Zheng has proposed a seller-optimal auction for (asymmetric) independent-privatevalue environments where inter-bidder resale is possible. Zheng’s construction requires novel conditions—Resale Monotonicity, Transitivity, and Invariance—on the bidders’ value distribution profile. The only known examples of distribution profiles satisfying these conditions in environments with three or more bidder...

Isolation, purification and physicochemical properties of the antibiotic complex YA-56, a family of phleomycin-bleomycin group, are described. The antibiotic YA-56 complex was found to be composed mainly of two active components named YA-56X and Y. These components were clearly differentiated from the reported phleomycins and bleomycins by their physicochemical properties. However, by direct co...

A new complex of phleomycin-bleomycin group antibiotics, YA-56, was isolated from the culture broth of a streptomycete designated as strain MCRL 0387 and identified as a new variety of Streptomyces humidus Nakazawaand Shibata in Imamura et al.9 1956. Ultra-violet irradiation of strain MCRL0387 gave a high-yielding mutant which formed blue aerial mycelium instead of the grayish aerial mycelium o...

Background: Acute stent thrombosis is the complete occlusion of a coronary artery previously implanted stent. This unusual complication occurs in percutaneous intervention (PCI), development myocardial ischemia, and poor prognosis for patient. After PCI, acute can occur within 0-24 hours cause symptoms like syndrome. Incidents are about 0.6% to 3.4% Drug Eluting Stent (DES) implantation, depend...
