Chapter IV. Radiation Protection Measurements

Chapter IV

The addition of recombinant IL-12p75 (rIL-12p75) to naïve T cells promotes their differentiation toward a TH I-type cytokine patten by inducing IFN-y production. Therefore, it has been postulated that during the cognate interaction and formation of the immunological synapse between antigen-bearing DC and antigen-specific T cells, secretion of IFN-y and IL-12p75 would positively regulate each ot...

A Combined Retail Evolution model was developed for this study in fulfillment of Objectives 1 and 2. The Combined Retail Evolution model was developed from previous retail evolution theories (i.e., the conceptual and empirical literature reviewed in Chapter II), which provided detailed information about retail change and fragmented information about consumer change. No single retail evolution t...

Chapter Iv

Quorum sensing is a mechanism of interbacterial communication that has been shown to be involved in the regulation of several complex phenotypes and virulence in some pathogenic bacteria. In this chapter, the characterization of the luxS gene of H. somni as well as biofilm formation by different strains of H. somni are described. Based on the ability of the luxS gene from H. somni to complement...

Chapter 2 Channel Measurements

Radio channel measurements and channel modeling have always been a driving force of the wireless COST actions. These high spirits have been kept up also in COST 2100, where significant advances, particularly in channel measurements, have been made. Channel measurements are indispensable for wireless system design. It is the wireless channel that determines the ultimate performance limits of any...
