Let G be a graph of order n and 3 ≤ t ≤ n4 be an integer. Recently, Kaneko and Yoshimoto provided a sharp δ(G) condition such that for any set X of t vertices, G contains a hamiltonian cycle H so that the distance along H between any two vertices of X is at least n/2t. In this paper, minimum degree and connectivity conditions are determined such that for any graph G of sufficiently large order ...

Let G be a graph and H be a subgraph of G. If G contains a hamiltonian cycle C such that E(C)∩E(H) is empty, we say that C is an H-avoiding hamiltonian cycle. Let F be any graph. If G contains an H-avoiding hamiltonian cycle for every subgraph H of G such that H ∼= F , then we say that G is F -avoiding hamiltonian. In this paper, we give minimum degree and degree-sum conditions which ensure tha...

Pineal glands and the neurosensory portion of the retinae of adult male rats adapted to a 24-h cycle with lights on from 06.00 to 20.00 h were collected at 9 timepoints during the cycle. Significant rhythms in both pineal and retinal hexosaminidase, beta-glucuronidase, acid phosphatase and beta-glucosidase were observed. For each enzyme, pineals had greater overall activity per unit amount of p...

Objective(s):Lutetium-177 can be made with high specific activity and with no other isotopes of lutetium present, referred to as “No Carrier Added” (NCA) 177Lu. We have radiolabelled DOTA-conjugated peptide DOTA‐(Tyr3)‐octreotate with NCA 177Lu (“NCA-LuTATE”) and used it in nearly 40 therapeutic administrations for subjects with neuroendocrine tumours or meningiomas. In this paper, we report on...

Background: Cancer is one of the major health problems worldwide and natural resources are being explored to develop anticancer drugs with fewer side effects. Iranian propolis contains components including flavonoids and polyphenols and has various medicinal properties. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of Ethanolic Extract of Sirch Propolis (EESP) on three br...

UNLABELLED Hydrogen gas (H(2)) is a possible future transportation fuel that can be produced by anoxygenic phototrophic bacteria via nitrogenase. The electrons for H(2) are usually derived from organic compounds. Thus, one would expect more H(2) to be produced when anoxygenic phototrophs are supplied with increasingly reduced (electron-rich) organic compounds. However, the H(2) yield does not a...
