There’s a broad field of applications for the microcontroller technology, that can be enumerated from simple, like small electric equipment operation, until sophisticated, like single loop digital controllers with man-machine and machine-machine interface, also using complex digital control techniques. The main preoccupation for us is to transmit to an undergraduate student, who hadn’t had any ...

PURPOSE Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) is currently used to establish mutational profiles in many multigene diseases such as colorectal cancer (CRC), which is on the rise in many parts of the developing World including, Iran. Little is known about its genetic hallmarks in these populations. AIM To identify variants in 15 CRC-associated genes in patients of Iranian descent. RESULTS There w...

The positron emitter Mn (t1/2 5 46.2 min, Iβ1 5 97%) is of potential interest in positron emission tomography (PET). With a view to optimizing its production route, excitation functions for deuteron induced nuclear reactions on isotopically enriched (,95%) Cr were determined radiochemically over the energy range of 3 to 13 MeV and for proton induced nuclear reactions on Cr in the range of 18 to...

A recent Penning-trap measurement of the masses of V and Ti leads to a QEC value that disagrees significantly with the previously accepted value, and destroys overall consistency among the nine most precisely characterized T = 1 superallowed β emitters. This raises the possibility of a systematic discrepancy between Penning-trap measurements and the reaction-based measurements upon which the QE...
