conclusions light and temperature were both relevant factors that contributed to the growth and beta-carotene accumulation of the three d. salina strains, and nahco3 had significantly positive effects on growth. the degree of impact of the different factors on cell growth was temperature > nahco3 > light intensity > kno3 > co (nh2)2 > strains; the impact on beta-carotene accumulation was temper...

The aim of the article is to trigger debate and set theoretical basis for further research on a framework Polish paradiplomacy. It also an invitation discussion desirable vision local diplomacy, from perspective foreign policy. analysis focuses institutional dimension paradiplomacy, which was shaped into civic policy (LCD), in 2012. Sources consist mainly official documents communications. auth...

In this paper we develop methods for classifying Baker-Richter-Szymik's Azumaya algebras over a commutative ring spectrum, especially in the largely inaccessible case where is nonconnective. We give obstruction-theoretic tools, constructing and these their automorphisms with Goerss-Hopkins obstruction theory, descent-theoretic applying Lurie's work on $\infty$-categories to show that finite Gal...

To evaluate the clinical utility of a new method with dynamic single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) and scatter and attenuation compensation to estimate both total and regional liver function quantitatively. Five controls, 20 patients with chronic liver disease, and 2 patients with Budd-Chiari syndrome were studied. Dynamic liver SPECT data were acquired during 20 minutes after inj...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Oxidative stress after ischemia/reperfusion has been shown to induce DNA damage and subsequent DNA repair activity. Ku 70/86, multifunctional DNA repair proteins, bind to broken DNA ends and trigger a DNA repair pathway. We investigated the involvement of these proteins in the development of neuronal tolerance to global cerebral ischemia after ischemic preconditioning. ...
