Background Context: Walking limitations caused by neurogenic claudication (NC) are typically assessed with self-reported measures, though objective evaluation of walking utilizing motorized treadmill test (MTT) or self-paced walking tests (SPWT) have periodically appeared in the lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS) literature. Purpose: This study compared the validity and responsiveness of MTT and SPWT...

BACKGROUND Oospores are the most persistent propagules of Phytophthora capsici. The viability of oospores is determined by staining methods such as the tetrazolium bromide (MTT) test. OBJECTIVES The aim was to assess the MTT test and a plasmolysis method for their utility in determining viability of oospores of P. capsici. METHODS For either procedure the reactions of non-treated (viable) a...

BACKGROUND various MTT assay methods are proposed to obtain the cell survival parameters. OBJECTIVE determining the survival curve characteristics of two cancerous cells of interest based on a common and a novel MTT assay method after exposing them to ionizing radiation. METHODS a common and a novel MTT assay method were used and compared for obtaining the F10B16 melanoma and 4T1 breast ade...

The physics of electromagnetics, or more specifically, the concept electric and magnetic field lines force, was proposed by Michael Faraday, in 1824. André-Marie Ampére’s Faraday’s experimental results were mathematically described James Clerk Maxwell, 1861. Many physicists consider Maxwell’s electromagnetic theory to be among most influential developments physics, it used called Faraday/Maxwel...
