El objetivo del presente estudio fue determinar la seroprevalencia parásito Toxoplasma gondii en cabras departamento de Piura, Perú. Se evaluaron 362 muestras suero haciendo uso un kit comercial ELISA indirecto, cual revela presencia anticuerpos IgG anti-T. gondii. La real hallada 26.29% (IC 95%: 21.74 - 30.84%). Los intervalos confianza 95%) evidenciaron diferencia significativa las seropositi...

In this study, we report three novel naturally occurring compounds, blapsins A (1) and B (2), and blapsamide (3) from the ethanol extract of the stink beetle, Blaps japanensis. The structures of these compounds were determined using spectroscopic methods. Compound 3 is a phenolic compound bearing a formamido group in the structure. Functional studies revealed that compounds 1 and 2 potently inh...

Glyphosate is widely used in herbicides and is toxic to organism. Therefore accurate detection of glyphosate content is important for public health and food security. In this paper, methods such as gas chromatography (GC), high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC/MS), liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC/MS), ion chromatography (IC), capilla...

background: the number of interventional cardiology (ic) procedures has increased rapidly. coronary angiography (ca) and percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (ptca) are now widely performed as a matter of routine, and they are considered safe procedures for experienced cardiologists. however, it is also known that these procedures are associated with high radiation doses due to long f...

A highly sensitive assay, based on polymerase chain reaction amplification of cDNA synthesized from the viral RNA of antibody-captured viral particles, has been developed for plum pox potyvirus (PPV) detection. The reaction, called immunocapture/PCR (IC/PCR), yields a specific 243-bp product. The immunocapture step, by allowing the use of large sample volumes and by the viral particle prepurifi...

Given a coloring f : V (G) → IN of graph G and any subgraph H ⊂ G we define fs(H) = ∑ v∈V (H) f(v). In particular, we denote fs(G) by S(f). The coloring f is called an ICcoloring if for any integer k ∈ [1, S(f)] there is a connected subgraph H ⊂ G such that fs(H) = k. Also, we define the IC-index of G to be M(G) = max{ S(f) : f is an IC-coloring of G }. In this paper we examine some well-known ...
