Test Tube Conception

Test-Tube Baby

A test-tube baby [4] is the product of a successful human reproduction that results from methods beyond sexual intercourse [5] between a man and a woman and instead utilizes medical intervention that manipulates both the egg [6] and sperm [7] cells for successful fertilization [8]. The term was originally used to refer to the babies born from the earliest applications of artificial insemination...

Cortactin in the Test Tube

stress fibers, do not contain cortactin. Despite the substantial size of the cortactin literature (currently the word “cortactin” appears in 339 articles), the most fundamental questions are still open. Thus, although cortactin has been implicated in the above-mentioned processes, its exact role is still not clearly defined. Its obvious participation in many of these fundamental events together...

Modified Sickledex tube test: a specific test for S hemoglobin.

Test tube systems with cutting/recombination operations.

We introduce test tube systems based on operations that are closely related to the splicing operation, i.e. we consider the operations of cutting a string at a specific site into two pieces with marking them at the cut ends and of recombining two strings with specifically marked endings. Whereas in the splicing of two strings these strings are cut at specific sites and the cut pieces are recomb...

Distributed-Automata and Simple Test Tube Systems

In classical Formal Language Theory, “centralised” grammar systems and automata were the standard models for computation devices. With the rapid growth of computer networks, distributed databases, etc, distributed computation has begun to play a major role in modern computer science. The theory of grammar systems and distributed-automata was thus developed as a model for distributed computation...
