Effect of corrosive environments and thermocycling on the attractive force of four types of dental magnetic attachments
(ELSEVIER TAIWAN, 2013)
Background/purpose: One of the problems that has limited magnets' wide acceptance by clinicians is their low corrosion resistance. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of corrosive environments and ...
Surface Plasmon Resonance Biosensors: Sensor Response Modeling
(AMER SCIENTIFIC PUBLISHERS, 2013)
Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR) techniques are widely used in various chemical and biological sensors. This technique is also suitable for macromolecular interaction studies at solid/liquid interfaces. As it is being a ...
The long-term effects of extracorporeal shock waves on the epiphysis of the adolescent rat
(SPRINGER JAPAN KK, 2013)
Extracorporeal shock waves (ESW) have been successfully used to treat musculoskeletal injuries, tendinopathy, and plantar fasciitis. Different side effects of high-energy ESWT on bones, tendons, nerves, epiphysis, and ...
Diagnostic usefulness of pregnancy-associated plasma protein-A in suspected pulmonary embolism
(BIOMED CENTRAL LTD, 2013)
Background: The role of biomarkers for prognostication and diagnosis of pulmonary embolism (PE) is increasing. It has been reported that pregnancy-associated plasma protein-A (PAPP-A) can be used as a proatherosclerotic ...
NEW PARAMETERS FOR NUCLEAR CHARGE RADIUS FORMULAS
(WYDAWNICTWO UNIWERSYTETU JAGIELLONSKIEGO, 2013)
Parameters of widely used nuclear rms charge radius formulas have been refitted based on the latest experimental data for about 900 nuclei. It has been seen that the new parameters in the formulas give better results than ...

(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2013)
Objectives: The Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) virus can spread from person to person and may cause nosocomial outbreaks among healthcare workers (HCWs). The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention have ...
On the boundary value problem for the Sturm-Liouville equation with the discontinuous coefficient
(WILEY-BLACKWELL, 2013)
We consider a boundary value problem for the Sturm-Liouville equation with piecewise-constant leading coefficient. We prove that some integral representations for the solutions of the considered equation can be obtained ...
Amine-modified maleic anhydride containing terpolymers for the adsorption of uranyl ion in aqueous solutions
(SPRINGER, 2013)
Maleic anhydride-styrene-methyl methacrylate (MA-S-MM) terpolymer was prepared. It was modified by ethylenediamine (EDA) and diethylenetriamine (DETA) in order to get cross-linked polymers bearing carboxyl and amine groups. ...
