development of different optical methods for determination of glucose using cadmium telluride quantum dots and silver nanoparticles
a simple, rapid and low-cost scanner spectroscopy method for the glucose determination by utilizing glucose oxidase and cdte/tga quantum dots as chromoionophore has been described. the detection was based on the combination of the glucose enzymatic reaction and the quenching effect of h2o2 on the cdte quantum dots (qds) photoluminescence.in this study glucose was determined by utilizing glucose...
on the comparison of keyword and semantic-context methods of learning new vocabulary meaning
the rationale behind the present study is that particular learning strategies produce more effective results when applied together. the present study tried to investigate the efficiency of the semantic-context strategy alone with a technique called, keyword method. to clarify the point, the current study seeked to find answer to the following question: are the keyword and semantic-context metho...
15 صفحه اولCost effectiveness of antenatal screening for cystic fibrosis.
OBJECTIVE To estimate the cost effectiveness of different antenatal screening programmes for cystic fibrosis. SETTING Antenatal clinics and general practices in the United Kingdom. DESIGN Four components of the screening process were identified: information giving, DNA testing, genetic counselling, and prenatal diagnosis. The component costs were derived from the literature and from a pilot...
متن کاملCost-effectiveness of 4 neonatal screening strategies for cystic fibrosis.
OBJECTIVES The purpose of this work was to assess the costs of 4 neonatal screening strategies for cystic fibrosis in relation to health effects. In each strategy, the first test was the measurement of serum concentration of immunoreactive trypsin. The second step consisted of either a second immunoreactive trypsin test (strategy 1) or a multiple mutation analysis (strategy 2). In strategies 3 ...
متن کاملA decision-tree approach to cost comparison of newborn screening strategies for cystic fibrosis.
OBJECTIVE Because cystic fibrosis can be difficult to diagnose and treat early, newborn screening programs have rapidly developed nationwide but methods vary widely. We therefore investigated the costs and consequences or specific outcomes of the 2 most commonly used methods. METHODS With available data on screening and follow-up, we used a simulation approach with decision trees to compare i...
