Diaries have long been seen as tools for reflection in learning languages, and learning about teaching. Despite this recognition of the importance of narratives in diary writing, little attention has been paid to the role of research diaries in the process of learning about research, and learning how to be a researcher. During the author’s own research into the construction of teaching knowledg...

Bisphosphonates are currently the most important class of antiresorptive drugs used for the treatment of diseases with excess bone resorption. Their pharmacokinetic properties are characterized by low oral absorption, very rapid and effective deposition in bone mineral, and the non bone-bound fraction is excreted unchanged into urine. Thus, bisphosphonates are naturally targeted to their site o...

According to this ar+icle, mos+ techniques of market segmentation rely only on DESCRIPTIVE factors pertaining to purchasers and are not efficient predictors of future buyer behavior. The author proposes an approach whereby market segments are delineated first on the basis of factors with a CAUSAL relationship to future purchase behavior. The belief underlying this segmentat ion strategy is that...

Researchers over the past 40 years have utilized bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) as a tool to help expand our knowledge of pulmonary medicine. Many reports have documented BAL as a safe procedure for research subjects. New technologies, such as flow cytometry, have provided much needed insight into the mechanisms behind several pulmonary diseases. The concept of the lung as an easily accessible mu...

At Leiden Embedded Research Center (LERC), we are building a tool chain called Compaan/Laura that allows us to map fast and efficiently applications written in Matlab onto reconfigurable platforms. In this chain, first the Matlab code is converted automatically to executable Kahn Process Network (KPN) specification. Then a tool called Laura accepts this specification and transforms the specific...

We describe the current status of CATS (astrophysical CATalogs Support system), a publicly accessible tool maintained at Special Astrophysical Observatory of the Russian Academy of Sciences (SAO RAS) (http://cats.sao.ru) allowing one to search hundreds of catalogs of astronomical objects discovered all along the electromagnetic spectrum. Our emphasis is mainly on catalogs of radio continuum sou...

Rationalisation of biomarkers using the conventional histopathological procedure is time consuming, laborious and pricey especially, when several markers are to be tested on various specimens. So, TMA is expected to surmount these substantial problems [3]. Tissue microarrays are produced by harvesting cylindrical tissue core...

Indian Journal of Clinical Medicine 2013:4 9 Abstract: Monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) are an old immunological tool with applications in the fields of immunology, biotechnology, biochemistry, and applied biology. Production of monoclonal antibodies using hybridoma technology was discovered in 1975 by Georges Kohler of West Germany and Cesar Milstein of Argentina. Modern-day research on MAbs from ...
