Methods, Goals and Metaphysics in Contemporary Set Theory
(2016-07-08)This thesis confronts Penelope Maddy's Second Philosophical study of set theory with a philosophical analysis of a part of contemporary set-theoretic practice in order to argue for three features we should demand of our ... -
Methoxetamine-related deaths in the UK : an overview
(2015-07-28)Objective: The goal of this study is to provide an update on the data given on methoxetamine (MXE)-related fatalities that occurred in 2011–2013, presented at the Second International Conference on Novel Psychoactive ... -
Methoxetamine: An Analogue of Ketamine
(2013-12)Introduction: Methoxetamine acts similarly to a non-competitive antagonist at the N-methyl-aspartate receptor and a Dopamine reuptake inhibitor. Its behavioural effects resemble those induced by dissociative anesthetics, ... -
Methyl-group effect on the proton affinity of methylated acetophenons studied by two mass-spectrometric techniques
(1993-10)The proton affinities (PA) of all isomeric dimethylacetophenones were determined using the 'kinetic method' with a tandem mass spectrometer and by measurements of the proton transfer equilibrium in the gas phase by Fourier ... -
Methylglyoxal, A Metabolite Increased in Diabetes is Associated with Insulin Resistance, Vascular Dysfunction and Neuropathies
(2016-05)Background: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a pandemic metabolic disease characterized by a chronically elevated blood glucose concentration (hyperglycemia) due to insulin dysfunction. Approximately 50% of diabetics show diabetes ... -
Metrics to Evaluate Human Teaching Engagement From a Robot's Point of View
(2018-01-29)This thesis was motivated by a study of how robots can be taught by humans, with an emphasis on allowing persons without programming skills to teach robots. The focus of this thesis was to investigate what criteria could ... -
Mexican science on the couch : Interview by Joerg Heber and Jesús Rogel-Salazar
(2010-10-01)Despite the good education of its scientists, science and technology in Mexico faces multiple challenges, says Juan Ramón de la Fuente, a former Minister of Health and former Rector of the National Autonomous University of Mexico -
Mexico must do more
(2010-10-01)Mexico is a country rich with natural resources and an educated workforce. Yet its scientific output remains below its potential. In this focus issue we try to highlight some of Mexico's structural problems. -
mHealth, Trust and the Security of Personal Data
(Springer Nature, 2017-12-02)The decentralisation of healthcare now extends, through the use of mobile technologies, beyond the home to people (patients) themselves. This heralds a revolution in the way people think about and use health and wellbeing ... -

Micro throttle pump employing displacement amplification in an elastomeric substrate
(2005-10)We report a micro throttle pump (MTP) with enhanced throttling resulting from beneficial deformation of its elastomer substrate. In the MTP reported, this has doubled the effective deflection of the piezo electric (PZT) ... -
Microbiological Quality Estimation of Meat Using Deep CNNs on Embedded Hardware Systems
(2023-04-24)Spectroscopic sensor imaging of food samples meta-processed by deep machine learning models can be used to assess the quality of the sample. This article presents an architecture for estimating microbial populations in ... -
Microbiota in Wheat Roots Evaluated by Cloning of ITS1/2 rDNA and Sequencing
(2010-04)Fungi (17 species), oomycetous organisms (four species of Pythium) and a plasmodiophorid (Polymyxa graminis) were recorded in wheat roots analysed by cloning of the total ITS1/2 rDNA and sequencing of representative clones. ... -

Microcurrent Therapy in the Management of Chronic Tennis Elbow
(2011-03-10)Microcurrent therapy (MCT) involves the application of sub-sensory electric current and can promote tissue repair, possibly by mimicking endogenous electrical cues for healing. It has been used successfully to treat ... -
Microcurrent Therapy in the Management of Chronic Tennis Elbow : Pilot Studies to Optimize Parameters
(2012)In microcurrent therapy (MCT), low-intensity electric current is applied to promote tissue healing and relieve symptoms. MCT is used with recalcitrant skin and bone lesions, but little is known about its effects on ... -
Microencapsulation of a synbiotic into PLGA/alginate multiparticulate gels
(2014-05-15)Probiotic bacteria have gained popularity as a defence against disorders of the bowel. However, the acid sensitivity of these cells results in a loss of viability during gastric passage and, consequently, a loss of efficacy. ... -
Microencapsulation of probiotic bacteria into alginate hydrogels
