Nowadays, increasingly stricter regulations on emission reduction are inducing rapid developments in combustion science. Low-temperature (LTC) is an advanced technology that increases engine’s thermal efficiency and even provides low emissions of nitrogen oxides (NOx) particulate matter (PM). The often uses early direct injections to achieve sufficient mixture homogeneity. This leads increasing...

UNLABELLED Internal radiation therapy using intrahepatic arterial injection of 90Y-labeled glass microspheres (90Y-microspheres) has proven to be a promising therapeutic modality for inoperative liver tumor. Recently, direct intratumoral injection of 90Y-microspheres has been performed with even more encouraging results. The purpose of this study was to compare the treatment efficacy of these 2...

A novel pressure-driven sample injection method was developed as an alternative to electrokinetic injection, and electrophoretic separation was carried out on a microfabricated device employing this method. This method enables a defined volume of liquid dispensing, followed by instantaneous injection driven by pneumatic pressure, greatly simplifying the injection procedure. A particular microst...
