Herpes simplex virus 1 and 2 (HSV-1 and HSV-2), also known as human herpesvirus 1 and 2 (HHV-1 and HHV-2), are two members of the herpesvirus family, Herpesviridae, that infect humans.[1] Both HSV-...
Polymers for tissue engineering
The extracellular forms of phospholipases A2 have been isolated from different venoms (snake, bee, and wasp), from virtually every studied mammalian tissue (including pancreas and kidney) as well a...
Imaging of atherosclerotic plaque
Neurodegeneration is the umbrella term for the progressive loss of structure or function of neurons, including death of neurons. Many neurodegenerative diseases including ALS, Parkinson’s, Alzheime...
Radiotracers for cancer cell detection
A chromophore is the part of a molecule responsible for its color.[1] The color arises when a molecule absorbs certain wavelengths of visible light and transmits or reflects others. The chromophore...
Tissue response to stress
A biofuel is a fuel that contains energy from geologically recent carbon fixation, such as plants. These fuels are produced from living organisms. Examples of this carbon fixation occur in plants a...
Limb Prostheses include both upper and lower extremity prostheses. Upper extremity prostheses are used at varying levels of amputation: forequarter, shoulder disarticulation, transhumeral prosth...
A dye-sensitized solar cell (DSSC, DSC or DYSC[1]) is a low-cost solar cell belonging to the group of thin film solar cells.[2] It is based on a semiconductor formed between a photo-sensitized anod...

Discretization/manipulation of sample volumes
Guided cell patterning
Scintillation is a flash of light produced in a transparent material by the passage of a particle (an electron, an alpha particle, an ion, or a high-energy photon).
Peripheral neuropathy (PN) is damage or disease affecting nerves, which may impair sensation, movement, gland, or organ function, or other aspects of health, depending on the type of nerve affected...
Core-shell particles
The sigma-2 receptor (σ2R) is a sigma receptor subtype which preferentially binds to siramesine[1] and PB28.[2] PGRMC1 was recently suggested to be the putative sigma-2 receptor.[3] Unlike sigma-1 ...
