An analysis of continuum antenna temperatures observed in the Green Bank Telescope (GBT) spectrometer bandpasses is presented for observations toward SgrB2(N-LMH). Since 2004, we have identified four new prebiotic molecules toward this source by means of rotational transitions between low energy levels; concurrently, we have observed significant continuum in GBT spectrometer bandpasses centered...

Purpose. To describe morphology of lamellar hole-associated epiretinal proliferation (LHEP) removed from eyes with lamellar macular holes (LMH). Methods. Based on optical coherence tomography data, 10 specimens of LHEP were removed from 10 eyes with LMH during standard vitrectomy. Specimens were prepared for correlative light and electron microscopy (CLEM) using an immunonanogold particle of 1....

Phenobarbital-responsive DNA elements were identified in the 5'-flanking region of the chicken CYP2H1 gene by in reporter gene assays in a chicken hepatoma cell line (leghorn male hepatoma (LMH)). A 264-base pair (bp) enhancer sequence (phenobarbital-responsive unit (PBRU)) responded to phenobarbital and a variety of phenobarbital-type inducers. Analysis of putative transcription factor binding...

Aerobic operation of an immersed hollow fibre membrane bioreactor, treating municipal wastewater supplemented with molasses solution, has been studied across mixed liquor suspended solids (MLSS) concentrations between 8 and 32 g L(-1), the higher concentrations being normally associated with thickening operations. Only a marginal loss in membrane permeability was noted between 8 and 18 g L(-1) ...

Long-term exposure and inhalation of odorous compounds from poultry manure can be harmful to farm workers and the surrounding residents as well as animals. The aim of the present study was to determine the cytotoxicity and IC50 values of common odorous compounds such as ammonium, dimethylamine, trimethylamine, butyric acid, phenol, and indole in the chick liver hepatocellular carcinoma cell lin...

Traditional designs for phase I clinical trials assign the same dose to patients in the same cohort. In this paper, we present a new class of designs for cancer phase I trials which initially rapidly escalate by allowing multiple doses (usually 3) to be assigned to each cohort of patients. The class of designs, called the LMH-CRM (an extension of the continual reassessment method (CRM) by admin...

We have successfully demonstrated the use of capped carbon dot systems, namely, CDs/ β -cd, CDs/LMH, and CDs/Suc, as fluorescent sensors for the detection of hemin. The capped carbon dot systems showed quenching of PL intensity in the presence of hemin. The minimum detection limit was determined to be ~1 μ M. The PL response with free Fe(II) and Fe(III) was also studied. It was observed that PL...

Purpose: To report a case where lamellar macular hole (LMH) developed following intravitreal injection of aflibercept due to neovascular age-related degeneration (nAMD).
 
 Material and Methods: A 70-year-old man diagnosed with nAMD underwent injections for three consecutive months. At follow up, the resolution subretinal fluid was revealed by optical coherence tomography (OCT), visua...
