Hepatic steatosis and liver degeneration are prominent features of the zebrafish ducttrip (dtp) mutant phenotype. Positional cloning identified a causative mutation in the gene encoding S-adenosylhomocysteine hydrolase (Ahcy). Reduced Ahcy activity in dtp mutants led to elevated levels of S-adenosylhomocysteine (SAH) and, to a lesser degree, of its metabolic precursor S-adenosylmethionine (SAM)...

Because of a paucity of information on the effect of tomato pomace in male chickens, a study was undertaken to determine the influence of dietary inclusion of dried tomato pomace (DTP) on seminal characteristics in Iranian native breeder roosters. Fifty-four roosters (24 wk old) were randomly allotted to 3 treatment groups and received either a basal diet without DTP (T(0)), or a diet containin...

background: despite the efforts to enhance hygiene education and personal hygiene and use of antibiotics and vaccination, infectious diseases remain the second cause of mortality worldwide. vaccination is one of the greatest medical achievements in the prevention of mortality and morbidity, which has decreased treatment costs. this study aimed to compare the complications caused by pentavalent ...

The first dithienylpyrrole (DTP)-based bipyridine ligands has been prepared and coordinated with ruthenium to give the corresponding homoleptic complexes. Bipyridine was bound at pyrrole (DTP(1)) or thiophene (DTP(2)) ring. A strong bathochromic effect was obtained by switching from pyrrole to thiophene for ligands and complexes. Interestingly the DTP(2) series offered a wide absorption window ...

Companion papers show why the CIE L*a*b* system of color coordinates is not optimal for use in desktop publishing (DTP) systems and how ATD remedies most of the problems of CIE L*a*b*. Since DTP deals primarily with the reproduction of images, DTP applications do not need to model human vision. They need only reproduce accurately in the image the reflective properties of the original. The eye d...

The OSI Standards committee (ISO SC21 Working Group 8) has defined the distributed transaction processing (DTP) standards that consist of a reference model, service definitions and protocol specifications. The reference model can be used for defining and building distributed transaction processing systems and applications. X/Open is an industrial standards organisation that has also defined a r...

PurposeThe diphtheria-tetanus-pertussis vaccine (DTP) and oral polio (OPV) were introduced in children 3 of 5 months age 1981–1983 Bandim, the capital Guinea-Bissau. Because DTP has been linked to deleterious nonspecific effects (NSEs) OPV beneficial NSEs, we followed up this cohort years examined with on all-cause mortality interactions measles (MV).MethodsDTP offered at monthly community weig...

In an experiment with 288 laying hens from a commercial strain (Hy-line W36), the effect of partial and total replacement of soybean meal, corn grain, wheat grain and wheat bran with dried tomato pulp (DTP) on performance and egg quality was determined. In the 12 week experiment, hens (27 to 38 weeks of age) were allocated to four dietary treatments being: DTP0, DTP50, DTP100 and DTP150 of 72 b...

Isomeric dicyanovinylene-terminated oligothiophenes 1 and 2 comprising a central dithienopyrrole (DTP) unit have been developed for solution-processed small molecule organic solar cells (SMOSCs) giving the highest power conversion efficiency of 4.8% for DTP-based oligomeric materials.

We evaluated the risks of seizures and other neurological events following diphtheria-tetanus-pertussis (DTP) immunization for 38,171 Tennessee Medicaid children who received 107,154 DTP immunizations in their first 3 years of life. There were 2 children with encephalitis; both had disease onset more than 2 weeks following DTP immunization. There were 277 children who had febrile seizures, 42 w...
