The past five years have led to a tremendous increase in our molecular understanding of the mode of action of the anthrax toxin, one of the two main virulence factors produced by Bacillus anthracis. The structures of each of the three components of the tox ...
To investigate the suitability of 144Ce for both interstitial and intravascular brachytherapy applications. Monte Carlo calculations of radial dose rate distributions in water were performed for 144Ce in a spring-shaped source and compared with two commonl ...
Inkjet printing is a very common and largely developed technology in desktop printers. A wide range of diverse technologies, with different principles of drop generation, fall into the inkjet printing category. Inkjet technology, particularly the drop-on-d ...
It is important to establish reliable calculational tools to plan and analyse representative microdosimetry experiments in the context of microbeam radiation therapy development. In this paper, an attempt has been made to investigate the suitability of the ...

Life cycle assessment (LCA) is a framework for comparing products according to their total estimated environmental impact, summed over all chemical emissions and activities associated with a product at all stages in its life cycle (from raw material acquis ...
Comprehensive counterion activity studies have revealed clear influence of the polyelectrolyte concn. and chain length on the polyion-counterion interaction, neither of which is evident from the existing theor. models. The counterion activity coeff. (fa) i ...
Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) is a tool developed to evaluate the environmental impact of a product or a system. After a decade of research in the LCA field, significant progress has been achieved but methodologies for the assessment of toxicological impacts ...
Fusion proteins of the human 55-kDa TNF receptor extracellular domain with hinge and C2/C3 constant domains of human IgG1 or IgG3 heavy chains were tested in a primate sepsis model. Twenty-four baboons received 4.6, or 0.2 mg/kg of TNFR5-G1,3, or placebo, ...
In Part 1 of this article we developed an approach for the calculation of cancer effect measures for life cycle assessment (LCA). In this article, we propose and evaluate the method for the screening of noncancer toxicological health effects. This approach ...
A saturation of the yield strength appears in the post irradiation hardening of copper irradiated with high energy heavy ions, in the range from 10(-3)-10(-2) dpa. The saturation value of the yield strength is significantly lower than that measured after i ...
