Recent research regarding 2-hydroxylated fatty acids (2OHFAs) showed clear evidence of their benefits in the treatment of cancer, inflammation, and neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's disease. Monolayer compressibility isotherms and isothermal titration calorimetry of 2OHFA (C18-C22) in phosphatidylcholine/phosphatidylethanolamine/sphingomyelin/cholesterol (1:1:1:1 mole ratio), a mi...

The dipole component of the heart electric field has been analyzed in the context of distribution of the action potential onset timing and its duration. It has been demonstrated that the process of repolarization can be visualized as a sequence of layers with equal action potential (AP) completion time. Dipole moments of these layers can be calculated from the repolarization part of VCG and vis...

Dipole potential is the potential difference within the membrane bilayer, which originates due to the nonrandom arrangement of lipid dipoles and water molecules at the membrane interface. Although dipole potential is generally used in the context of bilayer membranes, the nonrandom arrangement of amphiphiles and water dipoles would also contribute to dipole potential in organized molecular asse...

The authors suggest that atomic experiments measuring the interference between magnetic-dipole and electric-field-induced electric-dipole transition amplitudes provide a valuable system to study magnetoelectric Jones effects.

Ž . ABSTRACT: The possibility of binding two electrons by the fixed finite dipole FFD potential due to two point charges qqe and yqe separated by the distance R is explored at the full configuration interaction level with extended basis sets. The critical value of the dipole moment m s qR required to bind two electrons tends to infinity for small q Ž . Ž q f 0.91e and decreases precipitously as...

A single-dipole model and a two-dipole model have been examined to approximate the electrical activity of heart; positions as well as vector components of these dipoles were estimated from the body surface potential distribution that was measured with 64 electrodes arranged on the chest. The "residue" has been defined as a measure for how much potential component is left that cannot be attribut...
