodule for the NS-3 network simulator. The aim is to provide a standards-compliant, configurable, and extensible module that can...

CD99, the product of the MIC2 gene, exhibits an erythroid-specific quantitative polymorphism coregulated with the polymorphism of the XG blood group gene. As a preliminary study of this phenomenon, human XG and CD99 recombinant proteins were expressed in murine RAG cells and analyzed by flow cytometry. Both proteins were expressed independently and at a similar level in single and double transf...

This report presents our XG-PON module for the NS-3 network simulator. This module is designed and implemented with aim to provide a standards-compliant, configurable, and extensible module that can simulate ...

Use of biomaterials and light on bone grafts has been widely reported. This work assessed the influence of low-level laser therapy (LLLT) on bone volume (BV) and bone implant contact (BIC) interface around implants inserted in blocks of bovine or autologous bone grafts (autografts), irradiated or not, in rabbit femurs. Twenty-four adult rabbits were divided in 8 groups: AG: autograft; XG: xenog...
