Growing demand of invisible braces by esthetically conscious patients has led to remarkable inventions in materials for esthetic labial archwires. Archwires with excellent optical clarity and mechanical properties comparable to conventional archwires have been manufactured by almost all the leading companies of orthodontic products in the past two decades, but their clinical use is still limite...

The change of the compressibility at the glass transition Tg is evaluated from pressure experiments in the liquid and the glassy state of the ZrTiCuNiBe bulk metallic glass forming system. Via the enthalpy recovery method, we derive an increase of Tg with pressure of 3.6 KyGPa. Comparing the changes of the compressibility, the specific heat capacity, and the thermal expansion coefficient at Tg,...

fact (it is alternately stated that the DSCT goes to cerebellum by its superior peduncle and its inferior peduncle); but these are usually easily recognized, and do not detract greatly from the overall value. This slender volume should be most useful to anyone who wants to know about primate spinal cord anatomy, and should be in medical school libraries, neurology, neurosurgery, physiology, psy...

Biochemistry can be defined as the science of the chemical basis of life (Gk bios “life”). The cell is the structural unit of living systems. Thus, biochemistry can also be described as the science of the chemical constituents of living cells and of the reactions and processes they undergo. By this definition, biochemistry encompasses large areas of cell biology, molecular biology, and molecula...
