Putative living entities called nanobacteria (NB) are unusual for their small sizes (50-500 nm), pleomorphic nature, and accumulation of hydroxyapatite (HAP), and have been implicated in numerous diseases involving extraskeletal calcification.By adding precipitating ions to cell culture medium containing serum, mineral nanoparticles are generated t
Theoretical and empirical evidence are synthesized to show that underwater acoustic sensing techniques may provide a valuable tool for measuring the wind speed and determining the destructive power of a hurricane.This is done by first developing a model for the acoustic intensity and mutual intensity in an ocean waveguide due to a hurricane and Jui
