Porous gelatin scaffolds were prepared using a salt-leaching method and these were compared
to scaffolds fabricated using a freeze-drying method. The salt-leached gelatin scaffolds …

Donepezil hydrochloride (DPH) is often used in the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. A new
treatment method was developed by encapsulating high DPH content in the tips of …

Background Harvesting technique and surgical strategy may affect patency rates of saphenous
vein (SV) grafts in coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG). We evaluated early …

The objective of this study is to provide experimental data that can be used in the optimal
design of flat plate finned-tube heat exchangers with large fin pitch. In this study, 22 heat …

A carbon nanotube (CNT)/cerium oxide composite was prepared by a one-pot hydrothermal
reaction in the presence of KOH and capping agent polyvinylpyrrolidone. The …

Hybrid scaffolds composed of β-chitin and collagen were prepared by combining salt-leaching
and freeze-drying methods. The chitin scaffold used as a framework was easily formed …

Recently, much effort has been focused on developing three-dimensional, paper-based
microfluidic analytical devices (3D-μPADs) targeting in vitro diagnostics. However, 3D-μPAD …

First, we propose a new modeling method for superposed ATM traffic by the MMPP(2),
which is a special case of the MAP(2). In this new method, we measure the mean and …

In a smart grid, various kinds of distributed generation (DG) sources could be connected
into the main power grid in order to enhance the reliability of the power system. The …

The objective of this study is to investigate the heat transfer characteristics of discrete plate
finned-tube heat exchangers with large fin pitches. Thirty-four heat exchangers were tested …
