Adjustable Hyperthermia Response of Self-Assembled Ferromagnetic Fe-MgO Core-Shell Nanoparticles by Tuning Dipole-Dipole Interactions
(2012)The Fe-MgO core-shell morphology is proposed within the single-domain nanoparticle regime as an enhanced magnetically driven hyperthermia carrier. The combinatory use of metallic iron as a core material together with the ... -
Air flow and associated sensible heat exchanges in a naturally ventilated greenhouse
(1997)In order to investigate the three-dimensional nature of the air flow within the greenhouse, a three-dimensional sonic anemometer was used for the direct measurement of air and heat exchange inside the greenhouse and through ... -
Analyzing High-Risk Emergency Areas with GIS and Neural Networks: The Case of Athens, Greece
(2014)Any analysis of health service problems facing the world today must consider that these problems exist in a geographic context. This fact has led to an increased need for accurate and current information to support emergency ... -
Breast-feeding in Athens, Greece: Factors associated with its initiation and duration
(2006)Objectives: To determine the prevalence, examine the influence of hospital practices and investigate potential determinants of breast-feeding in Athens. Patients and Methods: Three hundred twelve mothers provided information ... -
Combined administration of gonadotropin-releasing hormone, progesterone, and meloxicam is an effective treatment for the repeat-breeder cow
(2009)In practice, the etiologic treatment of the repeat-breeder cow is nearly infeasible. In this study, we tested the hypothesis that a combined treatment would benefit the conception rate of repeat-breeder cows. The components ... -
Development of a Simplified Model for Nitrogen Fertilizer Recommendation for Maize, Wheat, and Sunflower in Northern Greece
(2013)In many cases, fertilizer crop recommendations in northern Greece are made based on personal opinions rather than scientific background. This may lead to overfertilization and waste of resources. For sound fertilizer ... -
Exceptional Longevity in the Tephritid, Ceratitis rosa, a Close Relative of the Mediterranean Fruit Fly
(2012)This study shows that the fruit fly, Ceratitis rosa (Karsch), has a significantly longer life span than the medfly, C. capitata (Wiedemann); the species used as a model organism for the demographics of insect aging. This ... -
Follicle ablation improves the ovarian response and the number of collected embryos in superovulated cows during the early stages of lactation
(2006)A field study was designed to compare ovarian response and embryo yield in cows during early lactation when gonadotropin administration followed one of four treatments. In group 1A (n = 19) and 1B (n = 9), the estrouses ... -
Influence of an insect screen on greenhouse ventilation
(2002)The influence of an insect screen on ventilation rate was experimentally investigated in a multispan glass-covered greenhouse equipped with a continuous roof vent, located at the University of Thessaly near volos in the ... -
Natural ventilation performance of six greenhouse and tunnel types
(1997)The physical basis of natural ventilation is reviewed and the ventilation performance examined of six different greenhouse and tunnel types equipped with either roof or side, or both roof and side vents. Altogether, sixteen ... -
A new set of 16S rRNA universal primers for identification of animal species
(2014)In this study, bioinformatics were used to specifically design universal primers within 16S rRNA gene according to the following criteria: the priming sites needed to be sufficiently conserved to permit a reliable amplification ... -
The Ossification of the Pectoral Girdle and Wing Skeleton of the Quail (Coturnix coturnix japonica)
(2011)P>The onset of ossification centres of the pectoral girdle and wing skeleton of the quail (Coturnix coturnix japonica) has been studied in embryos and juvenile birds, which were sampled daily from the 4th day of incubation ... -
Ovarian atresia in the Mediterranean sardine, Sardina pilchardus sardina
(2003)Histological analysis was used to describe and analyse the process of ovarian atresia in sardine (Sardina pilchardus sardina) from the central Aegean Sea (eastern Mediterranean). The spawning potential of females in relation ... -
Pipe Networks Risk Assessment Based on Survival Analysis
(2011)Integrated management of pipe networks should include methods for monitoring, repairing and replacing deteriorating components (usually pipes), but also methods and everyday operating practices towards a proactive risk ... -
Pregnancies and their obstetric outcome in two selected age groups of teenage women in Greece
(2012)Aim: The aim of this study was to evaluate the outcome of pregnancies in adolescents in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology of Democritus University of Thrace, North-Eastern Greece. Material and methods: We ... -
Pressure field and airflow at the opening of a naturally ventilated greenhouse
(1998)Direct estimation of airflow at the vent opening by means of differential pressure measurements were performed in a twin-span greenhouse equipped with a continuous vent at the gutter. Application of Bernoulli's equation ... -
Self-similar growth of a gas bubble induced by localized heating: the effect of temperature-dependent transport properties
(2005)A gas bubble growing in a saturated liquid under the action of an internal heat source is studied theoretically as a model problem for the growth of a bubble around a miniature spherical heater submerged in the liquid. In ... -
Underdiagnosis of Clostridium difficile across Europe: the European, multicentre, prospective, biannual, point-prevalence study of Clostridium difficile infection in hospitalised patients with diarrhoea (EUCLID)
(2014)Background Variations in testing for Clostridium difficile infection can hinder patients' care, increase the risk of transmission, and skew epidemiological data. We aimed to measure the underdiagnosis of C difficile infection ... -
