This paper aims at investigating the acquisition of Italian complex predicates by native speakers of Persian. Complex predication is not as pervasive a phenomenon in Italian as it is in Persian. Yet Italian native speakers use complex predicates productively; spontaneous data show that Persian learners of Italian seem to be perfectly aware of Italian complex predicates and use this familiar fea...

A structured mathematical model of anaerobic conversion of complex organic materials in non-ideally cyclic-batch reactors for biogas production has been developed. The  model is based on multiple-reaction stoichiometry (enzymatic hydrolysis, acidogenesis, acetogenesis and methanogenesis), microbial growth kinetics, conventional material balances in the liquid and gas phases for a cyclic-bat...

The ability to evaluate project proposals, assessing future success, and organizational value is critical to overall business performance for most enterprises. Yet, predicting project success is difficult and often unreliable. A four-year field study shows that the effectiveness of available methods for evaluating and selecting large, complex project depends on the specific project type, org...

backgrounds: bleomycin (blm) has been labeled with radioisotopes and widely used in therapy and diagnosis. in this study blm was labeled with [62zn] zinc chloride for oncologic pet studies. materials and methods: the complex was obtained at the ph=2 in normal saline at 90 ° c in 60 min. radio-tlc showed an overall radiochemical yield of 95-97% (radiochemical purity > 97%). stability of complex ...

In this paper, we introduce the idea of generalized relative order (respectively generalized relative lower order) of entire functions of two complex variables. Hence, we study some growth properties of entire functions of two complex variables on the basis of the definition of generalized relative order and generalized relative lower order of entire functions of two complex variables.

Haptoglobin (Hp) is a mammalian serum glycoprotein showing a genetic polymorphism with three types, 1-1, 2-2 and 1-2. Hp appears to conserve the recycling of heme-iron by forming an essentially irreversible but non-covalent complex with hemoglobin which is released into the plasma by erythrocyte lysis. As an important consequence, Haptoglobin-Hemoglobin complex (Hp-Hb) shows considerable antiox...

In many diseases such as cancer, simultaneous use of two or more pharmacologically active agents will be more effective and have fewer side effects. In this study a new palladium(II) complex with formula of [Pd(phen)(py-dtc)]NO3 (where is phen 1,10-phenanthroline and py-dtc is n-propyldithiocarbamate), was synthesized. The cytotoxic activity of this complex was tested against leukemia K562 cell...

tuberous sclerosis complex (tsc) is an autosomal-dominant hereditary disorder. this syndrome is characterized by tumor-like malformations in several organs, as well as the heart. this report summarizes a case of tsc in a premature infant, born at 34 weeks' gestation with ascites. after birth, multiple cardiac mass, subependymal cysts and hypopigmented macules were detected. to our knowledge, th...
