In Figure 12, we model the heat sinking effects of a gate dielectric and top gate on a hot ribbon.
In addition, nanoparticles (NPs) with high affinity for the circulating amyloid-β (Aβ) forms may induce "sink effect" and improve the AD condition.
Forest edge density seems to control the extent of the interface with the agricultural sources and thus promotes the "sink" effect of forests on nutrients.
The aim of this study was to design nanocarriers able to: (i) interact with the Aβ1-42 in the blood and promote its elimination through the "sink effect" and (ii) correct the memory defect observed in AD-like transgenic mice.
Moreover, it has been reported that the concentrations of Aβ in brain and blood are in equilibrium, through the blood-brain-barrier (BBB), and that peripheral sequestration of Aβ may shift this equilibrium toward the blood, eventually drawing out the excess from the brain ("sink" effect) [ 27].
11, 19 However, large or central hilar tumors are more difficult to ablate completely due to heat-sink effect from high blood flow at the renal hilum and increased risk of complications from the collecting system; mainly benign post-ablation strictures and urinoma formation.
Two SPME sampling methods were developed to study nine VOCs, both in indoor air and at the material/air interface [4, 5] for highlighting and quantifying emission or sink effects, and then identifying and ranking material sources.
Mechanisms controlling grain methionine concentration can be divided into source and sink effects.
We did not characterize enough genes to draw general conclusions about relative importance of source and sink effects.
Analysis of other tissues would also be helpful in assigning relative importance to source and sink effects.
Blood flow in nearby blood vessels can create a heat sink effect, caused by dissipation of heat from the ablation zone resulting in less effective cell necrosis.
