In this paper, we present a critique of the uniform treatment of nominal and adverbial quantification in van der Sandt’s binding theory of presuppositions. We develop an alternative account of adverbial quantification framed in terms of Beaver’s reconstruction of Karttunen’s satisfaction theory. This account provides a simpler characterization of adverbial quantification that does not require r...

Using selenomethionine to phase macromolecular structures is common practice in structure determination, along with the use of selenocysteine. Selenium is consequently the most commonly used heavy atom for MAD. In addition to the well established recombinant techniques for the incorporation of selenium in prokaryal expression systems, there have been recent advances in selenium labelling in euk...

This review discusses recent developments in the field of nanosized biomaterials and their use in tissue regeneration approaches. The aim is to provide an overview of the research focused on nanoparticle-based strategies to stimulate regeneration. In particular, nanoparticles improve the regenerative capabilities of biomaterials offering ways to control surface and mechanical properties. Moreov...

To define a model for enzyme latency in vitro, the capture was studied of egg white lysozyme by liposomes (phospholipid spherules in the smectic mesophase). Gel filtration resolved liposomes formed in the absence of enzyme from free enzyme when both were chromatographed immediately after mixing. In contrast, if liposomes were swollen in the presence of lysozyme, subsequent chromatography disclo...

Exotic germplasm refers to crop varieties unadapted to a breeder’s target environment, and is an important resource for crop improvement. Because genetic diversity within elite cultivars of a crop is limited compared to the variability within the species and its relatives worldwide, genes from exotic germplasm can protect the crop against new biotic and abiotic stresses, and may represent uniqu...

Noun-incorporation structures (e.g. Mithun, 1984, Baker, 1988) have been investigated in detail by semanticists in recent years. Much of this work has centered around a notion of “semantic incorporation” (van Geenhoven, 1998), the semantic correlate of incorporation structures. A theory of semantic incorporation is necessary to account for a consistent constellation of semantic effects associat...

Thyme Essential oils (EO) with antimicrobial and antioxidant properties are widely used in pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and perfume industry. It is also used for flavoring and preservation of several foods. Nowadays, packaging research is receiving a considerable attention due to the development of eco-friendly materials made from natural polymers such as starch and chitosan. In this study Thymus ...

The term incorporation canonically refers to cases of complementation in which a theme argument, lacking functional structure, is syntactically fused with the verb. In this pristine form incorporation appears to be a close kin of word-level compounding. Recently, however, the term has been extended to apply to structures in which the theme argument is realized as a full blown noun phrase and sh...

Lividomycin inhibited incorporation of acetate-114C , glutamic acid-1-14C, leucine-1-14C, and glycine1-14C into protein of Mycobacterium smegmatis (strain Jucho). Incorporation of acetate-1-14C and glycine1-14C into nucleic acids was also inhibited, but incorporation of these compounds into lipids was not inhibited in the presence of lividomycin. Incorporation of uridine-2-14C into nucleic acid...
