The effect of ..gamma.. irradiation on cartilage matrix calcification was studied in vitro. Metatarsal bones of 14- to 17-day-old embryonic mice were dissected and cultured under various conditions. Prior to culture, half of the metatarsal bones received absorbed doses of 1.0 to 30.0 Gy ..gamma.. radiation. Their paired counterparts ...
This project investigated a novel variation on the concept of a tuned vibration absorber or damper: the State-Switched Absorber (SSA). The SSA is capable of altering its stiffness state nearly instantaneously. The change in stiffness causes a change in th...

This paper describes the properties and use of a fiber optic probe as an attachment to a spectrophotometer and its use for measurements in solutions and turbid suspensions. Measurements of a standard were identical when a spectrophotometer equipped with the probe was used or when a spectrophotometer was used in a conventional manner. The probe was calibrated for turbidimetric measurements with ...

A simple equivalent circuit method has been proposed to provide understanding of the absorption mechanism of a class of metamaterial absorbers. The absorbers are composed of lossy frequency selective surfaces (FSSs) over the grounded dielectric substrates. Based on the analytical method, the influence of FSS surface resistance on the frequency responses of ...

Education as a liberating and democratic process remains an aim and belief in discourses within the field and beyond. The arts also have a tradition in which "artistic freedom" is valued even if what constitutes artistic freedom is contested. In this article an educational discourse in which dialogue is considered a means to personal and collective liberation through education is highlighted and ...

Cultures of Escherichia coli H52 were treated with liquid dichlorodifluoromethane (fluorocarbon-12 [f-12]) for 2 h at 22 C and then examined microscopically. Treated cells tended to clump, and their cytoplasms were generally less dense and less uniform in appearance than those of control cells. E. coli ML30 was exposed to f-12 at a concentration of 1.25 � saturation for ...

The direct co-culturing effect of rat bone-marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (rBM-MSCs) on the pancreatic-islets (PIs) was studied to obtain functional islet cells. MSCs were isolated from rat bone marrow and cultivated under standard conditions. Following their characterization, the rBM-MSCs were directly (with cell-islet contact) co-cultured with ...
In this study tissue culture methods were used to investigate the effects of ionizing irradiation on bone and cartilage of calvaria and radii of 18-day-old embryonic rats (resp. mice). The radii were studied histologically after 2 days of culture following the irradiation. A number of changes were observed. Decrease in growth of the ...

The effect of aphidicolin, a specific inhibitor of the replicative DNA polymerases, on the excystation and metacystic development of Entamoeba invadens was examined. The protein profile of metacystic amoebae and their immunogenicity in the presence and absence of aphidicolin were also examined by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and immunoblotting. Excystation, which was ...
