Abstract: The specific rate of breakage is one of the most important factors in evaluation of grinding process especially in ball mill. In this article the effect of ball size and feed size on selection function were investigated using batch grinding circuit on two-iron ore anomaly (B, C) from sangan mine in north of Iran. Eight different monosize fractions were prepared between 2000 and 50...

The mining of outliers (or anomaly detection) in large databases continues to remain an active area of research with many potential applications. Over the last several years many novel methods have been proposed to efficiently and accurately mine for outliers. In this paper we propose a unique approach to mine for sequential outliers using Probabilistic Suffix Trees (PST). The key insight that ...

Activation of plasminogen through surface-mediated reactions is well recognized. In the presence of kaolin, purified Hageman factor (Factor XII) changed plasminogen to plasmin, as assayed upon a synthetic amide substrate and by fibrinolysis. Kinetic studies suggested an enzymatic action of Hageman factor upon its substrate, plasminogen. Hageman factor fragments, at a protein concentration equiv...

Two lines of evidence suggest that the high molecular weight activator of prekallikrein (large activator) (BAGDASARIAN, A., TALAMO, R. C., AND COLMAN, R. W. (1973) J. Biol. Chem. 248, 3456-3463) is derived from coagulation factor XII (Hageman factor). Large activator could not be isolated from plasma congenitally deficient in factor XII, and partial immunologic identity was demonstrated between...

Cancer cells acquire invasive ability to degrade and adhere to extracellular matrix (ECM) and migrate to adjacent tissues. This ultimately results metastasis. Hence, the present study investigated the in vitro effects of cyclopeptide glycoside, RA-XII on cell adhesion, invasion, proliferation and matrix degradation, and its underlying mechanism in murine breast tumour cells, 4T1. The effect of ...

STUDY OBJECTIVES The medullary hypoglossal nucleus (XII) innervates the genioglossal muscles of the tongue, and opioid-induced alterations in tongue muscle tone contribute to airway obstruction. Previous studies have shown that morphine causes a significant decrease in acetylcholine (ACh) release in some brain regions, but the effects of morphine on ACh release in XII have not been quantified. ...

In adult mouse, the mRNA corresponding to the alpha1 chain of type XII collagen (alpha 1(XII)) is predominantly detected in the bone. Additionally, murine osteoblastic cells, MC3T3-E1, increased the mRNA level of alpha 1(XII) response to the mechanical strain in the stretch culture system. Cyclic stretch stress resulted in a threefold increase in mRNA level of alpha 1(XII) as compared to the co...

Various mechanisms have been hypothesized to explain the initiation of contact system activation in plasma. We investigated the capability of dextran sulphate (DS) of different molecular weights to initiate contact system activation in normal human plasma, and compared this with their capability to support factor XII autoactivation and to enhance factor XII susceptibility for cleavage by kallik...
