PURPOSE To test the ability of two preparations of FGF2-saporin, either FGF2 chemically conjugated to saporin (FGF2-SAP) or genetically engineered FGF2-saporin (rFGF2-SAP) to inhibit the growth of bovine epithelial lens (BEL) cells in vitro when in solution and when immobilized on heparin surface-modified (HSM) polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) intraocular lenses (IOLs). METHOD Bovine epithelial ...

The flux density measured at satellite altitude with a fixed field of view radiometer differs from the true flux density reflected by the earth-atmosphere system within the field of view of the radiometer. This difference is due to angular response characteristics ofthe radiometer, solid angle effects due to geometry, and angular reflectance effects of the earth-atmosphere system. All of these ...

The present work investigates an appropriate way to calculate the 1700 atomic density changes in the reactor operations. To automate this procedure, a computer program has been designed by C#. This program suggests a way to solve this problem which is based on the solution system of differential equations (Bitman) that it is designed according to Runge-Kutta Fehlberg method. The designed softwa...

beet necrotic yellow vein virus (bnyvv) is the causal agent of sugar beet rhizomania, disease .  in the present study which was conducted in 2005 in shiraz, iran, serological methods (including elisa) were used for detection of disease and screening of disease tolerant germplasm in sugar beet breeding programs. for doing this, iranian isolate of bnyvv was purified and a specific antiserum was p...

This paper presents the design optimization of axial flux surface mounted Permanent Magnet Brushless DC motor based on genetic algorithm for an electrical vehicle application. The rating of the motor calculated form vehicle dynamics is 250 W, 150 rpm. The axial flux surface mounted Permanent Magnet Brushless DC (PMBLDC) motor was designed to fit in the rim of the wheel. There are several design...

A permanent magnet structure for maximizing the flux density per weight of magnetic material comprising a hollow body flux source for generating a magnetic field in the central gap of the hollow body, the magnetic field having a flux density greater than the residual flux density of the hollow body flux source. The hollow body flux source has a generally elliptic-shape, defined by unequal major...
