These studies were conducted to determine the magnitude and mechanism of compensation for impaired glucagon and insulin responses to exercise. For this purpose, dogs underwent surgery >16 days before experiments, at which time flow probes were implanted and silastic catheters were inserted. During experiments, glucagon and insulin were fixed at basal levels during rest and exercise using a panc...

Recently, harmful algal bloom (HAB), also termed "red tide", has been recognized as a serious problem in marine environments according to climate changes worldwide. Many novel materials or methods to prevent HAB have not yet been employed except for clay dispersion, in which can the resulting sedimentation on the seafloor can also cause alteration in marine ecology or secondary environmental po...

Heavy alkylated benzene (HAB), which is a by-product in linear alkylbenzene (LAB) production by UOP process, is separated by distillation from LAB and consists of a range of components such as polyalkylbenzenes, diphenylalkanes, alkyl tetralins, and alkylindans. The products of sulfonation of HAB or its distillation cuts are of wide industrial applications such as emulsifiers, dispersants in lu...

BACKGROUND Harmful algal blooms (HABs) are one focus of the national research initiatives on Oceans and Human Health (OHH) at NIEHS, NOAA and NSF. All of the OHH Centers, from the east coast to Hawaii, include one or more research projects devoted to studying HAB problems and their relationship to human health. The research shares common goals for understanding, monitoring and predicting HAB ev...

We study the boundary between the vortex-solid and the vortex-liquid phases in the Hc–Hab plane, for irradiated Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+δ single crystals, by measuring the ac-local magnetic permeability in tilted magnetic fields. For high temperatures and at the phase boundary, we find that the c-axis magnetic field component H trans c decreases linearly when increasing the in-plane magnetic field Hab, s...

The main goal of this study is to prove that two modal mechanisms Greenberg (2003) postulated for English indefinite singular (IS) and bare plural (BP) generics in the nominal domain are mirrored in Polish perfective and imperfective generics in the event domain. On the basis of Oosterhof’s (2006) argumentation, I justify the distinction between the GEN and the HAB intensional operators. With t...

Josephson plasma waves are scattered by the Josephson vortex lattice. This scattering results in a strong dependence, on the in-plane magnetic-field Hab, of the reflection and transmission of THz radiation propagating in layered superconductors. In particular, a tunable band-gap structure (THz photonic crystal) occurs in such a medium. These effects can be used, by varying Hab, for the selectiv...

In the present paper a global conformal invariant Y of a closed initial data set is constructed. A spacelike hypersurface Σ in a Lorentzian spacetime naturally inherits from the spacetime metric a differentiation De, the so-called real Sen connection, which turns out to be determined completely by the initial data hab and χab induced on Σ, and coincides, in the case of vanishing second fundamen...

Tumor-to-tumor metastasis is considered to be an unusual event. Here, we describe a patient with von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) syndrome with metastasis of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) to a hemangioblastoma (HAB) of the spinal cord. Histological examination revealed cells with clear cytoplasm arranged in alveolar or tubular patterns in most fields of view. In the other area, the tumor showed abundant th...
