Computational simulation of the intervertebral disc [PDF]
, 2013 The intervertebral disc is a complex structure unlike any other in the human body. The capability to withstand high loads and deformations in six degrees of freedom is facilitated by the unique soft tissue structures. However, the mechanical behaviour of

Diffusion of antibiotics in intervertebral disc [PDF]
Journal of Biomechanics, 2018 Delivering charged antibiotics to the intervertebral disc is challenging because of the avascular, negatively charged extracellular matrix (ECM) of the tissue. The purpose of this study was to measure the apparent diffusion coefficient of two clinically relevant, charged antibiotics, vancomycin (positively charged) and oxacillin (negatively charged) in

On disc protoplanet interactions in a non-barotropic disc with thermal diffusion [PDF]
Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2008 We study the disc planet interactions of low-mass protoplanets embedded in a circumstellar disc. We extend the standard theory of planet migration from the usual locally isothermal assumption to include non-barotropic effects, focusing on the validity of linear theory.

Helicobacter pylori susceptibility testing by disc diffusion [PDF]
Journal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy, 2002 The bacterium Helicobacter pylori is found in c. 40% of the population and is responsible for the development of duodenal disease. Triple treatment with a proton-pump inhibitor or bismuth salt plus two antibiotics is now commonplace in all patients diagnosed.
