Background: The introduction of texture to the outer shell breast implants was aimed at increasing tissue incorporation and reducing capsular contracture. It has also been shown that textured surfaces promote a higher growth bacteria are linked development implant–associated anaplastic large cell lymphoma. Methods: authors measure surface area roughness 11 available implants. In addition, subject these implant shells an in vitro bacterial attachment assay with four pathogens ( Staphylococcus...
Ponatinib, a cancer drug, inhibits occurrence and growth of cerebral cavernous malformation in mouse models.
Luminescence properties of vertically aligned, crystalline ZnO nanorods are studied by cathodoluminescence (CL) spectroscopy and microscopy. Results show that luminescence characteristics vary dramatically with location on the nanorod as well CL excitation depth. inhomogeneity is observed between tip sidewalls, accompanied a variation in chemical environment surface oxygen ions probed photoemission spectroscopy. Our findings demonstrate can provide useful information local optical...
The surface electronic structure of ZnO nanoparticles has been studied with photoemission and x-ray absorption spectroscopies. Contrary to expectation, ZnO:Zn phosphor were found contain a lower oxygen vacancy density on the than undoped counterparts, but vacancies are in different chemical environments. Cathodoluminescence shows intense green luminescence from surface, while exhibit only near-band-edge emission. results indicate roles their environment previously unexplained material.
An order-N ab initio molecular-dynamics method, based on orbital-free density functional theory, is applied to the study of interstitial in aluminum. The results confirm 〈100〉 dumbbell (in which two atoms occupy a single lattice site, forming an atom pair direction) as lowest-energy structure, with formation energy \ensuremath{\sim}0.2 eV lower than classical octahedral interstitial. Formation associated reorganization atomic and electronic extends over several unit cells. shown have...
Vertically aligned ZnO nanowires were synthesized on a sapphire () substrate by vapour deposition and their light-emitting properties characterized using photoluminescence cathodoluminescence spectroscopies. Besides the nanowires, there exists mosaic film surface. Comparison of luminescent as-grown ensemble extracted from it shows that is major source defect-related green emission while possess highly crystalline quality with virtually no defects. Photoemission spectroscopy valence band...
Data that pertain to experimental X-ray and inelastic neutron scattering studies of liquid sodium are obtained from an ab initio molecular dynamics simulation. A long run was used, so the statistical precision calculated quantities is as good experimentally. The made possible by use a recently developed modification Car-Parrinello method which uses orbital-free density functional prescribe electron energetics. Agreement with experiment excellent.
The Cretaceous Sanagasta neosauropod nesting site (La Rioja, Argentina) was the first confirmed instance of extinct dinosaurs using geothermal-generated heat to incubate their eggs. strategy and hydrothermal activities at this led conclusion that surprisingly 7 mm thick-shelled eggs were adapted harsh microenvironments. We used micro-CT scans in study obtain three-dimensional microcharacterization these eggshells. Micro-CT-based analyses provide a robust assessment gas conductance fossil...
Mutations in CCM1 (aka KRIT1), CCM2, or CCM3 PDCD10) gene cause cerebral cavernous malformation humans. Mouse models of CCM disease have been established by deleting Ccm genes postnatal animals. These mouse provide invaluable tools to investigate molecular mechanism and therapeutic approaches for disease. However, the full value these animal is limited lack an accurate quantitative method assess lesion burden progression. In present study we a refined detailed contrast enhanced X-ray...
Mny commercial software packages for X-ray diffraction pattern analysis are capable of identifying multiple phases in bulk materials. However, patterns cannot record those with very small volume ratio or non-homogeneous distribution, which may mean that researchers have to use instead electron from a region interest. EDP2XRD , new program converting into patterns, is described here. The has been developed order utilize taken mixed-phase nanocrystalline materials transmission microscope. It...
