Although search over World Wide Web pages has recently received much academic and commercial attention, surprisingly little research has been done on how to search the web pages within large, diverse intranets. Intranets contain the information associated with the internal workings of an organization. A standard search engine retrieves web pages that fall within a widely diverse range of inform...

Continuous oral administration of sodium cyclamate(CHS-Na) to guinea pig caused the gradual increase of urinary excretion of cyclohexylamine(CHA) after a certain period. The amount of CHA excreted was not only different in individuals, but also dependent on each experiment. It was diminished when CHS-Na was administered orally with antibiotics or intraperitoneally. It was shown from the incubat...

In this study, carbonated hydroxyapatite (CHA) nanorods were prepared by a novel hydrothermal method. The crystallinity and chemical structure of synthesized CHA nanorods was characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), respectively. Carmine was selected as representative organic dyes to study th...

The occurrence of p1,n1 salts can be exploited to sequester racemates; an application to technical mixtures of chrysanthemic acids (ChA) allowed the separation of trans- and cis-ChA and the recovery of the excess enantiomer of trans-ChA.

chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (copd) has been defined by the global initiative for chronic obstructive lung disease (gold), as a disease state characterized by airflow limitation which is not fully reversible. copd consists of emphysema which is the destruction and inflammation of the lung alveoli. adenosine deaminase (ada, e.c.3.5.4.4) converts adenosine to inosine. there are two isoen...

The induction of wheat male fertile lines by using the chemical hybridizing agent SQ-1 (CHA-SQ-1) is an effective approach in the utilization of heterosis; however, the molecular basis of male fertility remains unknown. Wheat flag leaves are the initial receptors of CHA-SQ-1 and their membrane structure plays a vital role in response to CHA-SQ-1 stress. To investigate the response of wheat flag...

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow stromal stem cells (BMSCs) on bone formation in a novel interconnected porous calcium hydroxyapatite (IP-CHA). BMSCs/IP-CHA composites, as a cell-hybrid artificial bone, were made by injecting BMSCs solution into IP-CHA scaffolds. To induce osteogenic differentiation, BMSCs/IP-CHA composites were s...

Several studies have validated successful mandibular reconstruction with prefabricated tissue-engineered bone flaps and recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (rhBMP-2) implanted in situ. Whether rhBMP-2 applied with the prefabrication technique enables faster ossification of mandibular defects than rhBMP-2 applied in situ is unknown. We aimed to compare mandibular reconstruction with p...
