Importance and challenges of identifying body fluids in forensic casework In forensic casework, correctly identifying body fluids such as blood, semen, or saliva is important for reconstructing a crime scene. Analysis of stains or biological fluids recovered during an investigation may provide potential sources of DNA that can be used to identify the donor of the fluid or stain [1]. However, bo...

Tumor Treating Fields (TTFields) are non-ionizing alternating electric fields that have anti-cancer properties. After the initial approval for use in patients with recurrent glioblastoma 2011 and newly diagnosed glioblastomas 2015, they now being tested those advanced lung cancer, ovarian carcinoma, pancreatic cancer. Unlike ionizing radiotherapy, TTFields non-linear propagation characteristics...

adjustment of composition of body fluids and electrolytes is one of the most important aspects of patients care. sodium and potassium are the most important body cations, the improper adjustment of them will cause sever disorders in neuromuscular, gastrointestinal, respiratory and cardiovascular systems. acute renal failure indicated by increase in creatinine and nitrogen urea, brings an accumu...

TO INCLUDE a discussion of the regulation of total body water and electrolytes in such a symposium OIn the cardiovascular system at first glanee may require some justification. It should be quickly apparent, however, that the total body fluids and the circulatory system are so intimately interrelated that consideration of one without the other would be quite incomplete. Part of the body fluids,...

In elasmobranch fishes, urea occurs at high concentrations (350-600 mM) in the body fluids and tissues, where it plays an important role in osmoregulation. Retention of urea by the gill against this huge blood-to-water diffusion gradient requires specialized adaptations to the epithelial cell membranes. Experiments were performed to determine the mechanisms and structural features that facilita...
