Abstract Habitat restoration is a necessary component of wildlife conservation in anthropogenic landscapes. To ensure initiatives achieve the desired effects on communities, it useful to investigate how animals use landscape features. Understanding relationships between and ecological cues provides specific measurable targets that can be used measure success. In western Canada, linear feature n...

Hepatitis B antigen (HB Ag) has been purified from serum by pepsin digestion and equilibrium sedimentation. The sedimentation coefficient, density, particle size, and electrophoretic mobility have been determined before and after purification and found to be unaltered. In addition, the diffusion constant and molecular weight of purified HB Ag have been documented. Because the biophysical charac...

The 1958 symposium of the Biochemical Society consists of seven papers given by British biochemists on areas of glutathione (GSH) chemistry and biochemistry. The topics presented may be listed briefly: chemistry of GSH, techniques for determining GSH, oxidation-reduction systems associated with GSH in plant tissues, GSH in animal tissues, and neural tissues, and in lens, and finally the effect ...

The structure of a protein-protein interaction, its affinity and thermodynamic characteristics depict a 'frozen' state of a complex. This picture ignores the kinetic nature of complex formation and dissociation, which are of major biological and biophysical interest. This review highlights recent advances in deciphering the kinetic pathway of protein-protein complexation, the nature of the enco...

Understanding the dependence of observables on biophysical parameters is crucial for a correct exploitation of the information embedded in the SAR data. In this contribution we report on the sensitiveness that the polarimetric and interferometric phase presents versus forest parameters. Different characteristics of the acquisition sensor are also included in the analysis. We use a detailed cohe...
