System dynamics revealed by recurrence quantification analysis: Application to molecular dynamics simulations
(2007)
The present work examines the applicability and efficacy of recurrence plots and recurrence quantification analysis in interpreting statistical-mechanics-based simulations of classical fluids and solids. We analyze temperature ...
Raphidiopsis mediterranea Skuja represents non-heterocytous life-cycle stages of Cylindrospermopsis raciborskii (Woloszynska) Seenayya et Subba Raju in Lake Kastoria (Greece), its type locality: Evidence by morphological and phylogenetic analysis
(2009)
The taxonomical relationship of Cylindrospermopsis raciborskii and Raphidiopsis mediterranea was studied by morphological and 16S rRNA gene diversity analyses of natural populations from Lake Kastoria, Greece. Samples were ...
Corn tolerance to atrazine and cadmium and sunflower to cadmium in soil and hydroponic culture
(2008)
Hydroponic culture is often used for screening plant tolerance or remediation efficacy to environmental pollutants. Field experiments are usually avoided because of soil and groundwater contamination; thus pot experiments ...
Proteomics challenging medicine
(2005)
The study of the genome dictated that the whole is more than the sum of its parts; genes do not function independently but in networks. The impact of this understanding was explosive. It acknowledged the concept that this ...
The role of hemodynamic measurements in the management of venous and ischemic ulcers
(2007)
There is a need for quantitative investigations in the vascular laboratory to manage lower extremity ulcers. The majority of leg ulcers are of venous (45%-60%) or arterial origin (10%-20%). Despite the increasing complexity ...
Inhibition of ozone-induced SP-A oxidation by plant polyphenols
(2007)
Surfactant protein-A (SP-A) is the best studied and most abundant of the protein components of lung surfactant and plays an important role in host defense of the lung. It has been shown that ozone-induced oxidation of SP-A ...
Cytogenetic effects of grape extracts (Vitis vinifera) and polyphenols on mitomycin C-induced sister chromatid exchanges (SCEs) in human blood lymphocytes
(2007)
In the present study, the effects of extracts and polyphenol-rich fractions as well as monomer polyphenols identified in them, from both red and white grapes, on mitomycin C (MMC) induced sister chromatid exchanges (SCEs) ...
Assessment of antioxidant/anticarcinogenic activity of plant extracts by a combination of molecular methods
(2005)
Cancer chemoprevention is considered to be a promising approach for cancer control, as it has been identified by both epidemiological and molecular studies that environmental factors are the major causes of cancer. ...
