In Radars, an electromagnetic waveform will be sent, and an echo of the same signal will be received by the receiver. From this received signal, by extracting various parameters such as round trip delay, doppler frequency it is possible to find distance, speed, altitude, etc. However, nowadays as the technology increases, intruders are intercepting transmitted signal as it reaches them, and the...

The high-density lipoproteins LPI and LPII were isolated from the hemolymph of the crayfish Cherax quadricarinatus by gradient ultracentrifugation and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Both lipoproteins contained a carotenoid moiety. LPI is comprised of a single polypeptide with an approximate molecular mass of 96 kDa. LPII was composed of two similar native components, LPIIa and L...

Farmers must balance the competing goals of supplying contributions of background reflectance, while spectral vegetation indices that combined reflectances of near-infrared adequate N for their crops while minimizing N losses to the environment. To characterize the spatial variability of N and other visible bands (MCARI and NIR/Green) were responsive to both leaf chlorophyll concentrations and ...

PURPOSE To investigate the power use and complication frequency of resident-performed laser peripheral iridotomy (LPI). METHODS A retrospective analysis of 196 eyes from 103 patients who underwent neodymium: yttrium-aluminum-garnet laser iridotomy performed by resident physicians from January 1, 2010 through April 30, 2015 at a university-based county hospital was done. All patients were trea...

A 28-day feeding trial was conducted to evaluate the effects of dietary inclusion of Neem (Azadirachta indica) leaf meal on the haematological and serum biochemical indices of starter broilers. The Neem leaves used in the experiment were manually harvested, air-dried and milled to become Neem leaf meal. The Neem leaf meal was included in broiler starter diets at 0, 2.5, 5.0, 7.5 and 10% levels,...

Vegetation moisture and dry matter content are important indicators in predicting the behavior of fire and it is widely used in fire spread models. In this study, leaf fuel moisture content such as Live Fuel Moisture Content (LFMC), Leaf Relative Water Content (RWC), Dead Fuel Moisture Content (DFMC), and Leaf Dry Matter Content (LDMC) (hereinafter known as moisture content indices (MCI)) were ...

The Surveyor General of New South Wales is a verifying authority under the National Measurement Act 1960 and responsible for ensuring that surveyors use verified measuring equipment. According to the Surveying and Spatial Information Regulation 2012, surveyors are required to verify their Electronic Distance Measurement (EDM) equipment in relation to an Australian standard of measurement of len...

Rathus, Wagner, and Miller recently reported on the development and psychometric evaluation of the Life problems Inventory (LPI), a self report tool to measure Linehan’s conceptualition of borderline personality disorder (BPD) as a disorder primarily of the emotion regulation system, and in particular, problems with regulation of emotions, impulses, relationships, and self. Thus, the LPI maps o...

INTRODUCTION All living organisms have evolved sophisticated mechanisms to maintain appropriate iron levels in their cells and within their body. Recently our understanding of iron metabolism has dramatically increased. Overt labile plasma iron (LPI) represents a component of non-transferrin bound iron (NTBI) that is both redox active and chelatable, capable of permeating into organs and induci...

CoA-dependent transacylation activity in microsomes catalyzes the transfer of fatty acid between phospholipids and lysophospholipids in the presence of CoA without the generation of free fatty acid. We examined the mechanism of the transacylation system using partially purified acyl-CoA:lysophosphatidylinositol (LPI) acyltransferase (LPIAT) from rat liver microsomes to test our hypothesis that ...
