background tissue engineering is used for the treatment of many diseases, and the ideal cell source for cartilage tissue engineering is chondrocytes. the main limitation of chondrocyte is the low number of cells in cartilage tissue engineering. this study investigated a suitable cell source with high proliferation rate to obtain a large number of chondrocytes. methods adult cartilage tissue sam...

Electronic publishing is being influenced by the increasing complexity and reach of information and by a rapidly growing user population. Because of these developments, average authors of electronically published documents have little expert knowledge about how to create well-designed charts. Authors are also confronted with considerable individual differences among remote recipients in culture...

A simple method for fabrication of highly ordered gold nanorod film is introduced in this article. The procedure is based on thermal evaporation of gold into a porous anodic alumina film (PAA). The PPA film was fabricated by combining the hard and mild anodization. This combination effectively decreases the processing time of fabrication of highly ordered porous anodic alumina film with c...

Since it was first presented, James Fowler’s Faith Development Theory has proven influential in pastoral care/counselling, pastoral/practical theology, spiritual direction and Christian education. However, it has also been subject to substantial critical evaluation. This article reviews the major themes within psychological critiques and considers the agenda provided by these critiques for the ...

Students often have difficulty grasping the advantages of the various peer review systems used in scientific publishing. In the described exercise, students are assigned a current study and then write three two-page critiques of the article. The three critiques occur at different times in the semester, and thus the students have differing knowledge bases. The critiques are then assigned to othe...

in this paper a chemical deposition procedure for the preparation of lead sulfide thin film ispresented. the details of the preparation method are described. the influence of hydrazine hydrate onthe microstructure and deposition rate of lead sulfide thin film has been investigated. the concentrationof the lead ions in the deposition bath decreases more slowly when the hydrazine hydrate is added...
