The photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a therapeutic modality that depends mostly on photosensitizer (PS), light and molecular oxygen species. However, there are still technical limitations in clinical PDT that are under constant ...

Infrared thermal cameras can be used to detect early-stage thermal anomalies in electrical or mechanical equipment and structures, before they lead to the interruption of their operation. In this work, we present a system ...

The objectives of this study were to monitor the thermal environment of different hatchery locations during the transfer of fertile eggs from the setter and to the hatcher, to measure egg heat loss, and to determine its ...

The microenvironment around the fertile egg on incubation process can influence the development of the embryo and reflect on the hatching rate in the post-hatching performance, and also the quality of the hatched chicks. ...

Specular surfaces as glass, mirrors and metals are commonly used in solar devices and in building facades. Determining the temperature distribution of such kind of surfaces allows estimating their thermal losses and detecting ...

In production systems the characterization of genetic resources in relation to their capacity to respond to environmental conditions is necessary. The objective of this study was to evaluate the use of infrared thermography ...
