Article Synopsis
- The study focuses on creating and testing 3D printed dosimetry phantoms for brain cancer radiation therapy at the Australian synchrotron, using various materials like Polylactic acid (PLA+) and tricalcium phosphate.
- Different phantoms, including slab, preclinical rat, and anthropomorphic head models, were evaluated for their accuracy and effectiveness in measuring radiation doses.
- Results showed that PLA+ phantoms closely match water and bone equivalents in terms of radiation attenuation, making them reliable tools for quality assurance in synchrotron dosimetry.
The main problems with Bacillus thuringiensis products for pest control are their often narrow activity spectrum, high sensitivity to UV degradation, and low cost effectiveness (high potency required). We constructed a sporulation-deficient SigK(-) B. thuringiensis strain that expressed a chimeric cry1C/Ab gene, the product of which had high activity against various lepidopteran pests, including Spodoptera littoralis (Egyptian cotton leaf worm) and Spodoptera exigua (lesser [beet] armyworm), which are not readily controlled by other Cry delta-endotoxins.
