Fluxes of ions and water across the short-circuited, excised bullfrog lung were determined by radioisotope techniques. The unidirectional flows of Na+, K+, Ca++, TcO4 minus, HCO3 minus, gluconate, rho-aminohippurate, dinitrophenolate, SO4 equal to, and water were symmetrical. Both HCO3 minus fluxes were reduced by acetazolamide. In contrast, Cl minus, Br minus I minus, and SCN minus movement fr...

A function f : V (G) → {−1, 0, 1} is a minus dominating function if for every vertex v ∈ V (G), ∑ u∈N [v] f(u) ≥ 1. A minus dominating function f of G is called a global minus dominating function if f is also a minus dominating function of the complement G of G. The global minus domination number γ− g (G) of G is defined as γ − g (G) = min{ ∑ v∈V (G) f(v) | f is a global minus dominating functi...

Although zygospore (mature zygote) formation in P. blakeslleeanus occurs in liquid glucoseglutamate medium, morphological observations are made more easily when cultures are grown on 1-mm-thick agar medium. Zygophores (sexually differentiated hyphae) develop prior to physical contact in crosses of (plus) and (minus) wild types. Zygophores interlock upon contact and then undergo six successive m...

The relationship between regional blood flow and epicardial S-T segment elevation was studied in 26 open-chest anesthetized dogs with left anterior coronary artery ligations. Changes in myocardial blood flow, measured with 15 plus or minus 5mu (diameter) microspheres labeled with 141-Ce, 85-Sr, and 169-Yb, were correlated with summated S-T segment elevations 15 minutes, 1 hour, and 2 hours afte...

We introduce one of many classes of problems which can be defined in terms of 3-valued functions on the vertices of a graph G = (V, E) of the form f : V + { 1, 0, l}. Such a fknction is said to be a minus dominating function if the sum of its function values over any closed neighborhood is at least one. That is, for every t’ E V, ,f(N[r~])> 1, where N[a] consists of 1: and every vertex adjacent...
