Skeletal muscle weakness and mitochondrial dysfunction in the osteogenesis imperfecta murine (oim) model
… in a mouse modeling a severe human type III OI (oim/oim), as mitochondria are important regulators of energy metabolism and overall cell health. We hypothesized that oim/oim mice, exhibiting severe skeletal muscle weakness would exhibit mitochondrial dysfunction suggesting a correlation between …

Understanding Hearing Loss in Osteogenesis Imperfecta
… To answer these questions, we used the <em>oim/oim</em> mouse model of severe OI type III, and applied synchrotron microtomography, second harmonic generation microscopy, Raman spectroscopy, nanoindentation, X-ray fluorescence microscopy, and auditory brainstem response tests.</p> <p>Our …

Solid Phase Crystallization of Vanadium Dioxide Thin Films and Characterization Through Scanning Electron Microscopy
… particles. Orientation Imaging Microscopy (OIM) was used to characterize and study the phase and the orientation of the vanadium dioxide crystals obtained, as well as to diferentiate them from other vanadium oxide stoichiometries that may have formed during the annealing process. There was …

Odor intensity learning in Drosophila
… new form of memory called odor intensity memory (OIM), characterized it and compared it to other olfactory memories. OIM is independent of some members of the known cAMP signaling pathway and very likely forms the rutabaga-independent component of the standard two-odor memory. The …

The role of type I collagen heterotrimers and homotrimers in mechanical strength and collagen cleavage
… brittle bone disease, osteogenesis imperfecta, oim, is characterized by a replacement of the alpha-2 chain by an alpha-1 chain, resulting in a homotrimer collagen molecule. Experimental studies of oim mice tendon and bone have shown reduced mechanical strength compared to normal mice. The …

Campaña de comunicación para promover el acceso a servicios de salud mental en jóvenes migrantes venezolanos de Lima Este
… Organización Internacional para las Migraciones (OIM). La propuesta surge como respuesta a la brecha existente entre la alta necesidad de atención en salud mental de la población migrante joven y la baja utilización de los servicios especializados disponibles, situación asociada a barreras …

ΜΕΛΕΤΗ ΧΑΡΑΚΤΗΡΙΣΜΟΥ ΤΩΝ ΣΤΕΡΕΩΝ ΒΙΟΜΗΧΑΝΙΚΩΝ ΑΠΟΒΛΗΤΩΝ ΠΕΡΙΟΧΗΣ ΘΕΣΣΑΛΟΝΙΚΗΣ ΚΑΙ ΚΑΤΕΡΓΑΣΙΑΣ ΑΥΤΩΝ ΓΙΑ ΑΣΦΑΛΗ ΔΙΑΘΕΣΗ ΣΤΟ ΠΕΡΙΒΑΛΛΟΝ
… SOLUTIONS SUCH AS: HCL, NAOH, H3PO4, EDTA O OIM OR HUMIC ACID 50MG/L. THE LEACHING TEST SHOWED THAT THE MAIN PROBLEM WAS THE HIGH CONCENDRACTION OF ARSENIC WHICH WAS DETERMINED IN THE LEACHATES OF TWO WASTES AND ALSO THE HIGH CONCENTRATION OF CADMIUM WHICH WAS DETERMINEDIN THE LEACHATES. THE …

Conceptualizing Silk Road as countercultural rebellion
… (SR) is an anonymous online illicit marketplace (OIM) that is often cited as an example of criminal innovation. I add that SR is more than just a marketplace and should be considered as a demonstration of rebellion. The aim of this research is to critically co-construct a definition of SR with the …

Glomerulosclerosis in the Col1a2-deficient mouse model : homotrimer pathogenesis and MMP expression
The Col1a2-deficient (oim) mouse model exclusively synthesizes homotrimeric type I collagen due to the lack of functional pro [alpha] 2(I) collagen chains. The mouse develops a type I collagen glomerulopathy that has previously been shown to initiate postnatally and progress in a gene …

ABNORMAL GRAIN GROWTH IN MAGNETOSTRICTIVE GALFENOL ROLLED SHEET
… analyzed using Orientation Imaging Microscope (OIM) software to obtain Inverse Pole Figures (IPF) and Orientation Distribution Function (ODF). Additionally, Ga loss, which lowers the magnetostrictive properties, under different conditions was investigated by Electron Probe Micro Analyzer (EPMA). …

Magnetic Detection of Microstructural Change in Power Plant Steels
… testing. The Orientation Imaging Microscopy (OIM) technique was used to investigate the grain orientations and grain boundary properties in the steel and their possible role in Barkhausen noise behaviour. The model again fitted the data well, and a clear relationship could be seen between the …

Microstructure of Flash processed Steel Characterized by Electron Backscatter Diffraction
Flash processing is a new heat treatment process being developed to produce steel with relatively high strength and ductility. It involves rapidly heating steel sheet or strip to a temperature in the austenite range and quenching; the entire thermal cycle takes place within 15 seconds. The …

Recovering Grain Boundary Inclination Parameters Through Oblique Double-Sectioning
A method for the retrieval of grain boundary inclination parameters of the grain boundary character distribution by oblique double-sectioning is proposed. The method, which is similar to the recovery of the orientation distributions from sets of incomplete pole-figures, is described along with a …
