The systems undergoing phase transitions (like spinodal decomposition) often exhibit scaling phenomena [ 1—4] that is, a morphological pattern of the domains at earlier times looks statistically similar to a pattern at later times apart from the global change of scale implied by the growth of L(f)—the domain size. Quantitatively it means, for example, that the correlation function of the order parameter (density, concentration, magnetization, etc.)... 

Fig. 4 Example trajectories of diffusive (left) and subdiffusive (right) gene carriers recorded with a temporal resolution of 33 ms. The subdiffusive trajectory is characterized by confined motion in the MSD plot. However, the hop diffusion pattern of the trajectory can only be detected by its morphological pattern and not by the shape of MSD plot.

Morphologic Patterns of YR-1 Strain in Different Carbon Sources... 

Strain YR-1 exhibited different morphologic patterns depending on the carbon source added to the sMMP culture medium. As can be seen in Fig. 1, the growth of YR-1 in glucose was typically the hyphae. However, in both hexadecane and petroleum the hyphae exhibited structures quite different from normal growth. In hexadecane, some segmented structures (Fig. IB) were present only in this carbon source. 

Morphological patterns of acute and chronic inflammation are seen during particular situations that arise in the body, such as when inflammation occurs on an epithelial surface, or when pyogenic bacteria (bacterial infections that make pus) are involved (see Table 14.4). 

In concordance with the morphological pattern associated with the liver condition, two further groups of diseases may be distinguished (s. tab. 4.1 ) ... 

There are various types of NSAID-induced rashes. The main morphological patterns are urticarial, maculo-papular, vesicular, and exfoliative. Skin reactions to NSAIDs are probably of phototoxic origin and can be associated with systemic hypersensitivity or other allergic reactions. More rarely, NSAIDs can exacerbate...

There are a variety of morphologic patterns to diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, and the immunophenotype is varied as well.222.224 following observations have... 

This tumor is the most common neuroendocrine neoplasm of the larynx and accounts for approximately 54% of all tumors.1 " It occurs most frequently in the supraglottic larynx and has a male predominance. Atypical carcinoids have an infiltrative growth and can have variety of morphologic patterns. The cells differ from those of a typical carcinoid in that they are larger and show nucleoli and occasional mitoses. Furthermore, they may exhibit necrosis and vascular or perineural... 

Given the multiple metabolic functions performed by the liver, it should not be surprising that the hepatotoxic effects of xenobiotics are so different several different morphological patterns of xenobiotic-induced hepatotoxicity can be observed (Plaa 1991 Batt and Ferrari 1995 Zimmerman 1999 Plaa and Charbonneau 2001 Kaplowitz 2002 Kaplowitz and DeLeve 2003 Lee 2003). For example, in acute toxicity, cell degeneration leads to necrosis (cell death), and this may or may not be accompanied by steatosis (an accumulation of lipids and fatty liver where hepatic lipid content is >5%). Necrosis may affect small groups of hepatocytes (i.e., focal... 

Interestingly, it has recently been observed that in a murine model of prostate cancer the inhibition of tumor growth by IL-12 gene therapy was associated with a morphological pattern of localized sheets of neoplastic apoptotic cells in close association with necrosis containing neutrophils [64], Depletion of neutrophils resulted in the loss of this pattern of apoptosis and reduced growth suppression. This indicates that rather than direct EC or tumor cell destruction neutrophils may indirectly support an apoptotic pathway [64]. 

Zia et al. [115] presented that nanostructure and morphological pattern of chitin/bentonite clay based polyurethane bionanocomposites. The clay dispersion within chitin was characterized by both XRD and optical microscopy (OM), which is the most frequently, used and approachable methods to study the structure of nanocomposites. There are one acetamide (-NHCOCH3) group at C-2 position and two (two hydroxy (-OH)) groups at C-3 (C3-OH) and C-6 (C6-OH) positions on chitin chains which can serve as the coordination and reaction sites [95], The crystalline structure of chitin has been reported by many researchers [96],... 

Microstructure of polyurethane networks based on oligomer mixtures. The morphological structure of cured MTI based on L-3003 and mixtures of oligomers of varied structure has been studied by electron microscopy. The morphological pattern is practically the same for a polymer surface formed in air and for bulk polymer, but it is expressed more clearly in the latter. Cured compositions based...
