Seasonal variations of naturally occurring radionuclides and 137cs in the leaves of deciduous tree species at sites of background radioactivity levels
(Romanian Journal of Physics, 2019)
Activity concentration of natural radionuclides and 137Cs were studied in leaves of the deciduous trees. In the spring and autumn season, leaves were collected in the area of normal background radiation levels represented ...
Conserved HA-peptide NG34 formulated in pCMV-CTLA4-Ig reduces viral shedding in pigs after a heterosubtypic influenza virus SwH3N2 challenge
(PLOS One, 2019)
Swine influenza viruses (SIVs), the causal agents of swine influenza, are not only important to control due to the economic losses in the swine industry, but also can be pandemic pathogens. Vaccination is one of the most ...
Custom-built thermometry apparatus and luminescence intensity ratio thermometry of ZrO 2 :Eu 3+ and Nb 2 O 5 :Eu 3+
(Measurement Science and Technology, 2019)
A complete apparatus for luminescence thermometry has been built comprising a programmable hot-plate up to 400 °C, a hot/cold plate 0 °C-80 °C, a control circuit with thermocouple feedback, a platinum resistance thermometer ...
3D Digital Image Correlation Analysis of the Shrinkage Strain in Four Dual Cure Composite Cements
(BioMed Research International, 2019)
The introduction of resin-based cements and an adhesive-bonding system in daily dental practice has given the opportunity to increase the retention of previously conventional cemented restorations and the optimal results ...
Angular and spatial distributions of protons channeled in a bent and radially deformed single-wall boron-nitride nanotubes
(Romanian Reports in Physics, 2019)
This study is devoted to the angular and spatial distribution of protons channeling through a bent and radially deformed single-wall boron-nitride nanotubes (SWBNNTs). These nanotubes are more thermal and chemical stable ...
Effects of IGF-1 on the cardiovascular system
(Current Pharmaceutical Design, 2019)
Cardiovascular (CV) diseases are the most common health problems worldwide, with a permanent increase in incidence. Growing evidence underlines that insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) is a very important hormone responsible ...
Annealing effect on the photoluminescence properties of Ce3+ doped YPO4 nanophosphors
(Optical Materials, 2019)
This work explores the influence of annealing temperature on microstructural and optical characteristics of Ce 3+ - doped YPO 4 nanopowders prepared by sol gel method. Samples were annealed at various temperatures (T = ...
Measurement of anisotropic flow in XeXe collisions at 5.44 TeV with the CMS experiment
(Nuclear Physics A, 2019)
New measurements of anisotropic flow in XeXe collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 5.44 TeV per nucleon pair, collected by the CMS experiment at the LHC, are presented. The ν2, ν3 and ν4 Fourier coefficients of the ...
Maternal LINE-1 DNA Methylation and Congenital Heart Defects in Down Syndrome
(Frontiers in Genetics, 2019)
Background: Down syndrome (DS) is one of the most common chromosomal abnormalities associated with congenital heart defects (CHD), with approximately 40 to 60% of cases showing cardiac defects. This study assessed (i) the ...
Effect of gestational diabetes mellitus and pregnancy-induced hypertension on human umbilical vein smooth muscle KATP channels
(Experimental and Molecular Pathology, 2019)
Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and pregnancy-induced hypertension (PIH) can jeopardize mother and/or fetus. Vascular ATP-sensitive potassium (KATP) channels most likely participate in the processes of diabetes and ...
