Perplexing peroxisome proliferators.

Soft agarose culture human tumour colony forming assay for drug sensitivity testing: [3H]-Thymidine incorporation vs colony counting Summary In vitro drug sensitivity testing, both by optical colony counting and by a [3H]-TdR incorporation assay, was performed on human tumour cells proliferating in soft agar cultures. Cells from two different human tumour cell lines, 5 different human tumour xe...

Car Use Behavioral Study for Commuting Trips: Parents’ Work Trips and Children’s School Trips

Negative consequences of car use along with deficiencies for investment in environmental friendly modes, have driven authorities to search for soft measure in order to encourage people for modal shift. The main objective of this study is to propose a model which describes car use behavior on parents’ work trips and how this relates to mode choice regarding their children’s school trips. A quest...

Magnetic Dips in Prominences

Magnetic dips are generally assumed to be basic equilibrium con-gurations in quiescent solar prominences. Here we discuss two types of the magnetic dips which were considered in the literature: (1) dips resulting from a force-free magnetic equilibrium in the corona, and (2) magnetic dips which are formed in situations where the Lorentz force balances the weight of the prominence plasma. An impo...
