The type-II TGF beta receptor mediates many of the biological responses to TGF beta. An examination of the expression of the type-II TGF beta receptor during mouse embryogenesis therefore provides specific information about the role of TGF beta during embryogenesis than has been available to date. We have isolated the genomic murine homologue of the human type-II TGF beta receptor corresponding...

This report contains properties and approximations of some matrix valued probability density functions. Expected values of functions of generalised Beta type II distributed random variables are derived. In two Theorems, approximations of matrix variate distributions are derived. A third theorem contain a marginalisation result.

We have proposed that since the type II pyrethroids deltamethrin and cypermethrin, but not the type I pyrethroid cismethrin act on chloride channels, this could contribute to the bimodal nature of pyrethroid poisoning syndromes. We now examine a wider range of pyrethroid structures on the activity of these calcium-independent voltage-gated maxi-chloride channels. Excised inside-out membrane pat...

background beta-lactam resistance in gram-negative bacteria, especially escherichia coli, is a main clinical problem. it is often caused by the co-production of β-lactamases, particularly extended-spectrum β-lactamases (esbls) and ampc enzymes. it may lead to a problem for diagnosis via recommended phenotypic tests by the clinical and laboratory standards institute (clsi). conversely, β-lactama...

Cumulative Count of Conforming (CCC) charts are utilized for monitoring the quality characteristics in high-quality processes. Executive cost of control charts is a motivation for researchers to design them with the lowest cost. Usually in most researches, only one objective named cost function is minimized subject to statistical constraints, which is not effective method for economic-statistic...
