Once a bone substitute, previously seeded with human bone progenitor cells, is implanted in a femoral condyle of a rat, it’s of importance to determine the intensity of a cell-triggered immune response of the host. Different techniques can be used, such as ...
Soil incorporation of charcoal (biochar) has been suggested as practice to sequester carbon, improve soil properties and crop yields but most studies have been done in the short term. Old anthropogenic charcoal-rich soils in the Alps enable to explore the ...
Questions: What is the impact of nitrogen (N) inputs on the vegetation of mountain permanent grasslands? Beyond the effect of fertilizer quantity (total and available N supply), is there a specific effect of fertilizer quality (the various N sources) on th ...
In a space of 2–3 hours, the desired pattern could be created with computer-assisted design, printed and have cells seeded onto the scaffold, which could reduce the cycle time of prototyping micropattern designs. Human dermal fibroblasts and RN22 Schwann c ...

The significant role of magnetic perturbations in mitigation and losses of runaway electrons (REs) was documented in dedicated experimental studies of RE at the COMPASS tokamak. REs in COMPASS are produced both in low density quiescent discharges and in di ...
Target identification for tractography studies requires solid anatomical knowledge validated by an extensive literature review across species for each seed structure to be studied. Manual literature review to identify targets for a given seed region is ted ...
I will discuss how the Higgs field of the Standard Model may have played an important role in cosmology, leading to the homogeneity, isotropy and flatness of the Universe; producing the quantum fluctuations that seed structure formation; triggering the rad ...
Cell Seeding is a key factor for good regeneration in tissue engineering. In order to ensure uniform tissue regeneration, a system has to be found to distribute cells evenly within the scaffold that will carry them in the body. In this extent, this work tr ...
Formation of self-organized nanogratings in bulk glasses with femtosecond laser pulses is one of the most intriguing phenomena in the interactions of light with transparent materials. With the feature sizes far beyond the optical diffraction limit, these n ...

Background: Hypospadias and urethral strictures are conditions requiring additional tissue for reconstruction. Due to a limited source of tissue, autologous skin and oral mucosa are frequently used. However, long-term follow-up studies demonstrated signifi ...
