Let A be a non empty set, let B be a set, let B1 be a set, and let y1 be a function from B1 into A. Let us assume that B1 ⊆ B. The functor cylinder0(A,B,B1, y1) yields a non empty subset of A B and is defined by: (Def. 1) cylinder0(A,B,B1, y1) = {y : B → A: y B1 = y1}. Let A be a non empty set and let B be a set. A non empty subset of AB is said to be a thin cylinder of A and B if: (Def. 2) The...

Introduction: At very high magnetic field, strong B1 heterogeneities occur in human MR images as RF wavelength becomes equal to, or smaller than, the size of the imaged target, interacting with lossy and dielectric properties of biological tissues(1,2). Different RF Shim techniques can be used in order to mitigate B1 inhomogeneities, which have considerable differences in their respective hardw...

We confirmed multiple picoeukaryotic algae, Ostreococcus, Micromonas, and Pelagomonas spp., as thiamine (vitamin B1) auxotrophs in laboratory experiments with axenic cultures. Examined strains have half saturation growth constants (Ks) for B1 between 1.26 and 6.22 pmol B1 L , which is higher than reported seawater concentrations. Minimum B1 cell quotas for Ostreococcus and Micromonas spp. are h...

TGF-b1 and VEGF, both angiogenesis inducers, have opposing effects on vascular endothelial cells. TGF-b1 induces apoptosis; VEGF induces survival. We have previously shown that TGF-b1 induces endothelial cell expression of VEGF, which mediates TGF-b1 induction of apoptosis through activation of p38mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK). Because VEGF activates p38 but protects the cells from ap...

Bu çalışmada, sol-jel spin kaplama yöntemi kullanılarak mikroskop cam altlıklar üzerine TiO2, TiO2/CoPc ve CoPc filmleri hazırlanmış katkı konsantrasyonunun filmlerin optik yapısal özellikleri etkisi araştırılmıştır. İnce geçirgenliğini ölçmek için 300-1100 nm dalgaboyu aralığında bir spektrofotometre kullanılmıştır. Uv-Vis çalışmaları, B Q bandı absorpsiyon bölgelerine karşılık gelen aralıklar...

Bois noir, an economically important disease of grapevine yellows that causes significant economic losses in wine production, is associated with ‘Candidatus Phytoplasma solani’ and transmitted to grapevines by cixiids Hyalesthes obsoletus Reptalus panzeri. Polyphagous planthopper Dictyophara europaea, commonly found natural habitats, harbors phytoplasmas from distinct groups alternative vector ...
