this paper deals with the use of transferring (tf) system in legal medicine and forensic serology. biased upon the clear for mal genetics and excellent typing of tf phenotypes, in case of rare tf variants, favorable results are obtained in disputed paternity. in the present case of disputed paternity, the child and the father exhibits b2 c type while the mother shows the type cc. but the father...

This study investigated the performance of steers grazing rhizomatous birdsfoot trefoil (Lotus corniculatus L.) (RBFT) compared to nonrhizomatous birdsfoot trefoil (BFT) in pure stands or when interseeded with endophyte-free tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea Schreb.; TF). Five forage treatments of RBFT, BFT, TF, RBFT+TF, and BFT+TF (four replicate paddocks per treatment) were continuously stocke...

the effects of trigonella foenum graecum (tf) and foeniculum vulgare (fv) seeds powder on antimicro-bial activity and performance of broiler chickens were studied. based on a completely randomized design, 240 broiler chicks (ross 308) were assigned to 4 treatments and 4 replicates. the treatments were a basal diet (control, t 1), t 1 plus 0.5% tf (t 2), t 1 plus 0.5% fv (t 3) and tffv (0.25% tf...

We determined if sequence of ingestion affected use of endophyte-infected tall fescue (TF) when cattle also grazed birdsfoot trefoil (BFT) or alfalfa (ALF). Based on chemical characteristics of TF (alkaloids), BFT (tannins), and ALF (saponins), we hypothesized that cattle first allowed to graze ALF or BFT would subsequently spend more time grazing TF than cattle that first grazed TF followed by...

We consider the problems of designing a linear, time-varying filter with a specified " time-frequency (TF) pass region " and of constructing an orthonormal basis for the parsimonious expansion of signals located in a given TF support region. These problems of TF filtering and TF signal expunsion are reduced to the problem of designing a " TF subspace, " i.e., a linear signal space comprising al...

We employed a novel mouse line that expresses low levels of human tissue factor (TF) in the absence of murine TF to analyze the role of TF in gestation. Low-TF female mice had a 14-18% incidence of fatal postpartum uterine hemorrhage, suggesting that TF plays an important role in uterine hemostasis. Low-TF female mice mated with low-TF male mice had a 42% incidence of fatal midgestational hemor...

Transferrin receptor 1 (TfR) plays a critical role in cellular iron import for most higher organisms. Cell surface TfR binds to circulating iron-loaded transferrin (Fe-Tf) and transports it to acidic endosomes, where low pH promotes iron to dissociate from transferrin (Tf) in a TfR-assisted process. The iron-free form of Tf (apo-Tf) remains bound to TfR and is recycled to the cell surface, wher...

The main aim of this study was to test hypothetical associations between personality dimensions and empathy scores in medical students. The Portuguese version of NEO-FFI was administered in order to characterize participants in terms of five personality traits: Neuroticism, Extraversion, Agreeableness, Openness to Experience, and Conscientiousness. Self-reported empathy measures were obtained w...
