We developed a real-time (RT) PCR quantitative assay to measure the level of the integrated viral genome of HTLV-1 in host peripheral blood-mononuclear cells (PB-MNC) from healthy carriers and patients with adult T-cell leukemia (ATL). All of the clinical specimens were serologically and molecularly characterized by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and Southern blot hybridization (SBH)...

In this work we study the Schottky barrier height (SBH) at junction between $\beta$-Ga$_2$O$_3$ and platinum, a system of great importance for next generation high-power high-temperature electronic devices. Specifically, obtain interfacial atomic structures different orientations using our structure matching algorithm compute their SBH calculations based on hybrid density functional theory. The...

The annihilation rate of weakly interacting cold dark matter particles at the galactic center could be greatly enhanced by the growth of a density spike around the central supermassive black hole (SBH). Here we discuss the effects of hierarchical mergers on the central spike. Mergers between halos containing SBHs lead to the formation of SBH binaries which transfer energy to the dark matter par...

Stingless bees are essential to preser tropical ecosystems. They pollinate native flora, producing honey with properties for traditional health uses. Lactic acid bacteria spontaneously ferment in stingless bee (SBH). This study aims determine the main physicochemical characteristics of Melipona beecheii, Scraptotrigona pectoralis, Plebeia jatiformis and llorentei isolate identify FLAB present S...

Extreme mass ratio inspirals (EMRIs) are important sources for space-borne gravitational wave detectors, such as the laser interferometer space antenna and TianQin. Previous EMRI rate studies have focused on ``loss cone'' scenario, where stellar-mass black holes (sBHs) scattered into highly eccentric orbits near central massive hole (MBH) via multibody interaction. In this work, we calculate of...

The Brazilian Society of Tropical Medicine (BSTM) was established in the 1960s in an effort to bring together numerous academic members, professors and researchers from different universities and faculties throughout the country as a counterpoint to the Brazilian Society of Hygiene (Sociedade Brasileira de Higiene SBH). In those days, the SBH experienced a marked reduction in activity that cont...

YoungJung Chang and Nick Sahinidis DNA sequencing by hybridization (SBH) is a sequencing method that uses DNA chips to reconstruct a DNA sequence from fragmental subsequences. SBH has found many applications in custom resequencing and mutation detection, such as identification of SNPs, and remains an important experimental method. If the experimental data is free of error, the problem of recons...

This study investigates the incidence of high-salt diet in blood pressures, renal alpha(2)-adrenoceptor subtypes distribution, and gene expression in salt-sensitive (SBH) and salt-resistant (SBN) Sabra rats. Comparisons have been made between SBH and SBN rats submitted to a normal or a high-salt diet for 6 weeks. Only alpha(2)B-adrenoceptors are detected in kidneys of SBH rats, whatever the die...

INTRODUCTION Under-five mortality estimates are increasingly used in low and middle income countries to target interventions and measure performance against global development goals. Two new methods to rapidly estimate under-5 mortality based on Summary Birth Histories (SBH) were described in a previous paper and tested with data available. This analysis tests the methods using data appropriate...

The DNA sequencing is an elementary approach in computational molecular biology, leading to recognizing genetic information of organisms. The information is encoded as a sequence of nucleotides (basic particles of DNA) composing double helix, which in human beings reaches the length of 3 billions. There are four types of the nucleotides: A, C, G, and T (the abbreviations of names of their nitro...
