Brazilian dairy Gir (Bos indicus) cattle are a tropical, well-adapted breed, for which no information on the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) is presently available. The second exon of the bovine lymphocyte antigen (BoLA-DRB3) was amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) of DNA samples from 28 Brazilian dairy Gir cows. Two experimental genotyping approaches were used: direct sequencin...

Recently, spectroscopic and calorimetric observations of hydrogen plasmas and chemical reactions with them have been interpreted as evidence for the existence of electronic states of the hydrogen atom with a binding energy of more than 13.6 eV. The theoretical basis for such states, that have been dubbed hydrinos, is investigated. We discuss both, the novel deterministic model of the hydrogen a...

Synthetic cannabinoid drugs do not cross react on traditional marijuana immunoassay tests, preventing their use in large scale drug screening programs. This paper describes the validation and performance characteristics of two enzyme linked immunosorbent assays designed to detect the use of two common synthetic cannabinoids in urine, JWH-018 and JWH-250. The JWH-018 assay has significant cross-...

Fixation durations in reading are longer for within-word fixation positions close to word center than for positions near word boundaries. This counterintuitive result was termed the Inverted-Optimal Viewing Position (IOVP) effect. We proposed an explanation of the effect based on error-correction of mislocated fixations [Nuthmann, A., Engbert, R., & Kliegl, R. (2005). Mislocated fixations durin...

Highly efficient PDMS based membranes with a new type of fluorinated MOF-808 were successfully prepared and used for the first time in pervaporation (PV). Two types ligands i.e. trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) pentafluoropropionic (PFPA) during MOF synthesis. These slightly different size chemical character influenced material properties membranes, roughness, contact angle, surface free energy, ther...

This article outlines and discusses Brazil's new regulations on the use of human biological materials for research, specifically, Resolution CNS 441/11, enacted by the National Health Council of Brazil in May 2011, and the National Guidelines for Biorepositories and Biobanks (Ordinance No. 2201) published by the Ministry of Health in September 2011. The authors examine the differences between s...
