Mechanical properties of human middle ear tissues.
(2007)
Mechanical properties of four middle ear tissues were then employed in a published 3-dimensional finite element model of human ear with an accurate geometric configuration to investigate the transfer function of human ...
Extended Surfactants: Characterization and Microemulsion Properties
(2008)
Extended surfactants are surfactants with intermediate polarity groups, such as polypropylene oxide (PO) and polyethylene oxide (EO), inserted between the hydrophilic head and the hydrocarbon tail. With this unique molecular ...
Biosurfactants: Characterization, Microemulsion Formation and Potential Applications
(2009)
Biosurfactants, which are produced from microorganisms, have become of interest due to their non-toxic nature, their biodegradability and their production from renewable resources. Research has evaluated the use of ...
Extended Surfactants: Characterization and Microemulsion Properties
(2008)
Extended surfactants are surfactants with intermediate polarity groups, such as polypropylene oxide (PO) and polyethylene oxide (EO), inserted between the hydrophilic head and the hydrocarbon tail. With this unique molecular ...
Analysis of melt blowing dies using computational fluid dynamics .
(2007)
For a single annular jet and the blunt slot die, a previously developed rheological model was used to predict the fiber diameter, velocity, and temperature. Then, these were used to set boundary conditions in simulations ...
Spectrotemporal Dynamics of Neural Responses in Auditory Cortex During Frequency Discrimination
(2009)
Small differences in the frequencies of a sound provide a significant amount of information about the identity, position, and motion of the source. Humans' auditory frequency discrimination ability also allows us to ...
Conversion of alicyclic compounds for improvement of fuel properties.
(2006)
The presence of Pt improves the production of ring-contraction and ring-opening products from tetralin due to hydrogenation of tetralin to decalin. In addition, the location of metal (Pt) affects the ratio of RC/RO on the ...
Reaction pathways and catalyst phase transformations during synthesis of nanotubes and nanowires by the vapor-liquid-solid mechanism.
(2006)
The discovery of carbon nanotubes and semiconductor nanowires has initiated an exploding research field in which enormous efforts have been invested due to their fundamental significance to the study of size- and ...
Targeting fusion proteins containing L-methioninase to cancer cells.
(2007)
The methioninase-annexin V fusion protein bound specifically to phosphatidylserine (PS) immobilized on plastic plates, as well as on the surface of MCF-7 cancer cells in which PS was induced to be on the surface by the ...
A bone tissue engineering approach based on the combination of biomimetic scaffolds and flow perfusion culture.
(2007)
Bone tissue engineering has progressively emerged as a response to the current limited replacement therapies for damaged or lost bone tissue. Ideally, the implanted construct should aid in complete bone regeneration in a ...
