Fiber Bragg gratings (FBGs) are widely applied in optical sensing systems due to their advantages including being simple to use, high sensitivity, and having great potential for integration into optical communication systems.A common method used for FBG sensing systems is wavelength interrogation.The performance of interrogation based sensing syste
Oil pumpkin (Cucurbita pepo L.) belongs to alternative crops grown for seeds and high quality seed oil.One of the basic prerequisites of successful production of oil pumpkin is the proper choice of cultivar.The genetics of different traits of oil pumpkin represents the basis for breeding of new cultivars of oil pumpkin.Of special interest for oil p
BackgroundTreg cells have been shown to be an important part of immune-homeostasis read more and IL-2 which is produced upon T cell receptor (TCR)-dependent activation of T lymphocytes has been demonstrated to critically participate in Treg development.ObjectiveTo evaluate small molecule inhibitors (SMI) for the identification of novel IL-2/Treg en
This study aims to experimentally analyze the radiation shielding capabilities of micro and nano bismuth oxide waste glasses by evaluating the effect of particle size, bismuth oxide content, and energy on the attenuation abilities of the samples.Waste glasses were powdered and combined with varying amounts of bismuth oxide with different particle s
Abstract Purpose Small molecules targeting fibroblast activation protein (FAP) have emerged as a new group of tracers for positron emission tomography (PET) in 2018.While most of the existing literature has been focussed on the application of FAP-specific PET in various kinds of cancers, some researchers have, both intentionally or unintentionally,
