The development of novel chemically developed and physically defined surfaces and environments for cell culture and screening is important for various biological applications.The Droplet microarray (DMA) platform based on hydrophilic-superhydrophobic patterning enables high-throughput cellular screening in nanoliter volumes and on various biocompat

Relative density is an important index affecting the mechanical behaviors of calcareous sands.The dense sands present softening strength, whereas the loose sands exhibit hardening strength.Furthermore, the relative density is determined based on the maximum and minimum void ratios obtained by using the maximum and minimum dry density test.In this s

Instrumental insemination of Apis mellifera L.queens is a widely employed technique used in honeybee breeding that enables the effective control of mating.However, drone semen represents a potential source of honeybee viruses.In this study, 43 semen doses collected from apparently healthy drones, and consequently used in instrumental insemination,

The aim of this study was to evaluate the possibility of identifying areas for the Sewage Treatment Plants plant (WWTP) using maps algebra.Considering the high cost of the GIsS for a company, gvSIG version 2.2 was used.The study area was the city of Coronel Sapucaia / MS.Some of the criteria that are taken into corvette flags tattoo account by deci

Environmental exposure to metals is ubiquitous, but its relation to androgen hormone levels is not well understood, especially in children and adolescents.This study aimed to explore the relationship between blood metal concentrations (lead, cadmium, total mercury, selenium, and manganese) and serum total testosterone (TT) levels in 6-19-year-old c
