Microwave Resonance Therapy (MRT) is a novel medical treatment representing a synthesis of the ancient Chinese traditional knowledge in medicine (acupuncture) and recent breakthroughs in biophysics. MRT affects the appropriate ...

In this work three 1-alkyl-3-ethylimidazolium bromide ionic liquids (alkyl = ethyl, hexyl and octyl) were synthesized applying both, conventional and microwave assisted synthetic paths. The phase diagrams for aqueous ...

Composite coatings based on lignin, obtained by electrophoretic deposition (EPD) on titanium, were investigated. The aim of this work was to produce hydroxyapatite/lignin (HAP/Lig) coatings on titanium and to investigate ...

Increased intake of fructose in humans and laboratory animals is demonstrated to be a risk factor for development of metabolic disorders (insulin resistance, metabolic syndrome, type 2 diabetes) and cardiovascular diseases. ...

The Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) detector is described. The detector operates at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN. It was conceived to study proton-proton (and lead-lead) collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 14 ...

A survey of radium activity concentrations in well and spring waters in Serbia was conducted and their correlations with geological formations were analysed. Water samples were collected from 170 sampling sites and analysed ...

An approach to various metal hydrides based on electronic principles is presented. The effective medium theory ( EMT) is used to illustrate fundamental aspects of metal-hydrogen interaction and clarify the most important ...

Plastic response and successful adaptation to stress are of particular importance in the hippocampus, where chronic stress may cause cell death instead of neural remodeling. Structural modifications that occur both in the ...

Background: Mounting evidence demonstrates enhanced systemic levels of inflammatory mediators in depression, indicating that inflammation may play a role in the etiology and course of mood disorders. Indeed, proinflammatory ...
