Antibiotic derivative K41-DA1, -DA2 and -DA3 (2 approximately 4), deamicetosyl derivatives of antibiotic K41 (1), were prepared by acidic degradation of K41 and following hydrogenation reaction. K41-DA2 (3) showed comparable antimicrobial activities to K41 in vitro but not in vivo.

where Dui/Dt denotes the time derivative following the motion of the fluid particle, and ui is velocity. Here, ν is the kinematic viscosity, ∇x ≡ ∂xn∂xn is the Laplacian operator, ∂ denotes differentiation with respect to the subscript variable, summation is implied by repeated indices, p is pressure divided by fluid density; density is constant. ε is energy dissipation rate per unit mass of fl...

Canine distemper virus (CDV) causes a life-threatening disease in several carnivores including domestic dogs. Recently, we identified a molecule, CD9, a member of the tetraspan transmembrane protein family, which facilitates, and antibodies to which inhibit, the infection of tissue culture cells with CDV (strain Onderstepoort). Here we describe that an anti-CD9 monoclonal antibody (MAb K41) did...

We deene a (chaotic) deterministic variant of random multiplicative cascade models of turbulence. It preserves the hierarchical tree structure , thanks to the addition of innnitesimal noise. The zero-noise limit can be handled by Perron-Frobenius theory, just as the zero-diiusivity limit for the fast dynamo problem. Random multiplicative models do not possess Kolmogorov 1941 (K41) scaling becau...

We define a (chaotic) deterministic variant of random multiplicative cascade models of turbulence. It preserves the hierarchical tree structure , thanks to the addition of infinitesimal noise. The zero-noise limit can be handled by Perron-Frobenius theory, just as the zero-diffusivity limit for the fast dynamo problem.

A definition of K41 scaling law for suitable families of measures is given and investigated. First, a number of necessary conditions are proved. They imply the absence of scaling laws for 2D stochastic Navier-Stokes equations and for the stochastic Stokes (linear) problem in any dimension, while they imply a lower bound on the mean vortex stretching in 3D. Second, for 3D stochastic Navier-Stoke...

Canine distemper virus (CDV), a lymphotropic and neurotropic negative-stranded RNA virus of the Morbillivirus genus, causes a life-threatening disease in several carnivores, including domestic dogs. To identify the cellular receptor(s) involved in the uptake of CDV by susceptible cells, we isolated a monoclonal antibody (MAb K41) which binds to the cell surface and inhibits the CDV infection of...

A model to explain the statistics of the velocity gradients in the dissipation range of a turbulent flow is presented. The experimentally observed non-gaussian statistics is theoretically predicted by means of a thermodynamical analogy using the maximum entropy principle of ordinary statistical mechanics. PACS numbers: 47.27.Gs The dynamics of fluids at high Reynolds number is one of the most i...
