Integration des expatries dans leur nouveau poste : une analyse contingente et quantitative
(Presses HEC, 1997)L’expatriation est une forme particulière de transfert (Feldman et Thompson, 1992; Carter, 1989). Plusieurs études (Hall, 1990; d’Iribarne, 1989) montrent que les différences inter-culturelles peuvent avoir des implications ... -
DNA damage induced by micellar-delivered doxorubicin and ultrasound: comet assay study
(Elsevier, 2000)To minimize adverse side effects of chemotherapy, we have developed a micellar drug carrier that retains hydrophobic drugs, and then releases the drug by ultrasonic stimulation. This study investigated the DNA damage induced ... -
Factors affecting acoustically triggered release of drugs from polymeric micelles
(Elsevier, 2000)A custom ultrasonic exposure chamber with real-time fluorescence detection was used to measure acoustically-triggered drug release from Pluronic P-105 micelles under continuous wave (CW) or pulsed ultrasound in the frequency ... -
Stabilization of Pluronic P-105 Micelles with an Interpenetrating Network of N,N-Diethylacrylamide
(American Chemical Society, 2000)N,N-Diethylacrylamide (NNDEA) was polymerized in the presence of Pluronic P-105 micelles. The polymerizations resulted in an interpenetrating network of poly(NNDEA) and P-105 that stabilized the micelles at concentrations ... -
Helping students take control of their learning through the use of focused weekly review sheets
(TESOLANZ, 2001)This paper reports on work done with students enrolled in a Level 4 Certificate of Attainment in English (CAEL) class at the University of Waikato Language Institute in Auckland. The original purpose was to help raise the ... -
Kinetics of ultrasonic release of doxorubicin from pluronic P105 micelles
(Elsevier, 2001)The aim of this research was to measure and model the kinetics of acoustic release and subsequent re-encapsulation of Doxorubicin (DOX) from Pluronic P105 micelles. A fluorescence detection ultrasound exposure chamber was ... -
Intracellular uptake of Pluronic copolymer: effects of the aggregation state
(Elsevier, 2002)The effect of the Pluronic P-105 aggregation state on its uptake by HL-60 cells was studied by flow cytometry, fluorescence spectroscopy, and confocal and fluorescence microscopy using a fluorescently labeled Pluronic P105. ... -
Ultrasonic release of doxorubicin from Pluronic P105 micelles stabilized with an interpenetrating network of N,N diethylacrylamide
(Elsevier, 2002)Pluronic P105 micelles sequester hydrophobic drugs and release them upon insonation with low frequency ultrasound; however these micelles dissolve relatively quickly upon dilution. The objective of this research was to ... -
Investigating the mechanism of acoustically activated uptake of drugs from Pluronic micelles
(BioMed Central (BMC), 2002)Background: This paper examines the mechanism of ultrasonic enhanced drug delivery from Pluronic micelles. In previous publications by our group, fluorescently labeled Pluronic was shown to penetrate HL-60 cells with and ... -
Photochemical Lithography: Creation of Patterned, Acid Chloride Functionalized Surfaces Using UV Light and Gas-Phase Oxalyl Chloride

Alkyl Monolayers on Silica Surfaces Prepared Using Neat, Heated Dimethylmonochlorosilanes with Low Vapor Pressures
(American Chemical Society, 2003) -
Self-aligned mechanical attachment of carbon nanotubes to silicon dioxide structures by selective silicon dioxide chemical-vapor deposition
(American Institute of Physics (AIP), 2003)A self-aligned thin-film deposition technique was developed to mechanically attach carbon nanotubes to surfaces for the fabrication of structurally robust nanotube-based nanomechanical devices. Single-walled carbon nanotubes ... -
L'adaptabilité du cadre expatrié : Revue critique de littérature, proposition et test d'une échelle de mesure améliorée
(Administrative Science Association of Canada (ASAC), 2004)L'adaptabilité des expatriés a une incidence déterminante sur le succès de leur mission. Pourtant, en raison des difficultés liées à sa mesure, cet antécédent ne reçoit pas toujours l’attention qui lui est due. L’objectif ... -
Rapid and convenient method for preparing masters for microcontact printing with 1–12 mm features
(American Institute of Physics (AIP), 2004)Mechanical scribing can be employed to create surfaces with recessed features. Through replica molding elastomeric copies of these scribed surfaces are created that function as stamps for microcontact printing. It is shown ... -
Next Generation 10 Gb/s RZ Optical Transmitters
(2004-05)We propose an alternate chirp RZ optical transmitter that provides telecommunication carriers with a cost effective solution for upgrading the existing 2.5 Gb/s fiber links to 10 Gb/s. The performance of the proposed ... -

Cross Cultural Translation through Nawal El Saadawi's Works
(2005)This thesis is an attempt to shed light on issues related to cross cultural translation through the books of Nawal El Saadawi, the famous rebellious Egyptian writer. The main aim of the thesis is to answer the question ... -
Climbing Grammar Mountain: An Interactive Learning Experience
(United States Department of State, 2005)This article describes a grammar game that is an enjoyable way for students to correct sentences. In Climbing Grammar Mountain, best suited for secondary and university students, learners compete in teams to "climb" a game ...
