Metabolic phenotype of adult mice offspring obtained from different variants of embryo transfer by M. V. Anisimova, Ya. Gong, N. S. Yudin, Yu. M. Moshkin, L. A. Gerlinskaya

“…In this case, the offspring of the 2cl-2cl and 2cl-bl groups were characterized by a higher tolerance to glucose load (GTT) compared with the control and the Bl-bl group. Stable deviations of body compositions and glucose homeostasis indices detected in experimental groups of progenies indicate the phenotypic significance of the embryo transplantations per se.…”

The Role of Rare Earth Oxides in Enhancing Radiation Shielding of Thermoplastic Polyurethane Composites: A Combined WinXCom and MCNP6 Study by Seda Erdönmez

“…The WinXCom and MCNP6 simulations showed strong consistency across different additive rates and gamma radiation energies, with relative deviations ranging from 0-12.06 %. Notably, increasing the concentration of rare earth oxides in the TPU matrix improved the shielding properties of the composites, with a 30% by-weight addition of Er2O3 providing the best radiation shielding performance.…”

Investigation of Criteria for Comparing of Natural and LED Radiation Spectral Distribution by P. S. Bogdan, E. G. Zaytseva, A. I. Stepanenko

“…Their comparison allowed us to conclude that a more complex calculation algorithm, but higher performance for an additive technique than for a subtractive one with the same minimization results.It was found that to simulate the spectral composition of natural radiation using LEDs, it is most effective to use the criteria "standard deviations of the relative differences between the optical and visible spectral components of natural and LED radiation". …”
