The IC50 of BDTF and PDTF were 25 µg/mL and 11 µg/mL respectively, while their methanol crude extracts demonstrated lower antiviral efficacy (IC50 ≈ 101-107 µg/mL). BDTF and PDTF also exerted a similar higher virucidal effect (IC50 of 11 µg/mL) than methanol crude extracts (IC50 ≈ 52-66 µg/mL). Furthermore, all the extracts inhibited the attachme…[Read more]

The complex effects of plant cannabinoids on human physiology is not yet fully understood, but include a wide spectrum of effects on immune modulation. The immune system and its inflammatory effector pathways are recently emerging as possible causative factors in psychotic disorders. The present study aimed to investigate whether self-administered…[Read more]

The CFRP material was found to give good thermo-elastic characteristics at lower deposited heat power, however, this was not the case for higher deposited heat power (e.g. 200 W). The anisotropic property of the laminate had a significant influence in managing the thermal stresses. The study was repeated for carbon fibers doped with nanoparticles…[Read more]

Results The total number of first therapy sessions completed as planned did not vary according to group allocation (111 of 139 sessions for tDCS, 110 of 147 sessions for sham treatment; chi-square 1.0; P = .31). Conclusions Our results suggest that, while tDCS to the DLPFC was well tolerated, it did not significantly influence the number of…[Read more]
