HERBERT WEINFELD , and AVERY

Using the cultured Chinese hamster cell line Don, G1 or S or a mixture of late-S/G2 cells were prepared by release from metaphase arrest. Metaphase (M) cells were also obtained by mitotic arrest of log-phase cultures with Coicemid and held in metaphase; such M cells remained untreated with any other compound and were termed standard M cells. When interphase (I) cells were fused at pH 8.0 and 37...

MathML formatting with TEX rules , TEX fonts , and TEX quality ∗

In this paper we investigate the architecture of a MathML formatting engine based on an abstraction of the TEX box primitives. This engine is carefully designed so that the TEX-dependent formatting rules are isolated from the independent ones and is capable of achieving TEX-comparable output quality when used in conjunction with TEX fonts. We show how the formatting rules presented in Appendix ...
