TOXICOLOGIC EVALUATION FOR AMORPHOUS SILICA NANOPARTICLES: GENOTOXIC AND NON-GENOTOXIC TUMOR-PROMOTING POTENTIAL

Toxicologic Evaluation for Amorphous Silica Nanoparticles: Genotoxic and Non-Genotoxic Tumor-Promoting Potential

Amorphous silica nanoparticles (SiO2NPs) have been widely used in medicine including targeted drug/DNA delivery, cancer therapy, and enzyme immobilization.Nevertheless, SiO2NPs should be used with caution due to safety concerns associated with unique physical and chemical characteristics.The objective of this study was to determine the effects of S

APPLICATION OF STATISTICAL METHODS TO ASSESS THE METROLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS OF RADIO-HOLOGRAPHIC MEASURING COMPLEXES

Practical application of the radio-holographic method for measuring the characteristics of antennas, especially when conducting acceptance testing of systems, requires an adequate assessment of the errors in the recovery of long-range characteristics.These errors appear to be a superposition composed of various sources, having different nature, dif
