the objective of our study was to explain the histopathological changes of monodon baculovirus (mbv) in hepatopancreas and midgut tissues of the cultured penaeus vannamei. five-hundred and forty juvenile of p. vannamei with average size of 7.99±0.54 g and 3600 post larvae 10-15 were distributed to 18 glass aquariums (50×50×60cm) with 100l well aerated water per each aquarium as water borne mbv ...

American Angus Association (AAA) has collected data for genetic evaluation of marbling (MRB), longissimus muscle area (LMA), subcutaneous fat depth (SQF), and carcass weight (CWT) since 1974 (Wilson et al., 1993). In 1997, that genetic evaluation was augmented with a separate evaluation of ultrasound indicator traits measured on yearling bulls and heifers. These data are now analyzed simultaneo...

Two opposing theories have been proposed to explain competitive advantage of firms. First, the market-based view (MBV) is focused on product or market positions and competition while second, the resource-based view (RBV) aims at explaining success by inwardly looking at unique resources and capabilities of a firm. Research has been struggling to distinguish impacts of these theories for illumin...

Ensemble forecasts with 101 members, including one ensemble mean, using Kalman filter analysis were performed to understand the atmospheric conditions favorable for development of a meso-β-scale vortex (MBV) that caused shipwrecks as result sudden gusty winds in southwestern part Sea Japan on 1 September 2015. A composite was conducted reveal differences structure MBV and around between stronge...

BACKGROUND Mitral balloon valvuloplasty (MBV) is the therapy of choice for the treatment of symptomatic mitral stenosis with suitable anatomy. Although its short and mid-term results are favorable, there is a paucity of information about long-term follow-up. AIM To assess the late results of MBV. MATERIAL AND METHODS A cohort of 225 patients aged 8 to 20 years who were subjected to a MBV fr...

Cattle body composition is difficult to model because several factors affect the composition of the average daily gain (ADG) of growing animals. The objective of this study was to identify commercial single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) panels that could improve the predictability of days on feed (DOF) to reach a target United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) grade given animal, diet, an...

Vascular endothelium regulates vascular tone and tissue perfusion in response to various physiological and pathological stimuli. Insulin and meal feeding increase microvascular perfusion and thus oxygen, nutrient, and hormone delivery to human skeletal muscle. Meal feeding also increases cardiac microvascular perfusion in healthy humans. To examine whether insulin at physiological concentration...

Purpose: Mixed bacterial vaccine (MBV, Coley’s toxins) is a historical, vaguely defined preparation of heat-inactivated Streptococcus pyogenes and Serratia marcescens used as nonspecific immunotherapy in the treatment of cancer. The mechanism of action is suspected to have an immunologic basis, yet it is poorly defined up to now. We developed a new, biochemically well defined and current good m...

Feed intake and efficiency are economically important traits because feed is the greatest variable cost in beef production. Feed efficiency can be measured as residual feed intake (RFI), which is the difference between actual DMI of an animal and the expected DMI based on its BW and growth rate. Feed conversion ratio (FCR) is the inverse of gross feed efficiency and is the ratio of DMI to ADG. ...

Background In stable coronary artery disease (CAD), accurate ischemia detection enables targeted revascularization, which improves clinical outcomes. Myocardial blood volume (MBV) may be a better ischemia marker than myocardial blood flow. Adenosine stress and rest T1-mapping is a novel gadolinium-free CMR technique that reflects changes in MBV through its water content. We hypothesized that di...
