The distribution and subcellular localization of microtubules in rat brain cerebellum was analyzed by immunohistochemistry with antibodies prepared against 3 synthetic peptides corresponding to the C-terminal region of beta-tubulin. The peptides used correspond to amino acid positions 416-425 (peptide 1), 416-431 (peptide 2), and 426-445 (peptide 4). The antibodies thus obtained displayed a rem...

BACKGROUND Accurate and rapid detection of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus is very important in a clinical laboratory setting to avoid treatment failure. Conventional methods were compared against the gold standard polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technique to determine the best combination of the routine procedures. METHODOLOGY Methicillin resistance was investigated in 416 clinic...

This paper explores the effects of monetary shocks on the allocation of factors of production. We analyze these effects when money plays a role in improving the timing of the transactions undertaken by entrepreneurs. Such improvement is facilitated by money’s important role in providing liquidity to entrepreneurs. Using a model in which production processes take time to mature and where credit ...

This paper explores the institution of apprenticeship in Ghana. A model is presented where apprenticeship training is highly idiosyncratic, increasing an individual's productivity in the current firm, but not in any other firm. Still, individuals are willing to fund apprenticeships as they can reap the returns to the specific training of apprenticeship if they manage to acquire the capital requ...
