We characterized the in...

The classical r-matrices with carriers gc containing the Borel subalgebra b(g) of simple Lie algebra g are studied. Using the graphical presentation of the dual Lie algebra g(r) we show that such solutions rech of the CYBE always exist. To obtain the explicit form of rech we find the dual coordinates in which the adjoint action of gc can be reduced. This gives us the detailed structure of the J...

Objective(s): The purpose of this study was to evaluate variations in yields, volatile composition and biological activities of essential oils (EOs) obtained from the aerial parts of Zhumeria majdae collected from five localities of the south of Iran. Materials and Methods: The EOs were analyzed using gas chromatography and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry techniques. The antioxidant activi...

The B. subtilis DeltahelD allele rendered cells proficient in transformational recombination and moderately sensitive to methyl methanesulfonate when present in an otherwise Rec(+) strain. The DeltahelD allele was introduced into rec-deficient strains representative of the alpha (recF strain), beta (addA addB), gamma (recH), epsilon (DeltarecU), and zeta (DeltarecS) epistatic groups. The Deltah...

Ziel des Projektes indiGo war die Entwicklung einer integrierten Lösung für prozessorientiertes Wissensmanagement in Software Engineering Umgebungen [Rech et al, 2004] [Rech und Althoff, 2004]. Dadurch wird die verteilte und kollaborative Einführung, Evaluation und Verbesserung von Prozessmodellen in einem Unternehmen ermöglicht. Dieser Beitrag stellt die Ergebnisse des indiGo-Projekts vor und ...

objective diabetes mellitus is manifested by hyperglycaemia. different treatments such as diets and drugs are recommended for diabetes control. for various reasons in recent years traditional plant (herbal) therapies as prescribed by indigenous systems of medicine with different mechanisms have commonly been used. the digestive enzymes such as alpha glucosidase are among these herbal remedies. ...
