Determination of thermal conductivity of baled agricultural biomass
(Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews, 2016)
Modeling of transport phenomena in materials with porous bed features requires thermophysical properties, such as porosity, permeability and thermal conductivity be known. The paper presents experimental data obtained in ...
Track structure modeling in liquid water: A review of the Geant4-DNA very low energy extension of the Geant4 Monte Carlo simulation toolkit
(Physica Medica -European Journal of Medical Physics, 2015)
Understanding the fundamental mechanisms involved in the induction of biological damage by ionizing radiation remains a major challenge of todays radiobiology research. The Monte Carlo simulation of physical, physicochemical ...
Preclinical discovery and development of maraviroc for the treatment of HIV
(Expert Opinion on Drug Discovery, 2015)
Introduction: Maraviroc is a first-in-class antiretroviral (ARV) drug acting on a host cell target (CCR5), which blocks the entry of the HIV virus into the cell. Maraviroc is currently indicated for combination ARV treatment ...
The role of pulse sequences in controlling ultrafast intramolecular dynamics with four-wave mixing
(International Reviews in Physical Chemistry, 2000)
This article seeks to provide a fundamental understanding of time-resolved four-wave mixing (FWM) processes based on a large body of experimental measurements on a model system consisting of isolated iodine molecules. The ...
Radiopharmaceutical complexes of technetium and tin: Physicochemical and biochemical research
(Journal of Radioanalytical and Nuclear Chemistry, 1999)
The list of the developed Tc-99m-kits in our research center is given, while the whole research work as a basis of Tc-99m scanning agents production is described. Research involved physico-chemical studies of both types ...
Antidepressant Action on Mitochondrial Dysfunction in Psychiatric Disorders
(Drug Development Research, 2016)
Mitochondria are cell organelles crucial to the production of cellular energy. Several lines of evidence have indicated that mitochondrial dysfunction could be related to the pathophysiology of CNS diseases including bipolar ...
Dense and near-net-shape fabrication of Si3N4 ceramics
(Materials Science and Engineering A: Structural Materials Properties Microstructure and Processing, 2009)
With silicon nitride significant progress has been made in order to search for fully dense, strong, reliable structural ceramics to find wide use in applications at high temperatures which are allowing new and innovative ...
EACVI/EHRA Expert Consensus Document on the role of multi-modality imaging for the evaluation of patients with atrial fibrillation
(European Heart Journal - Cardiovascular Imaging, 2016)
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the commonest cardiac rhythm disorder. Evaluation of patients with AF requires an electrocardiogram, but imaging techniques should be considered for defining management and driving treatment. ...
Ship stability, dynamics and safety: Status and perspectives from a review of recent STAB conferences and ISSW events
(Ocean Engineering, 2016)
In Naval Architecture, the concept of stability has a very wide meaning, embracing ship stability fundamentals with ship dynamics and ultimately ship safety. As such, the subject is of paramount importance for its wide ...
Oxidative and nitrosative stress pathways in the brain of socially isolated adult male rats demonstrating depressive- and anxiety-like symptoms
(Brain Structure and Function, 2017)
Various stressors may disrupt the redox homeostasis of an organism by causing oxidative and nitrosative stress that may activate stressor-specific pathways and provoke specific responses. Chronic social isolation (CSIS) ...
