Absolute rate coefficients for the title reaction, HO + HOCH(2)C(O)CH(3)--> products (R1) were measured over the temperature range 233-363 K using the technique of pulsed laser photolytic generation of the HO radical coupled to detection by pulsed laser induced fluorescence. The rate coefficient displays a slight negative temperature dependence, which is described by: k(1)(233-363 K) = (2.15 +/...

The bacterial origins of DNA replication have been isolated from Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Pseudomonas putida. These origins comprise a second class of bacterial origins distinct from enteric-type origins: both origins function in both Pseudomonas species, and neither functions in Escherichia coli; enteric origins do not function in either pseudomonad. Both cloned sequences hybridize to chromo...

The compound eye of the butterfly Papilio xuthus consists of three different types of ommatidia, each containing nine photoreceptor cells (R1-R9). We have found previously that the R5-R8 photoreceptors of type II ommatidia coexpress two different mRNAs, encoding opsins of green- and orange-red-absorbing visual pigments (Kitamoto et al., 1998). Do these cells contain two functionally distinct vi...

A new heterotrophic flagellate (Andalucia godoyi n. gen. n. sp.) is described from soil. Earlier preliminary 18S rRNA analyses had indicated a relationship with the phylogenetically difficult-to-place jakobid Jakoba incarcerata. Andalucia godoyi is a small (3-5 mum) biflagellated cell with a ventral feeding groove. It has tubular mitochondrial cristae. There are two major microtubular roots (R1...

This study aimed to compare local dairy farmer ration formula with national research council in producing higher feed efficiency and milk production. This study had two stages. The first stage was in vitro study of dairy farmer rations which have different raw materials (R3, R4, and R5) with NRC based ration (R2) and Demo Farm ration (R1). The variables measured in this stage were proximate com...

A new and simple method has been developed for the preparation of -methylene cyclopentenones and presently provides the most convenient route to sarkomycin. The work has, in addition, led to a better understanding of the vinylogous Dieckmann condensation, the course of Michael addition to -methylene cyclopentenones and the behavior of cyclopentenoid endocyclic and exocyclic dienolates towards e...

Retinoic acid (RA) generated by Raldh2 in paraxial mesoderm is required for specification of the posterior hindbrain, including restriction of Hoxb1 expression to presumptive rhombomere 4 (r4). Hoxb1 expression requires 3' and 5' RA response elements for widespread induction up to r4 and for r3/r5 repression, but RA has previously been detected only from r5-r8, and vHnf1 is required for repress...

sesame oil cake (ssc) was bio-processed through solid state fermentation (ssf) under optimized conditions by a phytase-producing fish gut bacterium, bacillus subtilis subsp. subtilis (jx292128). ssf significantly reduced anti-nutritional factors (e.g., phytic acid, tannins and trypsin inhibitor) and crude fibre, while enhanced free amino acids, fatty acids and different minerals. phytase product...

Soybean is one of the important food commodities in Indonesia which occupies third position after rice and corn. In 2020, soybean production reached 632.3 tons but decreased by 3.01% to 613.3 2021 predicted continue decline until 2024. Whitefly (Bemisia tabaci) pests on soybeans. also a viral vector. The purpose this study was obtain refugia plants were effective suppressing whitefly pest popul...

This research aimed to develop an online program for the development of teachers' skills enhance students' adaptability. The materials consisted teacher's learning manuals and teacher guidelines student development. Based on Research Development (R&D) methodology, implication R1&D1 R4&D4 steps, six sets manuals, one workshop manual were obtained. Then R5&D5, group pretest-postte...
