background: the seminal plasma is an excellent source for noninvasive detection of spermatogenesis. the seminal plasma of normospermic and azoospermic men has been analyzed for detection of spermatogenesis. methods: optical spectroscopy (attenuated total reflectance-infrared spectroscopy (atr-ir) and fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ft-ir) has been used to analyze the seminal plasma and...

in this study, laser induced breakdown spectroscopy (libs) is used for qualitative analysis of healthy and carious teeth. the technique of laser ablation is receiving increasing attention for applications in dentistry, specifically for the treatment of teeth such as drilling of micro-holes and plaque removal. in the process of ablation a luminous micro-plasma is normally generated which may be ...

Objective(s): Determination of stages of colon cancer is done by biopsy usually after surgery. Metabolomics is the study of all the metabolites using LC-MS and 1HNMR spectroscopy with chemometric techniques. The stages of colon cancer were detected from patients' sera using 1HNMR. Materials and Methods: Five ml blood was collected from 16 confirmed patients referred for colonoscopy.  One group ...

in this study, copper chromite (cucr2o4) nanoparticles was prepared by inverse co-precipitation method. in this method, cupric nitrate trihydrate, (cu (no3)2.3h2o) and chromium nitrate nonahydrate, (cr (no3) 3.9h2o) with a mole ratio of 1:2 were used. characterization of cucr2o4 nanoparticles was performed by fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ft-ir), raman spectroscopy, x-ray diffraction...

Interactions of ammonia with well-defined NiO( 100) films prepared on Mo( 100) have been investigated using combined high-resolution electron energy loss spectroscopy (HREELS)/temperature-programmed esorption (TPD). The results show that ammonia is bonded to the surface cations of NiO(100) via the nitrogen lone pair of the molecules, with an accompanying transfer of electrons to the surface cat...

introduction: the aim of this study was to evaluate the changes in camp and some other cellular ingredients following adenyl cyclase activation in paragigantocellularis (pgi) neurons of morphine dependent and withdrawn rats. material and methods: the 3.5 mm thick brainstem slice prepared from pgi area (-10.04 to -13.24 from bregma) of control and morphine dependent rats (n=5 in each group). wer...

Using optical spectroscopy with a derivative technique, we find for the high Tc cuprate Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+delta (Bi-2212) evidence for a new high energy scale at 900 meV beyond the two previously well-known ones at roughly 50 and 400 meV. The intermediate scale at 400 meV has recently been seen in angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy experiments along the nodal direction as a large kink. In YB...
