The dramatic tumor regression observed following adoptive T cell transfer in some patients has led to attempts to identify novel Ags to understand the nature of these responses. Nearly complete regression of multiple metastatic melanoma lesions was observed in patient 1913 following adoptive transfer of autologous tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes. The autologous 1913 melanoma cell line expressed ...

To validate the HPLC determination of the active pharmaceutical ingredient TAMO in tablets a first calibration set, I, (Table 1, 2nd line) was measured. The experimentally obtained counts are listed in Table 1, 3rd line. In this challenge we tested whether you could detect an outlier in the linear regression function. An outlier shows an unusually high or low residual. The residuals ei are the ...

A survey of some recent results on nonparametric on-line estimation is presented. The first result deals with an on-line estimation for a smooth signal S(t) in the classic ‘signal plus Gaussian white noise’ model. Then an analogous on-line estimator for the regression estimation problem with equidistant design is described and justified. Finally some preliminary results related to the on-line e...

two organochlorine, one organophosphate, two carbamate and two pyrethroid insecticides have been studied for their comparative study against fieldcollected an.pulcherrimus. the trail was conducted in ghasreghand district, sistan and baluchistan province, southeastern iran using who impregnated papers at the diagnostic dose. results revealed that this species exhibit resistant to 0.4% dieldrin (...

Angus bulls and heifers from lines divergently selected for serum IGF-I concentration were used to evaluate the effects of IGF-I selection line on growth performance and feed efficiency in 2 studies. In study 1, bulls (low line, n = 9; high line, n = 8; initial BW = 367.1 +/- 22.9 kg) and heifers (low line, n = 9; high line, n = 13; initial BW = 286.4 +/- 28.6 kg) were adapted to a roughage-bas...

Second line antiretroviral therapy (ART) regimen is used when patients fail their first line regimen. There are many factors such as non-adherence, drug resistance as well as virological and immunological failure that lead to second line highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) regimen treatment failure. This study was aimed at determining predictor factors to treatment failure with second ...

The characterization of plant nutrients is important to understand the process of plant growth in natural ecosystems. This study attempted to evaluate the performances of univariate linear regression with various vegetation indices (VIs) and multivariate regression methods in estimating grass nutrients (i.e., nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P)) with canopy hyperspectral reflectance. Synthetically ...

An experiment was designed to study the influence of selection for increased 16-wk BW (F line), egg production (E line), and shank width (FL line) in turkeys on length of the incubation period and to estimate the influence of adult BW (BW50) and egg weight on the incubation period. The base populations for the F, FL, and E lines were randombred control (RBC)2, F, and RBC1, respectively. An addi...
