We report recent measurements of the CKM angle α using data collected by the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy e + e − collider at the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory. In addition to improved constraints on α from the decays B ± → ρ ± ρ 0 , we also present preliminary results of neutral and charged B meson decays to K 1 (1270)π and K 1 (1400)π and its impact on the estimate fo...

This analysis used the system suitability test, developed on an Agilent 1200 Series LC system to test whether the Agilent 1220 and Agilent 1260 Infinity LC systems fulfilled the acceptance criteria. The chromatographic conditions of the system suitability test transferred to the Agilent 1260 and Agilent 1220 Infinity LC systems without changes. The results obtained were compared for compliance ...

objective: the aim of this in vitro study was to compare the coronal microleakage between streptococcus sanguis per se and a mixture suspension of e. faecalis and c. albicans in root canals filled with gutta-percha and either ah 26 or ah plus sealer. materials and methods: one-hundred and ten extracted human teeth were decoronated to a standardized root length of 14 mm and prepared using mtwo n...

The long term performance characteristics of the 2400 and 1260 series of Starr-Edwards aortic prostheses were investigated by a follow up study of clinical outcome of 327 patients discharged from hospital with isolated aortic valve replacement. Follow up lasted for up to 10 years and was based on 1616 patient-years. The 2400 series cloth covered tracked valve was implanted in 182 patients from ...
