Tissierella creatinophila strain KRE 4T (DSM 6911) is a strictly anaerobic, creatinine-fermenting, and creatine-fermenting organism, which has been isolated from sewage sludge. The draft genome consists of one circular chromosome (2.5 Mb) and harbors 2,533 predicted protein-encoding genes.

It is shown that the existence of a BIB design with parameters v = 2k − 2k+1, b = 2v, r = 2k, k, λ = 1 implies the existence of Hadamard matrices of orders 4v and 8vt, where t is an integer for which an orthogonal design of order 4t and type (t, t, t, t) exists.

The PandaX-4T is a dark matter direct search experiment with dual-phase xenon detector. It located at Jinping underground laboratory in Sichuan, China. In 2.8-ton fiducial mass and energy region of interest (range from 1 to 10 keV), the total electron recoil nuclear backgrounds are estimated be (4.9±0.5) × ?2 mDRU (2.8±0.5) ?4 mDRU. With an exposure 5.6 ton-years, expected sensitivity could rea...

Abstract Neutron-induced nuclear recoil background is critical to dark matter searches in the PandaX-4T liquid xenon experiment. In this study, we investigate features of neutron and evaluate its contribution single scattering events using three methods. The first method fully based on Monte Carlo simulations. last two are data-driven methods that also use multiple signals high energy data. com...

We have examined the role of endogenously produced interleukin (IL) 4 and IL-10 in the regulation of inflammatory and immune reactions in the skin. In these experiments, irritant and contact hypersensitivity (CH) responses were elicited in mice with targeted disruptions of the IL-4 (IL-4T) or IL-10 (IL-10T) gene. Our study showed that IL-4T and wild-type (wt) mice exhibited equivalent responses...

This study investigated the role of the hypogastric nerve and β-adrenergic mechanisms in the inhibition of nociceptive and non-nociceptive reflex bladder activity induced by pudendal nerve stimulation (PNS). In α-chloralose-anesthetized cats, non-nociceptive reflex bladder activity was induced by slowly infusing saline into the bladder, whereas nociceptive reflex bladder activity was induced by...

We prove that there exist only "nitely many nontrivial graphical t-(v; k; ) designs when k 6 4t=3. This improves a previous result of Betten et al. (Discrete Math. 197/198 (1999) 83–109). c © 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved. We use the notation and terminology of [1] and assume that the reader is familiar with the concept of graphical t-designs [2]. All polynomials in this note a...
