S106 is a bipolar nebula illuminated and excited by a central star called S106 IR. Depending on its distance (literature values range from 500 pc to 5.7 kpc) this star is of late O to early B spectral type. There is evidence that S106 is physically associated with the molecular cloud complex of Cygnus X. The bipolar nebula is the dominant feature in an embedded cluster of young stars forming in...

Freeze-fracture analysis of the neural connections in the outer plexiform layer of the retina of primates (Macaca mulatta and Macaca arctoides) demonstrates a remarkable diversity in the internal structure of the synaptic membranes. In the invaginating synapses of cone pedicles, the plasma membrane of the photoreceptor ending contains an aggregate of A-face particles, a hexagonal array of synap...

OBJECTIVE Conventional transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) uses a monopolar electrocautery system in which the current passes from the active electrode through the patient's body towards the return plate and may cause distant negative effects. In this study a new developed resection device, the Vista system, using a bipolar electrocautery system and 0.9% sodium chloride solution for ...

We have proposed previously a kinetochore motor-polar ejection model for chromosome congression to the metaphase plate where forces generated at the kinetochore are antagonized by away-from-the pole forces generated within each half-spindle on the chromosome arms. This model was based in large part on observations of the behavior of chromosomes on monopolar spindles. In these cells chromosomes ...

Vertical n-p-n and lateral p-n-p transistor structures of an integrated circuit are studied using an electrolytic tank analogue and it is shown that the presence of a proper field plate extending from the collector-base junction over most of the base surface will improve the current-gain factor considerably. Experimental results of the analogue study, simulating typical carrier lifetimes and ty...

In this study, the flow channels of a PEM fuel cell are fabricated by the EMM process. The parametric effects of the process are studied by both numerical simulation and experimental tests. For the numerical simulation, the multiphysics model, consisting of electrical field, convection, and diffusion phenomena is applied using COMSOL software. COMSOL software is used to predict the parametric e...

aim and background: mood disorders are a significant group of psychiatric disorders. bipolar spectrum disorders are mood disorders that usually remain unrecognized and subsequently undertreated. one of the most useful screening instruments for underdiagnosed bipolar disorders is the mood disorder questionnaire (mdq). this paper presented the persian version and psychometric properties of mdq fo...

Introduction:Cold dissection (CD) and bipolar cautery dissection (BCD) techniques are two common surgical tonsillectomy procedures used in the clinic. Obstruction has become more prevalent as the major surgical indication and is most prominently observed in younger children.Case Report:  In this report, we aimed to explain the abovementioned surgical techniques in detail and compare the results...
