a r t i c l e i n f o a b s t r a c t In the context of sample evidence alone, the high-alumina (HA) basalts appear to be an unique, and rare variety of mare basalt. In addition to their distinct chemistry, radiometric dating reveals these basalts to be among the oldest sampled mare basalts. Yet, HA basalts were sampled by four missions spanning a lateral range of ∼2400 km, with ages demonstrat...

Introduction: About 17% of the lunar surface is covered by mare basalts [1], mainly concentrated on the lunar nearside. The main period of mare volcanism occurred during the late Imbrian Period, ~3.3-3.8 Ga [2], although volcanism continued to a lesser extent until ~1.2 Ga [3]. These dates were assigned by Hiesinger et al. using crater size-frequency distribution measurements applied to pre-def...

The present investigation was carried out to evaluate anticancer activity of cow, goat, sheep, mare, donkey and camel milks and their casein and whey proteins against MCF7 cell line. The structure-based properties of the casein proteins were also investigated, using bioinformatics tools to find explanation for their antitumor activities. The effect of different milks and their casein and whey p...

www.sciencemag.org SCIENCE VOL 323 13 FEBRUARY 2009 843 COVER An image of Mare Moscoviense on the lunar farside, taken by the Terrain Camera aboard the SELENE (Kaguya) spacecraft on 17 January 2008. Crater frequency distributions derived from such images yield ages of about 2.5 billion years for several volcanic deposits in this mare, indicating that volcanism on the lunar farside lasted about ...

This report describes fibrous cyst lining injection and extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) of a medial femoral condyle (MFC) subchondral cystic lesion (SCL) resulting in catastrophic MFC fracture in an Arabian mare. The mare was presented for evaluation of a severe hind limb lameness of approximately 4 months duration. On presentation, a non-weight bearing lameness of the left hind limb w...

Haldatie Is a 40 km multi-ringed crater that occurs along with similar structures in a belt within the Smylhii Basin, It is the best developed structurally of all ciraters in this belt and displays examples of all materials units of Mare Smythii. In addition to the outer rim, the crater displays a sharp-crested, nearly complete inner ring, and a complex central peak of round hills that are 3nO-...

To the Editor, With this letter we provide an update on a case of eumycetoma caused by Madurella mycetomatis in a mare that we previously reported on [1]. The mare was euthanized in May 2013 at age 9 years following a case of acute colic. Throughout her life, the mare foaled three times and had one miscarriage. During the 6 years between the first diagnosis and euthanasia, abundant granulation ...
