introduction: auger electron based radioimmunotherapy (rit) using 111in-dota-trastuzumab (111in-dota-antiher2) feasibility was studied in vitro on a her2/neu positive cell line, skbr3. methods:111in-dota-antiher2 was prepared according to the optimized conditions followed by quality control tests including radiochemical purity; immunoreactivity). skbr3 as a her2/neu positive cell line was used ...

We use support vector machines (SVMs) to compute the actions which maintain a dynamical system within a defined subset of its state space. The principles of our method are inspired by the viability theory. We use SVMs to approximate the viability kernel which is the set of states from which it is possible to maintain the system. The actions to perform on the system can then be easily computed f...

WON, WILIAiM D. (University of Caifornia, Berkeley), ANm HAROLD Ross. Effect of diluent and relative humidity on apparent viability of airborne Pasteurella pestis. Appl. Microbiol. 14:742-745. 1966.-Airborne Pasteurella pestis (A-1122) at low humidities [20 to 50% relative humidity (RH)] exhibited exponential decay when either 1% peptone or Heart Infusion Broth (HIB) was used as the diluent in ...

The intent of this talk is to propose an alternative way to deal with observability of systems governed by ODEs, in a more general setting than the standard output equation. We show that the starting instants from which the system is observabe correspond to points of single-valuedness of a multifunction I(·), which involves the viability kernel of output domain under the augmented system. The a...

BACKGROUND Cord blood (CB) viability determines product quality and varies with time and temperature of exposure before cryopreservation. Global viability assessment may not reflect viability of white blood cell (WBC) subsets, CD34+ cell viability, or hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells function. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS We compared trypan blue (TB) and acridine orange/propidium iodide (AO/PI...

The post-mortem chondrocyte viability could potentially be used as an indicator of time since death for forensic needs. The aim of presented study was to investigate three different cartilage donor sites (knee, ankle, and auricle) and three viability analysis protocols (manual counting under a microscope, cell viability analyzer, flow cytometer) for ex vivo determination of chondrocyte viabilit...

This paper deals with the stochastic control of nonlinear systems in the presence of state and control constraints, for uncertain discrete-time dynamics in finite dimensional spaces. In the deterministic case, the viability kernel is known to play a basic role for the analysis of such problems and the design of viable control feedbacks. In the present paper, we show how a stochastic viability k...
