Specific absorption rate (SAR) value is dependent on permittivity value. However, variability in the published permittivity values for human and animal tissue and the development of sophisticated 3-dimensional digital anatomical models to predict SAR values has resulted in the need to understand how model parameters (permittivity value) affect the predicted whole body and localized SAR values. In this paper, we establish the partial derivative of whole body SARs and localized SAR values (defined as SAR for individual organs with respect to a change in the permittivity values of all tissue types, as well as for those tissues with the most variable permittivity values. Variations in the published permittivity values may substantially influence whole body and localized SAR values, but only under special conditions. Orientation of the exposed object to the incident electromagnetic wave is one of the most crucial factors. Published 2001 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

Metal-organic framework (MOF) derived porous FeO/C powders were applied for absorption of microwaves in the frequency range of 1-18 GHz. The effects of the polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) additive on the synthesis of MIL101-(Fe) precursor were studied by various characterization methods. By adding PVP, the impure hematite phase (α-FeO) with magnetite phase (FeO) was disappeared and the particular morphology was transformed to the porous rod-like, leading to the increase of specific surface area from 150 to 282 m/g.

Voltage-dependent anion channel (VDAC) is the primary conduit for regulated passage of ions and metabolites into and out of a mitochondrion. Calculating the solvation free energy for VDAC is crucial for understanding its stability, function, and interactions within the cellular environment. In this article, numerical schemes for computing the total solvation free energy for VDAC-comprising electrostatic, ideal gas, and excess free energies plus the nonpolar energy-are developed based on a nonuniform size modified Poisson-Boltzmann ion channel (nuSMPBIC) finite element solver along with tetrahedral meshes for VDAC proteins.
