An activity-guided fractionation method was used to isolate anticancer components from Nuruk (Rhizopus oryzae KSD-815:KSD-815). Dried powder of KSD-815 was extracted with 80% methanol and partitioned successively using nhexane, ethyl acetate, n-butanol, and water. The n-hexane and n-butanol fractions showed a strong antimigratory effect on human cancer cells. Both of these fractions were subjec...

Field-scale dispersion of a conservative tracer is primarily the result of smallto intermediate-scale advective processes resulting from natural heterogeneities rather than pore-scale hydrodynamic dispersion (Guven et al. 1992). Fully incorporating physical heterogeneity into a field-scale model is extremely challenging because subsurface variability is pervasive, being present from pore-scale ...

A traditional view of the nature of species holds that populations within species maintain genetic cohesion through substantial intraspecific gene flow and that the whole genome of a species is protected from interspecific gene flow by strong reproductive isolation. Both aspects of this view have been challenged. Reproductive barriers between recently evolved species can be incomplete and perme...

Passive administration of anti-P-814 isoantiserum (IS) with P-815 mastocytoma was shown to augment the development of T-lymphocyte-mediated cytotoxicity (LMC). The LMC activity augmented by IS was specific to immunizing tumor cells, but required the simultaneous administration of P-815 tumor cells and anti-P-815 serum, suggesting that the antigen-antibody complex is involved in the development ...
