Seventy-two, suckling piglets, obtained from 9 litters standardized to 8 piglets, were assigned to 1 of 3 treatments (n = 24) to compare short-term, early administration with intermittent, longer-term administration of Lactobacillus reuteri I5007. The treatments were a control (given a placebo of 0.1% peptone water from day 1 to 5) or treatments in which 1.7 × 1010 CFU L. reuteri was administra...

The effect of different feeding behaviours of 1st and 4th instar Trichoplusia ni on photosynthesis of Arabidopsis thaliana var. Columbia was characterized using spatially resolved measurements of fluorescence and leaf temperature, as well as leaf gas exchange,. First instars made small holes with a large perimeter-to-area ratio and avoided veins, while 4th instars made large holes with a low pe...

Kojic acid is a naturally occurring compound used extensively as a food additive, as a food preservative, and as an ingredient in skin-lightening agents. A number of studies have reported possible toxicity and/or carcinogenicity of kojic acid, but the mechanisms involved remain unclear. We investigated effect of kojic acid on the expression of several cytochrome P450 isoforms in rats. Male F344...

The MF8 consists of two second-order bandpass filter stages and an inverting operational amplifier. The two filter stages are identical and may be used as two tracking second-order bandpass filters, or cascaded to form a single fourth-order bandpass filter. The center frequency is controlled by an external clock for optimal accuracy, and may be set anywhere between 0.1 Hz and 20 kHz. The ratio ...

Although this is a comprehensive textbook on clinical research design, it takes the reader in a truly step by step manner in designing a clinical research. It starts with explaining what a clinical research is made of the “anatomy” and how it works the “physiology.” It then covers how to conceive a research question, writing research proposals and ends with explaining not commonly discussed sub...

There is increasing recognition of the growing population burden of cancer in all countries worldwide – a reflection of the increasing number of people and the aging of the global population as a result of the demographic transition associated with global human development. There is also an increasing realization that the burden of cancer will become greatest amongst those with the least capaci...

Regarding the definition of gliomatosis cerebri (hereinafter referred to as "GC"), the 3rd edition of the WHO Classification of Central Nervous System Tumors (hereinafter referred to as "3rd ed.") provides only a five-line description that GC is a diffuse, frequently bilateral, glioma that infiltrates the brain, involving more than two lobes. It often extends to the infratentorial structures an...
