Dense non-aqueous phase liquids, also known as DNAPLs are chemicals denser than water, which do not typically dissolve into water. These toxic chemicals seep through the soil and find ways into groundwater depending on the physical chemistry of the substance(s). When the dense non-aqueous phase liquids (DNAPLs) have entered the groundwater they will continue to flow with it as a result of the hydrological cycle. There is no absolute way of knowing where the source of the DNAPLs is located, or if…

Tobacco products are ever so threatening in the U.S., where according to U.S. Food and Drug administration 25% of the deaths in men and women age 35-69 are caused from smoking related diseases (U.S. Food and Drug Administration 2017). This number was even higher among substance abusers and people with mental health problems (Bandiera, F. C, et al, 2015, p.1). Even if someone does not die from smoking cigarettes, then they are more than likely to contract a preventable disease. With new people…

enough to bend with the skin is used for medical diagnostic sensor that can monitor nerve and muscle activity and then connect the physical world and the cyber world in a very natural way that one can feel very comfortable with. Or visualize a nanoparticle that is packed in a pharmacy which can deliver…

Ultrafast Electron Microscopy has been demonstrated to be an effective table-top technique for imaging the temporally-evolving dynamics of matter with subparticle spatial resolution on the time scale of atomic motion. A stringent enhancement of the UEM temporal resolution is demanded for recording snapshots of the electron motion which will provide a real-time access to all microscopic motions outside the atomic core and radically change our insight into the workings of the microcosm. Here, we…

Introduction: It all started from a dream of John F. Kennedy in 1962. His dream was to put a person on the moon. He called it eponymous moonshot. At that time, Kennedy’s dream seemed impossible, but everything great starts from a great belief. Astro Teller, a captain of The Moonshot factory, and Sergey Brin, a co-founder of Google, are followers of Kennedy’s dream. In 2007, they opened a subsidiary «Google X» to boost innovations. After October 2015, X operated under Alphabet Inc. X…

Although the 3-D printing industry did not see much growth in the first twenty years of its existence, the recently rapid development of the technology has led to breakthroughs within the field of medicine. Old fashioned and impersonal prosthetics are slowly being replaced by custom, innovative replacements. The 3-D printer is an incredibly efficient tool that doctors have begun using to create personalized solutions for problems that the medical field previously had no solutions for. Johnson…

3. Measurement of glycated albumin As mentioned before, the measured albumin is considered a reliable tool to supplement other methods of measuring blood glucose, such as HbA1c and standard assays for glycemic control and diagnosis diabetes [30]. The HbA1c lifespan is estimated to be about 90 to 120 days. Thus, it is known as an indicator for the assessment of long-term glycemic control [17, 31]. However, the level of HbA1c is not suitable for the assessment of the patient’s status in some…

generally nontoxic nature, CPPs have gained a lot of popularity and expanded research. Prior to the first CPP being discovered in 1988, gene therapy and delivery of cargo such as drugs, peptides and proteins, DNA, RNA, oligonucleotides, liposomes, nanoparticles, quantum dots, etc. were susceptible…
