The mean hospital stay was 2.8±1.5 (range, 2-5) days, with a median follow-up of 20 (range, 8-32) months, there was no recurrence. Conclusions: Our homemade single port device is costeffective and more flexible to deal with bilateral renal cysts especially ventral ...

Suggested citation: Ribeiro JD. Aerosols and spacers for acute asthma in children. Evolution and time to change the routine. J Pediatr (Rio J). 2005;81:274-6. Several studies have shown that valved (metal or plastic) spacers and, even homemade spacers (made out of bottles and plastic cups), are equivalent to or more advantageous than nebulizers for the delivery of medication in acute asthma att...

The electrodeposition of gold colloidal nanoparticles on a silicon wafer in a uniform electric field is investigated using scanning electron microscopy and homemade electrochemical cells. Dense and uniform distributions of particles are obtained with no aggregation. The evolution of surface particle density is analyzed in relation to several parameters: applied voltage, electric field, exchange...

We report on the use of a fiber-based Mueller-matrix optical coherence tomography (OCT) system with continuous source-polarization modulation for in vivo imaging of early stages of skin cancer in SENCAR mice. A homemade hand-held probe with integrated optical scanning and beam delivering optics was coupled in the sample arm. The OCT images show the morphological changes in skin resulting from p...

We have controlled the relative phase between two successively generated coherent anti-Stokes Raman-scattering signals with a homemade phase-shifting unit, the thickness of which could be automatically adjusted as the wavelength of Stokes beam scanned in a wide spectral range. With this technique we have recovered the Q-branch spectrum of carbon monoxide distorted by a large nonresonant contrib...

Introduction Accumulation of C. botulinum in soil occurs through excretion of bacterial spores from the intestines of humans, animals, birds and fish. In Georgia, during the winter season, the population consumes homemade vegetable preserves, which are made of locally produced (as well as imported) vegetables. Historical surveys confirmed that the presence of C. botulinum in the soil is widespr...

From Figure A, protein bands on SurePAGE were more evenly distributed compared to competitor B’s Tris-Glycine gel, in which proteins in the middle parts of the gel were clustered. In addition, more bands were visualized on SurePAGE compared to both competitor B and homemade Tris-Glycine gels (zoomed panel). Lastly, SurePAGE offers slightly better resolution compared to Competitor T’s Bis-Tris g...
