An intention implies not so much a predetermined opportunity for its realization as it does a need or quasi-need whose dynamic state of tension makes opportunines.1 !erefore it may be asked whether such a need functions only to accomplish this task or whether the state of tension also in"uences other aspects of the person's behaviour. In the present study we shall investigate the in"uence of su...

The phagocytic index K, established from the rate of blood clearance of colloidal carbon, measures the phagocytic activity of RE macrophages in contact with the circulating blood. The intravenous injection of glyceryl trioleate (triolein) produces a marked stimulation of the phagocytic activity of RE macrophages. This response is higher in the female than in the male mice. The phenotypic charac...

The in vivo and in vitro haemolytic activity of guaiacol glycerol ether has been investigated. Intravenous injections in concentrations of 12.5 per cent or greater produced intravascular haemolysis. The haemolysis produced was not related to the speed of injection. In vitro studies with concentrations of guaiacol glycerol ether confirmed that the critical concentration for the production of hae...

OBJECTIVE To investigate the use of the Narcotrend electroencephalogram (EEG) monitor for the assessment of anesthetic depth in horses undergoing xylazine balanced isoflurane anesthesia. STUDY DESIGN Blinded experimental study. ANIMALS Seven healthy warm-blooded horses, aged 10.6 ± 5.9 years, weighing 535 ± 55 kg. METHODS Horses were anesthetized for a terminal surgical trial with xylazin...

We develop differential and symplectic geometry of differentiable Deligne-Mumford stacks (orbifolds) including Hamiltonian group actions and symplectic reduction. As an application we construct new examples of symplectic toric DM stacks.

The goal of the present work is to study theoretically the structure of water inside the water cylinder of the inverse hexagonal mesophase (H(II)) of glyceryl monooleate (monoolein, GMO), using the method of molecular dynamics. To simplify the computational model, a fixed structure of the GMO tube is maintained. The non-standard cylindrical geometry of the system required the development and ap...

Nach großem Erfolg im letzten Jahr [1] wird 2011 zum zweitenMal von der Gesellschaft für Medizinische Ausbildung (GMA) der Preis für lehrende Studierende vergeben. Hintergrund ist das weiterhin zunehmende Engagement von Studierenden in der Verbesserung der Ausbildung ihrer Kommilitonen z.B. in Form von PeerTeaching-Kursen, Entwicklung von Unterrichtsmaterialien, Curriculumsplanung und -organisa...

The principle of utilizing a computing program describing precisely the migration of additives from a polymer into a food simulant is presented. The model has been validated with a UV absorber in polypropylene migrating into glyceryl tripelargonate, a pure triglyceride whose behaviour and average molecular weight are similar to Myglyol (a synthetic mixture of C8-C12 triglycerides). Six paramete...

This study examined the effects of storage conditions such as time course, temperature, fluorescent light, and darkness on the components and antibacterial activity of formalin guaiacol (FG) used in endodontic treatment. We measured the quantities of formaldehyde and guaiacol in FG and antibacterial activities against Staphylococcus aureus, Porphyromonas gingivalis, and Porphyromonas endodontal...
