Nanocrystalline Hydroxyapatite/Si Coating by Mechanical Alloying Technique by Ahmed E. Hannora, Alexander S. Mukasyan, Zulkhair A. Mansurov

“…However, it was shown that one-hour heat treatment at 800°C of such mechanically coated HA layer leads to partial transformation of desired HA phase to beta-tri-calcium phosphate (β-TCP) phase. It appears that the grain boundary and interface defects formed during MA promote this transformation. …”

The Relationship between Cementitious Composition and Properties of Ultrahigh Strength Concrete by Dehui Wang, Zhiwen Zhang

“…It was found that the incorporation of silica fume (SF) improved the flowability and strength of UHSC, but it decreased the time of acceleration period, calcium hydroxide (CH) content, and porosity of UHSC at a certain content. …”

Diversity of Ectomycorrhizal Fungal Communities Associated with Tuber koreanum in Korea by Seok-Yong Park, Ahn-Heum Eom

“…Nonmetric multidimensional scaling analysis revealed significant positive correlations between the relative abundances of certain EMF genera and exchangeable potassium and calcium. These findings offer valuable insights into the ecological requirements of T. koreanum and support future conservation and cultivation strategies for truffle species in Korea.…”

Pharmacological class effects of anticancer drugs: opportunities for decreasing healthcare spending by Gregory R Pond, Ian F Tannock, Daniel A Goldstein, Leonard B Saltz

“…In the field of general medicine, class effects, or therapeutic interchangeability, have been declared for several families of drugs including statins, calcium channel blockers and ACE inhibitors. The existence of such class effects enables healthcare payers to negotiate for substantially lower drug prices, thereby reducing financial toxicity, both at an individual and societal levels. …”

Synthetic biology approaches to negative emissions technologies: a technological and ethical appraisal by Dominic Y. Logel, Josh Wodak

“…Synthetic biology has both altered and created biological pathways inspired by nature to develop new NETs that sequester greenhouse gases into industrially useful chemicals, such as biomass and calcium carbonate. However, synthetic biology continues to encounter difficulties when implementing and scaling up production due to a combination of hard limits (within biology) and ‘soft’ limits (of social and economic costs). …”

Inappropriate Defibrillator Shocks due to Mechanical Inference from an Investigational Device by Ying chi Yang, Thein Tun Aung, Abdul Wase

“…The principal mechanism is based on the stimulation of cardiac muscles by nonexcitatory electrical signals to augment the influx of calcium ions into the cardiomyocytes. The majority of patients receiving CCM therapy have concurrent implantable cardioverter defibrillators, and the manufacturer declares both devices can be used in parallel without any interactions. …”

Inhibitory effect of LY 255283 on the synthesis of leukotriene B4 and thromboxane A2 in human peripheral blood polymorphonuclear leukocytes and monocytes by M. Ugur, M. Melli

“…LY 255283 [(1-(5-ethyl-2-hydroxy-4-(6-methyl-6-)1H-tetrazol-5-yl)-heptyloxy) phenyl)ethanone], a specific leukotriene B4 (LTB4) receptor antagonist, inhibited the production of LTB4 in human peripheral blood polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNL) and in monocytes activated by calcium ionophore A23187. In human monocytes activated by ionophore it inhibited also the production of thromboxane B2 (TXB2). …”
