Immobilization of DNA on Magnetic Microparticles for Mercury Enrichment and Detection with Flow Cytometry
(Wiley, 2011-04-26)Mercury detection in water has attracted a lot of research interest due to its highly toxic nature and adverse environmental impact. In particular, the recent discovery of specific binding of HgII to thymine-rich (T-rich) ... -
Immunogenicity and antitumor activity of the superlytic λF7 phage nanoparticles displaying a HER2/neu-derived peptide AE37 in a tumor model of BALB/c mice
(Elsevier, 2018-06-28)Phage display technique has been increasingly researched for vaccine design and delivery strategies in recent years. In this study, the AE37 (Ii-Key/HER-2/neu 776–790) peptide derived from HER2 (human epidermal growth ... -
The Impact Of Aggregating Serogroups In Dynamic Models Of Neisseria Meningitidis Transmission
(BioMed Central, 2015-07-30)Background: Neisseria meningitidis (Nm) is a pathogen of multiple serogroups that is highly prevalent in many populations. Serogroups associated with invasive meningococcal disease (IMD) in Canada, for example, include A, ... -
The impact of compressive force magnitude on the in vitro neutral zone range and passive stiffness during a flexion–extension range of motion test
(Taylor & Francis, 2015-02-23)The objective of this work was to examine the influence of compressive force magnitude on a functional spinal unit’s (FSU) flexion–extension neutral zone measured during pure moment (PM) tests. Each porcine cervical FSU ... -
Impact of contact lens wear on epithelial alterations in keratoconus
(Elsevier, 2021-03)Purpose The purpose of this study was to characterize the central epithelial thickness (CET) of penetrating keratoplasty corneal specimens obtained from patients with keratoconus (KC) and correlate the histological patterns ... -
Impact of dissolved oxygen during UV-irradiation on the chemical composition and function of CHO cell culture media
(Public Library of Science, 2016-03-14)Ultraviolet (UV) irradiation is advantageous as a sterilization technique in the biopharmaceutical industry since it is capable of targeting non-enveloped viruses that are typically challenging to destroy, as well as smaller ... -
The Impact of Goal Progress Velocity on Affect While Pursuing Multiple Sequential Goals
(American Psychological Association, 2020)Past research has identified velocity (i.e., rate of goal progress) as a determinant of individuals’ affective experiences during goal pursuit. Specifically, rapid progress is a pleasant experience, whereas slow progress ... -
The impact of government subsidy on supply chains’ sustainability innovation
(Elsevier, 2019-07-01)Motivated by recently observed industry and government practices, in this paper we endogenize government subsidy in a research joint venture (RJV). In particular, we present a three-player game in which a government ... -
The Impact of Green Lending on Credit Risk in China
(MDPI, 2018-06-14)This study explores China’s green credit policy from a credit risk perspective. Green finance has been growing rapidly in China since the government issued its Green Credit Policy. The objective of this study is to explore ... -
The Impact Of Human-Environment Interactions On The Stability Of Forest-Grassland Mosaic Ecosystems
(Nature Publishing Group, 2013-09-19)Forest-grassland mosaic ecosystems can exhibit alternative stables states, whereby under the same environmental conditions, the ecosystem could equally well reside either in one state or another, depending on the initial ... -
Impact of intellectual capital on small-firm growth: a longitudinal study from Inc. 5000
(Taylor & Francis, 2021-05-21)We explore whether intellectual capital is a precursor to Small and Medium Enterprise (SME) growth. We use data from Inc. 5000 of fast-growing SMEs in the USA and match companies to patent applications. We use a zero-inflated ... -
