The Effectiveness of Hollow Fibre Membranes in Transferring Flue Gas into Microalgal Culture for Sequestration Purposes
(2011-10-26)Efficient gas transfer remains a technical limitation for microalgal sequestration of greenhouse gases. Hollow fibre membranes (HFM) have been shown by previous researchers to provide high mass transfer efficiency of CO2 ... -
EFFECTIVENESS OF HOSPITAL CENTRAL STERILIZATION PROCESSING VS. CLINIC-BASED STERILIZATION PROTOCOLS: A NON-INFERIORITY TRIAL
(2014-09-30)Purpose: .The purpose of the study was to determine if clinic-based sterilization is non-inferior to hospital-based central sterilization. Methods: This study was a blinded and standardized, direct comparison of commonly ... -
Effectiveness of Marine Species at Risk Conservation within the UNEP Regional Seas Programme: Taking Stock and Charting Future Courses
(2023-12-06)The impending biodiversity crises demands urgent, effective action. The transboundary nature of many marine species at risk makes international law a necessary tool in this endeavour. The United Nations Environment Programme ... -
The Effectiveness of Outdoor Therapy with Military Veterans: Exploring Participant Perspectives
(2023-07-14)ABSTRACT Objective: This study explores an understudied area of outdoor therapy, an alternative therapeutic model for addressing mental health with military veterans. It includes the perspectives of outdoor therapy ... -
Effectiveness of TTX in Promoting Anatomical Recovery from MD in Kittens
(2017-08-01)Monocular deprivation (MD) during the critical period of visual development precipitates neuronal alterations in the dorsal lateral geniculate nucleus (dLGN) of kittens that include significant reduction in axon terminals ... -
EFFECTS OF 5′-TRIPHOSPHATE METABOLITES OF SPECIFIC ANTIVIRAL DRUGS ON CTP SYNTHASE ACTIVITY
(2021-12-16)Cytidine-5′-triphosphate (CTP) synthase (CTPS) catalyzes the biosynthesis of CTP from UTP using either L-glutamine or free NH3 as a substrate. CTP is an essential precursor for viral replication; thus, its production has ... -
The Effects of a 2-Week Isometric Neck Exercise Training Program on Standing Balance.
(2021-08-16)The purpose was to assess a neck-specific exercise program on balance performance. Balance was measured using standing tests (Romberg (ROM), Modified Romberg (MROM), and Unipedal Stance) on force plates to assess center ... -
Effects of a novel metabolite of pentoxifylline in vitro and in vivo in models of fibrosis and inflammation.
(Dalhousie University, 2004) -
The effects of age and sex on biomechanical asymmetries of the lower limbs during a walk, run and side-cut task
(2020-05-04)INTRODUCTION: The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is an important contributor to knee joint stability during athletic maneuvers such as a side-cut. ACL rupture is associated with short- and long-term consequences that ... -
Effects of age on the arterial system and the heart.
(Dalhousie University, 1997) -
Effects of an Aquaculture Fish Farm on the Sediment Geochemistry of a Naturally Anoxic Basin
(2023-08-01)The Whycocomagh Basin, located in the Bras d’Or Lakes, Nova Scotia, is a naturally deep and anoxic basin that presently houses a Steelhead Trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) aquaculture farm operated as an economic resource by ... -
EFFECTS OF APEX ANGLE VARIATION ON FLOW DEVELOPMENT IN JETS ISSUING FROM DIFFERENT ISOSCELES TRIANGULAR ORIFICES
(2011-08-10)Isothermal, incompressible jets of air issuing from sharp-edged isosceles triangular orifices with apex angles of 10°, 20°, 30°, 70° and 160° into still surrounding air, were used to study the effects of apex angle variation ... -
The Effects of Beta-Adrenergic Drugs on Proliferation and Differentiation of Mid-Gestation Ventricular Cells and Their Impact on Donor Cell Transplantation
(2016-11-01)Heart disease is the leading cause of death worldwide. Cell transplantation therapy is emerging as a method for regeneration of the heart muscle cells (cardiomyocytes) lost during disease. Despite several advances in cell ... -
