Biomaterial Testing W Electrical StimulationEmily Koehler
This document discusses testing silver chloride and stainless steel as biomaterials for electrodes used in functional electrical stimulation (FES) systems. It aims to identify which material experiences less corrosion over time in an ionic solution mimicking biological fluids, and which stimulation patterns best extend electrode life. An experimental plan is proposed involving in vitro and potential future in vivo tests comparing the materials' conductivity and mass changes when implanted and subjected to various stimulation patterns over 9 months. The goal is to improve FES electrode technology by finding durable materials and stimulation methods that reduce corrosion and risks for patients needing repeated surgeries.
This document discusses bioremediation and phytoremediation. It defines bioremediation as using living organisms to treat environmental pollution by removing contaminants. There are different types of bioremediation based on the microorganisms or degradation process used. In situ bioremediation treats contaminants on-site, while ex situ bioremediation removes material to be treated elsewhere. Phytoremediation uses plants to stabilize, remediate or reduce contaminated soils and waters through processes like phytoextraction and rhizofiltration. The document outlines techniques for both and notes that while bioremediation is less expensive than other methods, it can be time-consuming and dependent on microbial populations and environmental factors
The document discusses different methods for spreading and laying out fabric prior to cutting, including face-to-face, face-up, and all-faces methods. It also describes factors like the direction of the fabric surface and design/nap direction. Key types are classified based on these factors. The linear properties of the material and whether it is cut or folded are also considered. Bundling systems for organizing cut pieces into production lots are outlined, including item, group, progressive, and unit production systems. An overview of the cutting room process is provided, from pattern making to numbering cut components to ensure proper assembly.
This document discusses second messenger systems, which relay signals from cell surface receptors to target molecules inside cells. There are three major classes of second messenger systems: 1) the adenylyl cyclase-cAMP system, which is activated by hormones like epinephrine and glucagon and uses cAMP as the second messenger; 2) the phospholipid system, which uses IP3 and DAG as second messengers; and 3) the calcium-calmodulin system, where calcium acts as the second messenger and binds to and activates calmodulin. These second messengers amplify signals and allow hormones and neurotransmitters to trigger intracellular responses.
This document provides an overview of the Ebola virus. It defines Ebola virus disease as a severe, often fatal disease caused by the Ebola virus. The Ebola virus is an enveloped, negative-strand RNA virus that causes hemorrhagic fever. It is transmitted through contact with infected body fluids and can cause internal and external bleeding. The document outlines the virus's structure, classification, transmission, symptoms, diagnosis, treatment and methods for controlling spread. It emphasizes that there is currently no licensed treatment and extensive research is still needed to develop vaccines and cures.

Secondary messengers are intracellular signaling molecules that are released within cells in response to extracellular signaling molecules known as first messengers like hormones and neurotransmitters. Common examples include cyclic AMP, inositol trisphosphate, diacylglycerol, and calcium ions. These secondary messengers help amplify and propagate intracellular signals by binding to target proteins and modulating their activity, often through phosphorylation. They allow cells to mount robust physiological responses despite the extracellular signals not directly crossing the cell membrane.
Emerging and Re-emerging Infectious DiseasesShaharul Sohan
This document provides an introduction to emerging and re-emerging infectious diseases. It defines emerging diseases as those that have not previously infected humans or only infected small numbers, while re-emerging diseases were previously major health problems but declined and are increasing again. Factors that drive disease emergence include ecological disruption, climate change, urbanization, international travel and trade, evolution of infectious agents, reduced human immunity, and war. Examples are given of notable emerging diseases like SARS, Ebola, Zika and re-emerging diseases like tuberculosis, dengue fever and malaria. Effective management of emerging infectious diseases requires strengthened surveillance, rapid response teams, antimicrobial resistance monitoring, and strong public health systems.
Este documento discute el envejecimiento desde varias perspectivas. Explica que las personas mayores a menudo son vistas como "algo" en lugar de "alguien" y tratadas de manera despectiva. También analiza teorías sobre el envejecimiento como la teoría de los radicales libres, que propone que los radicales libres dañan las estructuras celulares y causan el envejecimiento. El autor concluye que aunque existen múltiples teorías, el envejecimiento es el resultado de diversos factores y aún quedan pregunt
LCDs use liquid crystals and polarized light to display images on a thin, flat screen. They have advantages over older CRT displays like smaller size, lower power consumption, and lighter weight. LCD pixels use liquid crystals that can be aligned by electric fields to allow light to pass through polarized filters, turning pixels on and off. Active matrix LCDs provide higher resolution by adding a transistor to each sub-pixel for individual control.

Cats can provide benefits to those in retirement homes and facilities for people with dementia. Some cats, like Oscar in the US, have shown extraordinary empathy towards weak and elderly residents, reducing loneliness and being a source of joy. While there are potential negatives like allergies or damage to furniture, on the whole cats can provide companionship, a calming influence, and a sense of continuity for residents in their later lives. Facilities must consider responsibilities, sanitation, and what happens to the cat if its owner passes away.
