We consider the high-energy limits of the colour ordered four-, fiveand sixgluon MHV amplitudes of the maximally supersymmetric QCD in the multi-Regge kinematics where all the gluons are strongly ordered in rapidity. We show that various building blocks occurring in the Regge factorisation (the Regge trajectory, the coefficient functions and the Lipatov vertex) satisfy an iterative structure ve...

MOTIVATION The analysis of large biological datasets often requires complex processing pipelines that run for a long time on large computational infrastructures. We designed and implemented a simple script-like programming language with a clean and minimalist syntax to develop and manage pipeline execution and provide robustness to various types of software and hardware failures as well as port...

Autophagy dysregulation has been implicated in numerous diseases and many therapeutic agents are known to modulate this pathway. Therefore, the ability to accurately monitor autophagy is critical to understanding its role in the pathogenesis and treatment of many diseases. Recently an imaging flow cytometry method measuring colocalization of microtubule associated protein 1B light chain 3 (LC3)...

Anecdotal and scientific evidence suggests that Cannabis use may be beneficial in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients. Here, we have investigated the effect of a standardized Cannabis sativa extract with high content of cannabidiol (CBD), here named CBD BDS for "CBD botanical drug substance," on mucosal inflammation and hypermotility in mouse models of intestinal inflammation. Colitis was...

The main goal of this work was the production and characterization of a novel invertase activity from Zygosaccharomyces bailii strain Talf1 for further application to biodesulfurization (BDS) in order to expand the exploitable alternative carbon sources to renewable sucrose-rich feedstock. The maximum invertase activity (163 U ml(-1)) was achieved after 7 days of Z. bailii strain Talf1 cultivat...

There is no uniform consensus on the utility of routine intraoperative cholangiography (IOC) during laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC). We present herein a ten-year retrospective audit of our cases of LC without IOC, performed by search of readmission cases through our electronic data base. Data regarding all patients subjected to LC at our Unit in the period January 1996 – December 2006 were ob...

Onboard satellite clocks are the basis of Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) operation, and their revolution periods at level 2 per day (about 12 h) in case Medium Earth Orbit (MEO) satellites. In this work, authors analysed entire BeiDou System (BDS) space segment (BDS-2 BDS-3) terms occurrence periodic, repetitive signals clock products, checked if they coincide with orbital or multip...

Atmospheric concentration and deposition samples were collected between June 2008 and June 2009 in an urban sampling site Yavuzselim, Turkey. Eighty-three polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) congeners were targeted in the collected samples. It was found that 90% of the total PCB concentration was in the gas phase. Deposition samples were collected by a wet-dry deposition sampler (WDDS) and a bulk de...

More and more Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSSs) have been developed and are in operation. Before integrating information on various GNSSs, the differences between the various systems must be studied first. This research focuses on analyzing the navigation data differences between the Chinese BeiDou Navigation Satellite System (BDS) and the United States' Global Positioning System (GPS...

The dynamic density functional (DDF) theory and standard Brownian dynamics simulations (BDS) are used to study the drifting effects of a colloidal particle in a polymer solution, both for ideal and interacting polymers. The structure of the stationary density distributions and the total induced current are analyzed for different drifting rates. We find good agreement with the BDS, which gives s...
