In this paper, we assess the capability of Landsat Thematic Mapper (TM) for oakwood crown closure estimation in Tulare County, California. Measurements made from orthorectified aerial photographs for the same area were used as a reference. The linear relationship between crown closure and digital values of each band of the TM image was examined. TM Band 3 had the highest correlation (r=−0.828; ...

BACKGROUND Drug-resistant Acinetobacter species are problematic in tertiary-care hospitals. We describe the epidemiology, resistance patterns, and outcomes of older adults with Acinetobacter infection in community hospitals.

General chemical synthesis methods. Anhydrous solvents were obtained commercially. Solvents required for oxime ligation coupling reactions were distilled from 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine immediately prior to use. Air-sensitive reactions were carried out under Ar. Thin layer chromatography (TLC) was performed on aluminium sheets coated with 60 F254 silica. Flash column chromatography was performe...

19 Fluoroquinolones are among the drugs of choice for treatment of salmonella infections. However, 20 fluroquinolone resistance is increasing in salmonella due to chromosomal mutations in the quinolone 21 resistance-determining region (QRDR) of the topoisomerase genes gyrA, gyrB, parC and parE and/or plasmid22 mediated quinolone resistance (PMQR) mechanisms including qnr variants, aac(6’)-Ib-cr...
