BACKGROUND: Infectious Bovine Rhinotrachitis (IBR) caus-ed by Bovine Herpes Virus-1 (BoHV-1) was first, observed in one of the Tehran Industrial cattle breeders, with importation of cattle in 1965. Later, the isolation of bovine herpes virus approved the existence of the disease in the most of the provinces of the Iran. OBJECTIVES: Presence of antibodies against BoHV-1 was evaluated in young bo...

We report the photoelectron spectra of small IBr-(CO2)n cluster anions (n=0-3). The vibrational state-resolved spectrum of IBr- permits reliable identification of the origins of the excited A' 3Pi2 and A 3Pi1 states of neutral IBr through a high-quality Franck-Condon spectral simulation. As a result, we directly determine several important spectroscopic parameters: the adiabatic electron affini...

In this paper, we develop a system for active image-based rendering (IBR). Active IBR is a framework that is capable of estimating the final rendering quality and capturing the next view at the position where the rendering quality can be improved the most. The result is a nonuniform capturing scheme for IBR. Experimental results on synthetic scenes have shown that active IBR outperforms uniform...

The low sensitivity of the IBR-gE ELISA compared to other diagnostic ELISA tests for IBR is a major disadvantage of IBR control programmes based on IBR marker vaccination. Therefore the IBR-gE ELISA is not generally recommended for testing pooled or bulk milk samples.The aim of this study was to determine the performance of a commercially available kit for concentrating and purifying antibodies...

Background One-stage direct-to-implant immediate breast reconstruction (IBR) is performed simultaneously with breast cancer resection. We explored indications, techniques, and outcomes of IBR to determine its feasibility, safety, and effectiveness. Material and Methods We reviewed the available literature on one-stage direct-to-implant IBR, with or without acellular dermal matrix (ADM), synth...

In this paper we present IBR-DTN, a lightweight, modular and portable Bundle Protocol implementation and DTN daemon. IBR-DTN is especially suited for embedded platforms, which allows to leverage the benefits of a fully compliant Bundle Protocol daemon in cost sensitive distributed sensing applications. We line out IBR-DTN’s extensible software architecture and introduce the modules included in ...

A preliminary study on the seroprevalence of infectious bovine rhinotracheitis (IBR) in different strains of mithun maintained atthe National Research Centre on Mithun, Nagaland, India, revealed that the overall prevalence of IBR in these mithun was 19%. This paper examines the results of that preliminary study. To the knowledge of the authors, this is the first report on the seroprevalence of ...
