the conformational behavior of monosubstituted tri-methylsilyle ethynyl derivative of cal ix[4]arene as a newgeneration of caliarene was compared with tetra alkylated calyx[4]arene. the most important conformationalphenomena in these compounds which are pinched cone interconversion process were done by semi-empiricalmethod and ab initio calculations with gaussian 98w programming.

Larval gypsy moths, Lymantria dispar (Lepidoptera:Lymantriidae) were co-infected with the L. dispar nucleopolyhedrovirus (LdMNPV) and the Cotesia melanoscela (Hymenoptera:Braconidae) polydnavirus (CmeBV). CmeBV was given along with a parasitoid egg and calyx products in a stinging event, or in the form of an injection of calyx-derived extract. LdMNPV was delivered per os, integrated into artifi...

in the present study, for the first time, we document discovery of the predatory mite n. californicus in some rose greenhouses in yasouj, iran. furthermore, variation in spermathecal calyx shape is also discussed.

When harvesting Lycium barbarum L., excess amounts of detachments the half-ripe fruit, unripe flowers, and leaves significantly affect yield adversely subsequent processing, such as drying grading. Finite element method (FEM) simulations experiments were performed to harvest more ripe fruit less leaves. Three-dimensional (3D) models leaves, calyxes (flower calyx), stems stem), branches construc...

Reliable neuronal spiking is critical for a myriad of computations performed by neural circuits. This is particularly evident for sound localization cues in the auditory brainstem circuits that detect timing and intensity differences of sounds arriving at two ears. The calyx of Held-principal neuron synapse in the medial nucleus of the trapezoid body (MNTB) in this circuit is traditionally view...

one of the best and the most active ways for surveying thermal behaviour of materials is using differential scanning calorimetry. in this paper, the authors have studied thermal behaviour for schiff base ligand and their synthesized cobalt, nickel complexes. in this method, the sample is opposed to a controlled temperature change and its physical properties. here we studied melting point and tg...

Burgess Shale-type deposits provide invaluable insights into the early evolution of body plans and the ecological structure of Cambrian communities, but a number of species, continue to defy phylogenetic interpretations. Here we extend this list to include a new soft-bodied animal, Siphusauctum gregarium n. gen. and n. sp., from the Tulip Beds (Campsite Cliff Shale Member, Burgess Shale Formati...

To compare the outcomes of flexible ureterorenoscopy (F-URS) with extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) for the treatment of upper or mid calyx kidney stones of 10 to 20 mm. A total of 174 patients with radioopaque solitary upper or mid calyx stones who underwent ESWL or F-URS with holmium:YAG laser were enrolled in this study. Each group treated with ESWL and F-URS for upper or mid caly...
