5-Methoxy-N,N,-dimethyltryptamine (5-MeO-DMT), an abused serotonergic indolealkylamine drug, was placed into Schedule I controlled substance status in the United States as of January 19, 2011. In previous studies, we have shown the impact of monoamine oxidase A and cytochrome P450 2D6 enzymes on 5-MeO-DMT metabolism and pharmacokinetics. The aim of this study was to investigate 5-MeO-DMT pharma...

We were interested in investigating the effects of dance movement therapy (DMT) in a psychiatric outpatient clinic with patients diagnosed with depression. DMT aims to engage the patients in physical and verbal exploration of their experiences generated in movement based interaction. The assumption was that DMT, which includes both physical engagement as well as emotional and social exploration...

Optimal transceivers that minimize the transmission power for a given probability of error and transmission bit rate will be evaluated for ADSL applications. We will compare the performance of the optimal DMT systems to that of DFT based DMT systems. The experiments show that the optimal DMT system usually has a gain of 3 dB or more over that of DFT based system. For comparable performances, th...

This paper presents Diierential Multithreading (dMT) as an inexpensive way to achieve high through-put from a single-issue architecture. dMT switches among multiple instruction streams in response to pipeline stall conditions but saves in-ight instructions, thus squashing pipeline bubbles and ensuring maximal utilization of a single pipeline. dMT uses auxiliary pipeline registers to save the st...

We present experimental results of SBS suppression in high power, monolithic, Yb-doped fiber amplifiers via phase modulated laser gain competition. To narrow the linewidth, two-tone laser gain competition between broad (1036 nm) and narrow linewidth (1064 nm) laser signals is investigated in conjunction with phase modulation and yields pump limited output powers of 600 W. Here integration of bo...

Modulation transfer functions (MTFs) were measured with three different psychoacoustical paradigms in the same normal-hearing subjects. In the temporal-probe method, the threshold of a 4-ms probe tone (frequencies of 1000 and 4000 Hz) was measured at various envelope phases within a 100% sinusoidally amplitude-modulated (SAM) noise at modulation frequencies from 2 to 256 Hz. For the derived-MTF...

Threshold of 4.6-ms tone bursts was measured in quiet and in the presence of a 100% sinusoidally amplitude-modulated speech-shaped noise. For the modulated-noise conditions, the onset of the tone burst coincided either with the maximum or the minimum modulator amplitude. The difference in these two masked thresholds provided an indication of the psychoacoustic modulation depth, or the modulatio...

DMT is a software demonstration tool, running on workstations, that can be used to demonstrate other software tools. The paper describes the reasons for developing DMT and the implementation of DMT. DMT simulates a video recorder/player system and provides recording, winding (forward/backward) and replaying functions. During recording, DMT records the target tool window image changes and the in...

N,N-dimethyltryptamine (DMT) is an endogenous hallucinogenic compound in the same chemical class as the more common psilocybin and the neurotransmitter serotonin. Despite previous experimental research assessing the subjective effects of DMT (e.g., Strassman et al., 1994), no qualitative studies have been conducted. Consequently, 19 DMT users were asked to provide thorough descriptions of the s...

UNLABELLED Sphingomonas sp. strain Ndbn-20 degrades and utilizes the herbicide dicamba as its sole carbon and energy source. In the present study, a tetrahydrofolate (THF)-dependent dicamba methyltransferase gene, dmt, was cloned from the strain, and three other genes, metF, dhc, and purU, which are involved in THF metabolism, were found to be located downstream of dmt A transcriptional study r...
