Concentrations of polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins (PCDDs), polychlorinated dibenzofurans (PCDFs) and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in human milk from Ireland: temporal trends and implications for nursing infant exposure
(OAE Publishing Inc, 2021-11-19)
Aim: The elucidation of temporal trends in human exposure to polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and 17
polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and furans (PCDD/Fs) since the previous Irish human milk surveys and to
evaluate the ...
Hierarchical study of the reactions of hydrogen atoms with alkenes: A theoretical study of the reactions of hydrogen atoms with C2–C4 alkenes
(American Chemical Society, 2021-06-08)
The present study complements our previous studies of the reactions of hydrogen atoms with C5 alkene species including 1- and 2-pentene and the branched isomers (2-methyl-1-butene, 2-methyl-2-butene, and 3-methyl-1-butene), ...
Nash Equilibria in certain two-choice multi-player games played on the ladder graph
(World Scientific Publishing, 2021-01-16)
In this paper, we compute analytically the number of Nash Equilibria (NE) for a two-choice game played on a (circular) ladder graph with 2n players. We consider a set of games with generic payoff parameters, with the only ...
Examination of oestrus-dependent alterations of bovine cervico-vaginal mucus glycosylation for potential as optimum fertilisation indicators
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2021-03-09)
Oestrus is the period in the sexual cycle of female mammals during which ovulation occurs, where they become most receptive to mating and are most fertile. Efficient detection of oestrus is a key component in successful ...
Simple characterization scheme for optical coherence tomography systems with application to a commercial and a near-isometric resolution fibre-based system
(2021-12-14)
Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) is a rapidly
growing imaging modality in biomedical optics. OCT can perform
high-resolution, cross-sectional imaging of the microstructure of
biological tissues by measuring the coherent ...
Probing sulfatide-tissue lectin recognition with functionalized glycodendrimersomes
(Cell Press, 2021-01-22)
The small 3-O-sulfated galactose head group of sulfatides, an abundant glycosphingolipid class, poses the (sphinx-like) riddle on involvement of glycan bridging by tissue lectins (sugar code). First, synthesis of head group ...
A comprehensive experimental and modeling study of the ignition delay time characteristics of ternary and quaternary blends of methane, ethane, ethylene, and propane over a wide range of temperature, pressure, equivalence ratio, and dilution
(Elsevier, 2021-08-09)
The ignition delay time (IDT) characteristics of new ternary and quaternary blended C 1 ¿C 3 gaseous hy- drocarbons, including methane/ethane/ethylene and methane/ethane/ethylene/propane, are studied over a wide range of ...
Characterization of nanosensitive multifractality in submicron scale tissue morphology and its alteration in tumor progression
(Society of Photo-optical Instrumentation Engineers, 2021-01-11)
Significance: Assessment of disease using optical coherence tomography is an actively investigated problem, owing to many unresolved challenges in early disease detection, diagnosis, and treatment response monitoring. The ...
Accessing depth-resolved high spatial frequency content from the optical coherence tomography signal
(Nature Research, 2021-08-24)
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a rapidly evolving technology with a broad range of applications, including biomedical imaging and diagnosis. Conventional intensity-based OCT provides depth-resolved imaging with a ...
Perspectives on allele-specific expression
(Annual Reviews, 2021-04-28)
Diploidy has profound implications for population genetics and susceptibility to genetic diseases. Although two copies are present for most genes in the human genome, they are not necessarily both active or active at the ...
