Laser transmission spectroscopy (LTS) is a quantitative and rapid in vitro technique for measuring the size, shape, and number of nanoparticles in suspension. Here we report on the application of LTS as a novel detection method for species-specific DNA where the presence of one invasive species was differentiated from a closely related invasive sister species. The method employs carboxylated po...

background differences in causes, severities, areas of stenosis, and the association with swallowing and phonation of larynx and trachea can result into laryngotracheal stenosis (lts).this study evaluated the healing effect of bone marrow stem cells (bmscs) in experimentally induced lts dog model. methods seven dogs were enrolled. bmscs were isolated from proximal humerus and shoulder of a dog ...

Leukotrienes (LTs) are involved in the pathogenesis of lung fibrosis and were increased in exhaled breath condensate (EBC) of the patients with pneumoconiosis. However the possible influence of extra-pulmonary disorders on the EBC markers is not known. Therefore in parallel with EBC, LTs' levels in the plasma and urine were measured in patients with pneumoconiosis (45 × asbestos exposure, 37 × ...

Leukotrienes (LTs) are potent proinflammatory mediators, and many important aspects of innate and adaptive immune responses are regulated by LTs. Key members of the LT synthesis pathway are overexpressed in adipose tissue (AT) during obesity, resulting in increased LT levels in this tissue. We observed that several mouse adipocyte cell lines and primary adipocytes from mice and humans both can ...

There is a lack of stability in language difficulties across early childhood: most late talkers (LTs) resolve their difficulties by pre-school; and a significant number of children who were not LTs subsequently manifest language difficulties. Greater reliability in predicting individual outcomes is needed, which might be achieved by waiting until later in development when language is more stabl...

INTRODUCTION Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most common and aggressive type of primary brain tumor. The prognosis for GBM patients is extremely poor with an estimated median survival of 12 months. Despite this statistic, a number of GBM patients are living longer than in the past as new detection and treatment approaches are used. However, little is known about the psychological correlate...

This paper studies some normative relations that hold between actions, their preconditions and effects, with particular attention to connecting what are often called ‘ought be’ norms do’ norms. We use a formal model based on form of transition system ‘coloured labelled system’ (coloured LTS) introduced in series papers by Sergot Craven. Those works have variously presented formalism (an ‘action...
