A Monte Carlo model of radiative transfer in multi-phase dusty media is applied to the situation of stars and clumpy dust in a sphere or a disk. The distribution of escaping and absorbed photons are shown for various filling factors and densities. Analytical methods of approximating the escaping fraction of radiation, based on the Mega-Grains approach [4], are discussed. Comparison with the Mon...

 Thin-walled energy absorbers are used to reduce accident induced damages. In this study, thin-walled stainless steel structures in quasi-hemisphere geometry were subjected under quasi-static loading with Santam 150KN apparatus. Experimental results were compared with results of numerical simulations by LS-DYNA and it was shown that there is a good agreement between experimental and numerical r...

Background: For radiotherapy of total skin including sub-cutaneous tissue up to a depth of 3 cm on the entire left leg of an adult (Angiosarcoma skin), a complex treatment with multiple stationary electron fields was planned at our clinic. The details of dosimetry, clinical dose measurements are presented. Materials and Methods: The treatment planned with 6 overlapping 9 MeV electron fields in ...

protein tyrosine phosphatases (ptpases) regulate tyrosine phosphorylation of target proteins involved in several aspects of cellular functions. enzyme activities of the ptpases in cytosolic and particulate fractions of rat ascites hepatoma cell lines were determined and compared with those of normal rat liver. our present data revealed that although there was no neoplatic-specific alteration of...

Partially purified antigenic fractions of Leishmania major promastigotes were obtained by sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS-PAGE) and electro-elution. Three isolated protein fractions designated as frac‌tions (Fr.) 1, 2, and 3 correspond to 40-60, 60-80, 80-100 kilodalton (kDa) respectively. They were used for immunization of BALB/c mice against Leishmaniasis. The effects of these fractions on immune...

introduction: the correlation between right and left ventricular ejection fractions (rvef and lvef, respectively) has been studied in only a small number of patients with a marked decrease in rvef and lvef. the aim of the present study was to compare lvef and rvef in patients with ischemic heart disease. rvef and lvef were measured by cardiovascular magnetic resonance (cmr) imaging. materials a...

The effect of aging on cadmium (Cd) bioavailability and bioaccessibility was investigated in naturally aged field soil within a contaminated site. results, which are based comparison investigations carried out 2018 2022 the same samples, provide realistic evaluation variation Cd chemical forms due to long-term aging. data obtained show significant reduction (from approximately 30% 60%) mobile b...

BACKGROUND It has been hypothesized that human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs) confer systemic health benefits to breastfed infants; however, plausible mechanisms for some effects, such as systemic immunomodulation, require HMOs to access the bloodstream of the developing infant. While small concentrations of HMOs have been detected in the urine of breastfed infants there are no published studies ...
