Blood transfusion centers are under considerable pressure to produce platelet concentrates with a shelf life limit of 3 to 5 days. Many approaches have been investigated experimentally to produce new hemostatically active platelet products that are capable of long term storage. In this article infusible platelet membrane will be explained as a platelet substitute versus conventional liquid-stor...

In this paper, I will report on an experimental study investigating the Bare Noun/Proper Name parameter (Longobardi 1991, 1994, 1996, 2001, to appear) and its L2 acquisition. It has been noticed that English and Italian mass or bare plural nouns (bare nouns, BNs) have identical syntactic form and distribution, but differ in available interpretations, the Italian meaning being a subset of the En...

Autistic face processing difficulties are either uniquely social or due to a piecemeal cognitive "style." Co-morbidity of social deficits and piecemeal cognition in autism makes teasing apart these accounts difficult. These traits vary normally, and are more separable in the general population, suggesting another way to compare accounts. Participants completed the Autism Quotient survey of auti...

the prevalence of spinal cord injury (sci) is about 2.5 million in the worldwide and more than 130,000 new injuries reported each year. regeneration in the cns versus the pns is very different from the other tissues and many factors can prevent regeneration in pns and specially cns. previous researches demonstrated that regeneration of cns can inhibit by inhibitory molecules and glial scar. the...

The objective of this work is to provide a simple and yet efficient tool to detect human faces in video sequences. This information can be very useful for many applications such as video indexing and video browsing. In particular the paper will focus on the significant improvements made to our face detection algorithm presented in [l]. Specifically, a novel approach to retrieve skin-like homoge...

Motto texts will cause some logical and practical difficulties, when they are to be prefixed to chapter headings. To solve them, the motto text should be specified after the chapter heading. To allow for a variety of contained constructs such as footnotes or verbatims, this text must not be read as an ordinary parameter. These antagonistic goals are reconciled in a construct which looks like a ...
