Modeling Thermal Effects of Pulsating Currents in Human Tissues: How to Prevent Necrosis [PDF]
BiophysicaIn certain clinical applications, pulsating currents are applied to specific body regions for therapeutic purposes. In this paper, we analyze the resulting thermal field to determine the optimal amplitude, period, and duration of these stimuli, ensuring ...

Thermal inactivation of infectious hematopoietic necrosis and infectious pancreatic necrosis viruses [PDF]
Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 1981 A plaque assay was used to follow the inactivation kinetics of infectious hematopoietic necrosis virus and infectious pancreatic necrosis virus in cell culture media at various temperatures. Inactivation of infectious hematopoietic necrosis virus in a visceral organ slurry was compared with that in culture media.
