Aplikácia simulačných modelov pre optimalizáciu zložení uholných zmesí V prostrediu trhovej ekonomiky sú kladené zvlášť vysoké požiadavky na riadenie výrobných technológií v oblasti uholných hlbinných baní (ťažba, odťaženie, apod.) z hľadiska dosiahnutia čo najlepších ekonomických parametrov ( produktivita práce, zisk, rentabilita). Jednou z možností ich zlepšení je aj užitie metód selektívnej ...

An investigation of Vemo Herb® additive on the forage consumption rate in Japanese quail (Pharaoh breed) has been conducted. The experiment was carried out for 10 weeks with 52 female and 16 male sexually matured Japanese quails (Coturnix coturnix japonica) distributed in four groups: control group (without additive), first experimental group 4 mg*kg of live weight for 10 weeks; second experime...

Red blood cell Li-Na countertransport and Na-K cotransport activities, home blood pressure, invasive systemic hemodynamics, and limb venous compliance were measured in 65 white men (23 normotensive, 22 borderline hypertensive, and 20 mild essential hypertensive subjects). Li-Na countertransport activity was positively and significantly correlated with subject-determined home systolic blood pres...

The East Lau Spreading Center (ELSC) and Valu Fa Ridge (VFR) comprise a ridge segment in the southwest Pacific Ocean where rapid transitions in the underlying mantle chemistry manifest themselves as gradients in seafloor rock geochemistry. We studied the geology and microbial diversity of three silicate rock samples and three inactive sulfide chimney samples collected, from north to south, at t...

vacuolar h+-translocation pyrophosphatase (v-ppase) and na+/h+ antiporter (v-na+/h+) are important transporters in plant cells and have essential roles against abiotic stresses. in this study, the effects of salt stress were surveyed on the transcription of v-ppase pump and na+/h+ antiporter genes at early times of nacl treatment in roots of halophytic grass leptochloa fusca through the real ti...

thermal behavior of various solid feldspars are different, namely those of bivalent cations show no change in the distribution of al and si atoms, whereas feldspars of univalent cations become more disordered with raising temperature. in the latter case al atoms migrate from the sites they occupe at low temperatures and interchange positions with the si atoms. at high temperatures (but still be...

The Kırka borate deposit (Miocene), in western Turkey, the most important B2O3 producer at present in the world, exhibits a symmetrical zonation in a lateral sense; it is comprised of: a central body of Na borate (borax), an intermediate zone of Na–Ca borate (ulexite), and a marginal zone of Ca borate (colemanite). This mineral zonation is also developed in a vertical sense, although it is some...

Comparing the questions -proposed for this discourse panel with those identified for the TINLAP-2 panel eight years ago, it becomes clear that some progress has been made in discourse studies. While TINLAP-2's questions seem concerned with identifying an ideal model of discourse (e.g., what constitutes an appropriate model of discourse, how domain-dependent must such models be, what makes disco...

Three hyperthermophilic sulfur-dependent heterotrophs were isolated from a shallow submarine hydrothermal system at an inlet of Kodakara-jima island, Kagoshima, Japan. The isolates grew at 60 to 97 degrees C, with the optimum temperatures at 85 to 90 degrees C. Sensitivity to rifampin and the existence of ether lipids indicated that the isolates are hyperthermophilic archaea. Partial sequencing...

Polyphosphate, a linear polymer of inorganic phosphate, is secreted by activated platelets and accumulates in many infectious microorganisms. We recently showed that polyphosphate modulates the blood coagulation cascade at 3 steps: it triggers the contact pathway, it accelerates factor V activation, and it enhances fibrin polymerization. We now report that polyphosphate exerts differential effe...
