This article presents the examination of the possibility that group Eg' F21 operates on a symmetric design with parameters (133,33,8) as its automorphism group. The method based on coset enumeration in group is used.

AIM OF THE STUDY Typhonium flagelliforme (Lodd.) Blume (Araceae) is a Malaysian plant used locally to combat cancer. In order to evaluate its antiproliferative activity in vitro and to possibly identify the active chemical constituents, a bioactivity guided study was conducted on the extracts of this plant. MATERIALS AND METHODS The active extracts of Typhonium flagelliforme were fractionated...

Using a three-sector general equilibrium model with non-traded goods, we investigate the impact of foreign direct investment on the real wages of skilled and unskilled workers. We show that foreign direct investment increases the real wages of skilled and unskilled workers, but widens the gap between the two under plausible conditions. JEL: F10, F11, F21

In the United States, turkey production contributes approximately $14.4 billion to the US economy; however, the number of reagents specifically developed to study the immune system of this economically important species is limited. To compensate for this, laboratories focused on the turkey system have each empirically tested various chicken-specific reagents for cross-reactivity with turkeys. T...

We used mark-recapture methods to estimate age-specific apparent survival rates for male Lesser Prairie-Chickens (Tympanuchus pallidicinctus), a gamebird of conservation concern. A total of 311 male prairie-chickens (135 yearlings, 176 adults) were captured and banded during a 5-year study in southwest Kansas. Time-since-marking models were used to estimate apparent survival after first capture...

The n factor of Staphylococcus aureus (Haukenes and Oeding, Acta Pathol. Microbiol. Scand. 49:237, 1960) was originally demonstrated as a component of the old "e" factor of Oeding. Methods were described for preparing specific antiserum for n factor by use of serum for Cowan III (serotype abcn) and adsorption with strains F21 (baim) and 2095 (abc). Haukenes and Oeding (personal communication) u...

This paper is aimed at analyzing the interrelation between Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) and Energy Consumption (EC) in Mexico during period 1970-2014. To do that, we carry out a cointegration test Granger causality analysis. The empirical results from show stable link growth rates of FDI EC long run. While Granger’s that short run there unidirectional rate toward EC, while medium bidirection...

Abstract AIMS The quantitative evaluation of gliomas using the VASARI MRI feature sets aims to facilitate consistent radiological reporting but rarely done in clinical practice due user variability addition technical and time constraints. We questioned whether deep-learning driven systems for automated derivation might resolve these issues, with comparison neuroradiologist ground truths. METHOD...

This paper studies the role of business and social networks in international investment by examining the effects of ethnic Chinese networks on foreign direct investment (FDI) in China. After controlling for a variety of economic determinants of FDI, this study finds a significant positive role in inward FDI of ethnic Chinese networks proxied by the population share of ethnic Chinese in the inve...

This paper investigates the role of structural reforms – privatization, financial reform and trade liberalization– as determinants of FDI inflows based on newly constructed dataset on structural reforms for 19 Latin American and 25 Eastern European countries between 1989 and 2004. Our main finding is a strong empirical relationship from reforms to FDI, in particular, from financial liberalizati...
