LXII. A mica Echelon grating

Lxii. the Determination of Vitamin D

THE stability of preparations of vitamin D is of importance, both for the commercial products now on the market, and especially for the standard solutions which are widely used in estimations of the activity of other preparations. At present the International Standard adopted at the London Conference in 1931 consists of a solution of irradiated ergosterol in olive oil, and although this is like...

Echelon analysis

Echelon Form

In this work we present the formalization of an algorithm to compute the Echelon Form of a matrix. We have proved its existence over Bezout domains and we have made it executable over Euclidean domains, such as Z and K[x]. This allows us to compute determinants, inverses and characteristic polynomials of matrices. The work is based on the HOL-Multivariate Analysis library, and on both the Gauss...

Soluble MICA and a MICA Variation as Possible Prognostic Biomarkers for HBV-Induced Hepatocellular Carcinoma

MHC class I polypeptide-related chain A (MICA) molecule is induced in response to viral infection and various types of stress. We recently reported that a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs2596542 located in the MICA promoter region was significantly associated with the risk for hepatitis C virus (HCV)-induced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and also with serum levels of soluble MICA (sMICA...
