Next, the response functions of Hg0.6Mg0.4Te and Cd0.9Zn0.1Te under electromagnetic irradiation with 0.05 Me V, 0.2 MeV, 0.661 MeV and 1.33 MeV energies are simulated by using the MCNP code. According to these simulations, the Hg0.6Mg0.4Te ternary compound is suggested as a good semiconductor photodetector for use at room temperature.展开更多

To address this issue, two repair methods are often used. Biological agents are used to block nerve sutures and the surrounding tissue to achieve phys- ical anti-adhesion effects. Another agent is glucocorticosteroid, which can prevent scar growth by inhibiting inflammation. However, the overall effect of promoting regeneration of the injured nerve is not satisfactory. In this regard, we envision that these two methods can be combined and lead to shared understanding for achieving improved nerve repair. In this study, the right tibial nerve was transected 1 cm above the knee to establish a rat tibial nerve injury model. The incision was directly sutured after nerve transection. The anastomotic stoma was coated with 0.5 × 0.5 cm^2 chitosan sheets with betamethasone dipropionate. At 12 weeks after injury, compared with the con- trol and poly （D, L-lactic acid） groups, chitosan-betamethasone dipropionate film slowly degraded with the shape of the membrane still intact. Further, scar hyperplasia and the degree of adhesion at anastomotic stoma were obviously reduced, while the regenerated nerve fiber structure was complete and arranged in a good order in model rats. Electrophysiological study showed enhanced compound muscle action potential. Our results confirm that chitosan-betamethasone dipropionate film can effectively prevent local scar hyperplasia after tibial nerve repair and promote nerve regeneration.展开更多
