Cytochemical tests for several marker enzymes were applied to liver tissue and to the three Golgi fractions (GF(1), GF(2), GF(3)) separated by the procedure of Ehrenreich et al. from liver homogenates of alcohol-treated rats. 5'-Nucleotidase (AMPase) reaction product was found in all three fractions but in different locations: It occurred along the inside of the membrane of VLDL-filled vacuoles...

The matroids that are representable over GF (3) and some other fields depend on the choice of field. This paper gives matrix characterisations of the classes that arise. These characterisations are analogues of the characterisation of regular matroids as the ones that can be represented over the rationals by a totally-unimodular matrix. Some consequences of the theory are as follows. A matroid ...

Despite tremendous growth in the consumption of gluten-free (GF) foods, there is a lack of evaluation of their nutritional profile and how they compare with non-GF foods. The present study evaluated the nutritional quality of GF and non-GF foods in core food groups, and a wide range of discretionary products in Australian supermarkets. Nutritional information on the Nutrition Information Panel ...

OBJECTIVE To compare hysteresis, activation and deactivation forces produced by first-order deformation of Contour 0.014-in NiTi wire (Aditek, Brazil) in four brands of self-ligating brackets: Damon MX, Easy Clip, Smart Clip and In-Ovation. METHODS Activation and deactivation forces were measured in an Instron universal tensile machine at 3 mm/minute speed to a total displacement of 4 mm. Tes...

General fluid-type intelligence (gF) reflects abstract reasoning and problem solving abilities, and is an important predictor for lifetime trajectories of cognition, and physical and mental health. Structural and functional neuroimaging studies have demonstrated the role of parieto-frontal gray matter, but the white matter (WM) underpinnings of gF and the contribution of individual gF component...

A matroid is GF(q)-regular if it is representable over all proper superfields of the field GF(q). We show that, for highly connected matroids having a large projective geometry over GF(q) as a minor, the property of GF(q)-regularity is equivalent to representability over both GF(q) and GF(q) for some odd integer t ≥ 3. We do this by means of an exact structural description of

In this study, the influence of different weight percentages of glass fiber (GF) reinforcement on the mechanical properties of nylon (PA6) composite is investigated. Test specimens of pure nylon, 95% nylon + 5% GF, 90% nylon + 10% GF, 85% nylon + 15% GF and 80% nylon + 20% GF are prepared using an injection molding machine. In the experiments, tensile tests and impact tests are carried out. The...

Masking schemes to secure AES implementations against side-channel attacks is a topic of ongoing research. The most sensitive part of the AES is the nonlinear SubBytes operation, in particular, the inversion in GF(2), the Galois field of 2 elements. In hardware implementations, it is well known that the use of the tower of extensions GF(2) ⇢ GF(2) ⇢ GF(2) ⇢ GF(2) leads to a more efficient inver...
