This contribution presents a learning scenario in which online learning is connected with live-experiments in mechanical engineering for different manufacturing technologies. The experiments are remote-controlled and monitored by the learner within physical-real laboratories in three European cities. The aim is to design a technical platform including remote controlled, distance-observed experi...

In healthy eukaryotic cells, mitochondria have an outer membrane that surrounds a complex inner membrane structure [7,8]. Cytochrome c is found in the space between the two membranes, the inter-membrane space, where it takes part in the electron transport process. Mitochondria interact with the cell in the process of apoptosis (programmed cell death). During apoptosis cytochrome c is released f...

This paper describes an inexpensive universal remote control device — a simple laser pointer. Using a single inexpensive camera, any interior space can be instrumented with device controls. The MagicWand allows users to manipulate data by pointing a laser at predefined widget areas.

given the critical role played by urban green spaces and the emergence of remote sensing as avaluable natural resource management tool, this study sought to identify trends in green spaces within thecontext of south africa’s transition period (1990 - 2000). using the city of port elizabeth as a case study, threesets of landsat - 5 thematic mapper images (1990, 1995 and 2000) were geo-processed,...

This study was performed to evaluate the role of electroacupuncture on kidney 1 (Ki1) acupoint to prevent the heart and brain injury following ischemia/reperfusion of both kidneys. 24 Sprague Dawley rats were randomly assigned into four equal groups. In the treatment 1 group, following anesthesia, acupuncture needles were inserted on Ki1 on the palm of both hindlimbs and connected to electroacu...

An ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury of small intestine is a serious and common condition that result the blockage superior mesenteric artery (SMA) because significant clinical problems. This study evaluated effect Mesna on systemic induced by ischemia/reperfusion (IR) in also liver, kidney lung as remote organs. Forty Wistar albino rats were randomly divided into four groups: control, ischemia...
