Understanding the motion and the governing equations of a molecule's path in tissue is an ultimate requirement for the repeatable, site specific delivery of molecules [Joseph D. Hickey. Modelling the Motion of Ions and Molecules in Electroporation and Electrophoresis Field Conditions. University of South Florida, College of Arts and Sciences, Department of Physics, Tampa, Florida, 2003., Joseph D. Hickey and Richard Gilbert. Modeling the electromobility of ions in a target tissue. DNA and Cell Biology, 22 (12) (2003) 823-828.]. This paper describes a computationally efficient mathematical model and simulation technique for the examination of DNA fragments in a 1% agarose gel. The speed of the individual DNA fragments through the agarose gel was described through two parts. The maximum velocity was calculated using the Coulombic force divided by Stoke's law and that value was retarded by an exponential rate equation. The simulation utilizes previously published techniques modified for this specific application [Joseph D. Hickey and Richard Gilbert. Fluid flow electrophoresis model. Bioelectrochemistry, 63 (2) (2004) 365-367., Joseph D. Hickey and Richard Gilbert. Modeling the electromobility of ions in a target tissue. DNA and Cell Biology, 22 (12) (2003) 823-828.]. Five representative DNA fragment sizes that span the resolution of a 1% agarose gel were chosen for this analysis. The speeds corresponding to these five DNA fragment sizes were converted into discrete values and used in a 50 step simulation. The resultant error comparing the simulation with experimental distance was 7.76%. Through a 1-D optimization procedure, this error was reduced to 3.02% for a 52 step simulation. 相似文献

Two simple passive systems are presented for modifying the gaussian pulse train envelope produce by a dye-mode-locked Nd: YAG laser oscillator. The first system truncates the gaussian to produce a flat-topped envelope; the second system sharpens the envelope to a triangular form. The second system is analyzed as an intensity-dependent filter. 相似文献

Light at 1.06 μm from a mode-locked Nd:YAG laser has been successfully down-converted by two vibrational stimulated Raman shifts in H2 gas. Approximately 1 MW of power was produced at second-Stokes wavelength, 9.20 μm. Many other rational and vibrational shifts were observed, up to the seventh anti-Stokes at 260 nm. 相似文献

We have added time resolution to laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy in two forms, by gating an optical multichannel analyzer (OMA) and by time-resolving the output of a photomultiplier with a boxcar amplifier. Spectra were obtained for temporal segments of 25 to 100 ns, from 25 ns to 50 µs after initiation of the breakdown. OMA spectra of oxygen illustrate the power of this technique for survey purposes. The photomultiplier-boxcar arrangement was used to detect phosphorus atoms from diisopropylmethyl phosphonate in air, and also to detect chlorine in air, both in real time. In the former experiments we detected 690 ppm (w/w) of phosphorus and project a limit of detection with our current apparatus of 15 ppm (w/w). For chlorine, we observed signal from 120 ppm (w/w) and project a limit of detection of 60 ppm (w/w). 相似文献

Simple inexpensive high performance optical absorption detectors are possible using light emitting diodes (LEDs) as light sources. The designs presented in the literature are reviewed. Designs used by the investigators are described in detail with respect to construction, electronic design, performance and cost; these have not previously been described in the literature. Characteristics of commercially available LEDs are tabulated. At the simple end, a single beam, dc driven, transmittance output detector can be constructed within the body of a LED. At the high performance end, fully referenced, computer interfaced detectors are described that are pulsed at high speeds to attain measurement standard deviations in the range of 2-3 x 10(-6) absorbance. 相似文献

This work was an experimental investigation of a potential large-scale excimer laser system, in which a high-pressure KrF
gas mix was pumped by the 4-MeV electron beam from an available linear accelerator. As a function of the mix and the pressure,
fluorescence from KrF* and/or Kr2F* were produced with good efficiency. Comparing measured data with a kinetic model, it was found that the kinetics followed
the “normal” patterns seen in low-energy electron pumping. The data fitting process also resulted in a new value for the three-body
quenching rate constant for reactions involving Ar. A critical factor in the development of this laser will be an improvement
in beam control over that afforded by a simple solenoidal magnet. The conditions necessary for lasing are predicted; no inherent
limitations on scaling of the device were found. 相似文献

The microwave heating of two-dimensional slabs in a long rectangularwaveguide propagating the TE10 mode is examined. The temperaturedependency of the electrical conductivity and the thermal absorptivityis assumed to be governed by the Arrhenius law, while both theelectrical permittivity and the magnetic permeability are assumedconstant. The governing equations are the forced heat equationand the steady-state version of Maxwell's equation while theboundary conditions take into account both convective and radiativeheat loss. Approximate analytical solutions, valid for smallthermal absorptivity, are found for the temperature and theelectric-field amplitude using the Galerkin method. As the Arrheniuslaw is not amenable analytically, it is approximated by a rational-cubicfunction. At the steady state the temperature versus power relationshipis found to be multivalued; at the critical power level thermalrunaway occurs when the temperature jumps from the lower (cool)temperature branch to the upper (hot) temperature branch ofthe solution. In the steady-state limit the approximate analyticalsolutions are compared with the numerical solutions of the governingequations for various special cases. These are the limits ofsmall and large heat loss and an intermediate case involvingradiative heat loss. Results are also presented for a case wheredifferential cooling occurs on the different sides on the slab.An alternative heating scenario, where one end of the waveguideis blocked by a short, is also considered. The approximate solutionsare found for this geometry and compared in the small Biot-numberlimit to Kriegsmann (1997). Also, a control process is presented,which allows thermal runaway to be avoided and the desired finalsteady state to be reached. Various special cases of the feedbackparameters associated with the control process are examined. 相似文献

Background
Knowledge of how synapses alter their efficiency of communication is central to the understanding of learning and memory. The most extensively studied forms of synaptic plasticity are long-term potentiation (LTP) and its counterpart long-term depression (LTD) of AMPA receptor-mediated synaptic transmission. In the CA1 region of the hippocampus, it has been shown that LTP often involves a rapid increase in the unitary conductance of AMPA receptor channels. However, LTP can also occur in the absence of any alteration in AMPA receptor unitary conductance. In the present study we have used whole-cell dendritic recording, failures analysis and non-stationary fluctuation analysis to investigate the mechanism of depotentiation of LTP. 相似文献10.
Over the past 10 years a number of new techniques have emerged that allow the manipulation of single DNA molecules and other biopolymers (RNA, proteins, etc.). These experiments have permitted the measurement of the DNA stretching and twisting elasticity and have consequently revealed the essential role played by the DNA mechanical properties in its interactions with proteins. We shall first describe the different methods used to stretch and twist single DNA molecules. We will then focus on its behaviour under torsion, especially by discussing the different methods used to estimate its torsional modulus. 相似文献
