Although in vivo tests do reflect the actual response of the living tissue, from a biomechanical point of view the main difficulties are accurately determining the true force and the displacement distribution and ascertaining stress-free configuration of the biological entity.
This paper presents a new method for ascertaining residual stress fields in engineering components.
On the other hand, it is possible to use an FEA to ascertain the stress distributions of a subject's interior, which are difficult to measure in an experimental analysis.
During the design development of such machinery and materials it is advantageous to ascertain the stress load-sharing between the added particles and the binding matrix, in order to make estimates of the device's useful life and the material performance.
To ascertain whether stress fibers are associated with DF, La-A was added to the EPM induction system.
To ascertain whether stress-induced increases in CN-Aα were dependent on translation, we treated cultured astrocytes with siRNA specific for CN-Aα for 24 hours.
Recently we have done structural analysis of abiotic stress induced cyclophilin gene from Piriformospora indica., Here we have shown that OsCYP -25 gene transcript is upregulated in response to various abiotic stresses ascertaining its various functions directly or indirectly involved in cellular response to multiple abiotic stresses.
Therefore, to ascertain whether oxidative stress could also affect Bmi-1 degradation, we treated Atm+/+ NSCs with H2O2 and analyzed Bmi-1 and p21 levels.
To ascertain if the stress response pathway was activated in siRNA-treated cells, western blotting was carried out with antibody to T180/Y182 phosphorylated p38 (active p38) (Fig. 3C).
Contrary to traditional approaches, where total stresses are assumed to remain constant, recent studies have ascertained that total stresses in fact change in every direction as fluid extraction/injection disturbs the pore-pressure field and causes deformations.
Additionally, to ascertain whether these stress-responsive genes were involved in the response to cold or drought stress in A. mongolicus, we compared these stress-responsive genes with previously reported abiotic stress genes from other organisms documented in the Comparative Stress Genes Catalog of GCP (Generation Challenge Programme, http://www.generationcp.org).
