As Internet traffic increases, large communication capacity is required in optical communication systems. For the client side of DWDM *1 (dense wavelength division multiplexing) systems, the baud rate of current optical communication is mainly 10 Gbit/s, which has already been used in 10G Ethernet. However, these systems will be insufficient for the accelerated traffic increase expected in the ...

Mutants of human respiratory syncytial (RS) virus which escaped neutralization by monoclonal antibodies directed against the G glycoprotein were selected from the Long strain. Most mutants showed drastic antigenic changes, reflected in the lack of reactivity with several anti-G antibodies, including the one used for selection. Sequence analysis revealed the presence of in-frame premature stop c...

Physiological description of fiber implies that dietary fiber is a plant subunit that is not being degraded to absorbable subunits in the small intestine by alimentary enzymes found in human beings [1]. Generally, dietary fibers are non-starch polysaccharides including cellulose, hemicellulose, lignin, pectin, gum and mucilage and non-polysaccharide (lignin). Health benefits of the consumption ...

Highly active antagonistic actinomycete Streptomyces griseoviridis and entomopathogenic fungus Beauveria bassiana were applied to the soil separately and together (in association) in the laboratory experiments. We assessed survival rate, insecticidal and fungistatic activity of these strains. We also tested the influence of synthetic insecticide Regent 25® (fipronil 25g/l) on investigated param...

Retraction notice for the article that appeared on page 128 of the January 2015 issue of the Pancreas journal. The randomized trial involved 72 patients between two participating centers. The published article includes 100 patients. The authors added 28 patients to show statistically that there was no difference in the main outcomes measures despite changing the sample size to 100 patients. The...

BACKGROUND Presence of subretinal abscess in endogenous endophthalmitis indicates a more severe form of infection. Available reports indicate variable response to standard treatment with systemic, intravitreal pharmacotherapy and vitreous surgery. There are no reports citing the possible role of intralesional antibiotic therapy in managing subretinal abscess. CASE PRESENTATION A 30 year old l...

The objective of this examination is to decide the predominance Campylobacter spp. in some chicken cuts and giblets items by utilizing both ordinary sub-atomic techniques. zoontic spp.widelyhus,120 item tests (25g each) were gathered from different general stores at Menofia legislature breast, thigh, liver gizzard. Most examples defiled with species demonstrated most elevated pollution (56.67%)...
