Higher-order programming languages, such as ML, permit a exible programming style by using compile-time type inference together with the concept of type polymorphism, which allows to specify the types of generic functions. In ML, however, recursive functions must always be given a unique (monomorphic) type inside their deenition. Giving polymorphic types to recursive functions is known as the p...

Plasmodium vivax apical membrane antigen-1(PvAMA-1) is a surface protein with polymorphic sites. This study was aimed to analyze the polymorphic amino acid residues at PvAMA-1 in different infected age groups. 92 blood samples were collected from south and southeast of Iran. The DNA coding for the domain I (DI), DII, and partial DIII of this antigen was amplified by Nested-PCR, and sequenced. N...

Tropical commercial sea cucumber Stichopus horrens is extensively distributed throughout the tropical Indo-Pacific region, and wild stocks have been severely depleted over the past decade. In this study, we used the microsatellite enrichment library of S. horrens to identify and characterize 13 microsatellite loci, including 11 polymorphic loci and 2 monomorphic loci. Among the 11 polymorphic l...

Dry pollen of diploid Solanum clone 9507-04, Cotton chromosomal substitution line and Echinacea purpurea „Magnus‟ were isolated and their cells contents released in individual tubes containing water or pollen germination media, respectively.Six polymorphic markers from individual pollen grains of the diploid potato were amplified using two random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) primers, i.e., ...

The present work is aimed at studying the adsorption capacity of powdered Fuller’s earth for the removal of ferri/ferrous impurities found in commercial grade sodium sulphide. The latter is not suitable for the manufacture of pharmaceutical grade chemicals and dye chemicals. The author has carried out experiments taking different dosage of powdered Fuller’s earth as an adsorbent in the aqueous ...

Recent years have witnessed the explosion of online social networks (OSNs). They provide powerful IT-innovations for online social activities such as organizing contacts, publishing contents, and sharing interests between friends who may never meet before. As more and more people become the active users of online social networks, one may ponder questions such as: (1) Do OSNs indeed improve our ...

In a given space of models or hypothesis the individual information content of each of them is considered as opposed to the Shannon ́s entropy that measures the average information content of the mentioned space. Single model information contents allow expressing, in the Information Theory framework, Bayes ́ Theorem and Shannon ́s Information Functions (like the Kullback-Leibler divergence or the ...
