In the technical field, potential energy of gas under pressure is converted into mechanical kinetic by means special complex channels. Leaf stomata perform a similar function in plant leaves. The shape leaf channels much more sophisticated compared to flow transformation production facilities. There biological prototype heat engine leaf, where convert thermal with change temperature. paper pres...

Recombinant adenovirus (rAd), deleted of critical genes that enable viral replication and replaced with genes encoding heterologous proteins, has been shown to be a safe and effective vector in gene therapy studies. To evaluate a potential role for rAd as an immunogen, we used two different replication-defective type 2 rAds encoding the model Ag, beta-galactosidase (beta-gal). To determine whet...

The v=1-->0 radiative lifetime of NH(X(3)Sigma(-),v=1,N=0) is determined to be tau_(rad,exp.)=37.0+/-0.5_(stat)+2.0/-0.8_(syst) ms, corresponding to a transition dipole moment of |mu_(10)|=0.0540_(-0.0018)(+0.0009) D. To achieve sufficiently long observation times, NH(X;{3}Sigma;{-},v=1) radicals are magnetically trapped using helium buffer-gas loading. The rate constant for background helium-i...

Between 1972 and 1974, Childrens Cancer Study Group enrolled 724 children with newly diagnosed acute lymphoblastic leukemia on a single randomized clinical trial. Study CCG-101 was designed to test four types of presymptomatic central nervous system and sanctuary therapies consisting of (a) 2400-rad craniospinal radiation therapy (RT) plus 1200-rad extended-field RT, which included the liver, s...

A borehole tiltmeter with a sensitivity of a few nanoradians is described. It is composed of two orthogonal horizontal pendulums with free periods of 1 s. The pendulums are insensitive to barometric pressure fluctuations, and the measured temperature coefficient is less than 30 nrad/°C. The range of the pendulums is about ±5 μ rad, and their response is linear within 1% and stable over several ...

Solving the stability region in plane motion of vehicles has become a hot research topic vehicle handling under extreme conditions, but there is still lack on steering and braking conditions. In this paper, five-degree-of-freedom (5DOF) nonlinear dynamic model with torque introduced established, transformed into an equivalent system by using D’Alembert principle. Then, equilibrium points are so...

Influenza vaccines that target the highly variable surface glycoproteins hemagglutinin and neuraminidase cause inconvenience of having vaccination every year. For this reason, development of universal vaccines targeting conserved viral components is needed. In this study, we generated recombinant adenovirus (rAd) vaccine encoding nucleoprotein (NP) of A/PR/8/34 influenza virus, designated rAd/N...

Rad prikazuje nove trendove u kamping turizmu Hrvatske i svijeta. Nakon povijesnog pregleda razvoja glamping turizma, naglasak je na stanju Hrvatske. Analizom postojeće znanstvene stručne literature iznosi se pregled dosadašnjih istraživanja turizma te problemi s kojima istraživači susreću. U završnom dijelu rada predviđanjima znanstvenika o budućnosti turizma. Metode korištene kroz rad su: met...
