A column flow-through radioimmune assay for serum myoglobin has been developed. The assay uses antibodies to human or rhesus monkey myoglobin coupled to Sepharose by cyanogen bromide activation and myoglobin labeled by the Chloramine-T method. The labeled myoglobin is stable over two to three half-lives. Serum myoglobin levels were elevated when serum was taken up to 12 hours after myocardial i...

The meaning of work for Poles is analyzed here from 2 perspectives: macrosocial and individual. From the macrosocial perspective work attitudes are explained by 3 factors: traditional Polish Catholicism, cultural patterns (influence of noble class tradition), and experience of "real socialism." From an individual perspective some psychological and demographic predictors of an autonomous (intrin...

The saturation properties of terahertz emission from biased, large-aperture photoconductors excited by trains of amplified femtosecond optical pulses are presented. A direct comparison is made of the multiple-pulse saturation properties of terahertz emission from semi-insulating GaAs and low-temperature-grown GaAs emitters with different carrier lifetimes. When the carrier lifetime is less than...

The impacts and influences of Foucault's philosophies on geography cartography are great. This paper takes a different approach to this critical cartography, however, by focusing not just the map-image but map-sites exploring field as site cartographic practice. It does so drawing Christian Jacob's idea maps lieux de savoir, in new direction through placing within landscape lieu savoir. To do f...

A high-density array of plasmonic coaxial nanoantennas is used to enhance the two-photon absorption (TPA) process in a conventional silicon photodetector from a mode-locked 76 MHz Ti:sapphire laser over a spectral range from 1340 to 1550 nm. This enhanced TPA was used to generate an interferometric autocorrelation trace of a 150 fs laser pulse. Unlike second-harmonic generation, this technique ...

To date, over 1340 gene therapy clinical trials have been completed, are ongoing or have been approved worldwide. In 1997 we set up a database to bring together global information on gene therapy clinical trials as comprehensively as possible. The data are compiled and regularly updated from official agency sources, published literature, conference presentations and posters and from information...

MOTIVATION Using the genetic algorithm (GA) for RNA folding on a massively parallel supercomputer, MasPar MP-2 with 16,384 processors, we successfully predicted the existence of H-type pseudoknots in several sequences. RESULTS The GA is applied to folding the tRNA-like 3' end of turnip yellow mosaic virus (TYMV) RNA sequence with 82 nucleotides, the 3' UTRs of satellite tobacco necrosis virus...
