The purpose of this study was to examine the potential application of Sorbitol, Sucrose and Gelatin in combination with glycerol in order to Theileria annulata infected cell line cryo-preservation. The efficiency of the freezing methods was compared by assessing the viability and plating efficiency of cells after resuscitation, dilution and equilibration in cell culture medium. As a result, the...

In this study we examined the shape of the association between temperature and mortality in 13 Spanish cities representing a wide range of climatic and socio-demographic conditions. The temperature value linked with minimum mortality (MMT) and the slopes before and after the turning point (MMT) were calculated. Most cities showed a V-shaped temperature-mortality relationship. MMTs were generall...

At the Niigata University Hospital, various kinds of prosthetic valves such as the Starr-Edwards nonclothand cloth-covered, Bjork-Shiley tilting disc, and Carpentier-Edwards porcine valves, have been used from September, 1965 to March, 1979 for replacement of diseased valves on 176 patients. The patients with Starr-Edwards nonclothand cloth-covered ball valves showed survival rates of 90 and 84...
