BACKGROUND New mode-of-action insecticides are sought to provide continued control of pesticide resistant arthropod vectors of neglected tropical diseases (NTDs). We previously identified antagonists of the AaDOP2 D1-like dopamine receptor (DAR) from the yellow fever mosquito, Aedes aegypti, with toxicity to Ae. aegypti larvae as leads for novel insecticides. To extend DAR-based insecticide dis...

Introduction: Recently, a lot of basaltic shergottites have been found from the desert areas in northern Africa and Middle East Asia. Most of them contain large olivine grains that are not present in the previously known basaltic shergottites (except for EETA79001). These olivine grains are mostly Mg-rich, but they show different mineralogical features in each meteorite. Dar al Gani 476 and its...

We analyze a multiserver queue with a discrete autoregressive process of order 1 (DAR(1)) as an input. DAR(1) is a good mathematical model for VBR-coded teleconference traffic. Based on matrix analytic methods and the theory of Markov regenerative processes, we obtain the stationary distributions of the system size and the waiting time of an arbitrary packet. Numerical examples illustrate the q...
