Straight line’s scan conversion and drawing is a major field in computer graphics. Algorithm’s time computation is very important. Nowadays, most of research papers suggest improvements of the DDA method that was first presented by J. Bresenham. But other approaches exist as well like combinatory analysis and linguistic methods. Both of them use multiple string copies that slow down the efficie...

We investigated molecular dissociation induced by 10-keV X-ray irradiation in dense ice at pressures up to 40 GPa at 300 K. The dissociation yield estimated from the oxygen K-edge X-ray Raman spectra, showed that the molecular dissociation was enhanced up to 14 GPa and gradually suppressed on further compression to 40 GPa. The molecular dissociation was detected for a rather narrow pressure spa...

Background: Dental caries is one of the most common oral diseases in pre-school children. Several factors can affect caries process. Aim of this study was comparison of some of the chemical properties of saliva such as total antioxidant capacity, total protein, pH, nitric oxide level in caries free (CF), and caries active (CA) children.<...

Ascorbic acid has been reported to extend replicative life span of human embryonic fibroblast (HEF). Since the detailed molecular mechanism of this phenomenon has not been investigated, we attempted to elucidate. Continuous treatment of HEF cells with ascorbic acid (at 200 microM) from 40 population doubling (PD) increased maximum PD numbers by 18% and lowered SA-beta-gal positive staining, an ...

OBJECTIVE Age at menopause is an important determinant of future health outcomes, but little is known about its relationship with type 2 diabetes. We examined the associations of menopausal age and reproductive life span (menopausal age minus menarcheal age) with diabetes risk. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Data were obtained from the InterAct study, a prospective case-cohort study nested withi...

Achieving high quality of a coated food product is mostly dependent on the characteristics of the food material to be coated, the properties of the components in the coating solution, and the obtained coating material. In the present study, usability and effectiveness of various components as well as their concentrations were assessed to produce an effective coating material. For this purpose, ...

Over 40% of old and new drug molecules are implicated with poor oral bioavailability due to poor drug solubility in aqueous environment of gastro-intestinal lumen. Chemical methods to improve drug solubility are again limited, because any drastic change in the chemistry of molecules might result into loss of pharmacophore and thus loss of biological activity. Megesterol acetate, a synthetic der...
