mitochondrial respiration is a complex process which its biochemistry is often poorly understood by undergraduate students when explained in toxicology lectures. the use of experiments to reinforce their knowledge is important, but not always possible because of low teaching budgets. therefore, a low cost model, made using water, oil, styrofoam and modeling clay, is presented here to simulate t...

exceeded losses of nonstructural components from structural ones in most demolished buildings in previous earthquakes and its limitation on functionality of critical facilities and building serviceability after earthquakes should be got the point of view for accounting loss of building as a merit for building performance. this paper attempts to demonstrate the significant role of distribution p...

adsorption capacity of cr (vi) onto cousinia eryngioides boiss, activated carbon was investigated in a batch system by considering the effects of various parameters like contact time, initial concentration, ph, temperature, agitation speed, absorbent dose and particle size. cr (vi) removal is ph dependent and found to be maximum at ph 2.0. the amounts of cr (vi) adsorbed increased with increase...

Nowadays, many medical devices have been developed for the purposes of diagnosing and treatment. Wearable sensors and systems have evolved to the point that they can be considered ready for clinical application. The use of wearable monitoring devices that allow continuous or intermittent monitoring of physiological signals is critical for the advancement of both the diagnosis as well as treatme...

Abiraterone is approved in combination with prednisone and a luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) analogue for castration-resistant prostate cancer (CPRC) patients progressing in the form of previa [1] or after treatment with docetaxel [2]. CPRC patients treated with abiraterone should take four tablets on an empty stomach one hour before breakfast, 10 mg of prednisone, and continued tr...

wet ag/agcl electrodes, although very popular in clinical diagnosis, are not appropriate for expanding applications of wearable biopotential recording systems which are used repetitively and for a long time. here, the development of a low‑cost and low‑noise active dry electrode is presented. the performance of the new electrodes was assessed for recording electrocardiogram (ecg) and electroence...
