VARIATIONAL COMPUTATIONS FOR EXCITONS IN QUANTUM DOTS: A QUANTUM MONTE CARLO STUDY
(WORLD SCIENTIFIC PUBL CO PTE LTD, 2011)
A study of variational wave functions for calculation of the ground-state energies of excitons confined in a two-dimensional (2D) disc-like and three-dimensional (3D) spherical parabolic GaAs quantum dots (QDs) is presented. ...
Acute Effects of Passive Smoking on Endothelial Function
(SAGE PUBLICATIONS INC, 2011)
Impairment of endothelial functions has been shown to occur after acute and chronic exposure to passive smoking (PS), as assessed by flow-mediated dilatation (FMD) of the brachial artery. A total of 61 participants, 30 ...
Synthesis and use of trans-dichlorido-tetrakis-(N-R-imidazole)nickel(II) complexes in Kumada-Tamao-Corriu cross-coupling reactions
(PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2011)
Two dichlorido-tetrakis-(N-R-imidazole)nickel(II) complexes (R = 2,6-diisopropylphenyl (1): methyl (2)) have been synthesised. A single crystal X-ray diffraction study was carried out for 1, which revealed a centrosymmetric ...
Comparison of local and systemic alendronate on distraction osteogenesis
(CHURCHILL LIVINGSTONE, 2011)
This study compared the effect of systemic and local administration of alendronate on distraction osteogenesis in rabbit mandibles. Thirty New Zealand white rabbits were allocated to 3 groups: 10 rabbits for systemic ...
In Vitro Amoebicidal Activity of a Ceragenin, Cationic Steroid Antibiotic-13, Against Acanthamoeba castellanii and Its Cytotoxic Potential
(MARY ANN LIEBERT INC, 2011)
Acanthamoeba is a free-living amoeba causing a potentially blinding infection of the cornea. Acanthamoeba keratitis is difficult to treat, without total efficacy in some patients because of cysts that are less susceptible ...
Influence of Operational Parameters and Low Nickel Concentrations on Partial Nitrification in a Submerged Biofilter
(HUMANA PRESS INC, 2011)
The effect of Ni(2+) concentrations on ammonium oxidation was studied in a batch and partial bionitrification reactor (PBNR). The nitrification rates up to the concentration of 0.1 mg Ni(2+)/l were close to those without ...
CCR2 Polymorphism in Chronic Renal Failure Patients Requiring Long-Term Hemodialysis
(JAPAN SOC INTERNAL MEDICINE, 2011)
Objective A number of chemokines and chemokine receptors are produced by intrinsic renal cells as well as by infiltrating cells during renal inflammation. The CCR2 chemokine receptor mediates leukocyte chemoattraction in ...

(W B SAUNDERS CO-ELSEVIER INC, 2011)
Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate the distribution and absorption of local anesthetic solutions in inferior alveolar nerve block using magnetic resonance imaging. Materials and Methods: Forty healthy volunteers ...
Geophysical Variations During the Total Solar Eclipse in 2006 in Turkey
(SCIENTIFIC TECHNICAL RESEARCH COUNCIL TURKEY-TUBITAK, 2011)
It has been observed that some geophysical parameters could be changed during a solar eclipse. We have therefore measured gravity and magnetic fields during solar eclipses. We also measured the gravity field during the ...
