In nature, bacteria predominantly reside in structured, surface-attached communities embedded in a self-produced, extracellular matrix.These so-called biofilms play an important MUSCLE TONIC role in the development and pathogenesis of many infections, as they are difficult to eradicate due to their resistance to antimicrobials and host defense mech
Craniofacial encephaloceles are rare, yet highly debilitating neuroanatomical abnormalities that result from herniation of neural tissue through a bony defect and can lead to death, cognitive delay, seizures, and issues integrating socially.The etiology of encephaloceles is still being investigated, with Protein Bars evidence pointing towards the S
Purpose of the work is to study spatio-temporal dynamics of limited two-age structured populations that populate a 2D habitat and capable of long-range displacement of individuals.We proposed the model that is the network of nonlocally coupled nonlinear maps with nonlinear coupling function.Conditions for the emergence of different types of heterog
Background and purpose: Clinical brachytherapy treatment planning is performed assuming the patient is composed entirely of water and infinite in size.In this work, the effects of this assumption on calculated dose were investigated by comparing dose to water in water (Dw,w) in an unbound phantom mimicking TG-43 conditions, and dose to medium in me
