Sulfotransferase 1A1 (SULT1A1) polymorphism and susceptibility to primary brain tumors
(SPRINGER, 2008)
Purpose Sulfotransferase 1A1 is a member of sulfotransferase family that plays an important role in the biotransformation of numerous carcinogenic and mutagenic compounds through sulfation. The present study has investigated ...
Investigation of mixed convection heat transfer in a horizontal channel with discrete heat sources at the top and at the bottom
(PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2006)
Mixed convection heat transfer from arrays of discrete heat sources inside a horizontal channel has been investigated experimentally. Each of the lower and upper surfaces of the channel was equipped with 8 x 4 flush mounted ...
Combination of different size distributions for mineral particles by applying experimentally determined apparent mean shape factor
(TAYLOR & FRANCIS INC, 2008)
As is well known, the behavior of systems of fine particles is strongly dependent on the size of the individual particles, and the size effects become increasingly important as the particles become progressively smaller. ...
Analysis of vascular endothelial growth factor gene 936 C/T polymorphism in patients with familial Mediterranean fever
(WILEY, 2008)
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a cytokine that promotes endothelial cell proliferation, leucocyte chemotaxis and expression of adhesion molecules and is a major mediator of vascular permeability. It has been ...
Sympathetic skin responses in reflex sympathetic dystrophy
(SPRINGER HEIDELBERG, 2006)
This study was performed to determine the utility of sympathetic skin response (SSR) in evaluating the sympathetic function and to follow up the effects of sympathetic blockade in reflex sympathetic dystrophy (RSD). Thirty ...
Determining the factors affecting the consumers' willingness to pay higher prices for genetically unmodified products Tomato case study in Turkey
(EMERALD GROUP PUBLISHING LIMITED, 2009)
Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to determine the factors affecting the consumers' willingness to pay higher prices for genetically unmodified products. Design/methodology/approach - Tomato was selected as a model ...
Fracture resistance of the buccal cusps of root filled maxillary premolar teeth restored with various techniques
(WILEY, 2007)
Aim To compare the cusp fracture resistance of teeth restored with composite resins and two post systems. Methodology Eighty extracted single-rooted human maxillary premolars were randomly assigned to eight groups (n = ...
Evaluation of laser treatment on reline-base composites
(TAYLOR & FRANCIS LTD, 2007)
The effects of different laser treatments on some mechanical properties of acrylic resin and soft liner were investigated. A total of 60 test specimens were fabricated according to test requirements. The specimens were ...
Increasing selectivity in coal flotation by controlling impeller speed and collector concentration
(TAYLOR & FRANCIS INC, 2005)
Batch flotation experiments were conducted using a bituminous coal. It was found out that pulp density and especially impeller speed had significant influences on coal flotation performance, selectivity and rate. Products ...
Photocatalytic oxidative degradation of 2-methylthiophene in suspensions of TiO2: identification of intermediates and degradation pathways
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE SA, 2001)
The photocatalytic oxidative degradation of 2-methylthiophene has been investigated in aqueous suspensions of TiO2. The nature of the degradation products was investigated using GC/MS. The effects of the nature of the ...
