Rat livers and microsomes were subjected to electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) measurements at 77 K. The EPR spectra of the livers from the control group, carbon tetrachloride-, 3-methylcholanthrene-, and 3,3',4,4',5-pentachlorobiphenyl (PCB126)-treated rats exhibited an EPR spectrum at g=2.40, 2.24, and 1.93, which is characteristic of P450 in a resting state. The liver of the PCB126-treate...

Au Québec et en France, les orientations politiques références législatives qui encadrent l’école inclusive sont fondées sur des valeurs de justice sociale d’équité, visant l’accès à l’éducation la réussite pour toutes tous. Cette école suppose une organisation scolaire renouvelée. La mobilisation d’Enseignants dans un rôle personne-ressource (EPR) tant au qu’en France constitue mesure ministér...

INTRODUCTION EPR imaging using nitroxides is a powerful non-invasive method for visualizing the redox status modulated by oxidative stress in vivo. Recently we successfully reduced the scan time of three-dimensional (3D) EPR imaging of nitroxides in rodents. This system enables us to obtain 3D images of nitroxide probes with a half-life of a few minutes in living mice [1]. Another advantage of ...

Significant sums of money are invested in information systems (IS) initiatives in the healthcare sector all over the world. Most countries have implemented Electronic Patient Record (EPR) systems, which are clinical IS that support documentation of examination, treatment, and care of patients. EPR systems are expected to raise the quality of care, reduce medical errors, cut waiting time and ren...

Since the first report of the enhanced permeability and retention (EPR) effect, the research in nanocarrier based antitumor drugs has been intense. The field has been devoted to treatment of cancer by exploiting EPR-based accumulation of nanocarriers in solid tumors, which for many years was considered to be a ubiquitous phenomenon. However, the understanding of differences in the EPR-effect be...

This paper seeks to examine the provisions for extended producer responsibility (EPR) within the Malaysian environmental and waste management policies and to determine its existing practice and future prospects in Malaysia. Malaysian waste generation has been increasing drastically where solid waste generation was estimated to increase from about 9.0 million tonnes in 2000 to about 10.9 million...

The application of electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy in pharmacy of melanin complexes with netilmicin and Cu(II) was presented. The continuous microwave saturation of EPR spectra of DOPA-melanin and the complexes was performed. EPR spectra were measured on an X-band (9.3 GHz) spectrometer at temperatures in the range of 105-300 K. Paramagnetic copper ions decrease the intensity...

Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy has been successfully employed to determine radiation dose using alanine. The EPR signal intensity reflects the number of stable free radicals produced, and provides a quantitative measurement of the absorbed dose. The aim of the present study was to explore whether this principle can be extended to provide information on spatial dose distribut...

The enhanced principal rank characteristic sequence (epr-sequence) of an n×n matrix is a sequence `1`2 · · ·`n, where each `k is A, S, or N according as all, some, or none of its principal minors of order k are nonzero. There has been substantial work on epr-sequences of symmetric matrices (especially real symmetric matrices) and real skew-symmetric matrices, and incidental remarks have been ma...

Health care organisations are extremely complex because they consist of heterogeneous groups of people (clinical professions, patients, managers), use advanced technology (medical devices and patient record systems), and apply many organisational and clinical routines. When introducing Electronic Patient Record systems (EPR) in health care organisations, all these aspects get affected. Using a ...
