250 years of ingineer studies in Prague

250 million years of bindin evolution.

Bindin plays a central role in sperm-egg attachment and fusion in sea urchins (echinoids). Previous studies determined the DNA sequence of bindin in two orders of the class Echinoidea, representing 10% of all echinoid species. We report sequences of mature bindin from five additional genera, representing four new orders, including the distantly related sand dollars, heart urchins, and pencil ur...

250 years of military dermatology: the British Army experience.

The British Army has encountered significant morbidity due to skin disease from the eighteenth century to the present time. The young age and pre-deployment screening of soldiers coupled with adverse environmental conditions produce a predominance of infective and eczematous conditions. The dermatologist still has a significant contribution to make in keeping the individual soldier healthy.

[Frontiers in Bioscience E2, 250-257, January 1, 2010] 250 of methods for statistical analysis of combination studies

This paper is concerned with the statistical analysis of data obtained in studies of the joint action of drugs. The three methods that are compared are illustrated on real data (1), using the statistical package SAS. It is argued that while the results obtained using these methods do not differ substantially, the method allowing for estimating simultaneously all required parameters is to be pre...

postnatal studies of bats (pipistrellus kuhlii and miniopterus schreibersii) & histomorphology and histochemistry studies of organs and diseases of (neurergus microspilotus and n. kaiseri)

1. to determine whether difference in birth body mass influenced growth performance in pipistrellus kuhlii we studied a total of 12 captive-born neonates. bats were assigned to two body mass groups: light birth body mass (lbw: 0.89 ± 0.05, n=8) and heavy birth body mass (hbw: 1.35 ± 0.08, n=4). heavier body mass at birth was associated with rapid postnatal growth (body mass and forearm length) ...
