The study of the antigenic properties of lipoidai substances extracted from antigenic material by alcohol, ether, or other fat solvents has included investigation of the significance of lipoidal constituents of the red blood cell in the formation of lysins and agglutinins, the action of alcoholic extracts of organs in the production of heterogenetic antibodies and their reaction with Forssman's...

A critical question remains open if the compiler can understand the distribution pattern of pointer-based distributed objects built by application programmers, and perf o r m optimization as effectively as the HPF compiler does with distributed arrays. In this paper, we address this challenging issue. In our work, we f irs t present a parallel programming model whzch allows application programm...

In an earlier t reatment [Destro & Marsh (1987). Acta Cryst. A43, 711-718], an at tempt was made to predict the shapes of high-angle 0-20 scan profiles by convoluting a low-angle profile with the presumedly known spectral distr ibution function for the incident (crys ta l -monochromat ized Mo K a ) radiation but it was found necessary to introduce a third component, an 'aberrat ion funct ion ' ...

The at tempt to give form and substance to various possibilities suggested by a study of thermal increments at present calls for an increase in the available data. I t is necessary to analyze a greater array of biological processes in a greater variety of forms. Since the fauna at Naples affords abundant opportunities for investigations of this character, a number of organisms fairly common the...

IN THE BEGINNING the authors discuss the high type of imperforate anus because they say the low type presents "no real problem in achieving continence." They ment ion a report by Partridge and Gough 4 in which they found that "only half the survivors of high anomalies had adequate continence." They say that factors involved in continence are specific sensation of the rectum and anal canal, and ...

This paper is intended to lay out for broader discussion some arguments for the importance of data in work in generative syntax. These are accepted by many linguists, but a significant number of others still seem reluctant to accept them. The basic claim is that it is no longer tenable for syntactic theories to be constructed on the evidence of a single person’s judgements, and that real progre...

The association of the dysentery bacillus with diarrhoea in infants is now established. Previous studies on the subject from this laboratory having proven this occurrence, we undertook as our present thesis the separation from the dejecta of all bacteria which could be cultivated, and which agglutiinated with the patient's blood, exhibited pathogenic properties for laboratory animals, or belong...

for benign esophageal stricture for pa− tients in whom surgery is not feasible [1]. Repeated bougienage by the patients themselves, “self−dilation,” has been proven safe and effective [2]. The major complication of bougienage is esophageal perforation, although the incidence is only 0.04 %±0.2 % [3]. Case. A 74−year−old man, diagnosed as achalasia 7 years ago, underwent routine Maloney esophage...

No group of bacteria has been suspected of etiologic relationship with so many and diversified disease processes as the streptococcus. At the same time there is no group which suffers more confusion hi the relationship of its numerous members. The purpose of the present work was t o at tempt a classification of twenty-eight strains of non-hemolytic streptococci by a comparative study of their b...

Dear Sir: In our work (1) we have made use o f Stein and Lieb's (2) approach to obtain values of ratios o f molecular rate constants related to t ranspor t steps. In o rd e r to rationalize ou r results we assumed at the t ime that in equi l ibr ium-exchange conditions the concent ra t ion o f the carrier-substrate complex was h igher at the external surface of the cell and that the tu rnover r...
