Plants of four soybean (Glycine max L. Merrill) genotypes differing in their ability to accumulate iron were studied. The efficient genotypes were Hawkeye (HA) and A62-9 (E-9), and the inefficient ones were PI-54619-5-1 (PI) and A62-10 (I-10). When plants of opposite efficiency were grown in the same solution, iron accumulation decreased in the primary leaves of efficient plants, but it was una...

Self-dimerizations of twenty three aromatic carboxylate and sulfonate ions from their electrophoretic mobilities in aqueous solution were estimated by capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE). The magnitudes of the self-dimerizations ascribed to pi-pi interactions of these aromatic anions were determined by CZE as dimerization constants (KD). Although the largest KD value of 1.2 dm3 mol(-1) for 9-a...

Cross-conjugated enediynes cannot follow the Bergman cycloaromatization as it involves a methylenediyne moiety with only five pi e(-), insufficient for aromatization. Under reductive conditions the cyclization is made feasible by generating a product with a Hückel number of pi electrons. We illustrate this principle and demonstrate for the first time an anionic cyclization of a cross-conjugated...

One of the best flexible AC transmission system (FACTS) is unified power flow controller (UPFC). As it gets more benefit from both real and reactive transfer, used in for controlling transmitted power. The UPFC controls on side system. When as well set tries to follow command by using proportional integral (PI) controller. But some systems PI controllers cannot produce proper due oscillations. ...

OBJECTIVES The aim of this study is to investigate the role of platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) in the pathogenesis of sinonasal polyps. METHODS Study group (groups 1-3) consisted of nasal polyp samples of patients with sinonasal polyps and the control group consisted of inferior turbinate samples of patients without nasal polyp. In group 1, 14 specimens from ethmoid sinus; in group 2, 1...

Results A cohort of 204 patients was studied. Age 51 +/9 years; 156 (76,5%) were male; Logistic Euroscore (LE) of 5.1 +/8.4, LVEF 58 +/11. Surgery was 86 (42.2%) CABG, 79 (38.7%) valvular, 16 (7.8%) combined surgery and 23 (11.3%) others. 28 (13.7%) were self-employed. 15 of them already had a PI at the time of surgery. Patients with PI presented a LE of 6.7+/3.9 Vs. 11+/5 (p = 0.006); age 53+/...

OBJECTIVE To characterize the type and frequency of biochemical lipid abnormalities and physical changes in body composition associated with the use of protease inhibitor (PI)-containing antiretroviral therapy among human immunodeficiency virus-infected children treated for up to 6 years. METHODS A retrospective study of human immunodeficiency virus-infected pediatric patients enrolled in res...

The development of Haplorchis taichui was studied in sixteen mice, Mus musculus. Metacercarial cysts of H. taichui were obtained from the freshwater fish, Thynnichthys thynnoides, collected in Chiang Mai Province, north Thailand. Approximately 200 active metacercariae were orally introduced into each mouse. Two mice were randomly sacrificed and necropsied daily from day 2-9 postinfection (pi). ...
