Previously, Zhang and Lowry (2008) analyzed the issues, limitations, and opportunities in cross-cultural research on collaborative software in information systems. This chapter revisits the issues discussed in that paper and adds to them an analysis of the research done since their analysis, which covered the years leading up to 2005. Five additional articles, published between 2005 and the end...

BACKGROUND Health care workers and individuals with frequent contact with latex are at risk for latex protein allergy. OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to compare several established methods for measuring protein in extracts from latex-containing medical devices. METHODS Extracts from latex gloves were analyzed for natural rubber proteins using a modified Lowry assay and two differen...

We describe a 27-year-old patient with Coffin-Lowry syndrome with severe community pneumonia, septic shock and respiratory failure. We summarize both the mechanical ventilatory assistance and the hospitalization period in the intensive care unit.

Futures Studies as a multidisciplinary academic field developed in the last decades has emphasized meaningful and revealing nature of images future originating every society. In this sense, Piotr M. Szpunar Karl K. (2016) underline close relationship between recalling past imagining suggest mutual influence interdependence both processes. The purpose article is to apply concept “collective thou...

Some recent modifications of the protein assay by the method of Lowry, Rosebrough, Farr, and Randall (1951, .I. Biol. Chem. 193, 265-275) have been reexamined and altered to provide a consolidated method which is simple, rapid, objective, and more generally applicable. A DOC-TCA protein precipitation technique provides for rapid quantitative recovery of soluble and membrane proteins from interf...

An increase in cardiac P-adrenergic sensitivity or 8-receptor density or both has been described in several animal species after denervating the heart. The transplanted human heart is also denervated and, therefore, may exhibit supersensitivity to /3-adrenergic agonists and an increase in .3-adrenergic receptor density. In 16 patients examined 1-3 months after orthotopic cardiac transplantation...

The Biuret, Ultraviolet and Lowry techniques for the determination of total protein content were compared in 31 samples of patient serum and in 30 rat heart tissue homogenates. Statistically significant differences were found to exist between values obtained with each method. Human serum and heart homogenate protein were both lowest when assayed by the Lowry procedure, while serum and homogenat...
