background: hypertension (htn) is the most commonly encountered systemic disease in general population. nutrient canals contain blood vessels and nerves that mostly appear in the anterior mandibular region. nutrient canals are not detected in radiographs of all patients, and their normalcy is controversial by many investigators. objectives: the present study investigated the correlation between...

The calyx of Held is a giant glutamatergic synapse in the auditory system and displays multiple forms of short-term facilitation and depression. This study presents a detailed model of short-term plasticity at this synapse. The main components of the model are the presynaptic vesicle dynamics, which include passive and activity-dependent recycling, calcium-dependent exocytosis and the postsynap...

The use of a Lead Slowing-Down Spectrometer (LSDS) is considered as a possible option for nondestructive assay of fissile material in used (spent) nuclear fuel. The primary objective is to quantify the remaining fissile content of the fuel consisting mainly of Pu and U. The characterization of spent fuel is particularly important for nuclear safeguards and for determining the fuel burn-up level...

Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) are renewable, biodegradable biopolymer intracellularly accumulated by wide array of microorganisms as carbon reserve. This study investigates the influence various cultural conditions on PHA production a recently isolated local species under submerged fermentation. Six producing strains were identified 16S rDNA gene sequencing and strain Priestia flexa OWO1 showed s...
