Initial ligand selection and the intermolecular spatial arrangement of glycan-lectin complexes are assumed to be essential to induce formation of stable cell aggregates by a lectin. To distinguish effects of these two processes, the tetrameric mistletoe lectin and its isolated B-chain were used. A reduced impact of multivalency for Ehrlich ascites tumor cells in contrast to rat thymocytes was r...

Abstract Due to the high demand for natural aggregates in pavement construction, researchers have been looking alternative materials replace aggregate. In this research, optimum binder content of asphalt mixture incorporate limestones was investigated. The tested according Marshall method. About 20 % limestone used as aggregate replacement asphaltic concrete mixture. To determine stability, vol...

In this paper, the decomposition-aggregation method is used to carry out connective stability criteria for general linear composite system via aggregation. The large scale system is decomposed into a number of subsystems. By associating directed graphs with dynamic systems in an essential way, we define the relation between system structure and stability in the sense of Lyapunov. The stability ...

The formation and stabilization of soil aggregates play a key role in soil functions. To date, few studies have been performed on the variation of soil aggregation with increasing soil weathering degree. Here, soil aggregation and its influencing factors along the weathering gradient were investigated. Six typical zonal soils (derived from similar parent materials) were sampled from temperate t...

soil physical properties have an important role on vegetation growththrough affecting the development of root system. the aim of this study was toinvestigate the trampling effect of livestock grazing on soil physical properties andvegetation cover changes. the experiment was conducted on three range conditionsites (reference, key and critical area) with ten frequencies in hosseinabadekudistan i...

effects of different tillage systems on dispersion ratio, status of aggregation, degree of aggregation, mean weight diameter, geometric diameter, the rain-fed wheat yield and the yield components were investigated by a field trial using a completely randomized block design with five treatments in four replicates during 2009-2010 growing season at gorgan university of agricultural science and na...
