Growth and feeding rates were measured in juvenile summer flounder Paralichthys dentatus and winter flounder Pseudopleuronectes americanus exposed to sub-lethal hypoxia (low dissolved oxygen, DO) over a range of temperatures, ...

VO2 thin films were grown on silicon substrates using Al2O3 thin films as the buffer layers. Compared with direct deposition on silicon, VO2 thin films deposited on Al2O3 buffer layers experience a significant improvement in ...

We describe the growth conditions of InxGa1 xBiyAs1 y (lattice-mismatched and matched) on InP substrates by molecular beam epitaxy and the resulting properties. Due to their anomalously narrow bandgaps and the presence ...

Background: Concussions are a common pathology in football and multiple misconceptions exist amongst the players and managers. To address these misconceptions, and potentially reduce concussion associated sequela, effective ...

Childhood cancer remains the leading cause of disease-related death among children 0 to 14 years and incidence varies by race, ethnicity, sex, geographic locale, and age at onset. However, data are unavailable in some ...

Translating policy into action is a complex task, with much debate surrounding the process whereby US and Canadian health funding agencies intend to integrate sex and gender science as an integral component of methodological ...

C-13-Metabolic flux analysis (C-13-MFA) traditionally assumes that kinetic isotope effects from isotopically labeled compounds do not appreciably alter cellular growth or metabolism, despite indications that some biochemical ...

The Developmentelopment of high capacity and long-life lithium-ion batteries is a long-term pursuing and under a close scrutiny. Most of the researches have been focused on exploring electrode materials and structures with ...

The following article presents the results obtained in experiences that use the Impulse Frequency Response Analysis (IFRA) method with a transformer in service. The IFRA method has been implemented in order to transform ...

In unidirectional carbon fiber-reinforced plastic laminates, the distance between fibers can varies from submicron to micron length scales. The mechanical properties of the matrix at this length scale are not well understood. ...
