Prereduction of the intersystem pool in isolated spinach chloroplasts leads to the appearance of a slow phase in the field-indicating 515-nm change induced by a flash. Measurements with the pH-indicator dye cresol red show that a proton uptake is associated with this slow 515-nm change. When water is the electron donor to photosystem II, electron transfer to ferricyanide is associated with the ...

The potential of borate crystals, BBO, LBO and BiBO, for high average power scaling of optical parametric chirped-pulse amplifiers is investigated. Up-to-date measurements of the absorption coefficients at 515 nm and the thermal conductivities are presented. The measured absorption coefficients are a factor of 10-100 lower than reported by the literature for BBO and LBO. For BBO, a large variat...

INTRODUCTION The aim of the present study was to assess the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) as a method for detecting Trypanosoma cruzi infection in triatomines that had been previously determined by microscopic examination in the State of Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil. METHODS In total, 515 specimens were collected. Material from the digestive tract of each triatomine was analyzed for the prese...

Calcium-/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaM kinase II), a decoder of Ca(2+) signals, and cytosolic phospholipase A(2) (cPLA(2)), an enzyme involved in arachidonate release, are involved in many physiological and pathophysiological processes. Activation of CaM kinase II in norepinephrine-stimulated vascular smooth muscle cells leads to activation of cPLA(2) and arachidonic acid release....

We consider optimal trade policy for a large country with private information. We show that the optimal tariff leads to a signaling equilibrium with higher tariffs and lower welfare than under complete information, whereas the optimal import quota replicates the complete information equilibrium and thus is superior to the tariff. We also show that, with the tariff, the country may be better off...

شرایط اکولوژیک مثل دسترسی به غذای کافی و مناسب از عواملی است که می‌تواند روی رفتار جانوران تاثیرگذار باشد. حشرات مختلفی در زمان گرسنگی سعی می‌کنند تا رفتارهای آمیزشی طول مدت آمیزش را کاهش دهند. هدف این مطالعه، بررسی اثر بر عملکرد کفشدوزک Hippodamia variegata بود. آزمایش، نرها ماده‌های ۱۰ ۱۵ روزه باکره استفاده شد. هر تکرار، یک نر ماده ۳ ساعت (از ۱۲ الی ۱۵) برای کنار هم قرار داده شدند ‌زمان تاخیر...

نوآوری در نتیجه ترکیبی از عناصر دانش سازمان‌ها ظاهر شده و به‌عنوان ماده خام اصلی برای نظر گرفته می‌شود. روش‌های سنتی دیگر اثربخش نیست به رویکردهای جدید همچو نیاز است. هدف پژوهش حاضر ، بررسی تأثیر قابلیت‌های مدیریت بر عملکرد با اثر میانجی باز است که 25 واحد‌ فناور مستقر «پارک فناوری پردیس» واقع شهر پردیس استان تهران نیمه دوم سال 1399 موردبررسی قرار گرفت. به‌منظور جمع‌آوری داده‌ها ابزار پرسشنامه ...

Abstract Background Increasing studies have revealed that circular RNAs (CircRNAs) make great contributions to regulating tumor progression. Therefore, we intended explore the expression characteristics, function, and related mechanisms of a novel type circRNA, PIP5K1A, in glioma. Methods Firstly, reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) was carried out examine CircPIP5K1A gliom...
