BACKGROUND Despite the immense literature related to diverse human electroencephalographic (EEG) parameters, very few studies have focused on the reliability of these measures. Some of the most studied components (i.e., P3 or MMN) have received more attention regarding the stability of their main parameters, such as latency, amplitude or topography. However, spectral modulations have not been a...

OligoSTORM and OligoDNA-PAINT meld the Oligopaint technology for fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) with, respectively, Stochastic Optical Reconstruction Microscopy (STORM) and DNA-based Point Accumulation for Imaging in Nanoscale Topography (DNA-PAINT) to enable in situ single-molecule super-resolution imaging of nucleic acids. Both strategies enable ≤20 nm resolution and are appropriate...

Confocal fluorescence microscopy and atomic force microscopy (AFM) are two established techniques that can be used to study single molecules. Both techniques have their individual capabilities that permit to study different aspects such as topography using AFMs, or dynamics using fluorescence spectroscopy. Thus, a combination of both techniques into a single instrument enhances the methodology ...

We present a method called "Lock Release Lithography (LRL)" that utilizes a combination of channel topography, mask design, and pressure-induced channel deformation to form and release particles in a cycled fashion. This technique provides a means for the high-throughput production of particles with complex 3D morphologies and composite particles with spatially configurable chemistries. In this...

BACKGROUND Some controversy remains about the potential applicability of cognitive potentials for evaluating the cerebral activity associated with cognitive capacity. A fundamental requirement is that these neurophysiological parameters show a high level of stability over time. Previous studies have shown that the reliability of diverse parameters of the P3 component (latency and amplitude) ran...

Definition The deviation of the height of the ocean surface from the geoid is known as the ocean surface topography. The geoid is a surface on which the Earth’s gravity field is uniform. The ocean surface topography is caused by ocean waves, tides, currents, and the loading of atmospheric pressure. The main application of ocean surface topography is for the determination of large-scale ocean ci...

17 run-up algorithm. The code requires as input detailed information on seismic source mechanisms, gridded bathymetric data information for the open sea propagation, and a set of gridded Digital Elevation Models (DEM) containing bathymetry and topography for use during the inundation phase. Accurate bathymetry and topography data for Rhodes were purchased/collected from various sources, GIS-pro...

Map-dot-fingerprint dystrophy cause painless blurred vision due to irregular astigmatism. Corneal topography may show asymmetry and irregularity and can resemble keratoconus. Two patients with map-dot dystrophy with unilateral blurring of vision are presented that were misdiagnosed as keratoconus due to asymmetric corneal topography. Medical treatment with hypertonic saline and lubrication in o...

A system to measure the topography of the first optical surface of the human eye noninvasively by using a curvature sensor is described. The static corneal topography and the dynamic topography of the tear film can both be measured, and the topographies obtained are presented. The system makes possible the study of the dynamic aberrations introduced by the tear film to determine their contribut...
