The rise in hepatic DNA synthesis in response to partial hepatectomy was accelerated in rats subjected to surgery 4.5 to 8 hr or 3 days before hepatectomy. Bovine growth hor mone, in doses from 0.03 to 2.0 mg, also accelerated the response to hepatectomy, but cortisone, hydrocortisone, and adrenocorticotropic hormone were ineffective. Neither surgery nor growth hormone stimulated DNA synthesis ...

An analytic study was conducted on coupled partial differential equations. We formally derived new solitary wave solutions of generalized coupled system of Zakharov-Kuznetsov (ZK) and KdV equations by using modified extended tanh method. The traveling wave solutions for each generalized coupled system of ZK and KdV equations are shown in form of periodic, dark, and bright solitary wave solution...

The author contends that sex differentials in childhood mortality in Pakistan are a likely outcome of son preference behavior by parents. Consideration is given to the historical improvement in the female disadvantage in mortality, the neglect of female children, gender and class factors, and son preference and high fertility. Data are from the 1981 Pakistan census and other official surveys....

A major hurdle for the wide spread commercialization of proton exchange membrane based fuel cells (PEMFCs) and water electrolyzers are durability high cost noble metal catalysts. Here, alternative support materials might offer advantages, as they can alter properties a catalyst by means strong interaction (SMSI) that has been shown to prevent platinum oxidation suppress oxygen reduction reactio...

We evaluated the activities of well-defined Ru@Pt core-shell nanocatalysts for hydrogen evolution and oxidation reactions (HER-HOR) using hanging strips of gas diffusion electrode (GDE) in solution cells. With gas transport limitation alleviated by micro-porous channels in the GDEs, the charge transfer resistances (CTRs) at the hydrogen reversible potential were conveniently determined from lin...

We report on the discovery of the young, nearby, brown dwarf 2MASS J0041353−562112. The object has a spectral type of M7.5, it shows Li absorption and signatures of accretion, which implies that it still has a disk and suggests an age below 10Myr. The space motion vector and position on the sky indicate that the brown dwarf is probably a member of the ∼20Myr old Tuc-Hor association, or that it ...
