isolation of pigmented t.violaceum from a patient with endothrix infection associated with the inflammatory and kerion symptoms and also isolation of the non- pigmented strain from another patient with non-inflammatory symptoms, led us to investigate the enzymic activities in both strains. most of the studies on dermatophyte compoxition have shown the relationship between proteolytic enzymes an...

The objective of this study is to design and analyse materials which are capable of harvesting water from thin air using condensation phenomenon which employs the radiative cooling approach. These passive cooling materials not only solve the water generating problems, but also employed in various cooling applications. The fundamental concept of radiative cooling is analysed and the performance ...

We are reporting the results of studies on issues related to the injection stripping foil in the Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) accumulator ring. The problems related to foil heating and foil lifetime, such as current density distribution and temperature distribution in the foil, are investigated. The impact of injection errors on the beam losses at the foil is studied. The particle traversal ...

As software systems become larger and more complex, developers require the ability to model abstract concepts while ensuring consistency across the entire project. The internet has changed the nature of software by increasing the desire for software deployment across multiple distributed platforms. Finally, increased dependence on technology requires assurance that designed software will perfor...

introcduction: pigmented villonodular synovitis (pvs) is rare, benign and proliferative disorder of synovium which consists of villous and/ or nodular formations in joints.diagnosis is determined by clinical features, aspiration of the joint, radiographic features and magnetic resonance imaging (mri).the definitive treatment is the complete resection of affected tissue by open or arthroscopic s...

Date syrup powder is a new product which can be used as sugar substitute. First, the date syrupwas spread out on a foil and placed in the oven at 60°C for 24 hours. Date syrup was separated from the foil andgrinded. 2% agar and 2% starch were added and syrup with agar and starch that was in a lumpy shape werecrushed and spread on the foil and placed at 60°C for 24 hours. Powdered granules, agar...

This paper is concerned with FS-FOIL—an extension of Quinlan’s First-Order Inductive Learning Method (FOIL). In contrast to the classical FOIL algorithm, FS-FOIL uses fuzzy predicates and, thereby, allows to deal not only with categorical variables, but also with numerical ones, without the need to draw sharp boundaries. This method is described in full detail along with discussions how it can ...

In this paper, we aim to understand whether current language and vision (LaVi) models truly grasp the interaction between the two modalities. To this end, we propose an extension of the MSCOCO dataset, FOIL-COCO, which associates images with both correct and ‘foil’ captions, that is, descriptions of the image that are highly similar to the original ones, but contain one single mistake (‘foil wo...

The extent to which Chinese is represented phonologically or orthographically in verbal short-term memory was investigated using a short-term cued recall task (Tehan & Humphreys, 1998). In all conditions, proactive interference was induced by providing a retrieval cue (e.g. wild animal) that subsumed a to-be-recalled target word (e.g. leopard) and a to-beforgotten foil word (e.g. tiger), so tha...
