<p style='text-indent:20px;'>In this paper we study multiple ergodic averages for "good" variable polynomials. In particular, under an additional assumption, show that these converge to the expected limit, making progress related open problem posted by Frantzikinakis ([<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b13">13</xref>,Problem 10]). These general convergence results imply several exten...

We describe the isolation by reversed-phase h.p.l.c. of a number of products of the degradation of insulin by insulin proteinase and their direct analysis by fast atom bombardment mass spectrometry (f.a.b.-m.s.). Various semisynthetically labelled insulins were used, including [[2H2]GlyA1]insulin and [18O]LysB29]insulin. The results obtained confirm and extend the results obtained by non-mass-s...

A 3,167-bp PstI fragment of genomic DNA from Pseudomonas sp. strain B13 was cloned and sequenced. The gene clcE consists of 1,059 nucleotides encoding a protein of 352 amino acids with a calculated mass of 37,769 Da which showed maleylacetate reductase activity. The protein had significant sequence similarities with the polypeptides encoded by tcbF of pP51 (59.4% identical positions), tfdF of p...

A major issue in the management of breast cancer is to identify patients who are less likely to be cured after primary treatment and would benefit from adjuvant chemotherapy. Of great importance is also identification of patients with only local disease who traditionally would be given chemotherapy but would survive without. In this thesis we have validated the utility of the two-gene ratio HOX...

The 2016 CLEF eHealth Task 3 aims to evaluation the effectiveness of information retrieval systems when searching for health content on the web. The ClueWeb12 B13 data set is utilized in this task. This paper presents our work on the 2016 CLEF eHealth Task 3. We propose a Web-based query expansion method and a combination method to better understand and satisfy the task. In particular, we test ...
