Introduction: There are many ways to treat cancer and pain relief. One of the methods is radiopharmaceutical therapy. Indium 111-rituximab contains the radioisotope indium-111 and rituximab. The Indium-111, after decay, emits gamma rays with energies of 245 KeV and 171 KeV, and beta-radiation of 26 KeV. In this study, the absorbed dose of 111In-Rituximab in human body was calcu...

Few studies have examined the effects of plant growth on nutrient remobilization in phenologically contrasting species. Here we evaluated the consequences of above-ground seasonality of growth and leaf shedding on the remobilization of nutrients from branches in eight evergreen Mediterranean phanaerophytes that differ widely in phenology. Vegetative growth, flower bud formation, flowering, frui...

The experiment was conducted under the agro-ecological zone of Modhupur Tract (AEZ-28) to determine the genetic diversity among 39 rice genotypes, collected from Bangladesh Rice Research Institute, Lal Teer Seed Ltd. and Chittagong Hill Tracts. The genotypes were grouped into six clusters based on Mahalanobis’s D 2 statistics and Canonical Variate Analysis. Cluster I consisted with the highest ...

.In order to create the simulation model of Above-ground Organs Morphogenesis of Flue-cured Tobacco, the dynamic model of organ morphology in different growing step of tobacco was built with potting experimental methods with which the biomass of tobacco organ in different growth period can be systematically determined. As simulation of organ morphology of tobacco measured in 2007 shows that the...

This paper describes an iterative repair search method called constraint-based simulated annealing. Simulated annealing is a hill climbing search technique capable of escaping local minima. We demonstrate the utility of our constraint-based framework by comparing search performance with and without the constraint framework on a suite of randomly generated problems. We also show results of apply...

1. A fundamental trade-off among vascular plants between traits inferring rapid resource acquisition and those leading to conservation of resources has now been accepted broadly, but is based on empirical data with a strong bias toward leaf traits. Here we test whether interspecific variation in traits of different plant organs obeys this same trade-off and whether within-plant trade-offs are c...

Orbitally excited heavy-light mesons are potentially important as tools for tagging the flavors and momenta of ground-state pseudoscalars detected through weak decays. We use heavy-quark symmetry supplemented by insights gleaned from potential models to estimate masses and widths of p-wave B, Bs, and Ds mesons. We generalize these results to higher excitations. PACS numbers: 14.40.Jz, 13.25.+m,...

Vertical impact force during downhill running should be analyzed in terms of risk of injuries caused in hill training of distance runners. In spite that the impact force in running was influenced by some kinematic parameters at the foot contact (Gerritsen et al. 1995), few studies analyzed interactions between ground reaction forces (GRFs) and kinematics during downhill running in detail. The p...

The growth and morphogenesis of plants are entirely dependent on the gravitational acceleration of earth. Under microgravity conditions in space, these processes are greatly modified. Recent space experiments, in combination with ground-based studies, have shown that elongation growth is stimulated and lateral expansion suppressed in various shoot organs and roots under microgravity conditions....
