An Empirical Model for Estimating Remediation Costs at Contaminated Sites
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Springer Science + Business Media, Inc., 2005-10)
A model for estimating the remediation costs at contaminated sites is developed, in which the predictor variable is a composite of surface, subsurface, and contaminant risk factors. Calibration of the model is performed ...
Ventral pallidal neurons code incentive motivation: amplification by mesolimbic sensitization and amphetamine
(Blackwell Science Ltd, 2005-11)
Neurons in ventral pallidum fire to reward and its predictive cues. We tested mesolimbic activation effects on neural reward coding. Rats learned that a Pavlovian conditioned stimulus (CS+1 tone) predicted a second conditioned ...
Exploring the Public Understanding of Basic Genetic Concepts
(Kluwer Academic Publishers-Plenum Publishers; National Society of Genetic Counselors, Inc. ; Springer Science+Business Media, 2004-08)
It is predicted that the rapid acquisition of new genetic knowledge and related applications during the next decade will have significant implications for virtually all members of society. Currently, most people get exposed ...
Raman spectral signatures of mouse mammary tissue and associated lymph nodes: normal, tumor and mastitis
(John Wiley & Sons, Ltd., 2007-02)
Raman spectroscopy involves the interaction of light with the molecular vibrations and therefore can provide information about molecular structure, tissue composition and changes in its environment. We explored whether ...
A robust method for automated background subtraction of tissue fluorescence
(John Wiley & Sons, Ltd., 2007-09)
This paper introduces a new robust method for the removal of background tissue fluorescence from Raman spectra. Raman spectra consist of noise, fluorescence and Raman scattering. In order to extract the Raman scattering, ...
