A new method recently used for measuring the temperature is using tympanic thermometer. The aim of this study was to compare the accuracy of this method with rectal and axillary measurement in children less than 6 years old. A total of 220 pair ears, axillaries, and rectal sites were used to determine the body temperature in patients aged between 3 months to 6 years who referred to Emergency De...

Two methods to detect the induction of nondisjunction with a diploid stable strain of A. nidulans are described. The first method gives only qualitative results, while the second method is quantitative and dose-effect curves can be done. Some physiological parameters affecting the induction of nondisjunction can also be studied, because either quiescent or germinating conidia can be treated wit...

There are three general lower bound techniques for the crossing numbers of graphs: the Crossing Lemma, the bisection method and the embedding method. In this contribution, we present their adaptations to the minor crossing number. Using the adapted bounds, we improve on the known bounds on the minor crossing number of hypercubes. We also point out relations of the minor crossing number to strin...

considering a temperature dependent two-level quantum system, we have numerically solved the landau-zener transition problem. the method includes the incorporation of temperature effect as a thermal noise added schrödinger equation for the construction of the hamiltonian. here, the obtained results which describe the changes in the system including the quantum states and the transition probabil...

buprenorphine is a partial mu agonist and kappa antagonist which is used for the treatment of pain and opioid addiction. a mixture of buprenorphine hydrochloride and naloxone hydrochloride has been approved for the treatment of opioid dependence.in this study a third order derivative spectrophotometric method based on zero-crossing technique has been used for the simultaneous determination of b...

This paper presents a novel predictive digital control method for boundary conduction mode PFC converters without the need for detecting the inductor current. In the proposed method, the inductor current is predicted by analytical equations instead of being detected by a sensing-resistor. The predicted zero-crossing point of the inductor current is determined by the values of the input voltage,...
