Within sport ethnography, the term "subculture" has been employed so broadly that the term has lost much of its explanatory powel: In this papel; we attempt to reclaim the explanatorypowers of the concept subculture by differentiating itfrom the concept "subworld. " The paper reviews the theoretical foundations of the concept of subculture and subworld, proposes definitional distinctions, and J...

AIM OF THE STUDY Ibogaine is a naturally occurring psychoactive indole alkaloid that is used to treat substance-related disorders in a global medical subculture, and is of interest as an ethnopharmacological prototype for experimental investigation and possible rational pharmaceutical development. The subculture is also significant for risks due to the lack of clinical and pharmaceutical standa...

Abstract Background Metarhizium species are considered one of the most outstanding powerful biological control agents that have been commercialized as biopesticides against various agricultural pests. Fungal stability with successive in vitro cultivation is a desirable trait for large-scale production fungal biopesticide. Main body The new Egyptian strain anisopliae AUMC 3262 exhibited auspicio...

over the past few years, the subculture of exhibitionist car driving has attracted the attention of any social and cultural researchers in our country. these phenomena have been formed in interaction with general social trends. therefore, the study of these phenomena would facilitate a better understanding of these trends and currents. the present paper is an attempt to study the grounds that c...

In our quest to design and develop more effective natural language processing systems, our user models are becoming more sophisticated. But we have not gone far enough. The notion of a user model can be extended to social groups and subculture to produce group models. In this paper we use ILP techniques to learn interrogative subculture idioms. From those idioms we produce a model of the interr...

Based on existing conceptual work in culture and innovation diffusion theory, a framework is developed to investigate the moderating role of the occupational subculture of information technology personnel on the relationship between knowledge sharing and the IT diffusion process in organizations. We suggest that knowledge sharing between information technology (IT) and business personnel impact...

Cell differentiation degree and mitotic activity were sequentially assessed by immunoperoxidase labeling of glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) and proliferative cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), respectively, in rat brain cultured astrocytes maintained up to 60 days in vitro (DIV) of first subculture, or weekly passaged until their 12th subculture. Cell count was performed through a 0.01 mm2 sec...

An efficient and reproducible procedure was established for direct shoot regeneration of Solanum surattense Bum. using internodal explants. The shoot regeneration efficiency on Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium supplemented with 6benzylaminopurine (BAP) was superior in compared to 6furfurylaminopurine (Kn). The highest mean number of shoots per explant was recorded on MS medium containing 0.5 mgl...

The tissue-factor (thromboplastic) activity of cultured human endothelial cells and fibroblasts is low at time of transfer into fresh medium but increases 3-10 fold. Endothelial cells reach peak activity (400 U/10(5) cells) 5-8 hr after subculture. Activity in fibroblast cultures peaks (3000-12,000 U/10(5) cells) 7-12 hr after subculture. After attaining maximum activity, endothelial and fibrob...

The time-course of expression of dbat and dbtnbt genes involved in the later steps of paclitaxel biosynthesis and the intracellular taxane accumulation were investigated through a 64-day subculture interval of VI/M1 and VI/M2 Taxus baccata callus cultures. HPLC proved traces of baccatin III and an intracellular content of paclitaxel up to 90 microg/g DW. The steady-state of the respective gene ...
