Quartz crystal microbalances (QCMs) have been used in the literature for mass sensitive biosensor applications. However, their performance, reliability and stability have been limited by the chemical treatment steps required ...

Objectives: Oxidative stress is a known risk factor for the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis, the main cause of ischemic stroke. Glutathione S-transferase (GST) omega-1 and omega-2, members of phase II enzymes, play a role ...

In this study, a protein-based catalytic membrane was produced by electrospinning. Membrane activity was characterised in terms of response current for various glucose concentrations. We focused on the preparation of a ...

Mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) is a calcium silicate dental cement used for various applications in dentistry. This study was undertaken to test whether the presence of three commercial brands of calcium silicate dental ...

Objective: Pseudoexfoliation syndrome (PEX) is an age-related systemic disorder primarily with ocular manifestations. PEX is considered as the most common identifiable cause of glaucoma (pseudoexfoliation glaucoma, PEG) ...

Dysmorphic syndromes have different facial malformations. These malformations are significant to an early diagnosis of dysmorphic syndromes and contain distinctive information for face recognition. In this study we define ...

Hip osteoarthritis (OA) can be highly disabling and eventually may necessitate total replacement of the joint. Studies with computer-based analysis of the hip OA may give new insight both in imaging and clinical evaluation ...

In this study, a controlled drug release platform, amyloid-like bovine serum albumin (AL-BSA) with ampicillin sodium salt (amp), was developed. To develop this platform, 5%, 10%, and 20% (w/w) ratios of amp:BSA were used ...

The ongoing discoveries of RNA modalities (for example, non-coding, micro and enhancer) have resulted in an increased desire for detecting, sequencing and identifying RNA segments for applications in food safety, water and ...

Today, interest in the image processing system is increasing in many areas including engineering, medical informatics and bioinformatics. Technological advances in camera and software fields made them to be a current issue ...
