Characterization of human serum strain-specific antihemagglutinin antibody to A/Port Chalmers/73 (H3N2) influenza virus by radioimmunoprecipitation assays.

We performed radioimmunoprecipitation assays in which iodinated preparations of A/Port Chalmers/73 (A/PC/73) hemagglutinin were used as the test antigens and high concentrations of unlabeled A/Hong Kong/68 viral protein were used to inhibit the binding of cross-reactive antibodies to quantitate strain-specific antibody responses in postvaccination sera. Strain-specific antibodies comprised 8 to...

the effect of taftan pozzolan on the compressive strength of concrete in the environmental conditions of oman sea (chabahar port)

cement is an essential ingredient in the concrete buildings. for production of cement considerable amount of fossil fuel and electrical energy is consumed. on the other hand for generating one tone of portland cement, nearly one ton of carbon dioxide is released. it shows that 7 percent of the total released carbon dioxide in the world relates to the cement industry. considering ecological issu...

The objective behind Tangible User Interfaces (TUIs) is to allow users to interact with computers through familiar tangible objects, thereby taking advantage of the richness of the tactile world combined with the power of computer-based simulations. TUIs “give physical form to digital information, employing physical artifacts both as representations and controls for computational media” [1]. Th...

CHALMERS Face verification using biometric hashing

Face-based biometrics approach has proved to be robust and efficient for verification systems (comparison with a reference database). While it opens the door to a range of applications principally aimed at securing areas, it fails to get its way to high-security systems, such as banking transactions. In this thesis, we outline an attempt to take a first step in the latter direction, by generati...
