Executive Summary There are many sources of data integrity errors within storage networks and devices. The T10 (SCSI) standards committee developed the Data Integrity Field specification (DIF) to provide protection within storage disks by extending the size of disk sectors by 8 bytes, which contain protection information, including a 16 bit CRC. This integrity metadata enables corrupted write a...

In congenital bilateral absence of the vas deferens patients, the T5 allele at the polymorphic Tn locus in the CFTR (cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator) gene is a frequent disease mutation with incomplete penetrance. This T5 allele will result in a high proportion of CFTR transcripts that lack exon 9, whose translation products will not contribute to apical chloride channel act...

Different herbs and spices have been used as feed additives for various purposes in poultry production. This study was conducted to assess the effect of feed supplemented with black pepper (Piper nigrum), turmeric powder (Curcuma longa), coriander seeds (Coriandrum sativum) and their combinations on the performance of broilers. A total of 210 (Cobb) one-d-old chicks were divided into seven grou...

Despite multiple control measures, Escherichia coli O157:H7 (STEC O157:H7) continues to be responsible for many food borne outbreaks in North America and elsewhere. Bacteriophage therapy may prove useful for controlling this pathogen in the host, their environment and food. Bacteriophage vB_EcoS_AKFV33 (AKFV33), a T5-like phage of Siphoviridae lysed common phage types of STEC O157:H7 and not no...

Synaptic circuits for identified behaviors in the Drosophila brain have typically been considered from either a developmental or functional perspective without reference to how the circuits might have been inherited from ancestral forms. For example, two candidate pathways for ON- and OFF-edge motion detection in the visual system act via circuits that use respectively either T4 or T5, two cell...

Navarrete-Opazo A, Mitchell GS. Recruitment and plasticity in diaphragm, intercostal, and abdominal muscles in unanesthetized rats. J Appl Physiol 117: 180–188, 2014. First published May 15, 2014; doi:10.1152/japplphysiol.00130.2014.—Although rats are a frequent model for studies of plasticity in respiratory motor control, the relative capacity of rat accessory respiratory muscles to express pl...

– We study in detail by means of ab-initio pseudopotential calculations the electronic structure of five-fold coordinated (T5) defects in a-Si and a-Si:H, also during their formation and their evolution upon hydrogenation. The atom-projected densities of states (DOS) and an accurate analysis of the valence charge distribution clearly indicate the fundamental contribution of T5 defects in origin...

Nicks within one strand of the bacteriophage T5 DNA molecule act as " weak points" for a novel kind mechanical breakage that can be utilized for "dissecting" the genome. The products from sheared T5(+) DNA include five unique double-stranded segments of the molecule and various combinations of adjacent segments. These specific fragments are not obtained after repair of the nicks with DNA ligase...
