the present study aimed to evaluate the antibiotic resistance pattern of escherichia coli strains isolatedfrom animals to ascertain the levels of antibiotic resistance pervasiveness. a total of 28 e. coli strains wereisolated from faecal samples and the antibiotic resistance pattern of e. coli strains was determined by meansof disc diffusion assay. the resistance pattern determined for all stra...

A new technique of microinterferometry permits cellular growth and motile dynamics to be studied simultaneously in living cells. In isolated chick heart fibroblasts, we have found that the non-aqueous mass of each cell tends to increase steadily, with minor fluctuations, throughout the cell cycle. The spread area of each cell also tends to increase during interphase but fluctuates between wide ...

Uveal melanoma (UM) continues to be associated with a high mortality rate of up to 50% due to metastatic spread primarily to the liver. Currently there are relatively effective treatments for the primary tumor, though the management of the metastatic disease remains inadequate. Conventional diagnostic tools have a low sensitivity for detecting metastasis, and early detection of metastatic sprea...

The number of microblogs’ user is growing rapidly with the increase of spam. Firstly, we give microblog a formal definition, and then divide spam into two types: news and advertisements. We collect 1,760,314 items of 188MB microblog news to complete the process of content mining. Using ROST Content Mining, we work on topology macro statistics, time series mining, and so on. We find that the gro...

We consider initial timing acquisition in DS-CDMA when propagation is affected by multipath and fading and where the base-station broadcasts a synchronization pilot signal in the form of bursts of modulated chips transmitted periodically and separated by long silent intervals. Subject to certain simplifying assumptions we derive the maximum likelihood (ML) estimator by solving a constrained max...

Current changes in the tropical hydrological cycle, including water vapour and precipitation, are presented over the period 1979-2008 based on a diverse suite of observational datasets and atmosphere-only climate models. Models capture the observed variability in tropical moisture while reanalyses cannot. Observed variability in precipitation is highly dependent upon the satellite instruments e...

The ease of reproduction, distribution, and manipulation of digital documents creates problems for authorized parties that wish to prevent illegal use of such document. To this end, digital watermarking has been proposed as a last line of defense. A digital watermark is an imperceptible, robust, secure message embedded directly into a document. The watermark is imperceptible both perceptually a...

A specific form of the Mellin transform, referred to as the “scale transform,” is known to be a natural complement to the Fourier transform for wideband analytic signals. In this paper, limitations for the simultaneous localization of scale transform pairs are investigated. A number of inequalities are established and discussed, based on various measures of spread (Heisenberg-type inequalities ...

A spread of lines is a set of lines of P G(n, q), which partition the point set. A parallelism is a partition of the set of lines by spreads. A parallelism in P G(n, q) is point-cyclic if it has an automorphism group which acts as a Singer automorphism. In P G(3, 7) no point-cyclic parallelisms have been known. We claim that such do not exist. 1. Introduction. Parallelisms of projective spaces ...

Disseminated tuberculosis (TB) is a contagious bacterial infection that has spread from the lungs to other parts of the body through the blood or lymph system. TB remains one of the world’s leading infectious causes of death among adults. TB most commonly affects the lungs but also can involve almost any organ of the body [2]. Because of that, we conduct this study in order to better understand...
