Crosslinking of dermal sheep collagen using hexamethylene diisocyanate [PDF]
The use of hexamethylene diisocyanate (HMDIC) as a crosslinking agent for dermal sheep collagen (DSC) was studied. Because HMDIC is only slightly water soluble, a surfactant was used to obtain a clear and micellar crosslinking solution and to promote the

Quasiparticle scattering and local density of states in the d-density wave phase [PDF]
We study the effects of single-impurity scattering on the local density of states in the high-$T_c$ cuprates. We compare the quasiparticle interference patterns in three different ordered states: d-wave superconductor (DSC), d-density wave (DDW), and ...

Online Disjoint Set Cover Without Prior Knowledge [PDF]
The disjoint set cover (DSC) problem is a fundamental combinatorial optimization problem concerned with partitioning the (hyper)edges of a hypergraph into (pairwise disjoint) clusters so that the number of clusters that cover all nodes is maximized.

Biocompatibility and tissue regenerating capacity of crosslinked dermal sheep collagen [PDF]
The biocompatibility and tissue regenerating capacity of four crosslinked dermal sheep collagens (DSC) was studied. In vitro, the four DSC versions were found to be noncytotoxic or very low in cytoxicity.

Structural evolution of PVDF during storage or annealing [PDF]
The effect of annealing PVDF at temperatures above Tg and below Tm was investigated by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermostimulated current spectroscopy (TSC) and solid-state NMR.

DDW Order and its Role in the Phase Diagram of Extended Hubbard Models [PDF]
We show in a mean-field calculation that phase diagrams remarkably similar to those recently proposed for the cuprates arise in simple microscopic models of interacting electrons near half-filling.

Production of a subunit vaccine candidate against porcine post-weaning diarrhea in high-biomass transplastomic tobacco [PDF]
Post-weaning diarrhea (PWD) in piglets is a major problem in piggeries worldwide and results in severe economic losses. Infection with Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) is the key culprit for the PWD disease.

David Stafford-Clark (1916-1999): seeing through a celebrity psychiatrist [PDF]
This article uses the mass-media career of the British psychiatrist David Stafford-Clark (1916-1999) as a case study in the exercise of cultural authority by celebrity medical professionals in post-war Britain.

Cure kinetics of ring-opening metathesis polymerization of dicyclopentadiene [PDF]
The cure kinetics of polydicyclopentadiene (pDCPD) prepared by ring-opening metathesis polymerization with three different concentrations of Grubbs' catalyst was examined using differential scanning calirimetry (DSC).

Chloroquine-induced bull's eye maculopathy [PDF]
We report the case of a 51-year-old woman who presented with bilateral progressive deterioration in vision after taking chloroquine for severe rheumatoid arthritis for 10 years.
