Two different products of calcium magnesium acetate (CMA) were tested. Their molar ratios, View the MathML source, were 1.26 and 0.91 respectively. Both products were used as concentrated solutions. In addition, the 0.91 product was also used in a solution, which was diluted so that its freezing point depression was as great as that of a 3 percent (by mass) sodium chloride solution. — Prisms of 0.
In a study of 972 women, sexual characteristics of 66 women with a cervical human papillomavirus infection (CHPI) were compared to the remaining study population. Among a number of sexual variables that were significantly correlated with CHPI were number of lifetime sexual partners, short partnerships, many recent partners, infidelity, casual travel sex, sexual debut abroad, oral and anal sex, and
Ca2+ inflow via store-operated Ca2+ channels was investigated in rings of rat tail and basilar arteries kept in serum-free organ culture, which is known to preserve the contractility of the vascular smooth muscle. After culture for 3-4 days, Ca2+ release from intracellular stores in response to caffeine (20 mM) was augmented 2- to 4-fold. Following depletion of intracellular Ca2+ stores by caffein
Gel swelling experiments have been used to study the binding of ionic surfactants to a series of nonionic alkylacrylamide hydrogels of increasing hydrophobicity. The binding of hexadecyl trimethylammonium (C-16-TA(+)) to uncharged gels is sensitive to both the hydrophobicity of the gel and the counterion to the surfactant. There is a minimum hydrophobicity threshold below which binding of the surf
This paper focuses on the volatile organic compound emissions from baled municipal solid waste (MSW). The analytical methodology was based on sampling with adsorbent tubes once a month during seven occasions within a time period of 1 year. Automated analyses were carried Out on-line work-up with thermal desorption directly connected to a gas chromatograph-mass spectrometer. The effect of different
High-spin states of T-z = 1 nuclei were studied with the reactions Ni-58(Si-28,3 alpha)Kr-74,Ni-58(Si-28,2 alpha)Sr-78, and Ni-58(Si-28,2p2n)Zr-82 at 130 MeV beam energy. The Gammasphere array in conjunction with the 4 pi charged-particle detector array Microball was used to detect gamma rays in coincidence with evaporated light charged particles. The known pi = +, alpha = 0 yrast bands were exten

Glucagon, secreted by the pancreatic alpha-cells, stimulates insulin secretion from neighboring beta-cells by cAMP- and protein kinase A (PKA)-dependent mechanisms, but it is not known whether glucagon also modulates its own secretion. We have addressed this issue by combining recordings of membrane capacitance (to monitor exocytosis) in individual alpha-cells with biochemical assays of glucagon s
Spray drying is a widely used process to produce pharmaceutical powders. In traditional spray drying, the particle size distribution is wide and not well controlled. Using EHD atomization for spray drying offers a possibility to tailor the particle size and morphology. In conventional EHD spray drying, the generated particles are charged and need to be discharged to avoid Rayleigh breakup. Dischar
The development of underwater profiles and sand losses from the dune respectively the beach by various water level and wave conditions has been studied worldwide in large wave flumes since 1955. Virtually all major results collected over the last decades are documented and described in this paper. Moreover, to this overview results from the MAST III-SAFE experiments, carried out in the Grosser Wel
New radiative lifetimes, measured by time-resolved laser-induced fluorescence spectroscopy, are reported for five Rydberg states of singly ionized ytterbium. Free Yb+ ions were produced in a laser-induced plasma. The experimental results have been compared with HFR calculations, taking core-polarization effects into account, and a good agreement (within 25%) between theory and experiment is observ
No generally accepted definition of osteoarthritis exists. Traditionally, the diagnosis is obtained by radiographic examination but different definitions are used for different purposes. Since no causal treatment exists, treatment is aiming at reducing symptoms and improving function. The correlation between radiographic features of osteoarthritis and symptoms is poor. Thus, it is recommended that
The topological group D-k(S) of diffeomorphisms of the unit circle 5 of Sobolev class H-k, for k large enough, is a Banach manifold modeled on the Hilbert space H-k(S). In this paper we show that the H-1 right-invariant metric obtained by right-translation of the H-1 inner product on TidDk(S)similar or equal to H-k(S) defines a smooth Riemannian metric on D-k(S), and we explicitly construct a comp
Boswellic acids are the compounds isolated from the gum resin of Boswellia serrata and have been used for the treatment of inflammatory diseases for many years in the countries of the east. Recently, a few studies showed that the acids may have anti-cancer effect on leukemia and brain tumours. We investigated the apoptotic and anti-proliferative effects of two types of boswellic acids, keto-beta-b
