EFFECTS OF EXTRACT SOLUTION FROM MAGNESIUM ALLOYS SUPPLEMENTED WITH DIFFERENT COMPOSITIONS OF RARE EARTH ELEMENTS ON IN VITRO EPITHELIAL AND OSTEOBLAST PROGENITOR CELLS

Background: Magnesium alloys (Mg-alloys) have gained significant attention in recent years as a potential bioactive material for clinical applications.The incorporation of rare earth elements (REEs) into Mg-alloys has been of particular interest due to their potential to improve both mechanical and biological properties.Although there are diverse r

Over the past 16 years, three coronaviruses (CoVs), severe acute respiratory syndrome CoV (SARS-CoV) in 2002, Middle East respiratory syndrome CoV (MERS-CoV) in 2012 and 2015, and SARS-CoV-2 in 2020, have been causing severe and fatal human epidemics.The unpredictability of coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19) poses a major burden on health care and e

Abstract Composite sucker rod has been extensively used due to its high strength, Horse Cooler Rugs light weight and corrosion resistive nature.However, such composite sucker rod is difficult for conventional non-destructive evaluation (NDE) techniques to inspect because of its complex material and/or structure.It is thus useful to embark research

BACKGROUND: Only limited information is currently available on the prevalence of vector borne and zoonotic pathogens in dogs and ticks in Nigeria.The aim of this study was to use molecular techniques to detect and characterize vector borne pathogens in dogs and ticks from Nigeria.METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS: Blood samples and ticks (Rhipicephalu

Three years after the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, better knowledge on the transmission of respiratory viral infections (RVI) including the contribution of asymptomatic infections encouraged most healthcare centers to implement universal masking.The evolution of the SARS-CoV-2 epidemiology and improved immunization of the population call for
