Efficacy of Phentolamine Mesylate in Reducing the Duration of Various Local Anesthetics
(Manager, 2021-02)
Background: To evaluate changes in the effectiveness of phentolamine mesylate in combination with different local anesthetics (LAs) and vasoconstrictors. A prospective randomized double-blind study was conducted with 90 ...
Modular micropumps fabricated by 3D printed technologies for polymeric microfluidic device applications
(Elsevier, 2021-04-24)
In order to facilitate the implementation of microfluidic technology for rapid point-of-care analysis, there is a demand for self-powered microfluidics. The modular architecture of degas driven plug-and-play polymeric ...
Antibiotic Resistance in Agricultural Soil and Crops Associated to the Application of Cow Manure-Derived Amendments from Conventional and Organic Livestock Farms
(Frontiers Media, 2021-02-23)
he application of organic amendments to agricultural soil can enhance crop yield, while improving the physicochemical and biological properties of the recipient soils. However, the use of manure-derived amendments as ...
Realization of nearly dispersionless bands with strong orbital anisotropy from destructive interference in twisted bilayer MoS2
(Nature Research, 2021-09)
[EN]Recently, the twist angle between adjacent sheets of stacked van der Waals materials emerged as a new knob to engineer correlated states of matter in two-dimensional heterostructures in a controlled manner, giving rise ...
Phenotypic and environmental correlates of natal dispersal in a long-lived territorial vulture
(Springer Nature, 2021-03-08)
Natal dispersal, the movement between the birth and the first breeding site, has been rarely studied in long-lived territorial birds with a long-lasting pre-breeding stage. Here we benefited from the long-term monitoring ...
Effect of Nanoconfinement on the isodimorphic crystallization of Poly(butylene succinate-ran-caprolactone) Random Copolymers
(ACS, 2020-07-21)
In this paper, we study for the first time the effect of hard confinement on the isodimorphic crystallization of random copolyesters. A series of poly(butylene succinate-ran-caprolactone) samples encompassing the entire ...
Direct Relationship between Dispersion and Crystallization Behavior in Poly(ethylene oxide)/Poly(ethylene glycol)-g-Silica Nanocomposites
(American Chemical Society, 2021-02-08)
The inclusion of polymer-grafted nanoparticles (PGNPs) can impart various
functional properties to polymer nanocomposites (PNCs). For semicrystalline
polymers, we can control the spatial dispersion of PGNPs and presumably ...
Alzheimer's Risk Gene TREM2 Determines Functional Properties of New Type of Human iPSC-Derived Microglia
(Frontiers Media, 2021-02-03)
Microglia are key in the homeostatic well-being of the brain and microglial dysfunction has been implicated in neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's disease (AD). Due to the many limitations to study microglia ...
Looking Backward to Move Forward: a Meta-Analysis of Stem Cell Therapy in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis
(Springer, 2021-04-01)
Transplantation of several types of stem cells (SC) for the treatment of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) has been evaluated in numerous Phase I/II clinical trials with inconclusive results. Here, we conducted a ...
Simulating Vibronic Spectra without Born-Oppenheimer Surfaces
(ACS Publications, 2021-04-01)
We show how linear vibronic spectra in molecular systems can be simulated efficiently using first-principles approaches without relying on the explicit use of multiple Born-Oppenheimer potential energy surfaces. We demonstrate ...
