Damage was caused by a variety of indenters that were specially designed to obtain a desired damage profile.
Using this approach, we have demonstrated that an illumination of Salmonella typhimurium cells with visible light in the presence of methylene blue gives rise to a DNA damage profile very similar to that of singlet oxygen in a cell-free system.
This may be the reason that BRCA1 and BRCA2 loss gives rise to a more aggravated DNA damage profile, as >90% of Brca1 Δ/Δ ;p53 Δ/Δ tumors and Brca2 Δ/Δ ;p53 Δ/Δ mammary tumors are carcinomas, compared to half of the p53 Δ/Δ mammary tumors, of which the other half are sarcomatoid.
The damage profile of NFCs included a combust region, a char region, a degradation region and a region of virgin material.
Damage profile analysis was in a good correlation with the experimental results.
TRIM'98 (Transport of Ions in Matter) code was used to simulate the damage profile in Nd YVO4 by a single and multi energy ion implantation, respectively.
Damage profile probed by etching the sample was found to be non-uniformly distributed in the implanted sample.
The probabilistic damage profile obtained according to these three methods is expressed in terms of damage ratios and the results are compared with each other.
The results simulated by both models accurately predicted the elastic loading response and captured overall damage profile compared with the experimental results.
The behaviour and damage profile of NFCs have been determined, and comprehensive mechanisms of thermal decomposition interpreted at both macroscopic and microscopic levels.
