[1] Assessing the sensitivity of annual streamflow to precipitation is challenging due to the complexity of the processes that control the water balance. A low-dimensional model can be useful to interrogate data in regional assessments of a large number of catchments, and can provide insights into the broad similarities and differences between catchments’ behaviors. This work assesses the sensi...

We investigate two-proton correlation functions for reactions in which fast dynamical and slow evaporative proton emission are both present. In such cases, the width of the correlation peak provides the most reliable information about the source size of the fast dynamical component. The maximum of the correlation function is sensitive to the relative yields from the slow and fast emission compo...

The aim of this study was to determine the association of n-acetyltransferase-2 polymorphisms and anti-tuberculosis drug-induced hepatotoxicity in Iranian pulmonary tuberculosis patients. Acetylating phenotypes was studied in 50 Iranian pulmonary tuberculosis patients using metabolic ratio of plasma acetyl-Isoniazid to Isoniazid. The association between hepatotoxicity and the n-acetyltransferas...

Excitatory postsynaptic currents (EPSCs) were induced in layer II-V pyramidal cells in the frontal cortex of the young rat (postnatal day 14-21) by stimulation of layers II/III in the presence of bicuculline using the whole-cell patch-clamp technique. EPSCs usually consisted of fast and slow components that were sensitive to CNQX and APV, respectively. In response to paired stimuli of identical...

Within individual bacteria, we combine force-dependent polymerization dynamics of individual MreB protofilaments with an elastic model of protofilament bundles buckled into helical configurations. We use variational techniques and stochastic simulations to relate the pitch of the MreB helix, the total abundance of MreB, and the number of protofilaments. By comparing our simulations with mean-fi...

The aim of this paper is to study a transparent birefringent sample with a polarizer microscope, we measure orientation of optic axis of the sample and phase retardation. We make a polarizer microscope using a generated polarized beam. With a Mach-Zehnder setup we control polarized state of the beam. We use a Spatial Light Modulator to modulate X and Y components independently. The polarized be...
