INTRODUCTION Paenibacillus larvae larvae (WHITE) is the causative agent of American foulbrood (AFB) in honey bees (Apis mellifera L.). This disease is lethal to honey bee colonies if curative control actions are not taken (HANSEN and BRØDSGAARD, 1997). Recently, increasing problems with AFB in Europe (DROBNÍKOVÁ,1992; HANSEN,1996; OTTEN, 1991; VON DER OHE et al. 1996) have renewed the interest ...

Introduction: Venus host two distinctive terrains, one tectonic, the other volcanic. These two terrain types, ribbon tessera terrain and shield terrain are both extensively preserved across the surface of Venus, and they might also show a spatial correlation, which may, in turn reflect a genetic relationship. Geology: Ribbon tessera terrain (rtt) represents the oldest locally exposed unit acros...

This paper attempts to take a meticulous look on stability of money demand in India Using annual data for period 1953-2007 and the Hansen (1992) and Gregory Hansen (1996) co-integration approaches with structural break. Results of the Gregory Hansen (1996) cointegration analysis show the presence of cointegration in demand for money, real GDP and nominal interest rate with structural break at 1...

Mads Gyrd-Hansen studied biochemistry at the University of Copenhagen and received his PhD in 2005 under the supervision of Marja Jäättelä at the Danish Cancer Society Research Centre. He then joined the laboratory of Pascal Meier at the Institute of Cancer Research in London to work on the inhibitor of apoptosis (IAP) proteins. Mads returned to Copenhagen in 2008 to the Biotech Research and In...

Generalized Method of Moment (GMM) estimation is one of two developments in econometrics in the 80ies that revolutionized empirical work in macroeconomics. (The other being the understanding of unit roots and cointegration.) The path breaking articles on GMM were those of Hansen (1982) and Hansen and Singleton (1982). For introductions to GMM, Davidson and MacKinnon (1993) have comprehensive ch...

The Hansen solubility parameter approach is revisited by implementing the thermodynamics of dissolution and mixing. Hansen's pragmatic approach has earned its spurs in predicting solvents for polymer solutions, but for molecular solutes improvements are needed. By going into the details of entropy and enthalpy, several corrections are suggested that make the methodology thermodynamically sound ...

Some organic compounds gelate particular solvents by forming a network of anisotropic fibres. We show that Hansen solubility parameters can be used to predict the range of solvents that are likely to be gelled by any given gelator.

We have read with interest the article by HANSEN et al. [1] in a recent issue of the European Respiratory Journal, stating that the use of forced expiratory volume in six seconds (FEV6) reduces the sensitivity of obstructive lung disease detection. Their study population of 3,515 current smokers, with a 17.5% prevalence of obstruction, found a sensitivity of only 76.8% and a specificity of 98.2...

Pathogenesis Hoerlein determined that intervertebral disc disease (IVDD) accounted for 2.02% of all diseases diagnosed in dogs (Hoerlein 1952). Incidence of IVDD peaks at 4 to 6 years of age in chondrodystrophic breeds and at 6 to 8 years in nonchondrodystrophic breeds (Priester 1976). The Dachshund had the highest frequency followed in succession by the Pekingese, Welsh corgi, Beagle, Lhasa Ap...
