Natural born killers.
This year, 30 million acres of the corn, cotton, and potatoes planted in the United States will have been genetically engineered to produce an endotoxin normally found in the microbe Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt), a self-contained pesticide that will be toxic only to target insects. Transgenic pest-resistant crops are a cost-effective alternative to chemical pesticides, and may offer a way to hel...

Geographic profiling uses existing geocoded data to predict, solve and prevent crime. In this study, we examine probability distance strategies and a Bayesian approach used to predict the residential location of a serial offender. We compare different di...
متن کاملTumorigenicity and lysis by natural killers
Detailed analysis of the natural killer (NK) activity directed at nontumorigenic cell lines and their transformed tumorigenic derivatives has revealed a paradox. On the one hand, a correlation has been found between the tumorigenic potential of chemically transformed fibroblast cell lines and their sensitivity to NK cells in vitro. Nontransformed cells (N-type cell lines) and cells tumorigenic ...
