Using an avidin:biotin immunoperoxidase system with monoclonal antibodies to lymphocyte subsets, we have investigated the host response to malignant melanoma and melanocytic nevi in frozen sections. Eight primary melanomas, eight metastases, three dysplastic nevi, and two dermal nevi were studied with antibodies T11, T4, T8, and B1. Sections were read in a semiquantitative manner by two observe...

Lilies are one of the most extensively sold cut flowers due to their quantity and variety colours [1]. This this study aims at development bulbs from microbulblets by use different bio-enhancers growth substances decrease time for bulblet bulb ontogenic development. The experiment was carried out in Department Horticulture, Sikkim University year 2016-2017 find effect bio enhancers on enhanceme...

in order to investigate the effects of fertilizer types and irrigation regimes on quantitative criteria of three medicinal plants: lavander, rosemary and hyssop, an experiment was conducted at research field of faculty of agriculture, ferdowsi university of mashhad, during two growing years of 2007-2010. a split-split plot design with three replications was used. treatments were three irrigatio...

We estimated PM2.5-related public health impacts/ton emitted of primary PM2.5, SO2, and NOx for a set of power plants in the Mid-Atlantic and Lower Great Lakes regions of the United States, selected to include varying emission profiles and broad geographic representation. We then developed a regression model explaining variability in impacts per ton emitted using the population distributions ar...

BtuB is a TonB-dependent outer-membrane transporter for vitamin B12 (or cyanocobalamin, CN-Cbl) in Escherichia coli. The binding of CN-Cbl is believed to promote an unfolding or undocking of the Ton box, the conserved N-terminal energy coupling motif at the periplasmic surface of the transporter. This structural change may facilitate the interaction of BtuB with the inner membrane protein TonB....

Weathering modeling introduces blemishes such as dirt, rust, cracks and scratches to virtual scenery. In this paper we present a visual simulation technique that works well for a wide variety of weathering phenomena. Our technique, called γ-ton tracing, is based on a type of aging-inducing particles called γ-tons. Modeling a weathering effect with γ-ton tracing involves tracing a large number o...

We analyse CO2 emissions reduction costs based on project data from the Climate Cent Foundation (CCF), a climate policy instrument in Switzerland. We draw four conclusions. First, for the projects investigated, the CCF on average pays € 63/t. Due to the Kyoto Protocol, the CCF buys reductions until 2012 only. This cutoff increases reported per ton reduction costs, as the additional lifetime pro...

Traumatic optic neuropathy (TON) refers to any insult to the optic nerve secondary to trauma. The incidence of TON after traumatic head injury in various studies ranges from 0.5-2.3%. An impact injury to the optic nerve often resulting in significant visual loss and even blindness.The vast majority of TON cases are seen in males,around thirty years of age. TON can be classified depending on the...

Cross-correlation of neural discharges was used to investigate the connections between expiratory bulbospinal neurons (EBSNs) in the caudal medulla and expiratory motoneurons innervating thoracic and abdominal muscles in anesthetized cats. Peaks were seen in the cross-correlation histograms for around half of the EBSN-nerve pairs for the following: at T8, the nerve branches innervating internal...

A 43-year-old male with a phenotypically homogeneous, expanded subset of T cells presented in 1981 with anemia and neutropenia. The surface antigen phenotype of 99% of the peripheral blood lymphocytes was T3+, T8+, T4-, and they were morphologically large granular lymphocytes (LGL). The same cells comprised 37% of the marrow nucleated cells. Eight months after he presented, the peripheral blood...
