The analysis and useful gas sensing properties of capillary-attached gas sensor (CGS) have recently been investigated. The aim of the present work was to investigate the possibility of applying CGS as single selective sensor in detecting organic gases. A CGS samples were fabricated and tested by exposure to five different flammable target gases, hydrogen, methanol, ethanol, acetone and 1-butano...

Here we present an efficient calculation of comprehensive Gröbner systems to derive specific conditions for neural circuits as well as electric circuits. Comprehensive Gröbner systems (CGS) have been applied to problems with a small number of parameters such as the automatic geometric theorem proving and the inverse kinematics problem of a robot arm. In CGS, however, a larger number of paramete...

PURPOSE The aim of this paper was to explore the applicability of dementia clinical guidelines (CGs) to older patients, to patients with one or several comorbidities, and to both targets in order to evaluate if an association between the applicability and quality of the CGs exists. MATERIALS AND METHODS A systematic search strategy conducted on electronic databases identified CGs on diagnosis...

The conjugate gradient squared (CGS) algorithm is a Krylov subspace algorithm that can be used to obtain fast solutions for linear systems (Ax = b) with complex nonsymmetric, very large, and very sparse coeecient matrices (A). By considering electromagnetic scattering problems as examples, a study of the performance and scalability of this algorithm on two MIMD machines is presented. A modiied ...

Background—We investigated the hemodynamic and coronary vasodilatory effects of CGS-21680, a potent selective adenosine A2A agonist, as well as its potential use as a new stress modality in combination with perfusion scintigraphy. Methods and Results—A stenosis of the left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD) was produced in dogs to reduce the reactive hyperemic response to ,20%. Adenosine...

Vocal fold scar remains a therapeutic challenge. Basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) was reported to have regenerative effects for vocal fold scar, although it has the disadvantage of rapid absorption in vivo. A collagen-gelatin sponge (CGS) can compensate for the disadvantage by providing a sustained release system. The current study evaluated the efficacy of CGS combined with bFGF on vocal ...

We estimate the amount of the missing baryons detected by the Planck measurements of the cosmic microwave background in the direction of central galaxies (CGs) identified in the Sloan galaxy survey. The peculiar motion of the gas inside and around the CGs unveils values of the Thomson optical depth τ(T) in the range 0.2-2×10(-4), indicating that the regions probed around CGs contain roughly hal...

Selenium (Se) can be assimilated and volatilized via the sulfate assimilation pathway. Cystathionine-gamma-synthase (CGS) is thought to catalyze the synthesis of Se-cystathionine from Se-cysteine, the first step in the conversion of Se-cysteine to volatile dimethylselenide. Here the hypothesis was tested that CGS is a rate-limiting enzyme for Se volatilization. Cystathionine-gamma-synthase from...
