Hydrogen Portal to Exotic Radioactivity

An Introduction to Radioactivity

SURGICAL EXPERIENCE WITH PORTAL HYPERTENSION DUE TO HEPATOPORTAL SCLEROSIS (NONCIRRHOTIC PORTAL FIBROSIS)

Hepatoportal sclerosis or idiopathic portal hypertension has a worldwide distribution with prevalence in developing and temperate countries. Of 64 patients with this disease seen during a twelve year period, 36 underwent splenectomy or a shunt procedure. The indications for surgical intervention were severe hypersplenism and persistent left upper abdominal pain andlorhistory of frequent ep...

Efficacy of vaporized hydrogen peroxide against exotic animal viruses.

The efficacy of vapor-phase hydrogen peroxide in a pass-through box for the decontamination of equipment and inanimate materials potentially contaminated with exotic animal viruses was evaluated. Tests were conducted with a variety of viral agents, which included representatives of several virus families (Orthomyxoviridae, Reoviridae, Flaviviridae, Paramyxoviridae, Herpesviridae, Picornaviridae...

From exotic to exciting.

The last 20 years coincide almost perfectly with the time I have been working on RNA. I would therefore like to take a very personal view over that time and abstain from talking about specific results of either our work or the many insights from others that have impacted our field—RNA helicases. The science is frequently discussed in reviews. What often goes unnoted are opportunities brought by...

Restoring Balance: Using Exotic Species to Control Invasive Exotic Species

Invasive species threaten natural habitats worldwide, and active human management is required to prevent invasion, contain spread, or remediate ecosystems following habitat degradation. One powerful technology for invasive species management in sensitive habitats is biological control, the use of carefully selected upper-trophic-level organisms that utilize the exotic pest as a resource, thereb...
