Atomic force microscopy (AFM) has evolved from the originally morphological imaging technique to a powerful and multifunctional technique for manipulating and detecting the interactions between molecules at nanometer resolution.However, AFM cannot provide the precise information of synchronized molecular groups and has many shortcomings in the aspe

Here we report a detailed study of the interactions of nanoparticles, formed by the self-assembly of cholesterol-containing porphyrins, with lipid membranes.We show that the interaction is a two-step process: first, the docking and fusion, then, the redistribution of the building blocks of the self-assembled nanoparticles (SANs henceforth).Analysis

Purpose: To Outdoor Area Rug report a case of a 46-year-old patient affected by polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy (PCV) in large colloid drusen (LCD) and to show how switching to intravitreal injection of aflibercept could be considered as a useful treatment of PCV not responsive to other anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) injections.Ob

In the Early POLLEN PLUS ENERGY Iron Age, the southern part of the Former Yugoslavian Republic of Macedonia (FYROM) features a group of cemeteries which show very special burial rites and clearly differ from the usual habits in the Central Balkan area.The funeral rite (inhumations in stone cists) is standardized as well as the offerings Barrel sadd

Background: Female sex workers (FSWs) play a critical role in the heterosexual transmission of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)/sexually transmitted infections (STIs) in China.Several studies reported that street-based FSWs have higher risk behaviors than establishment-based FSWs.Therefore, street-based FSWs should be specifically targeted for HI
