The adhesion of human cervical cancer (HeLa) cells to a glass matrix is evaluated following their irradiation in a suspension with a pulsed near-infrared (IR) light-emitting diode (wavelength 820 nm, pulse repetition frequency 10 Hz, irradiation dose 16-120 J/m2) when melatonin (4 x 10(-11) to 4 x 10(-5) m) is added to cell suspension immediately before or after the irradiation. Also, the depen...

We study the spectrum of the Poincaré variational problem for two close to touching inclusions in IR. We derive the asymptotics of its eigenvalues as the distance between the inclusions tends to zero.

The transient IR absorption spectrum for UV-excited i-motif DNA is reported for the first time and found to possess complex dynamics pointing to multiple decay processes, including possible charge transfer between packed hemi-protonated C bases.

OBJECTIVES The atypical antipsychotic quetiapine is a first-line treatment for schizophrenia. This non-interventional study (NCT01212575) evaluated the clinical use of its two formulations, extended release (XR) and immediate release (IR), in outpatients with schizophrenia spectrum disorder. METHODS Patients who had received at least one dose of quetiapine XR and/or IR were included. A dosage...

An anthraquinone-based fluorescent quencher is described that is applicable to fluorophores throughout the visible spectrum and into the near IR. This species has been used to construct a palate of multicolour sensors of proteolysis and photolysis.

schiff base sal-2,5-clan = 2-(2,5-dichlorobenzylideneamino)phenol used as a new precursor for preparation of poly-2-(2,5-dichlorobenzylideneamino)phenol (pdcbap). in an aqueous alkaline medium, naocl oxidant is capable of oxidative poly-condensation reaction (op). both sal-2,5-clan and pdcbap were characterized by solubility tests, ft-ir, 1h-nmr spectroscopy and tg-dta studies. ft-ir and 1h-nmr...

The present study was aimed at analysis of bioactive constituents of leaves from Abutilon indicum. The ethyl acetate extract of the leaves were subjected to Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and Gas chromatographymass spectroscopic (GCMS) analysis. GC-MS analysis of plant extract was performed using a Perkin-Elmer GC Clarus 500 system and Interpretation on mass spectrum GC-MS was ...

The far-infrared spectroscopy of the troposphere (FIRST) instrument is a Fourier transform spectrometer developed to measure the Earth's thermal emission spectrum with a particular emphasis on far-infrared (far-IR) wavelengths greater than 15 μm. FIRST was developed under NASA's Instrument Incubator Program to demonstrate technology for providing measurements from 10 to 100 μm (1000 to 100 cm(-...

in this paper, the mer-co(nh3)3(no2)3 complex was used as a new precursor for synthesizing spinel-type cobalt oxide nanoparticles (co3o4nps).thermal decomposition of the complex at low temperature (175 °c) resulted in the co3o4nps without using expensive and toxic solvents or complicated equipment. xrd, ft-ir, sem, edx, and tem were employed to characterize the product, and its optical and magn...
