Melioidosis is an infectious disease caused by a Gram-negative bacterium, Burkholderia pseudomallei, found in soil and water. It is of public health importance in endemic areas, particularly in Tha...
Neural electrode
After a photoresist is no longer needed, it must be removed from the substrate. This usually requires a liquid "resist stripper", which chemically alters the resist so that it no longer adheres to ...
Silicon refining
The PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway is an important signalling pathway for many cellular functions such as growth control, metabolism and translation initiation. Within this pathway there are many valuable a...
Glaucoma is a term describing a group of ocular (eye) disorders that result in optic nerve damage, often associated with increased fluid pressure in the eye (intraocular pressure)(IOP).[1] The diso...

Synthetic antibodies are chemicals that can be tuned to recognize specific molecules. Such substances can act as durable sensors, among other applications.
Lymphoma is a group of blood cell tumors that develop from lymphocytes.[1] It is sometimes used to refer to just the cancerous ones rather than all tumors.[1] Symptoms may include: enlarged lymph n...
Analysis of biological samples
Holography is a technique which enables three-dimensional images (holograms) to be made. It involves the use of a laser, interference, diffraction, light intensity recording and suitable illuminati...
Nondeterministic polynomial optimization problem
A gamma camera, also called a scintillation camera or Anger camera, is a device used to image gamma radiation emitting radioisotopes, a technique known as scintigraphy. The applications of scintigr...

Leptin (from Greek λεπτός leptos, "thin"), the "satiety hormone", is a hormone made by adipose cells that helps to regulate energy balance by inhibiting hunger. Leptin is opposed by the actions of ...
Infrared retina
Electro-optic modulator (EOM) is an optical device in which a signal-controlled element exhibiting the electro-optic effect is used to modulate a beam of light. The modulation may be imposed on the...
