Chromatin organization in the holocentric chromosomes of three triatomines species was cytologically studied by fluorescent in situ hybridization with a 45S rDNA probe of Drosophila melanogaster to localize ribosomal genes. In Triatoma tibiamaculata, metaphases I showed telomeric highlights in a single, larger bivalent. In T. protacta, hybridization was detected in one of the telomeres of an au...

This paper compares different coating methods (in situ solid combustion, hybrid deposition, secondary growth on seed, suspension, double deposition of wet impregnation and suspension) to deposit Ce0.2Zr0.8O₂ mixed oxides on cordierite substrates, for use as a three way catalyst. Among them, the double deposition was proven to be the most efficient one. The coated sample shows a BET (Brunauer-Em...

Two series of supported V,O,/TiO, and MoO,/TiO, catalysts were synthesized using different preparation methods to determine the possible influence of the preparation procedures upon the final molecular structures of the catalysts. It has been found by means of ambient and in situ Raman spectroscopy that all the employed preparation methods lead to the same types of surface metal oxide species o...

Iron oxide impregnated casein nanoparticles (IOICNPs) were prepared by in-situ precipitation of iron oxide within the casein matrix. The resulting iron oxide impregnated casein nanoparticles (IOICNPs) were characterized by Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), Vibrating sample magnet...

we have analyzed paraffin sections from 55 patients with histologically confirmed hodgkin’s disease (hd) for the presence of epstein-barr virus (ebv) markers using in situ hybridization to detect the ebv-encoded rnas (ebers) and immunohistochemistry to identify latent membrane protein-1 (lmp1) expression. tissue specimens from 55 cases of hodgkin’s disease included 22-mixed cellularity (mc), 27...

purpose : to investigate the application of mitomycin-c 0.02% (mmc) in the photorefractive keratectomy (prk) procedure in correcting regressed myopia methods : eighteen eyes of 11 patients with a spherical equivalent (se) of less than -5 diopters (d) who had undergone laser in situ keratomileusis (lasik) more than 2 years before were operated on. at the end of the prk procedure, mmc was applied...

background:breast cancer remains the most common and second lethal cancer in females. her-2/neu is one of the most important amplified oncogene in breast cancer. the amplification of her-2 is correlated with decreased survival, metastasis, and early recurrence.  the amplification of her-2/neu gene and synthesis of the protein are reported in 10%-34% of breast cancer cases associated with tumor ...

background the incidence rate of gastric cancer in western countries has shown a remarkable decline in the recent years while it is still the most common cancer among males in iran. the proto-oncogene myc, located at 8q24.1, regulates almost 15% of human genes and is activated in 20% of all tumors. the amplification of myc and overexpression of its protein product are observed in 15 - 30% of ga...
