Measles remains a major cause of child mortality, in part due to an inability to vaccinate young infants with the current live attenuated virus vaccine (LAV). To explore new approaches to infant vaccination, chimeric Venezuelan equine encephalitis/Sindbis virus (VEE/SIN) replicon particles were used to express the hemagglutinin (H) and fusion (F) proteins of measles virus (MV). Juvenile rhesus ...

The notion of S-fuzzy left h-ideals in a hemiring is introduced and it’s basic properties are investigated.We also study the homomorphic image and preimage of S-fuzzy left h-ideal of hemirings.Using a collection of left h-ideals of a hemiring, S-fuzzy left h-ideal of hemirings are established.The notion of a finitevalued S-fuzzy left h-ideal is introduced,and its characterization is given.S-fuz...

Experimental studies evaluated the vector competence of Ochlerotatus taeniorhynchus (Wiedemann), Culex cancer Theobald, Culex pseudes (Dyar and Knab), Culex taeniopus Dyar and Knab, and a Culex (Culex) species, probably Culex quinquefasciatus Say, and Culex nigripalpus Theobald from Chiapas, Mexico, and Tocoa, Honduras, for epizootic (IC) and enzootic (IE) strains of Venezuelan equine encephalo...

The ecology of Venezuelan equine encephalitis (VEE) virus transmission was compared at three enzootic foci: two forest sites in the Catatumbo region of western Venezuela that have yielded small numbers of virus isolates since the 1970s, and another focus in the middle Magdalena Valley of Colombia that has consistently yielded many VEE virus isolates. Our results demonstrated dramatic difference...

The concept of quasi-coincidence of a fuzzy interval value with an interval valued fuzzy set is considered. In fact, this is a generalization of quasi-coincidence of a fuzzy point with a fuzzy set. By using this new idea, the notion of interval valued (∈,∈ ∨q)-fuzzy filters in BL-algebras which is a generalization of fuzzy filters of BL-algebras, is defined, and related properties are investiga...

Abstract In this paper, we have introduced anti fuzzy quasi-ideals, anti fuzzy bi-(generalized bi-) ideals and anti fuzzy left (right, two-sided) ideals in LA-semigroup. Further we have characterized an intra-regular LA-semigroup by the properties of their anti fuzzy left (right, two-sided) ideals, anti fuzzy bi(generalized bi-)ideals, anti fuzzy interior ideals and anti fuzzy quasi-ideals. Fur...

in this paper, by introducing two virtual decision-making units (dmus) called ideal dmu (idmu) and anti-ideal dmu (admu) with fuzzy inputs-outputs, the efficiency evaluation of dmus are done by fuzzy data envelopment analysis (fdea). therefore, we evaluate dmus from the perspective of the best and worst possible relative efficiency. for each dmu two efficiencies are calculated while inputs and ...

In categories related to complete quasi-monoidal lattices, we investigate the relations among (L,♦)-(respectively, (L, )-,(L, )-) fuzzy quasi-uniform spaces, (L, ,∧)-fuzzy topological spaces and (L, ,∧)fuzzy interior spaces induced functions. Mathematics Subject Classification: 54A40, 08A72, 06D72
