Advances in biotechnology have led to an accelerated discovery of macromolecular therapeutics such as peptides, proteins and polynucleotides. These macromolecules can be targeted against a variety of diseases, each requiring delivery to a well-defined compartment of the body. As such therapeutics are often prone to degradation before reaching their target site, or do not reach their target site...

This paper presents a low speed drive system with simple and reliable construction, which can be used in an area where there is no power supply (isolated areas, forests, agricultural fields, etc.) operates on the basis of two heat sources, one from solar radiation provided by water. Alternatively, this to recover energy wastewater industry. The operation role parameters that influence value rot...

Introduction: Diagnosis, prediction and control of oral lesions is usually done classically based on clinical signs and histopathologic features. Due to lack of timely diagnosis in all conventional methods or differential diagnosis, biopsy of patient is needed. Therefore, the patient might be irritated. So, an intelligent method for quick and accurate diagnosis would be crucial. Intelligent sys...

The Materials Science and Engineering Laboratory (MSEL) of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), the Office of Industrial Programs of the Department of Energy (DOE), and the American Iron and Steel Institute (AISI) co-sponsored a Workshop on Intelligent Processing for Primary Metals held at NIST on August 29-30, 1989. Attendance was by invitation and the more than 80 partic...

Intelligent drug-delivery systems are described as novel technological innovations and clinical approaches to improve conventional treatments. These systems differ in methodology of therapeutic administration, intricacy, materials and patient compliance to address numerous clinical conditions that require various pharmacological therapies. Drug delivery systems (DDS) capable of releasing an act...
