general, any n-sequence determines a multiset of (= n!/k!(n-k)!) k-sequences. "J Suppose, conversely, that we are given a multiset 01 k-sequences. Does that multiset come from some sequence? If so, is the source sequence unique? Such questions are reminiscent of the problem of reconstructing graphs from vertex-deleted sub raphs, which has received a great deal of attention in the last twent yea...

The paper deals with a new technique of fragile image watermarking. Proposed technique exploits inter-subband dependencies in order to minimize the influence of inserted watermark on the host image quality. Using the unique watermark based on the low-frequency subband, proposed scheme is resistant against attacks based on series of images analysis. Tampering detection ability of the proposed te...

Background: Klebsiella pneumoniae is one of the most important bacteria that cause nosocomial infections. This opportunistic pathogen has a high potential for antibiotic resistance and can generate a thick layer of biofilm. Nowadays, antibiotic resistant strains are emerging and widely spreading worldwide. Thus, it is necessary to combat drug-resistant strains through the use of novel drugs (su...

The synthesis of 4-(substituted benzylidene)-2-(pyrazin-2-yl) oxazol-5(4H)-one was achieved in two steps, In first step, pyrazine-2-carboxamide  dissolved in EtOH, 10% KOH solution with ClCH2COOH produced compound 2-(pyrazine-2-carboxamido) acetic acid (II) and in second step, compound (II) in (CH3CO)2O with aromatic aldehyde, and catalyst potassium ace...

In this research, the fabrication of MCM-41 mesoporous material nanofibers by an electrospinning technique was performed. The MCM-41 nanofibers (MCM-41 NFs) as a novel host on the incorporation of silver has been studied in [Ag(NH3)2]NO3 precursor solution through the heat-treatment process. The formation of silve...

Isoluminant displays depend on responses from the parvocellular visual stream, known to code color information. We examined the influence of isoluminance on attentional guidance by color using two procedures: (i) color sub-set search (Egeth, Virzi, & Garbart, 1984) and (ii) preview search (Watson & Humphreys, 1997). We used displays that do not generate a sub-set search advantage with luminant ...

OBJECTIVES We aimed to investigate the effect of brief exposure to sub-cidal concentrations of nystatin, amphotericin B, ketoconazole, fluconazole and chlorhexidine gluconate on the adhesion of oral Candida dubliniensis isolates to the surface of acrylic dentures. METHODS After determining the minimum inhibitory concentration of each drug, 20 oral isolates of C. dubliniensis were exposed to s...

Background and Aim: Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an important ubiquitous and especially common pathogen in the hospital. Exotoxin A that encoded by exoA gene has a role in pathogenesis of this bacterium. Today, probiotics are widely used in the treatment and prevention of diseases. The present study aimed to study the Saccharomyces cerevisiae S3 effect on the expression of exoA gene. Materials an...
