Wheat is the major nutrient source worldwide. In Pakistan, it has a crucial place in agriculture as well as in national economy. For seed biochemical compositional analysis, wheat germplasm (77 genotypes) was collected from different agro-climatic zones of Pakistan. Significant variation (p < 0.05) was observed for tested parameters among tested genotypes. Highest activity of ascorbate peroxida...

the specificity of gentamicin for vitamin e deficiency-associated oxidative stresses in the renal proximal convoluted tubules is apparently related to its ability to increasingly facilitate generation of radical species in mitochondria. to determine the ways in which vitamin e manage the currently processes, we conducted a prospective study aimed to investigate the tubular preserving effect of ...

Available surfactants for treatment of respiratory distress syndrome in newborn infants are derived from animal lungs, which limits supply and poses a danger of propagating infectious material. Poly-Val-->poly-Leu analogs of surfactant protein (SP)-C can be synthesized in large quantities and exhibit surface activity similar to SP-C. Here, activity of synthetic surfactants containing a poly-Leu...

Survival for patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mcrc) has improved substantially as a result of advances in surgical resection and systemic therapy 1–3. Two such therapies are the monoclonal antibodies, panitumumab and cetuximab, which are directed against the human epidermal growth factor receptor (egfr). In randomized phase iii studies, these antibodies have demonstrated efficacy for...

Clustering Web services that groups together services with similar functionalities helps improve both the accuracy and efficiency of the Web service search engines. An important limitation of existing Web service clustering approaches is that they solely focus on utilizing WSDL (Web Service Description Language) documents. There has been a recent trend of using user-contributed tagging data to ...

PSYCHOSTTMULANTS, particularly amphetamine, became available in America for clinical use in 1937, and since then have been widely prescribed. More recently, their bene ficial effects have been overshadowed by the recognition of a significant abuse potential. Nevertheless, the military services, particularly the Air Force, have recognized the value of psychostimulants under certain conditions. U...

Theorem 1 Let M be mistakes of RWM and Mi the mistakes of expert i. Then, RWM satisfies E[M ] ≤ (1 + )Mi + log n/ . Recall that to prove this, we kept weights wt(i) on each expert i, and updated them as wt+1(i) = (1 − mt(i)η)wt(i). Here mt was the mistake vector (outcome). RWM played i with probability pt(i) = wt(i)/Wt, where Wt = ∑ iwt(i). This gives Wt+1 = Wt(1 − ηmt · pt). We then used that ...
