We have observed the recently discovered rich star cluster GLIMPSE-C01 for 46 ks with the Chandra X-ray Observatory. Seventeen X-ray sources with luminosities & 0.6×1031 ergs s−1 were discovered, one of which is likely a quiescent low-mass X-ray binary. The spatial distribution of these X-ray sources with respect to the NIR and IR images of the cluster, combined with the luminosity and spectral...

Pendrin is a Cl-/HCO3- exchanger expressed in type B and non-A, non-B intercalated cells in the distal nephron, where it facilitates Cl- absorption and is involved in Na+ absorption and acid-base balance. Pendrin-knockout mice show no fluid-electrolyte abnormalities under baseline conditions, although mice with double knockout of pendrin and the Na+/Cl- cotransporter (NCC) manifest profound sal...

Abstract The antifungal activity of Trichoderma hamatum K01 to control Colletotrichum gloeosporioides C01 was recorded. Pathogenicity C. on citrus leaves confirmed by the Koch postulate. T. inhibited colony growth and conidia production 70.55 79.07%, respectively. Crude extracts from expressed an against C01. crude TK01-MeOH showed most potent inhibitory effect at ED 50 values 273 355 ppm, Nano...

Background Allogenic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is a strategy used for treatment of different malignant diseases. However, success of allo-HSCT can be hampered by graft-versus-host-disease (GVHD). Natural killer (NK) cells may play an important role in activating antigen presenting cells and subsequent activation of T cells. The main purpose of this study was the evaluation ...

An SDDS-2000 server currently manages only buckets in its RAM storage [C01]. Several buckets can coexist. When many files are created however, RAM storage space may not be sufficient for all the buckets simultaneously. When an application requests a bucket, but there is not enough room in RAM for it, one can evict some buckets to the disk. We define a number of promising eviction strategies. Ou...

Over the last decades overheating in buildings has become a major concern. The situation is expected to worsen due current rate of climate change. Many efforts have been made evaluate future thermal performance and cooling technologies. In this paper, term “climate change resistivity” strategies defined, calculation method provided. A comprehensive simulation-based framework then introduced, en...

We analyse the effect of the anonymisation method multiplicative stochastic noise on the within estimation of a linear panel model. In particular, we concentrate on the panel model with serially correlated regressors. In addition to anonymisation as such, the serial correlation in a data set with only few points in time increases the bias of the within estimator and therefore must be taken into...

A group of highly fluorescent 2,1,3-benzothiadiazole derivatives (BH0-BH3), including two fluorene derivatives (AB2 and C01) were synthesized and characterized. The electrochemical, spectroscopic, and electrogenerated chemiluminescence (ECL) properties of the compounds were determined. Benzothiadiazole derivatives BH1, BH2, and BH3 show reversible oxidation and reduction waves and produce stron...

ABSTRACT The bacterium that causes cucurbit yellow vine disease (CYVD) has been placed in the species Serratia marcescens based on 16S rDNA and groE sequence analysis. However, phenotypic comparison of the organism with S. marcescens strains isolated from a variety of ecological niches showed significant heterogeneity. In this study, we compared the genomic DNA of S. marcescens strains from dif...
