The best stories have endings that are not endings. Children's Laureate is an ever changing, never ending story.

This review summarizes the results on aromaticity of a series synthesized and hypothetical neutral heterocirculene molecules their double charged ions. The heterocirculenes is direct reflection electronic structure responsible for specific optoelectronic photophysical properties. We show how presence heteroatom in outer macrocycle affects hetero[8]circulenes. In addition, we also describe chang...

If n points are sampled independently from an absolutely continuous distribution with support a convex subset of <2, then the center and radius of the ball determined by the bounding median lines (the LP yolk) converge with probability one to the center and radius of the yolk. The linear program of [9] is therefore an effective heuristic for computing the yolk in large samples. This result part...

This study was conducted to estimate the genetic parameters influencing egg quality in Khorasan Razavi native fowl. (Co)Variance components were estimated by the Bayesian statistical method via Gibbs sampling in GIBBS3F90 software. 1000 eggs (28-29 weeks old) were collected from 775 hens of the ninth generation of Khorasan-Razavi Province native fowl breeding center. External (egg weight,specif...

The hetero-interfaces between the perovskite (La1 xSrx)CoO3 (LSC113) and the Ruddlesden-Popper (La1 xSrx)2CoO4 (LSC214) phases have recently been reported to exhibit fast oxygen exchange kinetics. Vertically aligned nanocomposite (VAN) structures offer the potential for embedding a high density of such special interfaces in the cathode of a solid oxide fuel cell in a controllable and optimized ...

Yolk spheres present in mature invertebrate oocytes are composed of yolk proteins and proteolytic enzymes. In the fly Musca domestica, yolk proteins are degraded during embryogenesis by a cathepsin-like proteinase that is stored as a zymogen. An acid phosphatase is also active in the yolk spheres during Musca embryogenesis. In this paper we show that procathepsin and acid phosphatase are initia...

The correlation of yolk cholesterol and yolk fat concentrations of egg from the pedigreed Athens-Canadian Randombred control population with the percentage of abdominal fat (AF) and feed conversion ratio (FCR) of their progeny were studied. The average yolk cholesterol, yolk fat, and AF were 20.3 mg/g yolk, 244 mg/g yolk, and 1.64%, respectively. The phenotypic correlation of both yolk choleste...

The discovery by Schwabl that maternal steroid hormones are transferred to the egg yolk and have effects on the phenotype of offspring revealed a new pathway for non-genetic maternal effects. The initial model relied on passive transfer. The thinking was that steroids passively entered the lipophillic yolk during yolk deposition and then were deposited in the yolk until they were passively deli...

the present research was designed to examine the genetic analysis of egg weight, egg yolk weight and egg albumen weight of bovan neva black laying hens at 25, 51 and 72 weeks. for this purpose, thirty birds were selected from the layer flock in the babcock university teaching and research farm. they were individually housed in separate labeled battery cage. a total of thirty eggs were collected...
