REVEALING UNDERDRAWINGS IN WALL PAINTINGS OF COMPLEX STRATIGRAPHY WITH A NOVEL REFLECTANCE PHOTOACOUSTIC IMAGING PROTOTYPE

Revealing Underdrawings in Wall Paintings of Complex Stratigraphy with a Novel Reflectance Photoacoustic Imaging Prototype

Revealing precious hidden features by a completely non-invasive approach is one of the crucial issues in the Heritage Science field.In this regard, concealed fresco paintings still represent an analytical challenge.This paper addresses the Freezer Basket Front specific issue in wall painting diagnostics by the photoacoustic (PA) imaging technique,

Gene knockdown by structure defined single-stem loop small non-coding RNAs with programmable regulatory activities

Gene regulation by trans-acting small RNAs (sRNAs) has considerable advantages over other gene regulation strategies.However, synthetic sRNAs mainly take natural sRNAs (MicC or SgrS) as backbones and comprise three functional elements folding into two or more stem-loop structures: an mRNA base pairing region, an Hfq-binding structure, and a rho-ind

Lesion mapping and functional characterization of hemiplegic children with different patterns of hand manipulation

Brain damage in children with unilateral cerebral palsy (UCP) affects motor function, with varying severity, making it difficult the performance of daily actions.Recently, qualitative and semi-quantitative methods have been developed for lesion classification, but studies on mild to moderate hand impairment are lacking.The present study aimed to ch
