Phycobiliproteins have been used as a natural dye, an analytical probe for fluorescence studies, and chemical medicinal use. An ultrafiltration membrane is useful the purification of phycobiliproteins. This study addressed phycobiliprotein-containing solution, extracted from Nostoc commune , which was individually performed by two kinds (MWCO 150 kDa 10 kDa) in cross-flow. Three proteins were m...

The thymus is the site of considerable cell proliferation and turnover (1-3). Virtually all lymphoid cells in the organ can be labeled after 3-4 d of exposure to tritiated thymidine. It is striking, therefore, that the small cells forming the dominant population are themselves inactive in DNA synthesis. Proliferation takes place only in a minority class of large and medium-sized lymphoblasts, w...

CMHC then contracted with 10 consulting firms to gather data from apartment buildings across the country. Construction dates of the buildings range from 1920 to 1993.The buildings are from six to 26 storeys in height and from 3,345 m to 26,795 m in size, with a total of 27 to 400 suites per building. The buildings are located in the West Coast, Prairie, Central and Atlantic regions of the count...

Malaria serology through assaying for IgG against Plasmodium spp. antigens provides evidence into the infection history for an individual. The multiplex bead assay (MBA) allows for detection of IgG against multiple Plasmodium spp., and can be especially useful in many regions where Plasmodium falciparum is of primary clinical focus, but other species are co-endemic. Dried blood spots were colle...

Feces from 142 animals were collected on 15 farms in the region of Brittany, France. Each sample was directly collected from the rectum of the animal and identified with the ear tag number. Animals were sampled three times, at 5, 15 and 22 weeks of age. After DNA extraction from stool samples, nested PCR was performed to amplify partial 18S-rDNA and 60 kDa glycoprotein genes of Cryptosporidium....
