Dyon electric charge and fermion fractionalization
, 1997 A first principles calculation of the quantum corrections to the electric charge of a dyon in an N=2 gauge theory with arbitrary gauge group is presented. These corrections arise from the fermion fields via the mechanism of fermion fractionalization. For

Apoptosis induction on human hepatoma cells Hep G2 of decabrominated diphenyl ether (PBDE-209) [PDF]
, 2007 Polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) are an important class of halogenated organic brominated flame retardants. Because of their presence in abiotic and biotic environments widely and their structural similarity to polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs ...

Associations of Sleep and Shift Work with Osteoarthritis Risk
Arthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.Objective Daily rhythms may be critical for maintaining homeostasis of joint tissues. We aimed to investigate the relationships between circadian clock disruption, sleep, and osteoarthritis (OA) risk in humans. Methods In the UK Biobank, a prospective 500,000‐person cohort, we evaluated associations between sleep duration, sleeplessness/insomnia, and ...

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.In this experimental study, the mechanical properties of additively manufactured Ti‐6Al‐4V lattice structures of different geometries are characterized using compression, four point bending and fatigue testing. While TPMS designs show superior fatigue resistance, SplitP and Honeycomb lattice structures combine high stiffness and strength. The resulting

Z‐Scheme Water Splitting Systems Based on Solid‐State Electron Conductors
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.This review examines the latest advances in Z‐scheme overall water splitting (OWS) systems for solar hydrogen production. These systems consist of suspended or immobilized hydrogen evolution photocatalysts (HEPs) and oxygen evolution photocatalysts (OEPs).

Amoebal endosymbiont Protochlamydia induces apoptosis to human immortal HEp-2 cells. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Protochlamydia, an environmental chlamydia and obligate amoebal endosymbiotic bacterium, evolved to survive within protist hosts, such as Acanthamobae, 700 million years ago. However, these bacteria do not live in vertebrates, including humans.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.There is a significant need for biomaterials with well‐defined stability and bioactivity to support tissue regeneration. In this study, we developed a tunable microgel platform that enables the decoupling of stiffness from porosity, thereby promoting bone regeneration.

Mitotic HEp-2 Cells Recognition under Class Skew [PDF]
, 2011 Indirect immunofluorescence (IIF) is the recommended method to diagnose the presence of antinuclear autoantibodies in patient serum. A main step of the diagnostic procedure requires to detect mitotic cells in the well under examination. However, such cells rarely occur in comparison to other cells and, hence, traditional recognition algorithms fail in ...
