Human pharmacokinetics of netilmicin during multiple dosing were studied in serum and in the fluid of skin blisters with two different ratios of interface area to fluid volume. The kinetics in the blisters followed the serum concentration-time curve with a delay but with a similar elimination half-life of 2.4 h. The kinetics in the 40-microliters blisters followed closely the theoretically calc...

purpose: to report the clinical, histopathologic, microbiologic and confocal microscopic features of candida keratitis after deep anterior lamellar keratoplasty (dalk). patients and findings: the first patient presented with asymptomatic white to cream-colored interface deposits two months after dalk. confocal scan disclosed clusters of hyper-reflective fine granular deposits in the interface w...

Recent research in the area of Second Language Acquisition has proposed that bilinguals and L2 learners show syntactic indeterminacy when syntactic properties interface with other cognitive domains. Most of the research in this area has focused on the pragmatic use of syntactic properties while the investigation of compliance with a grammatical rule at syntax-related interfaces has not received...

Synchrotron x-ray and surface-tension studies of a strong polyelectrolyte (PE) in the semidilute regime (approximately 0.1 M monomer charges) with varying surfactant concentrations show that minute surfactant concentrations induce the formation of a PE-surfactant complex at the gas-solution interface. X-ray reflectivity and grazing angle x-ray diffraction show the complex PE-surfactant resides ...

Movie S2: Zoom of the interface region between left, middle, and right particle. The left and right particles are cut for better visibility of the interface area and rendering colors are set as in movie S1. The movie clearly shows the enhanced Fe and Ni concentrations at the surface of the left and right particle as well as throughout the middle particle. In the last third of the movie the midd...

We study the dynamics of successive slip events at a frictional interface with finite-element simulations. Because of the viscous properties of the material, the stress concentrations created by the arrest of precursory slip are not erased by the propagation of the following rupture but reappear with the relaxation of the material. We show that the amplitude of the stress concentrations follows...

Excess nitrogen gas (Nxs 2 ) was measured in samples collected at six locations in the eastern and western sub-basins of the Cariaco Basin, Venezuela, in September 2008 (non-upwelling conditions) and March 2009 (upwelling conditions). During both sampling periods, Nxs 2 concentrations were below detection in surface waters, increasing to ∼ 22 μmol N kg−1 at the oxic–anoxic interface ([O2]<∼ 4 μ...
