B3 is a murine monoclonal antibody (mAb) that recognizes a LewisY carbohydrate antigen present on the surface of many carcinomas. An imaging and Phase I trial was performed to study the ability of 111In-mAb B3 to image known metastasis and determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD), dose-limiting toxicity (DLT), kinetics, and biodistribution of 90Y-mAb B3. Patients (n = 26) with advanced epithe...

This study was conducted in 2020 to investigate the influence of melatonin (10, 50 and 100 µM) given three methods (immersion, irrigation, foliar spraying) on some physiological aspects tomato seedlings inoculated with root-knot nematode Meloidogyne incognita [(Kofoid White) Chitwood]. The were 1000 second-stage juveniles M. incognita. Dualex® optic sensor used situ measure total chlorophylls, ...

In spite of ragwort flea beetle (RFB) being present on a Dannevirke dairy farm, pastures were sprayed each winter to reduce ragwort density and limit the risk of ragwort poisoning of stock. The trial on this farm from June 1999 – October 2001, aimed to determine whether herbicide (H) impacted on RFB and how H and RFB each impacted on ragwort growth and persistence. RFBfree areas were created by...

SALTIRSOIL (SALTs in IRrigated SOILs) is a model for the medium to long term simulation of soil salinity in irrigated, well-drained lands. Once the algorithms were verified, the objective of our study was to validate SALTIRSOIL under one of several water quality and management scenarios in Mediterranean agriculture. Because drip and surface are the most common irrigation systems in irrigated ag...

Leaching of glyphosate and AMPA as affected by the time elapsed between spraying first leaching event was studied on large-scale lysimeters in a two-year study. The events were induced irrigation interventions able to deliver 336 L, equivalent rainfall 40 mm. Four groups three randomly selected 12 available. They irrigated either one day after herbicide treatment (1 DAT), 7 DAT, 14 DAT or 28 DA...

Background—Coxsackievirus B3 infection is an excellent model of human myocarditis and dilated cardiomyopathy. Cardiac injury is caused either by a direct cytopathic effect of the virus or through immune-mediated mechanisms. Regulatory T cells (Tregs) play an important role in the negative modulation of host immune responses and set the threshold of autoimmune activation. This study was designed...

The experimental study is done for technological parameters of high-melting metal arc spraying to study the influence of spraying current, spraying voltage and wire feed voltage on spraying arc and the influence of spraying current on coating temperature and analyze theoretically the distribution rules of spray gun jet speed field and temperature field and their influencing factors. The results...

In write-once memory (e.g., Flash), a cell’s level can only be raised, and erasure is only in bulk. The total number of erasures (endurance) is limited, and drops sharply with technology shrinkage and with cell-capacity increase. The normalized write capacity (ratio of total amount of data that can be written to storage capacity) drops similarly. Various coding schemes enable overwrites at the ...

With the rise of portal sites for image-file download of musical scores, the electronic distribution of musical scores, an activity in progress of 15 years, has attracted increased attention. We describe several data models for score distribution and emphasize the one used in the MuseData archive of musical data (1984–). This archive (containing substantial quantities of the music of Bach, Hand...
