A total of 112 rabies virus-infected skunk brain samples from naturally occurring cases (64 from Missouri, 48 from Kentucky) were code labeled and grouped into two morphologic categories according to the appearance and size of the discrete particles observed by immunofluorescent-antibody staining. The reactivity of the blind-labeled samples was then determined using a panel of 23 antinucleocaps...

A classical theory is developed which calculates the momentum transfer rate constant between an ion and a non-polar molecule. The model takes into consideration the effect of diffraction outside the capture limit on the rate constants. The theory is used to calculate momentum transfer rate constant for Cl- with trans-dichloroethylene and para-difluorobenzene. Theoretical results ...

We propose a non-linear, hybrid quantum-classical scheme for simulating non-equilibrium dynamics of strongly correlated fermions described by the Hubbard model in a Bethe lattice in the thermodynamic limit. Our scheme implements non-equilibrium dynamical mean field theory (DMFT) and uses a digital quantum simulator to solve a quantum impurity problem whose parameters are iterated to self-consis...

The study of 1:1 cyclodextrin inclusion compounds by isothermal titration calorimetry was explored in a theoretical and experimental point of view to compare the efficiency of conventional and non-conventional experiments. All direct and competitive protocols were described and evaluated in terms of accuracy on both binding constant and inclusion enthalpy. Significant improvement in the calorim...

to use soil hydrology processes (shp) models, which have increasingly extended during the last years, comprehensive knowledge about these models and their modeling approaches seems to be necessary. the modeling approaches can be categorized as either classical or non-classical. classical approaches mainly model the shp through solving the general unsaturated flow (richards) equation, numericall...

Sir, The recent Brain publication (Dalakas et al., 2009) describing a clinical study of alemtuzumab in patients with inclusion body myositis nicely demonstrates the feasibility of enrolling and following a cohort of these patients over a long period of time as participants in an intervention study. The authors state that ‘in [inclusion body myositis] one series of alemtuzumab infusions can slow...
