The quantization of the bosonic string in a general curved space-time has been the subject of intensive research for some time [1, 2, 3, 4]. Whereas the treatment by de Vega [1] relies on the canonical quantization, only few attempts of a path integral quantization have been made. Those attempts [3, 4] involved the semi-classical approximation, but despite their conceptual simplicity no attempt...

Municipal solid waste landfills are significant parts of anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions. The emission of significant amount of landfill gas has generated considerable interest in quantifying such emissions. The chemical composition of the organic constituents and potential amount of landfill gas that can be derived from the waste were determined. The chemical formulae for the rapidly bi...

With the wide use of double-stranded RNA interference (RNAi) for the analysis of gene function in plants, a high-throughput system for making hairpin RNA (hpRNA) constructs is in great demand. Here, we describe a novel restriction-ligation approach that provides a simple but efficient construction of intron-containing hpRNA (ihpRNA) vectors. The system takes advantage of the type IIs restrictio...

It is widely believed that at small x, the BFKL resummed gluon splitting function should grow as a power of 1/x. But in several recent calculations it has been found to decrease for moderately small-x before eventually rising. We show that this 'dip' structure is a rigorous feature of the P gg splitting function for sufficiently small α s , the minimum occurring formally at log 1/x ∼ 1/ √ α s. ...

  To assess the hygienic conditions of market rainbow trout (Oncorhynchusmykiss ), the residuals of three antibiotics consisting of oxytetracycline (OTC), enrofloxacin (EN) and erythromycin (ET) were measured in the muscles of freshly caught fish obtained from 17 trout farming in Charmahal-va-Bakhteyari (CVB) province using high performance liquid chromatography. Totally 266 fish samples w...

a modified f-expansion method to find the exact traveling wave solutions of  two-component nonlinear partial differential equations (nlpdes) is discussed. we use this method to construct many new solutions to the nonlinear whitham-broer-kaup system (1+1)-dimensional. the solutions obtained include jacobi elliptic periodic wave solutions which exactly degenerate to the soliton solutions, triangu...

Background and Aims: The emergence of drug-resistant influenza viruses has become a serious threat for human and animal populations. Glycyrrhiza glabra (Gg) is a traditional medicine clinically used for the treatment of viral respiratory infection symptoms in most countries. We evaluated the effects of the herb on influenza virus replication in human lung cultured cells (A549) following the det...

The aim of the research work was to chemically modify guar gum(GG) as a pH sensitive co-polymer and formulating intestinal targeting ESO nanoparticles (NPs) using the synthesized co-polymer. Poly acrylamide-grafted-guar gum (PAAm-g-GG) co-polymer was synthesized by free radical polymerization. Chemical modification of PAAm-g-GG by alkaline hydrolysis results in formation of a pH-sensitive co-po...
