Wireless sensor systems often fail to provide measurements with uniform time spacing. Measurements can be delayed or even miss completely. Resampling intervals is necessary satisfy the requirements of subsequent signal processing. Common resampling algorithms, based on symmetric finite impulse response (FIR) filters, entail a group delay 10 s samples, which not acceptable regarding typical inte...

Objective: Pili (Canarium ovatum, Engl.) pomace is an underutilized agricultural waste that possesses great potential to be regarded as a functional food ingredient. The aim of this study was to measure the polyphenol content and antioxidant activity of pili pomace drink and determine the influence of heating on these parameters. Moreover, it sought to assess the acute effects of thermally proc...

    In this double blind crossover study we assessed the bioequivalence of 200 mg enteric coated sodium valproate tablets manufactured by Roozdarou with 200 mg enteric coated sodium valproate (Orlept) manufactured by Desitin, Germany. Twelve healthy male volunteers were administered a single dose of 600 mg sodium valproate manufactured by Roozdarou, followed by a similar dose of Orlept, 2 weeks...

in this study, simple and efficient ultrasound-assisted emulsification microextraction (usaeme) combined with gas chromatography-flame ionization detector (gc-fid) was developed for the preconcentration and determination of carbamazepine in biological samples. in this method, the fine droplets of 1-octanol were formed and dispersed in the sample with the help of ultrasonic waves, which accelera...

UNLABELLED Because recent reports have questioned the traditional 2-compartment model for calculating tracer clearance after a single intravenous injection, a 3-compartment model was evaluated in this study. METHODS Bayesian statistics were used, which facilitated curve fitting by treating all subjects simultaneously. (99m)Tc-Mercaptoacetyltriglycine clearance data from 154 adults and 109 chi...

a validated hplc method was developed to determine doxorubicin concentration in a small volume of rat plasma (60 µl) with convenient fluorescence detection. sample preparation includes a simple one-step liquid-liquid extraction using minimum amount of organic solvent, with extraction recoveries more than 95%. the analysis was accomplished using perfectsil c18 column maintained at 35 °c and a mo...

The detection and quantification of plasma (serum) proteins at or below the ng/ml concentration range are of critical importance for the discovery and evaluation of new protein biomarkers. This has been achieved either by the development of high sensitivity ELISA or other immunoassays for specific proteins or by the extensive fractionation of the plasma proteome followed by the mass spectrometr...
