The relationship between the intracellular Ca2+ transient and the isometric twitch force in frog muscle fibres
(1996-09)
The calcium-sensitive fluorescent indicator fluo-3 was used to monitor the intracellular free calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i) during isometric twitches in twenty-nine single muscle fibres from the anterior tibialis muscle ...
A study of the combustion synthesis of MoSi and MoSi-matrix composites
(1996-08)
The combustion synthesis of MoSi from elemental powders was investigated. Higher completion of the reaction was achieved by the use of prior compaction of powders and higher heating rates. The reaction mechanism was studied ...
Identification of the root-knot nematode, Meloidogyne incognita, using monoclonal antibodies raised to non-specific esterases
(1996-08)
The esterase isozyme from Meloidogyne incognita with pI similar to 4.95 was purified using a Rotofor electrophoresis system. The purified enzyme was then used to raise monoclonal antibodies. Hybridoma cell lines producing ...
An approximate expression of KImax for sphere/nozzle corner cracks
(1996-08-01)
Based on the flat-nozzle model loaded by uniform biaxial tension, using the O-integral of the weight function method and introducing suitable free-surface correcting factors M, M, and a curvature correcting factor M, an ...
An in-vitro study of the effect of hydrocolloid patch occlusion on the penetration of triamcinolone acetonide through skin in man
(1996-08)
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of occlusion using hydrocolloid-containing patches on in-vitro triamcinolone acetonide (TACA) penetration of the epidermis while monitoring the uptake of water by the patches ...
Ge-70(alpha,gamma)Se-74 cross section measurements at energies of astrophysical interest
(1996-07)
The cross section of the reaction Ge-70(alpha, gamma)Se-74 has been measured over the bombarding energy range of 5.05 MeV <E(alpha) <7.80 MeV using single and coincidence gamma spectroscopy techniques. The experimental ...
Tourist Accidents: An Exploratory Analysis
(1996-07-01)
Health issues associated with international tourism are now attracting interest from diverse researchers as they examine the interconnections between health and tourism. Despite this new popularity, no mainstream tourism ...
The Evolution of the Centimeter-Submillimeter Spectrum of 3C 345 during Outburst
(1996-07-01)
Monitoring data between 375 and 4.8 GHz are presented for the blazar 3C 345 between 1989 and 1995, during which period the source flared. The multifrequency light curves are used to construct snap-shot spectra that span ...
