l. A diabetogenic protein isolated from bovine adenohypophysis which had previously been demonstrated to cause fasting hyperglycemia and decreased glucose tolerance in dogs and man is highly antigenic when injected into rabbits. 2. Immunoelectrophoresis and gel double diffusion studies did not provide evidence of multiple antibodies or antigens in the bovine diabetogenic protein: anti-bovine di...

A major challenge for biogeographers and conservation planners is to identify where to best locate or distribute high-priority areas for conservation and to explore whether these areas are well represented by conservation actions such as protected areas (PAs). We aimed to identify high-priority areas for conservation, expressed as hotpots of rarity-weighted richness (HRR)-sites that efficiently...

We use a large single particle tracking data set to analyze the short time and small spatial scale motion of quantum dots labeling proteins in cell membranes. Our analysis focuses on the jumps which are the changes in the position of the quantum dots between frames in a movie of their motion. Previously we have shown that the directions of the jumps are uniformly distributed and the jump length...

Our objective was to characterize 46 unique, erythromycin-sensitive, and clindamycin-resistant Streptococcus agalactiae strains from S. Korea that displayed a novel phenotype in double-disk diffusion assay. We used polymerase chain reaction to determine presence of erythromycin and clindamycin resistance genes, disc diffusion assays to determine resistance phenotype, and microbroth dilution to ...

let  be a banach algebra. let  be linear mappings on . first we demonstrate a theorem concerning the continuity of double derivations; especially that all of -double derivations are continuous on semi-simple banach algebras, in certain case. afterwards we define a new vocabulary called “-higher double derivation” and present a relation between this subject and derivations and finally give some ...

The temperature dependence of permeation across human red cell membranes has been determined for a series of hydrophilic and lipophilic solutes, including urea and two methyl substituted derivatives, all the straight-chain amides from formamide through valeramide and the two isomers, isobutyramide and isovaleramide. The temperature coefficient for permeation by all the hydrophilic solutes is 12...
