The use of in vitro potato shoot cultures for protoplast isolation is desirable for consistent protoplast qualities. Ethylene build-up in the culture vessels causes problems for leaf growth (e.g. decreasing leaf surface, dry weight and chlorophyll) in shoot culture. Fifty to one hundred µM Silver thiosulfate (STS) produced a larger leaf area as a source of plant material for protoplast isolatio...

Survival of vertebrate embryos depends on their ability to assemble a correctly patterned, integrated network of blood vessels to supply oxygen and nutrients to developing tissues. The arrangement of larger caliber intraembryonic vessels, specification of arterial-venous identity, and proper placement of major branch points and arterial-venous connections are all precisely determined. A number ...

  Hamartomatous polyps of the palatine tonsil are very rare. They have been variously termed as a lymphangiectatic fibrous polyp, lipoma, pedunculated tonsil etc. in the English literature. We present here a case of hamartomatous polyp of the tonsil occurring in a 32-year-old male who presented with bilateral enlarged palatine tonsils with recurrent tonsillitis. Surgical excision showed two pa...

BACKGROUND This study was designed to establish the number and area (as a percentage) of bronchial wall vessels in subjects with and without asthma, to obtain information on the morphology of the vessels, and to see whether changes differed in patients with mild, moderate, and severe asthma. METHODS Biopsy specimens were taken using a rigid bronchoscope from the carina of the middle lobe bron...

results color doppler usg had a sensitivity of 95% and specificity of 98% in diagnosis of arterial injury. positive and negative predictive values of doppler usg were 92.5% and 94.2%, respectively. conclusions color doppler usg can be used as a reliable modality with acceptable sensitivity and specificity values to screen hemodynamically stable patients with limb trauma suspicious for arterial ...

conclusions following cabg, the most severity of pain was reported at surgical incision on time t2. pain began to decrease from the third day following the operation. age, sex and bmi along with operation-related factors such as duration of cbp or chest tube drainage may affect the pain pattern following cabg surgery. patients and methods the present study was conducted on 138 patients who unde...

In Oona Libens’s poetic-scientific theatre of objects, nonhuman actors take center stage in a universe that hangs together with wires and projection apparatuses. Her playful lecture performances resonate ideas from contemporary ecocritical new materialist debates.
