introduction: iache (acetylcholinesterase) is one of the plasma’s enzymes that plays a crucial role in nervous signal transduction in synapses and is responsible for the hydrolysis of ach. material & method: we investigated three methods for the determination of ache in human blood serum, using three different assays. michel methods are based on the measurement of hydrogen ion produced in proce...

The circular code theory proposes that genes are constituted of two trinucleotide codes: the classical genetic code with 61 trinucleotides for coding the 20 amino acids (except the three stop codons {TAA,TAG,TGA}) and a circular code based on 20 trinucleotides for retrieving, maintaining and synchronizing the reading frame. It relies on two main results: the identification of a maximal C(3) sel...

This paper proceeds from an ongoing investigation of three curriculum reforms in art education from 1980 to the present. I am interested in showing how art education has constituted itself both as a subject of knowledge and as a knowing subject. This research reveals the politics of curriculum practice. Discourse analysis and theories of governmentality, arising principally from the work of the...

The in vitro bactericidal activity of cefazolin was found to be similar to that of cephaloridine and cephalothin but slightly greater than that of cephalexin against a majority of 233 strains of gram-positive and gram-negative organisms. Cefazolin, however, was twoto eightfold more active than the other two drugs against Escherichia coli and klebsiella. The mean peak concentrations in the serum...

We generalize a result from Volkov (2001,[21]) and prove that, on an arbitrary graph of bounded degree (G, ∼) and for any symmetric reinforcement matrix a = (a i,j) i∼j , the vertex-reinforced random walk (VRRW) eventually localizes with positive probability on subsets which consist of a complete d-partite subgraph plus its outer boundary. We first show that, in general, any stable equilibrium ...

AmonoidM is called surjunctive if every injective cellular automata with finite alphabet over M is surjective. We show that all finite monoids, all finitely generated commutative monoids, all cancellative commutative monoids, all residually finite monoids, all finitely generated linear monoids, and all cancellative one-sided amenable monoids are surjunctive. We also prove that every limit of ma...

“Ontological emergence” of inherent high-level properties with causal powers is witnessed nowhere. A non-substantialist conception of emergence works much better. It allows downward causation, provided our concept of causality is transformed accordingly. Foreword The thesis of the emergence of consciousness out of complex neurophysiological processes is commonplace (Freeman, 2001). Yet, it rais...
