A set of type (m, n) K is a set of points of a finite linear space with the property that each line of the linear space meets K in either m or n points. In this paper, sets of type (m,n) in finite linear spaces with constant point degree are studied, and some characterization results are given.

font-independent character descriptions are important for a systematic approach to automated and semi-automated font design. This is particularly so for large character sets such as Kanji. The paper defines a completely coordinate-independent notation for Kanji, which contains all the necessary information to produce legible character sketches.

  Objective(s): Adeno-associated virus type 2 (AAV2) vectors are widely used for both experimental and clinical gene therapy. A recent research has shown that the performance of these vectors can be greatly improved by substitution of specific surface-exposed tyrosine residues with phenylalanines. In this study, a fast and simple method is presented to generate AAV2 vector helper plasmids encod...

Background: Cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) is a serious public health problem in many tropical countries. The infection is caused by a protozoan parasite of Leishmania genus transmitted by Phlebotominae sandflies. In the present study, we constructed a eukaryotic expression vector to produce a fusion protein containing LmSTI1 from Leishmania major (L. major) and PpSP42 from Phlebotomus papatasi (...

Probiotics and antibiotics are widely used in poultry and may alter drug bioavailability by affecting the expression of intestinal ATP-binding cassette (ABC) efflux transporters. Therefore the aim of the present investigation was to evaluate the effect of Lactobacilli probiotics, administered alone or in combination with doxycycline, on the expression of ABCB1 (gene, encoding P-glycoprotein), A...
