introduction: the main objective of the present study was to investigate the effect of preceding pictorial stimulus on the emotional autonomic responses of the subsequent one. methods: to this effect, physiological signals, including electrocardiogram (ecg), pulse rate (pr), and galvanic skin response (gsr) were collected. as these signals have random and chaotic nature, nonlinear dynamics of t...

Iron(III)-reducing bacteria have been demonstrated to rapidly catalyze the reduction and immobilization of uranium(VI) from contaminated subsurface sediments. Thus, these organisms may aid in the development of bioremediation strategies for uranium contamination, which is prevalent in acidic subsurface sediments at U.S. government facilities. Iron(III)-reducing enrichment cultures were initiate...

listeria monocytogenes can cause serious infection and recently, relapse of listeriosis has been reported in leukemia and colorectal cancer, and the patients with klebsiella pneumoniae are at increased risk of colorectal cancer. translation initiation codon recognition is basically mediated by shine-dalgarno (sd) and the anti-sd sequences at the small ribosomal rna (ssu rrna). in this research,...

We provide a dynamical proof of the van der Corput inequality for sequences in Hilbert spaces that is based on Furstenberg correspondence principle. This done by reducing to mean ergodic theorem contractions spaces. The key difficulty therein principle is, priori, limited scalar-valued sequences. We, therefore, discuss how interpreting via Gelfand–Naimark–Segal construction C∗-algebras allows s...

Exploring DNA and protein evolution is very basic research. Here, 60 sets of invertebrate mitochondria were selected; whose entire genome sequences, protein-coding DNA and proteins sequences evolution were studied. The results were interesting. For the whole mitochondrial genome evolution, the AT content is increasing and GC is reducing during the life evolution going. The net ratio of AT conte...

This study examined the natural diversity and distributions of sulfate-reducing bacteria along a natural carbon gradient extending down the shelf-slope transition zone of the eastern Pacific continental margin. Dissimilatory (bi)sulfite reductase gene sequences (dsrAB) were PCR amplified and cloned from five different sampling sites, each at a discrete depth, from two different margin systems, ...

A quantitative real-time PCR assay targeting the pcrA gene, encoding the catalytic subunit of perchlorate reductase, detected pcrA genes from perchlorate-reducing bacteria in three different genera and from soil microbial communities. Partial pcrA sequences indicated differences in the composition of perchlorate-reducing bacterial communities following exposure to different electron donors.

A method for the reduction of power dissipation during testing of sequential circuits is presented. In this algorithm from an initial set of test sequences a set of subsequences is properly selected with the purpose of reducing the power consumption without reducing the initial fault coverage. The selection process is accelerated by exploiting the presence of essential sequences and enhanced by...
