Cryopreservation depends on the equilibration of cells with high concentration of cryoprotective agents (CPAs). However, the addition of CPAs can induce damages to the cells. One of the damages is due to too much shrinkage or swell of the cell volume which lead to the cell death during the addition...

Cryopreservation
Preservation of
Elliptical borehole enlargements or "breakouts" caused by systematic spalling of a
borehole wall due to regional maximum horizontal stresses were identified in 18 wells
drilled in the Coast Range and Willamette Valley of western Oregon. The breakouts
generally indicate a NNW to NNE orientation of maximum horizontal compression
(oH[subscript max])...

Abstract
Flame-retardants (FRs) generally enter the environment by dissociating from the products they were originally manufactured into. The predominant class of FR used in consumer products before their eventual phase-out in the mid-2000s were the polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs). Previous studies have illustrated a correlation between socio-economic status, notably gross...

Nerve damage during surgery is a common morbidity experienced by patients that leaves them with chronic pain and/or loss of function. Currently, no clinically approved imaging technique exists to enhance nerve visualization in the operating room. Fluorescence image-guided surgery has gained in popularity and clinical acceptance over the past decade...

We have developed a method for the determination of the orientational distribution function of partially ordered systems from the EPR line shape that is an alternative to the usual one of expansion in the elements of the Wigner rotation matrices. The method can be applied to distribution functions whose expansion...

Social information is used widely in breeding habitat selection and provides an efficient means for individuals to select habitat, but the population-level consequences of this process are not well explored. At low population densities, efficiencies may be reduced because there are insufficient information providers to cue high-quality habitat. This constitutes...
