3,4- Methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA or "Ecstasy") is a psychoactive and hallucinogenic drug of abuse. MDMA has been shown to produce neurotoxicity both in animals and humans. Recently, the vasodilator drugs such as pentoxifylline is one of the new strategies which have been considered as neuroprotector. In this study effect of pentoxifylline on bcl-2 gene expression changes in hippocampus ...

Background: Recently, it has been indicated that X-ray coherent scatter from biological tissues can be used to access signature of tissue. Some scientists are interested in studying this effect to get early detection of breast cancer. Since experimental methods for optimization are time consuming and expensive, some scientists suggest using simulation. Monte Carlo (MC) codes are the best...

this paper demonstrates design and fabrication o f a mechatronic system for human drowsiness detection. this system can be used in multiple places. for example, in factories, it is used on some dangerous machinery and in cars in order t o prevent the operator o r driver from falling asleep. this system is composed of three parts: (1) mechanical, (2) electrical and (3) image processing system. a...

Using a high-affinity antibody for estradiol, thermodynamic and experimental limitations on detection limits for competitive capillary electrophoretic immunoassays were examined. Theoretical modeling of the dose-response curves for such assays allowed for optimization of experimental conditions. Through the examination of experimental and theoretical results generalizations could be made as to ...

skin cancer has been the most usual and illustrates 50% of all new cancers detected each year. if they detected at an early stage, treatment can become simple and economically. accurate skin lesion segmentation is important in automated early skin cancer detection and diagnosis systems. the aim of this study is to provide an effective approach to detect the skin lesion border on a purposed imag...
