Molecular typing of twenty-five Pasteurella multocida isolates has been assessed by restriction fragmentlength polymorphism (RFLP) of a species-specific PCR assay. Amplification was based on the gene ompH, encoding a major outer memberane protein. RFLP analysis of the 1.2 kb ompH-amplification usingEcoRI, HindIII and CfoI endonucleases produced 7 different patterns for the twenty fi...

The amplification units in human tumors containing amplified myc genes were examined. The amplification unit in all cases consisted of a large genomic region coamplified with the coding region of the myc genes themselves. In eight independent neuroblastomas containing N-myc amplifications, the amplification unit was estimated to be 290 to 430 kilobases. This amplification unit was highly conser...

This paper presents the preliminary results of an extensive parametric study on seismic response of two-dimensional semi-sine shaped hills to vertically propagating incident P- and SV-waves. Clear perspectives of the induced diffraction and amplification patterns are given by investigation of time-domain and frequency-domain responses. It is shown that site geometry, wave characteristics , and ...

Despite a considerable amount of information concerning chromosomal and molecular abnormalities found in gliomas in adults, relatively little is known regarding these abnormalities in pediatric brain tumors. We have analyzed DNA from 37 primary brain tumors and 4 tumor-derived cell lines for oncogene amplification. Probes utilized represent 11 known oncogenes (erbB1, gli, neu, myc, L-myc, N-myc...

Electron tube amplifiers may make use of either radio-frequency amplification or audio-frequency amplification, or both. Radio-frequency amplification consists in the amplification of the received radio-frequency current before it is detected. The use of radio-frequency amplification makes it possible to receive a very weak signal which can not be heard at all if only audio-frequency amplificat...
