Three genetically hybrid F1 progenies produced between a clinical isolate of Arthroderma simii (KMU4810) and a tester strain of A. vanbreuseghemii (RV27961) were crossed with two tester strains of A. vanbreuseghemii (RV27961 and RV27960) and a tester strain of A. benhamiae (RV30001), respectively. Three crossings yielded hybrid second progenies. Another interspecies crossing between A. simii (K...

A novel test vector compressioddecompression technique is proposed for reducing the amount of test data that must be stored on a tester and transferred to each core when testing a core-based design. A small amount of on-chip circuitry is used to reduce both the test storage and test time required for testing a core-based design. The fully specified test vectors provided by the core vendor are s...

Maintaining deciduous teeth in function until their natural exfoliation is absolutely necessary. Vital pulp therapy (VPT) is a way of saving deciduous teeth. The most important factors in success of VPT are the early diagnosis of pulp and periradicular status, preservation of the pulp vitality and proper vascularization of the pulp. Development of new biomaterials with suitable biocompatibility...

The tilt-adaptation aftereffect (TAE) is the phenomenon that prolonged perception of a tilted 'adapter' stimulus affects the perceived tilt of a subsequent 'tester' stimulus. Although it is clear that TAE is strongest when adapter and tester are presented at the same location, the reference frame of the effect is debated. Some authors have reported that TAE is spatiotopic (world centred): It oc...

We describe a procedure for genomic difference cloning, a method for isolating sequences present in one genomic DNA population ("tester") that is absent in another ("driver"). By subtractive hybridization, a large excess of driver is used to remove sequences common to a biotinylated tester, enriching the "target" sequences that are unique to the tester. After repeated subtractive hybridization ...

A new hybrid BIST scheme is proposed which is based on using an “incrementally guided LFSR.” It very efficiently combines external deterministic data from the tester with on-chip pseudo-random BIST. The hardware overhead is very small as a conventional STUMPS architecture [1] is used with only a small modification to the feedback of the LFSR which allows the tester to incrementally guide the LF...
