Low-angle X -ray diffraction experiments w ith living relaxed and contracting guinea-pig taenia coli muscles have led to the discovery of a m eridional reflexion a t about 14.3 nm whose presence establishes the existence of a regular assembly of myosin molecules in the form of filamentous elements (Lowy, Poulsen & V ibert 1970). From m easurem ents of the shape of the 14.3 nm reflexion it is po...

Using the first nationally representative detailed income data for India from the 2005 India Human Development Survey (IHDS), Desai and colleagues (2010) reported Indian income inequality to have the high levels typical for lowand middle-income countries. The IHDS Gini of 0.52 puts India at a similar level as Brazil (0.49) and well above the levels observed even in the most unequal high-income ...

The transverse patterning (TP) task (A+ B-, B+ C-, C+ A-) has played a central role in testing the hypothesis that medial-temporal (and, in particular, hippocampal) brain damage selectively impairs learning on at least some classes of configural (i.e., nonlinear) learning tasks. Results in the animal and human literature generally support that hypothesis. Reed and Squire [Impaired transverse pa...

Anatase-to-rutile phase transformation was studied in milled and unmilled samples. Ball milling was carried out in two types of ball mills, planetary and tumbler, with a ball-to-powder ratio of 40:1 over 2-48 hours. First, the unmilled samples &#10were heated in the furnace at various temperatures for different periods of time. The results revealed that the anatase-to-rutile transformation comp...

The kinetics and mechanism of bainite transformation have been studied in Fe-Cr-Mo-V-Ti-C steel high speed dilatometry backed by thermodynamic analysis. The complete transformation of austenite, however, has not occurred at any reported temperature. Obtained results confirm the incomplete reaction phenomenon with the cessation of the bainite transformation well before the paraequilibrium is ach...

background: a highly efficient genetic transformation system is essential for a successful genetic manipulation of the african violet (saintpaulia ionantha wendl.).objectives: developing a particle bombardment-based genetic transformation system for the african violet.materials and methods: a local cultivar of the african violet from guilan province was used for transformation experiments. the ...
