Multi-color visualization and quantification of single RNA translation and HIV-1 programmed ribosomal frameshifting in living cells
… To achieve this, nascent chain tracking (NCT) was developed, a technique that uses multi-epitope tags and antibody-based fluorescent probes to visualize and quantify protein synthesis dynamics at the single-RNA level. NCT revealed an elongation rate of ~10 amino acids per second, with …

Nanoparticle Superlattice Processing: Monodispersed Building-Blocks & Single Crystal Films
Nanocomposite tectons (NCTs) offer a versatile method for systematically modulating material properties at the nanoscale. These building blocks are created by grafting nanoparticles with end-terminated polymers comprising supramolecular binding groups, akin to DNA base pair hydrogen bonding. This …

A comparison of three gadolinium based approaches to cancer therapy
Some recent neutron capture therapy (NCT) research has focused on using compounds containing the element gadolinium (Gd), which produces internal conversion and Auger cascade electrons upon absorbing thermal neutrons. The low energy, nanometer-range, Auger electrons are absorbed locally and …

Stochastic J-integral and realiability of composite laminates based on a computational methodology combining experimental investigation, stochastic finite element analysis and maximum entropy method
… The fracture behavior of laminates made of the NCT 301 graphite-epoxy composite material has been studied and further, a parametric study encompassing the effects of the laminate configuration, the number of stochastic simulations, the geometrical parameters of the laminate, and the crack length …

Compost Tea and Milk to Suppress Powdery Mildew (Podosphaera xanthii) on Pumpkins and Evaluation of Horticultural Pots Made from Recyclable Fibers Under Field Conditions
… both actively aerated (ACT) and non-aerated (NCT) compost teas, and sprays made from diluted milk. We evaluated these sprays for control of powdery mildew on pumpkins in field trials in Connecticut in 2008 and 2009, and in greenhouse trials in 2009. We also evaluated the compost teas and milk …

Neoadjuvant endocrine therapy for estrogen receptor positive breast cancer in an African setting
… toxicity compared to neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NCT). During the first wave of the COVID pandemic, clinician preference for NET increased significantly, buying time for hospital recovery before proceeding to surgery. To date, no studies have yet explicitly reported on the use of NET in an African …
