Numerical modeling of solar ponds

A SGSP is a basin of water where solar energy is trapped due to an artificially imposed salinity gradient. In a SGSP three zones can be identified: the surface and bottom zones that are both convective and an intermediate zone in between which is intended to be non-convective. This zone acts as a transparent insulation and allows the storage of solar energy at the bottom where it is available for use. A numeric...

Development and validation of a multiplex-PCR assay for X-linked intellectual d...

BACKGROUND: X-linked intellectual disability is a common cause of inherited cognitive deficit affecting mostly males. There are several genetic causes implicated in this condition, which has hampered the establishment of an accurate diagnosis. We developed a multiplex-PCR assay for the mutational hotspot regions of the FMR1, AFF2 and ARX genes. METHODS: The multiplex-PCR was validated in a cohort of 100 males...

Short- and medium-term effects of manual therapy on cervical active range of mo...

Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate effects of different manual techniques on cervical ranges of 17 motion and pressure pain sensitivity in subjects with latent trigger point of the upper trapezius muscle. 18 Methods: One hundred seventeen volunteers, with a unilateral latent trigger point on upper trapezius due to computer 19 work, were randomly divided into 5 groups: ischemic compression (...

Associação do índice tornozelo-braço com inflamação e alterações minerais óssea...

FUNDAMENTO: O índice tornozelo-braço (ITB) reduzido, inflamação e distúrbio mineral ósseo (DMO) estão associados com aumento no risco de morte e complicações cardiovasculares em pacientes em hemodiálise (HD), mas a relação entre esses fatores necessita ser elucidada. OBJETIVO: Avaliar a associação entre ITB anormal e DMO com inflamação em pacientes em HD. MÉTODOS: Esta análise transversal avaliou 478 pacientes ...

Ultra-performance liquid chromatographic method for simultaneous quantification...

A fast ultra-performance liquid chromatographic with diode-array detection method has been developed and validated for the determination of six protease inhibitors (indinavir, amprenavir, saquinavir, atazanavir, lopinavir, and ritonavir) and two non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (efavirenz and nevirapine). After liquid-liquid extraction of 0.5 mL plasma with methyl-tert-butyl ether, the analytes w...

A murine model of xenotransplantation of human glioblastoma with imunosupressio...

Several animal experimental models have been used in the study of malignant gliomas. The objective of the study was to test the efficacy of a simple, reproducible and low cost animal model, using human cells of glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) xenotransplantated in subcutaneous tissue of Wistar rats, immunosuppressed with cyclosporin given by orogastric administration, controlled by nonimunosuppressed rats. The an...

Thermal energy production by a dual solar pound

A Salt Gradient Solar Pond (SGSP) is a salt water basin that collects and stores solar energy. These devices rely on the existence of a non-convective zone (NCZ) that functions as a transparent thermal insulation zone, created by a salt gradient. Salinity and temperature gradients in this zone can give rise to double diffusive problems that can decrease the insulation properties of this zone. The stability of t...
