the findings indicate that among the main factors affecting job stress the psycho-social, physical and environmental factors are prior to the other factors. also amongst the psychosocial factors, lack of career promotion opportunities with 0.222 has the most weight and a lack of accountability of the management about the employees' concerns with 0.036 has the least weight; amongst the phys...

Attomole quantities of catechins were determined by a capillary liquid chromatography system with electrochemical detection (CLC-ECD) and the system is applied to the determination of catechins in human plasma. The eight catechins: catechin (C), epicatechin (EC), gallocatechin (GC), epigallocatechin (EGC), catechin gallate (Cg), epicatechin gallate (ECg), gallocatechin gallate (GCg), and epigal...

BACKGROUND The inward rectifier K+ current (IK1) plays an important role in governing cardiac electrical activity and is well known to have different properties in the atrium compared with the ventricle. Several inward rectifier K+ channel (IRK) subunits (hIRK, HH-IRK1, HIR, and TWIK-1) with different properties have been cloned from human tissues, but their relative expression in cardiac tissu...

Absorbance-Modulation-Optical Lithography (AMOL) enables super-resolution optical lithography by simultaneous illumination of a photochromic film by a bright spot at one wavelength, λ1 and a node at another wavelength, λ2. A deep subwavelength region of the transparent photochromic isomer is created in the vicinity of the node. Light at λ1 penetrates this region and exposes an underlying photor...

The growth of intelligent agent technology allows new developments in the way learners obtain knowledge on the Internet. This paper proposes an agent-mediated online learning architecture, called AMOL, to automate online learning processes.

We compared the effect of CO2 concentration ([CO2], ranging from f 5 to f 34 Amol l ) at four different photon flux densities (PFD= 15, 30, 80 and 150 Amol m 2 s ) and two light/dark (L/D) cycles (16/8 and 24/0 h) on the coccolithophore Emiliania huxleyi. With increasing [CO2], a decrease in the particulate inorganic carbon to particulate organic carbon (PIC/POC) ratio was observed at all light...

We evaluated the contributions of enzyme cytochemical stains and flow cytometric immunophenotyping (FCI) data to detection of monocytic cells (MCs) in acute myelomonocytic and acute monocytic leukemias (AMMLs and AMoLs) and compared FCI findings in AMoL, chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML), and normal peripheral blood (PB) and bone marrow (BM) monocytes to classify and evaluate absolute mono...
