Hydrogels are hydrophilic, three-dimensional networks that are able to absorb large quantities of water or biological fluids, and thus have the potential to be used as prime candidates for biosensors, drug delivery vectors, and carriers or matrices for cells in tissue engineering.In this critical review article, advantages of the hydrogels that ove
The observation that mice with a selective ablation of the androgen receptor (AR) in Sertoli cells (SC) (SCARKO mice) display a complete block in meiosis supports the contention that SC play a pivotal role in the control of germ cell development by androgens.To delineate the physiological and molecular mechanism responsible for this control, we com
Recent studies indicate that bow foil biomimetic systems can significantly improve ship propulsion in waves.In this paper, the DTMB 5415 ship model is taken as the object and a semi-active elastic flapping foil is proposed to install at its bow underwater position.When a ship sails in head wave, heave and pitch motion will occur, which will drive t
Coir fiber is a natural fiber extracted from the husk of coconut.Coir geotextiles made from coir fibers which are biodegradable and eco-friendly are a good alternative to polymeric geotextile.Biodegradation is a factor which limits its civil Chrome LPG Convertible engineering applications.Hence this study is made to explore the degradation rate of
