Hepatic stem cells in adult rats are activated by chemical injury to the liver, causing hepatic progenitor cells to proliferate, integrate into the hepatic plates, and differentiate into hepatocytes. In an attempt to model ...

Technologies for dynamic simulation of chemical process flowsheets, as implemented in equation-based dynamic simulators,allow solution of fairly sophisticated process models, that include detailed descriptions of physical ...

Initiated chemical vapor deposition (iCVD) is a novel technique for depositing polymeric thin films. It is able to deposit thin films of application-specific polymers in one step without using any solvents. Its uniqueness ...

Over the past decade the synthesis of colloidal semiconductor nanocrystals of diverse shapes and sizes has sparked tremendous interest in both the industrial and scientific communities. Much of the work thus far has been ...

The macroscopic metabolic phenotype of a cellular system, such as insulin resistance, is the result of the integration of many hundreds or thousands of preceding cellular events, which culminates in the cell's final response ...

A host of vital, current, and developing technologies, such as pyrolysis, thermal cracking, partial oxidation, and high-efficiency combustion engines, involve complex, gas-phase chemical mechanisms with hundreds of species ...
