pushing them around with a series of impulses, and bouncing off to the other side at a similar speed but much-reduced pressure (compared to the incoming jet). This design is called animpulse turbineand it's particularly
" Fan said. The study compared metallic glasses that were heated to reach a liquid state at 2,000 kelvins and then cooled, either slowly or quickly, to near absolute zero kelvin, a temperature so cold that atoms barely move. In the quickly cooled glass, more of the five-...
He had a strong suspicion that the disappearance of bald eagles from Catalina was connected to the dumping operations, but he didn't have the data to confirm it. DDT contamination was also significantly higher in birds that fed on fish, compared with birds that ate mostly rodents and prey on...
Several natural nanomaterials have been shown to have strong antimicrobial properties. These include, for example, carbon nanotubes (CNTs), which can enhance membrane filtration [84,85]. CNTs are graphene sheets, either single-walled (SWNT—single tube) or multi-walled (MWNT—several packed tubes...
The use of 2-ANOVA is acceptable due to the fulfillment of the normality condition and very high partial eta2 values. We conducted a post-hoc power analysis and for the effects of aging in this analysis, due to the compared parameters and interactions, the obtained power (1 − β) ...
Introduction Compared to conventional protein/peptide-based vaccines intended to induce antigen-specific adaptive immune responses, DNA vaccines are more stable, cost-efficient, easy to manufacture and safe in handling [1]. DNA vaccines are being investigated for various applications including therapy of...
If naked i.e., unformulated plasmid DNA is used for vaccination, an important factor that contributes to low therapeutic efficiency is DNA degradation [47]. Studies showed that plasmids, compared to other administration forms like minicircles, are degraded relatively fast within one week [48]. ...
