A micro-radioimmunoassay of 125I-labeled digoxin is described in which 10-mul rather than 50-mul aliquots of sera are required. The method is a modification of a simplified, rapid, and accurate procedure, which is commercially available as a kit. There is excellent correlation between results by these two methods, in which lyophilized digoxin standards and insoluble antibody polymer are used. T...

In this paper, we present a new scheme to classify diierent textures. We propose a scheme to use wavelet decomposition with Markov random eld modeling to classify textures which we called mul-tiresolution MRF(MRMRF). The parameters of each Markov random eld models combined with wavelet energy signatures are used as features in texture classiication. The classiier here we use is nearest linear c...

Background: The double heterozygous state of α/β thalassemia may alter the hematological indices and modify the phonotype. In addion, definite characterizaon of co-inheritance of α- and β-thalassemia heterozygous carriers may change the process of genec counseling. Materials and Methods: An Iranian couple with low hematological indices was analyzed for α-globin gene deleons using mulpl...

Buruli ulcer disease is a neglected necrotizing and disabling cutaneous tropical illness caused by Mycobacterium ulcerans (Mul). Fluoroquinolone (FQ), used in the treatment of this disease, has been known to act inhibiting enzymatic activities DNA gyrase; however, detailed molecular basis these characteristics FQ resistance mechanisms Mul remains unknown. In study investigated mechanism gyrase ...

The present article investigates effects of the multi-frequency excitation on the output power of a piezomagnetoelastic energy harvester. The piezomagnetoelastic power generator is assumed to operate in the mono-stable mode. A perturbation technique based on the method of multiple scales is employed to develop an analytical solution to nonlinear differential equations governing the system dynam...

A sensitive micro method for the manual estimation of true glucose in 10 mul plasma by an enzymatic technique is described. Protein precipitation is avoided. The method is simple to perform, accurate and precise. Agreement with a glucose oxidase autoanalyzer method is excellent, even with haemolysed and icteric specimens.

been deliberately omitted from consideration. Of patients who die of malignant lesions, 2 to 4 per cent disclose multiple primary malignant lesions. From reports which do include the lymphomas, it is ap parent that the combination of carcinoma with a lymphosarcoma is extremely rare. Warren and Gates (9) studied 794 cases of mul tiple primary malignant lesions. Ten of these were of carcinoma ass...
