REMA can be used as a rapid and inexpensive method for mycobacterial drug susceptibility testing against ethambutol. In comparison with the agar method, the MICs determined by REMA can more accurately be correlated with achievable plasma concentrations of antimycobacterial agents.
Abstract:A Gaussian laser pulse propagating through plasma in the presence of a magnetic wiggler produces thirdharmonic radiation. The wiggler's magnetic field provides additional momentum required for phase matching. The required wiggler wave number is sensitive to pulse duration and amplitude. The efficiency of the process is significant at the instant at which the phase matching condition is satisfied.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
