This study was carried out to observe the biocompatibility of gentamicin-coated hydroxyapatite (HA) on osteoblast using fluorescence microscopy. The specific objective was to observe the viability of the osteoblast on the gentamicin-coated hydroxyapatite (HA) and to determine the effect of the biomaterial coated with gentamicin on the osteoblast. O

As more and more real Wireless Sensor Network’s (WSN) applications are tested and deployed over the last decade, the research community of WSN realizes that several issues need to be revisited from practical angles, such as reliability and availability. Basically, wireless sensor networks suffer from resource limitations, high failure rates and f

Wife battering has become one of the major problems across the world. It cuts across lines of races, religion, income and classes of people. It is also deeply embedded in all cultures, so much so that millions of women consider it as a way of life.

Rotating machinery is a common class of machinery in industry. The root cause of faults in rotating machinery is often faulty rolling element bearings. These rolling element bearings wear out easily due to the metal-metal contacts and create faults in the outer race, inner race, or balls. This study compares several techniques used for monitoring b

Introduction Blunt abdominal injuries in children caused by bicycle handlebar are often difficult to diagnose, and the severity of the underlying injury may not be realized during the initial patient admission to the Emergency Department. High index of suspicion with proper radiologic evaluation can help identify presence of internal injuries. This

Vesical diverticula are herniations of the bladder mucosa through bladder wall musculature (detrusor muscle). The size of diverticular openings has functional implications because narrow-mouthed diverticula often empty poorly, leading to stasis of urine within diverticula which can lead to stone formation or epithelial dysplasia. A vesical divertic
