The aim of the present paper was to characterize the static and dynamic mechanical properties of carbon braids used in medicine as prostheses of ligaments and tendons. A computing system (PC software) was used to register and analyze the data of mechanical tests. Tensile static tests (creep testing)

The test method introduced here enables the fatigue test of a brittle material at a stress level that is as high as its ultimate fracture strength. The procedural design of the test eliminates uncertainties that often make interpretation of the results difficult. The results, using a statistical ana
## Abstract Thalidomide is an oral drug marketed in the 1950s as a sedative and an antiβemetic during pregnancy that was removed from the market when its teratogenic side effects appeared in new born children due to inadequate tests to assess the drug's safety. Recent studies evaluating the use of
## Abstract The electrochemical redox behavior of omeprazole (OMZ), a gastric acid pump inhibitor, was investigated at a glassy carbon electrode using cyclic, differential pulse and squareβwave voltammetry over a wide pH range. The pHβdependent oxidation occurs in two irreversible consecutive charg
