The double strand break induced by an artificial restriction DNA cutter (ARCUT) was successfully repaired in human cells with high frequencies through homologous recombination.

Seventy percent of radionuclides discharged during the Chernobyl disaster were deposited in Belarus. Besides causing radioactive contamination, the tragedy at Chernobyl exposed some of the socio-cultural characteristics, such as mass dependency on strong patronage of the state, that buttress the political institutions of that country. On the basis of a literature review, a specialist on Belarus...

0001 The recent discovery of a Hobbit-like hominid on the Indonesian island of Flores was startling in some respects—its rather modern existence, for one—but it represents a classic case of Darwinian evolution. For reasons that are not entirely clear, when animals make their way to isolated islands, they tend to evolve relatively quickly toward an outsized or pint-sized version of their mainlan...

BACKGROUND Current WHO best infection control practices for injections do not address the use of hub cutters due to insufficient evidence on safety and efficacy. OBJECTIVE To assess the impact of the use of hub cutters on 1) the frequency of needle-stick injuries (NSIs) and other blood exposures among workers and 2) the volume of sharps waste in a mass vaccination campaign setting. METHODS ...

In recent years there has been an increasing interest in the use of relational event models for dynamic social network analysis. The basis these is concept “event”, defined as a triplet time, sender, and receiver some interaction. key question that aim to answer what drives pattern interactions among actors. Researchers often consider very large number predictors their studies (including exogen...

Recycled waste materials obtained from industrial and agricultural processes are becoming promising thermal acoustic insulating solutions in building applications; their use can play an important role the environmental impact reduction. The aim of present paper is evaluation performance recycled panels consisting cork scraps, rice husk, coffee chaff, end-life granulated tires, glued different w...

This paper investigates the influence of adding vegetal fibers on thermal and acoustic performance based natural hydraulic lime. Mortar samples with 10% weight were fabricated water to obtain easily workable mortars good consistency; their was compared mortar without fibers. The different types (rice husk, spelt bran, Khorasan (turanicum) wheat chaff) size (as-found ground form). Thermal measur...
