The exact order of deterministic, stochastic and average error bounds of multidimensional quadrature formulas for anisotropic Sobolev class W r pðIÞ; Nikolskii class H pðIÞ and their periodic analogue is obtained. It is proved that if p41; then the stochastic and average error bounds are essentially smaller than the deterministic error bounds. Nonlinear methods, adaptive methods, or even method...

The idea of local input space histograms was recently introduced as a means to augment prototype-based vector quantization methods in order to gather more information about the structure of the respective input space. Here we investigate the utility of this new idea for analysing and clustering highdimensional data. Our results demonstrate that the additional information gained about the input ...

Western blotting (WB; immunoblotting) is a widely used tool for the serodiagnosis of Lyme borreliosis (LB), but so far, no generally accepted criteria for performance and interpretation have been established in Europe. The current study was preceeded by a detailed analysis of WB with whole-cell lysates of three species of Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato (U. Hauser, G. Lehnert, R. Lobentanzer, a...

Adeno-associated virus type 5 (AAV5) is unique among human AAV serotypes in that it uses a polyadenylation site [(pA)p] within the single small intron in the center of the genome. We previously reported that inhibition of polyadenylation at (pA)p, necessary for read-through of P41-generated capsid gene pre-mRNAs which are subsequently spliced, requires binding of U1 snRNP to the upstream donor....

OBJECTIVE Western blotting (WB; immunoblotting) is a widely used tool for the serodiagnosis of Lyme borreliosis (LB), but so far, no generally accepted criteria for its performance and interpretation have been established in China. The present study was designed to determine the criteria for standardized Western blot for the predominant species of Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato in China, in wh...
