Diverse biophysical and biochemical studies have sought to understand electron transfer (ET) in DNA in part because of its importance to DNA damage and its repair. However, the dynamics and mechanisms of the elementary processes of ET in this medium are not fully understood and have been heavily debated. Two fundamental issues are the distance over which charge is transported and the time-scale...

This research examines the effects of leadership (LP), strategic planning (SP), organization culture (OC), human resources (HR), partnership (PS), availability of resources (RC), and systems, structures and processes (SSP) on public firms’ innovation in Jordan. Moreover, it aims at identifying the key barriers hinder implementing innovative systems. One hundred ninety two are collected from 67 ...

Inhalation of nanoparticles (NP), including lightweight airborne carbonaceous nanomaterials (CNM), poses a direct and systemic health threat to those who handle them. Inhaled NP penetrate deep pulmonary structures in which they first interact with the pulmonary surfactant (PS) lining at the alveolar air-water interface. In spite of many research efforts, there is a gap of knowledge between in v...

Protein S (PS) is a vitaminK-dependent glycoproteinwhich plays an important role in the regulation of blood coagulation. PS deficiency has been found in 1.5-7% of thrombophilic patients. Here, we report the first Polish case with PS deficiency caused by the p.Arg451* in the PROS1 gene detected in a 21-year-old man with trauma-induced venous thromboembolism. To our knowledge, we provided the rev...

PP-g-PS copolymer is a typical compatilizer used in polypropylene and polystyrene immiscible blends. PP-g-PS copolymers with different side chain lengths were synthesized, and their thermal and mechanical properties were characterized by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), polarizing optical microscopy (POM) and dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA), respectively. The DSC and POM results show ...
