Three "blood substitutes," a diaspirin cross-linked human hemoglobin (DBBF-Hb), a bovine polymerized hemoglobin (PolyHbBv), and a human polymerized hemoglobin (O-R-PolyHbA(0)), that have undergone clinical trials are used in this study. Previously, we showed in the rat that coadministration of sodium selenite (Na(2)SeO(3)) and DBBF-Hb significantly decreased mesenteric venular leakage and epith...

Synchronous endometrial and ovarian (SEO) carcinomas involve endometrioid neoplasms in both the ovary and uterus at the time of diagnosis. Patients were traditionally classified as having independent primary SEO lesions or as having metastatic endometrioid carcinoma. Recent studies have supported that SEO tumors result from the dissemination of cells from one organ site to another. However, whe...

The sieve element occlusion (SEO) gene family originally was delimited to genes encoding structural components of forisomes, which are specialized crystalloid phloem proteins found solely in the Fabaceae. More recently, SEO genes discovered in various non-Fabaceae plants were proposed to encode the common phloem proteins (P-proteins) that plug sieve plates after wounding. We carried out a compr...

The metabolism of (75)Se-labeled SeO(3) (2-) and its conversion by intact rat erythrocytes in vitro to a form which complexes with Cd and plasma proteins were studied. By utilizing both excess SeO(3) (2-) and N-ethylmaleimide to lower erythrocyte reduced glutathione (GSH) concentrations, it was shown that the uptake and metabolism of SeO(3) (2-) were GSH-dependent, the probable intermediate bei...

Buyers using search engines to look for information tend to trust and follow links displayed in the editorial section of the search-results page. Most on-line sellers, however, do not invest in search engine optimization (SEO) to get higher search-results rankings for their listings, but instead prefer paid placements. They explain that SEO is more expensive than paid placements, produces resul...

The popularity of long-tail search engine optimization (SEO) brings with new security challenges: incidents of long-tail keyword poisoning to lower competition and increase revenue have been reported. The emergence of cloud web hosting services provides a new and effective platform for longtail SEO spam attacks. There is growing evidence that largescale long-tail SEO campaigns are being carried...

The added-value of search engines is, apparently, undoubted. Their rapid evolution over the last decade has transformed them into the most important source of information and knowledge. From the end user side, search engine success implies correct results in fast and accurate manner, while also ranking of search results on a given query has to be directly correlated to the user anticipated resp...

the aim of this study was to assess the effect of several doses of spearmint essential oil (seo; 0, 250, 500, 750 or 1,000 µg ml-1 buffered rumen fluid) on the fermentation kinetic and digestibility using in vitro gas production technique. a total mixed ration (30% roughage: 70% concentrate) was incubated with buffered rumen fluid. in vitro gas production, asymptotic gas production (a), rate of...

A Web site that wants to increase its number of visitors can pay for search engine ads or attempt to improve its natural search engine ranking. Nobody really knows, which, if either, of these methods provides a positive return on investment (ROI). A search engine optimization (SEO) project was undertaken at a new e-commerce site. The site’s search engine rankings and traffic were measured after...
