The scavenger receptor class B, type I (SR-BI), is a member of the CD36 superfamily comprising transmembrane proteins involved in mammalian and fish lipid homeostasis regulation. We hypothesize that this receptor plays an important role in Macrobrachium nipponense lipid metabolism. However, little attention has been paid to SR-BI in commercial crustaceans. In the present study, we report a cDNA...

O Centro de Arte Contemporânea (CAC) funcionou entre 1976 e 1980 no Museu Nacional Soares dos Reis (MNSR), Porto, com vista à exposição, estudo divulgação arte contemporânea. Este artigo tem como objetivo analisar a parceria institucional estabelecida o CAC MNSR durante esses quatro anos. Para tal, torna-se importante contextualizar criação do partir da perspetiva ausência um museu moderna capa...

To assess the effects of quinidine gluconate on left ventricular (LV) performance, sonomicrometer length gauges and micromanometer catheters were implanted in 17 conscious dogs. Studies were carried out before and after the development of volume overload LV hypertrophy induced by an aortocaval fistula. Quinidine gluconate was given intravenously in two successive doses of 6 mg/kg, yielding seru...

In this paper we presents a method for handling multiple metrics and different network parameters simultaneously to analyze the loss factor of routing protocols in mobile ad hoc network(MANET) environments. We have used Taguchi’ losses function to determine the best parameters and routing over head simultaneously for AOMDV protocol. We have consider various different mobile ad hoc network param...

The Nigeria Research Reactor-1 (NIRR-1) is the nation’s first nuclear reactor and it is sited at the Centre for Energy Research and Training, Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria, Nigeria. It is a Miniature Neutron Source Reactor (MNSR) that attained criticality on February 03, 2004 and was licensed to operate at a maximum power of 31 kW three days a week in June 01, 2004. This presentation enumerate...

nanoparticles of silver were treaeted as clinical trials in some broiler farms for its disinfecting characters in 4 broiler farms during growing period. the nanosilver were used orally and inhalatory in amount of 2 -4 ppm and 40 ppm respectively. some samples of breast muscle, femora muscle, heart, gizzard, liver, skin, spleen, lung, kidney and cloacal feces were collected randomly in slaughter...

The core conversion studies of the Ghana Research Reactor Core started in 2006 and with the objective of designing an LEU core with similar operational capabilities as the original HEU core and with acceptable safety margins under both normal and accident conditions. Steadystate studies for converting the Ghana MNSR facility from HEU to LEU core have been performed using the PLTEMP/ANL V4.1 cod...

In this paper we presents a method for handling multiple metrics and different network parameters simultaneously to analyze the loss factor of routing protocols in mobile ad hoc network(MANET) environments. We have used Taguchi’ loss function to determine the best parameters giving maximum throughput, packet delivery ratio (PDR), average delay, DROP and routing over head simultaneously for AODV...
