Three established human colon carcinoma cell lines (LoVo, SW620, and SW403) with different degrees of phenotype differentiation were investigated for their sensitivity to the cytotoxic effects of cyclophosphamide (CP) and to its active metabolite, 4-hydroxycyclophosphamide (4-OH-CP), and for their mixed function oxidase (MFO) activities. None of the cell lines showed sensitivity to CP as determ...

PURPOSE Intensity modulated proton therapy (IMPT) plans are normally generated utilizing multiple field optimization (MFO) techniques. Similar to photon based IMRT, MFO allows for the utilization of a simultaneous integrated boost in which multiple target volumes are treated to discrete doses simultaneously, potentially improving plan quality and streamlining quality assurance and treatment del...

Designing an efficient wireless sensor network (WSN) system is considered a challenging problem due to the limited energy supply per node. In this paper, performance of several bi-objective optimization algorithms in providing energy-efficient clustering solutions that can extend lifetime nodes were investigated. Specifically, we use Moth–Flame Optimization (MFO) algorithm and Salp Swarm Algori...

Coupling methanol-to-formate oxidation (MFO) with hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) may promote economics by introducing value-added anodic product. Herein, we develop a ternary catalyst Ru&Fe-WOx for boosting both HER and MFO in alkaline media. An electrode pair based on delivers 10/100/500 mA/cm2 current density at low cell-potential of 1.38/1.50/1.62 V excellent durability nearly 100 % Farad...

This paper provides an overview of the numerous technological tools available to distance education teachers. It is becoming common to incorporate a variety of tools for design and implementation of distance learning programs. The distance learning environment is significantly different from that of a traditional classroom, and therefore requires considerable reflection on the part of the teach...
