<span lang="EN-GB">Lung sound is one indicator of abnormalities in the lungs and respiratory tract. Research for automatic lung classification has become interests researchers because disease diseases with most sufferers world. The use sounds as a source information ease data acquisition auscultation standard method examining pulmonary function. This study simulated potential Higuchi frac...

Quantitative applications of the Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR), also known as Quantitative-PCR (Q-PCR) are intended either to determine the number of copies of a given nucleic acid sequence, or more generally, to determine the relative abundance of two sequences. Current methods to determine exact numbers of molecules overcome the determination of the amplification rate by assuming identical ...

This article focuses on the study of the release rate in a family of modified silica mesoporous supports. A collection of solids containing ethyl, butyl, hexyl, octyl, decyl, octadecyl, docosyl, and triacontyl groups anchored on the pore outlets of mesoporous MCM-41 has been prepared and characterized. Controlled release from pore voids has been studied through the delivery of the dye complex t...

The “anomalous solubility behavior at higher pH values” of several acidic drugs originally studied by Higuchi et al. in 1953 [1], but hitherto not fully rationalized, has been re-analyzed using a novel solubilitypH analysis computer program, pDISOL-X TM . The program internally derives implicit solubility equations, given a set of proposed equilibria and constants (iteratively refined by weight...

HIGucIiI et al. (1977) proposed the existence of Tl-rich and Tl-poor “mysterite” to explain Tl and Bi contents of dark clasts in the Supuhee H6 chondrite and of bulk Supuhee. They suggested that these two components formed by gas-dust fractionation during condensation. An aliquot of one of the clasts studied by Higuchi et al. and found to contain Tl-poor mysterite was analyzed by instrumental n...

In this paper, we have developed a method to compute fractal dimension (FD) of discrete time signals, in the time domain, by modifying the box-counting method. The size of the box is dependent on the sampling frequency of the signal. The number of boxes required to completely cover the signal are obtained at multiple time resolutions. The time resolutions are made coarse by decimating the signa...

Enzymatically crossliked gelatin hydrogel was submitted to two different drying methods: air drying and freeze drying. The resulting polymeric tridimensional arrangement (compact or porous, respectively) led to different thermal and swelling properties. Significant differences (p < 0.05) on thermal and mechanical characteristics as well as swelling in non-enzymatic gastric and intestinal simula...
