gas sensitive metal oxide layers used in fabrication of resistive gas sensors are prepared by different deposition techniques. the technical data reported on some basic and practically important specifications of these devices, although fabricated based on the same gas sensitive oxide, are anomalously different. the influence of the fabrication technique used for the deposition of the gas sensi...

response surface methodology (rsm) is a statistical method useful in the modeling and analysis of problems in which the response variable receives the influence of several independent variables, in order to determine which are the conditions under which should operate these variables to optimize a corrugated box production process. the purpose of this research is to create response surface mode...

a 65 year old male with metastatic colorectal cancer (mcrc) in the liver was referred for selective internal radionuclide therapy (sirt) following a history of extensive systemic chemotherapy. 90y pet imaging was performed immediately after treatment and used to confirm lesion targeting and measure individual lesion absorbed doses. lesion dosimetry was highly predictive of eventual response in ...

background rapid response teams (rrts) assess patients during early phases of deterioration to reduce patient morbidity and mortality. objectives this study aimed to evaluate the ability of earlier medical intervention by a rrt prompted by clinical instability in patients to reduce the incidence of and mortality from unexpected cardiac arrest at our hospital. patients and methods a nonrandomize...

granulomatous response in association with breast cancer and within the cancer draining lymph nodes is an extremely rare phenomenon. granulomatous inflammation is an immune response commonly seen against infectious agents and certain non-neoplastic conditions. the etiopathogenesis of granulomas associated with malignancies is not clear but it may be because of an immunologic reaction to tumour ...

in some conditions, to avoid deterioration and field losses of soybean seeds (glycine max merr.) from weathering at end of the season, farmers start to harvest seeds with a high moisture content and so, careful post-harvest drying would be required to maintain the physiological quality of seeds. response surface methodology (rsm) was used to optimize the operating conditions of soybean seed dry...

background: occurrence of resistance against antibioticsand inadequate efficacy of some vaccines necessitates studies ofnatural immunostimulators in aquaculture. shrimps shell derivedfrom chitosan can be used as immune stimulators in fish.objectives: in this study, the effects of oral administration ofchitosan, derived from shrimp shell, on some immune responsesand disease resistance in cyprinu...

objective(s): response surface methodology (rsm) by central composite design (ccd) was applied to statistically optimize the preparation of rutin-quercetin (ru-qr) dual drug loaded human hair keratin nanoparticles as well as evaluate the characteristics. materials and methods: the effects of three independent parameters, namely, temperature (x1:10-40 c), surfactant (x2: sds (1), sls (2), tween-...

difference aspects of multinomial statistical modelings and its classifications has been studied so far. in these type of problems y is the qualitative random variable with t possible states which are considered as classifications. the goal is prediction of y based on a random vector x ? ir^m. many methods for analyzing these problems were considered. one of the modern and general method of cla...
