ReagentIn chemistry, a reagent (riˈeɪdʒənt ) or analytical reagent is a substance or compound added to a system to cause a chemical reaction, or test if one occurs. The terms reactant and reagent are often used interchangeably, but reactant specifies a substance consumed in the course of a chemical reaction. Solvents, though involved in the reaction mechanism, are usually not called reactants. Similarly, catalysts are not consumed by the reaction, so they are not reactants.
Experimental cancer treatmentExperimental cancer treatments are mainstream medical therapies intended to treat cancer by improving on, supplementing or replacing conventional methods (surgery, chemotherapy, radiation, and immunotherapy). However, researchers are still trying to determine whether these treatments are safe and effective treatments. Experimental cancer treatments are normally available only to people who participate in formal research programs, which are called clinical trials.
Measuring network throughputThroughput of a network can be measured using various tools available on different platforms. This page explains the theory behind what these tools set out to measure and the issues regarding these measurements. Reasons for measuring throughput in networks. People are often concerned about measuring the maximum data throughput in bits per second of a communications link or network access. A typical method of performing a measurement is to transfer a 'large' file from one system to another system and measure the time required to complete the transfer or copy of the file.
Cellule souche pluripotente induiteLes cellules souches pluripotentes induites (CSPi) (en anglais Induced pluripotent stem cells soit iPS ou iPSCs) sont des cellules souches pluripotentes générées en laboratoire à partir de cellules somatiques. Ces cellules souches induites ont le potentiel de se différencier en n'importe quelle cellule du corps humain et ont donc des applications très variées en thérapie et en recherche biomédicale.
