The simulation results show that CO2 foam flooding can improve oil recovery through a combination of various mechanisms, including selective blocking and conformance control, gas up-flow effect, reservoir energy support, and the improvement of displacement efficiency.
16 Gemcitabine has been reported to restore immunocompetence via various mechanisms, including selective deletion of myeloid derived suppressor cells (MDSC) that inhibit antitumor immunity.
Differences in ESKD risk allele frequencies at multiple loci within a population could arise through a variety of mechanisms, including selective effects.
The polymorphism ATG16L1 T300associatedted with increased risk of Crohn's disease, impairs pathogen defense mechanisms including selective autophagy, but specific pathway interactions altered by the risk allele remain unknown.
Downstream signaling cascades ameliorate ER stress via several mechanisms, including selective translation inhibition and upregulation of genes that encode enzymes that aid in protein folding, maturation, and degradation [ 14].
Established mechanisms include selective expression and degradation of receptors and in particular a range of mechanisms to control the duration of the signal of activated regulatory Smads (Smad1/5/8, Smad2/3) through negative feedback mechanisms, including expression of inhibitor Smads (Smad6 and Smad7) and dephosphorylation and degradation of regulatory Smads [ 42].
To sustain and regulate the brain temperature, many mechanisms of biological brain cooling have been evolved, including Selective Brain Cooling (SBC), cooling through surface water evaporation, respiration, behavior response and using special anatomical appendages.
Finer scale change, including selective logging could not be mapped.
A number of fixed structures can create structural colours, by mechanisms including diffraction gratings, selective mirrors, photonic crystals, crystal fibres and deformed matrices.
In animals such as on the feathers of birds and the scales of butterflies, interference is created by a range of photonic mechanisms, including diffraction gratings, selective mirrors, photonic crystals, crystal fibres, matrices of nanochannels and proteins that can vary their configuration.
Mechanisms of action include selective thermolysis and specific cell stimulation while leaving normal tissue unaffected.
