The dependence of the fractal behaviors of the pomeron induced system in deep inelastic lepton-nucleon scattering upon the diffractive kinematic variables is found not to sensitive to the distinct parameterization of the pomeron flux factor and the structure function. A feasible experimental test of the phenomenological pomeron model in DESY ep collider HERA is proposed.

Angioedema secondary to C1 inhibitor deficiency has been rarely reported to be associated with systemic lupus erythematosus. A genetic defect of C1 inhibitor produces hereditary angioedema, which is usually presented with cutaneous painless edema, but edema of the genital area, gastrointestinal and laryngeal tracts have also been reported.In lupus patients, angioedema may be the result of an ac...

Using 1,4-diaminobenzene and 2-formylpyridine as simple building blocks results in a 1D ligand (rod, L2) to 2D (M4L4 grid, C1) to 3D (S4 symmetrical M4L6, C2) complexes upon sequential addition of Cu(I) and Fe(II) ions. The complex C2 can be seen as the smallest possible pseudo-tetrahedron with S4 symmetry.

The deep-sea tube worm Riftia pachyptila Jones possesses a complex of three extracellular Hbs: two in the vascular compartment, V1 (approximately 3500 kDa) and V2 (approximately 400 kDa), and one in the coelomic cavity, C1 (approximately 400 kDa). These native Hbs, their dissociation products and derivatives were subjected to electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS). The data were ana...
