Development of anti-fouling endoscope tip hood for gastrointestinal endoscopy

Scientific Reports
The contamination of the endoscope tip lens results in poor endoscopic imaging. To prevent the adsorption of contaminants, we applied a soft contact lens made of 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate hydrogel to the tip of a gastrointestinal endoscope ...

Cytokinins and their function in developing seeds.

Acta chimica Slovenica, 2010
Cytokinins are a major group of plant hormones that control various processes in plant growth and development. Chemically they are N6-substituated adenine derivatives, including their respective ribotides, ribosides and glucosides. The inter-conversion between different cytokinins metabolites represents the transition between active, inactive, storage ...
