in order to study the effect of different types and rates of animal manure and spent mushroom compost on controlling egyptian broomrape (orobanche aegyptiaca perss.) in tomato (mill. lycopersicon esculentum), two studies were conducted on randomized complete block design with three replications at research green house, college of agriculture, ferdowsi university of mashhad and nemooneh field of...

The nematode Caenorhabditis elegans utilizes gap junctions in different fashions in virtually all of its cells. This model animal has a surprisingly large number of innexin genes within its genome, and many nematode cell types can express multiple innexins at once, leading to the formation of diverse junction types and enough redundancy to limit the effect of single gene knockdowns on animal de...

The Human Fertilisation and Embryology Bill (HFE Bill) allows the creation of four different types of human-animal hybrid embryos. This page deals with the issues raised by cloned human-animal hybrid embryos (also known as cytoplasmic hybrids), which are the main focus of debate about hybrid embryos in the HFE Bill. In our view, although important, the issues raised by GM embryos, which are one...

The pharmacokinetics of grepafloxacin were determined in albino and pigmented rabbits following a single 10 mg/kg intravenous administration. The penetration of grepafloxacin into various ocular tissues was also determined after continuous intravenous infusion in both types of animal. Grepafloxacin showed a bicompartmental model of distribution in both pigmented and albino rabbits with signific...

We propose a semantically grounded theory of session types which relies on intersection and union types. We argue that intersection and union types are natural candidates for modeling branching points in session types and we show that the resulting theory overcomes some important defects of related behavioral theories. In particular, intersections and unions provide a native solution to the pro...

Animal models have played a critical role in elucidating the complex pathogenesis of traumatic brain injury, the major cause of death and disability in young adults in Western countries. This review discusses how different types of animal models are useful for the study of neuropathologic processes in traumatic, blunt, nonmissile head injury.

Animal-type melanoma is a rare variant of malignant melanoma in humans. Although many patients develop locoregional and distant metastases, mortality is lower than in other types of melanoma. We present 3 cases of animal-type melanoma in elderly men and include a description of common clinical and dermoscopic features (homogeneous blue pattern, irregular whitish structures, and irregular large ...

embryonic stem cells (escs) are undifferentiated cells which are typically derived from the inner cell mass of a blastocyst-stage embryo. in culture, these cells have the capacity to self-renew in an undifferentiated state but also may differentiate into cell types representing the three embryonic germ lineages, thus revealing their pluripotent potential. these cells could be of value for creat...

INTRODUCTION The presence of Livestock Associated MRSA (LA-MRSA) in humans is associated with intensity of animal contact. It is unknown whether the presence of LA-MRSA is a result of carriage or retention of MRSA-contaminated dust. We conducted a longitudinal study among 155 veal farmers in which repeated nasal and throat swabs were taken for MRSA detection. Periods with and without animal exp...
