in the last decades researchers had focused on developing a vaccine against tick based on protective antigen. recombinant vaccines based on concealed antigen from boophilus microplus have been developed in australia and cuba by the name of tickgard and gavac (de la fuente and kocan, 2006). further studies on this antigen have shown some extent of protection against other species (de vos et al.,...

In the last decades researchers had focused on developing a vaccine against tick based on protective antigen. Recombinant vaccines based on concealed antigen from Boophilus microplus have been developed in Australia and Cuba by the name of TICKGARD and GAVAC (De La Fuente and Kocan, 2006). Further studies on this antigen have shown some extent of protection against other species (De Vos et al.,...

the purpose of this study is the fusion of polarimetric sar and hyperspectral images for concealed target detection in forest areas. the proposed method is using the polarimetric and the spectral signatures. a radarsat-2 image and a hyperion image of the city san francisco were chosen for evaluation of the proposed method. the four targets were selected in the forest and the outer areas. three ...

introduction: intranodal pathways of atrioventricular (av) node play a vital role in the delay of conduction time in response to various atrial inputs. the present study was aimed to determine the frequency-dependent electrophysiological properties of concealed slow pathway according to a functional model of isolated rabbit atrioventricular node preparation after fast pathway ablation. methods:...

  Introduction : The aim of this study is to obtain new insight into possible relation between functional properties of slow concealed pathway and rate-dependent properties of AV-node.   Methods : Rate-dependent nodal properties of recovery, facilitation, and fatigue were characterized by stimulation protocols in one groups of (N=7) isolated superfused AV-Nodal rabbits. Small miniature lesions ...
