Susanne McCabe I fi nd the arguments raised by the PLoS Medicine editors very useful [1] as I had not considered that a scientifi c community would tolerate barring access to registers of trials. It leaves huge gaps for exploitation by privileged groups. It is not only colleagues in research and allied professions who need access but the global community, including members of the public whereve...

Series of mixed metal oxides were synthesized by gel-combustion method and their catalytic activities for soot oxidation were investigated. The catalysts were M-Ce-Zr (M = Mn, Cu, Fe, K, Ba, Sr), and xK-20Mn-Ce-Zr (x = 0, 5, 10, 20), they were characterized by XRD, SEM, TPR and BET surface area techniques. The results of soot temperature programmed oxidation (TPO) in an O2 oxidizing atmosphere ...

Capillary electrophoresis single-strand conformation polymorphism (CE-SSCP) is a promising high-throughput tool for profiling complex bioremediation communities, but has not been well characterized with respect to other methods such as denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE). The purpose of this study was to compare CE-SSCP with DGGE with respect to: 1) overall representation of the comm...

In this extended abstract, we extend recent results of Assaf and McNamara, the skew Pieri rule and the skew Murnaghan-Nakayama rule, to a more general identity, which gives an elegant expansion of the product of a skew Schur function with a quantum power sum function in terms of skew Schur functions. We give two proofs, one completely bijective in the spirit of Assaf-McNamara’s original proof, ...

Based on the concept of health as openness to risk, as outlined by Canguilhem in 1946, the authors seek to distinguish between risks that require social protection networks and those that should be tolerated as part of the human condition. To understand this issue, the article analyzes the historical emergence of the risk concept as viewed in early industrial society and its link to the idea of...
