background:accumulative research is in progress to clarify clinical aspects of gbv-c. the possibility of interaction between hcv and gbv-c as well as its consequence on development of liver diseases is the most important clinical aspect which encourages researchers to develop a rapid and cost effective technique for simultaneous detection of both viruses.methods: in this study, a sybr green rea...

background: non-cardiac chest pain (nccp) presents as a frequent diagnostic challenge, with patients tending to use a disproportionate level of health care resources. gastroesophageal reflux disease (gerd) is the most frequent cause of nccp. thus the typical symptoms of reflux like heartburn and regurgitation, when present as predominant symptoms are quite specific for diagnosing gerd patients ...

Security is a challenging task in software engineering. Enforcing security policies should be taken care of during the early phases of the software development life cycle to more efficiently integrate security into software. To this end, we present in this paper an aspect-oriented modeling approach for specifying and integrating security solutions into UML design models. The proposed approach c...

Herein we describe a versatile and readily scalable approach for the fabrication of particles with a variety of shapes and sizes from a single master template by augmenting the particle replication in nonwetting templates (PRINT) method with mechanical elongation. Repetition of the elongation steps in one direction leads to the fabrication of linear particles with high aspect ratio (AR), over 4...
