he increasing amount of heat generated by electronic devices is making devices thermal design and ways to combat heat more and more important issues to deal with. Therefore, we have developed a system able to evaluate thermally conductive materials such as conductive adhesives. The measurement technology is based on the steady-state method, and can evaluate heat transfer characteristics of moun...

The objective of this thesis was to study whether heterocyclic dicationic compounds that are minor groove binders have the ability to inhibit the digestive properties of type II restriction enzymes which bind to the major groove of the DNA. If these compounds do possess the ability to inhibit restriction enzymes, then what factors influence their ability to inhibit the restriction enzymes? The ...

This research studies the application of a specific nanoemulsion as anti-Escherichia coli agent. The mixture was generated by simplex-centroid design. Physicochemical parameters such droplet average diameter, pH, viscosity, density, turbidity, whitening index, refractive stability (thermal, physical, and osmotic stability), antibacterial activity kinetic, have been assessed. nanoemulsions had d...

We have previously suggested that protein kinase C (PKC) contributes to persistent pain in the formalin test. This study compared the effects of pharmacological inhibition of PKC with either GF 109203X or chelerythrine on persistent pain following noxious chemical stimulation with its effects on mechanical hyperalgesia, which develops in the hindpaw contralateral to an injury produced by noxiou...

Defective variants of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) protease (HIV PR) have been engineered to inhibit wild-type (wt) HIV PR activity. These variants were designed to promote the formation of heterodimers and to destabilize the formation of inactive variant homodimers of HIV-1 protease through substitutions at Asp-25, Ile-49, and Gly-50 (Babé, L. M., Rosé, J., and Craik, C. S. (199...

The tyrosine kinase receptor c-Kit is critically involved in the modulation of nociceptive sensitivity in mice. Ablation of the c-Kit gene results in hyposensitivity to thermal pain, whereas activation of c-Kit produces hypersensitivity to noxious heat, without altering sensitivity to innocuous mechanical stimuli. In this study, we investigated the role of c-Kit signaling in human pain percepti...

background and purpose: today, treatment of life-threatening fungal infections, caused by candida species, has become a major problem. in the present study, we aimed to evaluate the antifungal susceptibility patterns of different clinical candida isolates, determine the virulence factors in multi-drug resistant (mdr) candida species, and assess the anti-biofilm activity of elettaria cardamomum ...
