Esophageal stenting for unresectable cancer (review of literature)
To date, the main way to stop dysphagia for patients with unresectable esophageal cancer is stenting. Being widely accepted and effective, this technique, however, allows for oral nutrition only for an average of 3–4 months and is accompanied by the ...

Iodine bioavailability in acidic soils of Northern Ireland [PDF]
Iodine is an essential trace element for humans and grazing animals and is often deficient. Our aim was to investigate the role of soil properties in retaining and ‘fixing' iodine in soils and thereby controlling its phyto-availability to grass.

The use of non-radioactive iodine as a label in immunoassays [PDF]
The research described in this thesis has centered on the development of a nonradioactive iodine label for use in immunoassays. A protein can be iodinated with nonradioactive iodine, used in an immunoassay, and the iodine label detected by a chemical ...

Climate Control of Iodine Isotopic Composition Evidenced by Argentine Entisols Records
The long half‐life of 129I makes it useful for dating marine sediments aged 2–90 Ma. However, the lack of initial value dating hinders its application for dating terrestrial sediments.
