Anisotropic Geodesic Filter for Speckle Noise Reduction and Edge Preservation in 2D and 3D Echocardiography
DownloadFall 2018
It is a challenge today for medical practitioners and manufacturers to improve ultrasound image quality as the technology has reached its physical limits. Ultrasound images are a great help for non-invasive diagnostics but suffer from a wide variety of artifacts such as shadowing, limited field...

Anthocyanins and Gingerols Exhibit Synergism in their Anticancer and Antioxidant Effects in Vitro
DownloadFall 2022
Anthocyanins and gingerols are naturally occurring phenolic compounds abundant in berries and ginger, respectively. They have been reported to induce antioxidant effects, inhibit the growth of different cancer cell lines, and stimulate apoptosis by modulating different cellular signal pathways....

Characterization of magnetic nanoparticles as contrast agents and their application for quantitative magnetic susceptibility monitoring of the waterflooding of heavy oil in real time
DownloadSpring 2018
Waterflooding is one enhanced oil recovery process used in heavy oil reservoirs such as at Cold Lake in North-Eastern Alberta. However, little has been published in terms of imaging heavy oil waterfloods, mainly due to the similar densities of water and heavy oil, which makes it difficult to...

Bimetallicity is known to provide synergistic effects and improve catalytic performance of monometallic counterparts in a variety of applications. Conventional impregnation methods for supported catalyst preparation do not allow for the control of bimetallic nanoparticle structure or size, which...

The beneficial feature of the application of natural gas in the automotive industry is the lowest carbon content of any fossil fuel, which results in the lowest CO2 emissions. On the other hand, the concern of atmospheric pollution due to methane emissions from natural-gas vehicles (NGV) engines...

This letter describes a new method for fabricating supramolecular microgels from supramonomers. To this end, we designed and assembled supramonomers with one acrylate moiety on each end on the basis of noncovalent host–guest interactions, which could be utilized as a cross-linker. Then...
