Compression and crevasses in vitreous sections under different cutting conditions.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Compression and crevasses are common cutting artefacts in cryo-ultramicrotomy of vitreous sections. They can be reduced or suppressed under optimal cutting conditions. In the present study, compression and thickness were measured for different cutting speeds and knife angles. It was found that compression decreased with feed and that crevasses appeared only above a certain thickness. The optimal feed for vitreous sections was between 50 and 80 nm. The thickness, calculated by two independent methods, was quantitatively related to feed and compression.

Numerical simulation of the fluid dynamics in a 3D spherical model of partially liquefied vitreous due to eye movements under planar interface conditions
Partially liquefied vitreous humor is a common physical and biochemical degenerative change in vitreous body which the liquid component gets separated from collagen fiber network and leads to form a region of liquefaction. The main objective of this research is to investigate how the oscillatory motions influence flow dynamics of partial vitreous liquefaction (PVL). So far computational fluid d...

Search for an adapted forage species for feed production under existing marginal lands and harsh conditions is needed to overcome sever feed shortage in Egypt. Sesbania, Sesbania aegyptiaca (Sesbania sesban, L) has shown potential for forage production and being included in grazing systems, especially on marginal lands and salt–affected soils. An experiment was conducted in the summer of 2004 a...
متن کاملDesign of an Elastic Arthroplastic Disc Optimized under Different Loads
Introduction: Due to limitations of current treatments for degenerative disc disease, arthroplastic methods to repair the diseased disc have been proposed. The artificial disc is a mobile implant for degenerative disc replacement that attempts to lessen the degeneration of the adjacent elements following interbody fusion procedures. Because the success of artificial disc replacement depends on ...
