This paper records a further stage in the attempt to draw up a balance sheet for the fate ofa single dose of sulphapyridine in the rabbit. Bray, Neale & Thorpe (1946) found that a considerable proportion ofa dose of sulphapyridine could not be accounted for in rabbit urine by methods of estimation based upon the diazo reaction, especially at higher dose levels (0-5--0 g./kg.). We were unable si...

Worldwide, breast cancer is the most common cancer diagnosed among women and is the leading cause of cancer deaths (Parkin et al., 2005; Benson and Jatoi, 2012; Bray et al., 2013). In the Sri Lankan context, neoplasms are the second leading cause of hospital deaths (Ministry of Health, 2013) and breast cancer is the commonest cancer accounting for 26% of newly diagnosed female cancers in 2007 (...

INTRODUCTION Since the work of Wever & Bray (1933) many electrophysiological studies have been made on sound reception in insects and it has been established that their receptive organs can readily detect the direction of sound and can discriminate its intensity, but not its frequency (Pumphrey, 1940; Autrum, 1955). More recently Haskell (1956, 1957), Haskell & Belton (1956), and Roeder & Treat...

BACKGROUND High-throughput sequencing has led to increased insights into the human skin microbiome. Currently, the majority of skin microbiome investigations are limited to characterizing prokaryotic communities, and our understanding of the skin fungal community (mycobiome) is limited, more so for cohorts outside of the western hemisphere. Here, the skin mycobiome across healthy Chinese indivi...

The results of Bray, Franklin & James (1959) suggest that the guinea pig cannot acetylate S-substituted L-cysteines as readily as can the rabbit or the rat. Since the failure to demonstrate acetylation might have been due to the presence of an active deacetylating system (cf. Krebs, Sykes & Bartley, 1947) we have investigated the excretion by the rabbit, rat and guinea pig of some administered ...

Abstract. Application of the convergent close-coupling (CCC) method to electronimpact ionization of the ground state of atomic hydrogen is considered at incident energies of 15.6, 17.6, 20, 25, 27.2, 30, 54.4, 150 and 250 eV. Total through to fully differential cross sections are presented. Following the analysis of Stelbovics [submitted to Phys. Rev. Lett. (http://xxx.lanl.gov/abs/physics/9905...

to determine the coefficients of c1 and c in mitscherlich-bray equation, critical level and fertilizer recommendation for potassium (k) as by mitscherlich-bray (mb) equation, an experiment in a randomized complete block design of 5 treatments and 3 replications was carried out in 12 irrigated wheat (triticum aestivum l.) fields in sarpol-e-zohab region during the 2007-08 growing season. the tre...
