Immune response (Ir) gene products control immunologic function at several critical sites. We administered in vivo a monoclonal antibody reactive with I-Ak to F1 mice with the genotype H-2k/b. These treated mnice made a markedly reduced antibody response to antigen (H,G)-A--L, under the control of I-Ak, but not to antigen (T,G)-A--L, under the control of I-Ab. This relative specificity was lost...

We examined the effects of the developmental milieu on the capacity of B cells to undergo immune response gene-controlled, T cell-dependent polyclonal proliferation. Although I-Aq poly(Glu60 Ala30 Tyr10)n (GAT)-nonresponder T cells developing in a responder environment become phenotypic GAT-responders, I-Aq B cells remain unresponsive to GAT, even after maturation in a GAT-responder animal. Con...

objective: the use of hema as a biocompatible material in dentin bonding systems and its potential for clinical applications has been well established. excess water can affect conversion of bonding resins. the aim of this study was to survey the effect of water on the degree of conversion of hema by fourier transform infra-red spectroscopy (ft-ir). materials and methods: in this experimental st...

the southeastern part of turkey is quite rich, fertile and mature in terms of hydrocarbonseepages. while the use of the related sources meet the energy demand, it damages the environment and humanhealth. in this study, several geochemical methods were applied to analyze the hydrocarbon sepage samplesobtained from seven towns in the province of adiyaman where is very close to the oil production ...

{ 15 { codewords. If any of the strings supplied by P k fails a multilinearity test, then V accepts P 3?k 's claim about whether or not w 2 L. It remains to show how V can test equality of two functions that are both 1=4-close to multilinear polynomials in K n X 1 ; : : :; X n ]. This can also be done using a well-known fact about polynomials. Schwartz's Lemma Sc80]: Two distinct polynomials in...
