and these results were considered the reference standard against which all other results were compared. Temocillin Etests were used according to the manufacturer's instructions. Susceptibility to temocillin using the Phoenix system was determined according to BSAC breakpoints for Enterobacteriaceae for systemic infections (susceptible if MIC ≤8 mg/L). 3 If the Etest or Phoenix results were with...

We present the design, implementation, and an evaluation of Elastic Phoenix. Based on the original Phoenix from Stanford, Elastic Phoenix is also a MapReduce implementation for shared-memory systems. The key new feature of Elastic Phoenix is that it supports malleable jobs: the ability add and remove worker processes during the execution of a job. With the original Phoenix, the number of proces...

this study examined historical and religious characters and events emanating myth of phoenix manifesting renewal and resurrection after death and destruction in adonis’s poetries. these concepts is symbols of realities in arabic societies. adonis described the society in vortex of leeway, inaction and absolute death. considering phoenix as a symbol of revolutionary human, adonis tried to back t...

Phoenix-3 based on a commercially available FFT spectrometer board AC-240, connected to a broadband receiver was qualified to be used as a solar polarization spectrometer. A pile of very time consuming measurements showed, that the system fulfills the given requirements to observe solar radiation between 1GHz and 5GHz in two polarizations. The total of 65536 channels produces 65 times more data...

Background: The pit of Phoenix dactylifera contains different compounds such as saturated and unsaturated fatty acids, Zinc, Cadmium, Calcium and Potassium which could improve steroidogenesis. In this research, effect of phoenix dactylifera pit powder was evaluated on female rat reproduction. Materials and Methods: In this experimental study, 50 female wistar rats were divided in 5 groups of 10...

The genus Phoenix (Arecaceae) comprises 14 species distributed from Cape Verde Islands to SE Asia. It includes the economically important species Phoenix dactylifera. The paucity of differential morphological and anatomical useful characters, and interspecific hybridization, make identification of Phoenix species difficult. In this context, the development of reliable DNA markers for species an...
