489 Vol. 7, No. 3, May–June 2001 Emerging Infectious Diseases of serious gram-positive infections in humans (with no animal use counterparts) are in the pharmaceutical pipeline (e.g., LY333328 and daptomycin) or have recently been approved (e.g., linezolid). We hope that a fair balance can be achieved by the human medical and the animal health and production communities with regard to the types...

Since 1999, several BL Lac objects, such as PKS 2155–304 (z=0.116) and PKS 2005–489 (z=0.072) have been observed with the CANGAROO-II imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescope. We obtained flux upper limits for these objects. Here we present the results of our observations of these objects, particularly those observed since 2000, and discuss the implications for the emission models and the absorp...

OBJECTIVE To determine the mechanism of rifampicin resistance in Streptococcus pneumoniae in Taiwan. METHODS Rifampicin resistance was investigated with respect to the rpoB gene in 23 invasive S. pneumoniae isolates collected from 1996 to 2001. PCR and molecular typing were used for genetic and epidemiological analyses. Transformation was used to determine the functional gene for resistance. ...

Many variations exist of yield curve modeling based on the exponential components framework, but most do not consider the generating process of the error term. In this paper, we propose a method of yield curve estimation using an instantaneous error term generated with a standard Brownian motion. First, we add an instantaneous error term to Nelson and Siegel’s instantaneous forward rate model [...
