Blue-light induced accumulation of reactive oxygen species is a consequence of the Drosophila cryptochrome photocycle
(2017-03)
Cryptochromes are evolutionarily conserved blue-light absorbing flavoproteins which participate in many important cellular processes including in entrainment of the circadian clock in plants, Drosophila and humans. Drosophila ...
Optimal Transfer Point Locations in Two-Stage Distribution Systems
(2017-12-07)
Limited range of emerging delivery vehicles, speci cally unmanned aerial systems, creates gaps in last mile retail distribution networks and excludes signi cant numbers of potential customers. Implementing a two-stage ...
Theranostic oxygen delivery using ultrasound and microbubbles
(2012)
Means to overcome tumor hypoxia have been the subject of clinical investigations since the 1960's; however these studies have yet to find a treatment which is widely accepted. It has been known for nearly a century that ...

A compact energy-independent CZT-based gamma camera
(2017-08-09)
Conventional gamma cameras are heavy and occupy large volume for all required hardware components. Direct-conversion solid-state detectors like cadmium zinc telluride (CZT) enable a compact design of gamma cameras. In ...
Developing the Three Dimensional Tumor Model for Melanoma Drug Screening
(2016-12)
Two-dimensional (2D) Tissue Culture Treated Plastic (TCTP) is widely used for
cancer drug screening and has dominated the field for a long time. Compared with
traditional two dimensional cell culture, a three dimensional ...
Effects of normal and abnormal loading conditions on morphogenesis of the prenatal hip joint: application to hip dysplasia
(2015-06-30)
Joint morphogenesis is an important phase of prenatal joint development during which the opposing cartilaginous rudiments acquire their reciprocal and interlocking shapes. At an early stage of development, the prenatal hip ...
Enhanced ablation with a femtosecond-nanosecond dual-pulse
(2018-02-19)
Single-shot ablation of GaAs samples by a collinear femtosecond-nanosecond (fs-ns) dual-pulse is investigated. Significantly enhanced material removal is achieved by optimally combining a single 8 ns pulse at 1064 nm and ...
Synthesis and Characterization of 3-D Tissue Engineered Tumor Models for Melanoma Study and Extracellular Matrix Investigation
(2017-05)
Introduction: Melanoma is the deadliest form of skin cancer, projected to claim over 9,700
American lives and necessitate $3.3 billion in care and treatment costs in 2017. In order to reduce
the socioeconomic burdens and ...
Delivery of Antioxidant and Anti-inflammatory Agents for Tissue Engineered Vascular Grafts
(2017-09-21)
The treatment of patients with severe coronary and peripheral artery disease represents a significant clinical need, especially for those patients that require a bypass graft and do not have viable veins for autologous ...
