BACKGROUND Any sentinel lymph node that receives lymph drainage directly from a primary melanoma site, regardless of its location, may contain metastatic disease. This is true even if the sentinel node does not lie in a recognized node field. Interval (in-transit) nodes that lie along the course of a lymphatic vessel between a primary melanoma site and a recognized node field are sometimes seen...

Abstract Antimony trisulfide (Sb 2 S 3 ) is a kind of emerging light-harvesting material with excellent stability and abundant elemental storage. Due to the quasi-one-dimensional symmetry, theoretical investigations have pointed out that there exist complicated defect properties. However, no experimental verification on property. Here, we conduct optical deep-level transient spectroscopy invest...

introduction: in the current study, we evaluated the feasibility of body outlining using tc-99m filled flood source for lymphoscintigraphy imaging. methods: 80 patients were included in the study. sentinel node mapping was done using tc-99m antimony sulfide colloid. for outlining the body a tc-99m filled flood source was used which was placed behind or lateral to the patients for anterior and ...

BACKGROUND To study the value of periareolar intra-dermal injection of Tc-99m sestamibi (MIBI) for sentinel node mapping in breast carcinoma. MATERIAL AND METHODS Fifty patients with early-stage breast cancer were included in our study. 17.5 MBq Tc-99m-MIBI was injected intradermally to 25 patients and the remainders were injected with the same dose of Tc-99m-antimony sulphide colloid. Anteri...

Despite the nutritional and medicinal values of Allium hookeri, its unique flavor (onion or garlic taste and smell) coming from sulfur containing compounds limits its usage as functional food. For comparative study, A. hookeri roots were prepared under two different drying conditions, namely, low-temperature drying that minimizes the volatilization of sulfur components and hot-air drying that m...

Alk(en)yl trisulfides (R-SSS-R') are organosulfur compounds produced by crushed garlic and other Allium vegetables. We found that these compounds exhibit potent anticancer effects through the reaction with microtubules, causing cell cycle arrest. Nine alk(en)yl trisulfides including dimethyl trisulfide, diethyl trisulfide, dipropyl trisulfide (DPTS), dibutyl trisulfide, dipentyl trisulfide, dia...

The antimony sulphide (AnS) solar cell is a relatively new photovoltaic technology. Because of its attractive material, optical, and electrical qualities, Sb2Se3 an excellent absorption layer in cells, with conversion efficiency less than 8%. purpose this research to determine the best parameter for increasing efficiency. This focused on influence absorber defect density n/i interface performan...
