In the framework of a monitoring program harmful microalgae from marine coastal waters Buenos Aires Province, seven strains were isolated and characterized by morphological molecular analysis (LSU rDNA partial sequencing, D1–D3 regions). Established belonged to Alexandrium catenella, Protoceratium reticulatum Pseudo-nitzschia multiseries. The toxinological profile target determined UHPLC-FLD eq...

In annotating measure expressions such as three days and about 123 km, two recently published ISO standards, ISO-TimeML (ISO, 2012b) and ISOspace (ISO, 2014a), show some inconsistencies, as pointed out in ISO SemAF Principles (ISO, 2014c), a third ISO standards on semantic annotation to be published soon. Other than terminological or semantic inconsistencies introduced in ISO SemAF Principles, ...

Sympathetic nerve activity increases in the heart during cardiac failure. Here, we hypothesized that 1 integrins play a protective role in chronic -adrenergic receptor–stimulated cardiac myocyte apoptosis and heart failure. L-isoproterenol (iso; 400 g/kg per hour) was infused in a group of wild-type (WT) and 1 integrin heterozygous knockout (hKO) mice. Left ventricular structural and functional...

By means of EPR spectroscopy the behaviour of the vanadocene dichloride (I), Cp(2)VCl(2) (Cp=eta(5)-C(5)H(5)), in various deoxygenated and non-deoxygenated physiological media and therapeutic solution as well as in blood plasma and stabilized human blood was studied. On the basis of measured values of isotropic spectroscopic splitting factor g(iso) and isotropic hyperfine coupling constant A(is...

Previous studies in halothane-anesthetized rat documented potent electroencephalographic (EEG) modulatory actions of the locus coeruleus (LC) noradrenergic system, with LC neuronal activity causally related to the maintenance of EEG activity patterns associated with enhanced arousal/alertness. Recent studies, also in halothane-anesthetized rat, demonstrated that the region of the basal forebrai...

2',3'-iso-Benzoabscisic acid (iso-PhABA), an excellent selective abscisic acid (ABA) analog, was developed in our previous work. In order to find its more structure-activity information, some structural modifications were completed in this paper, including the substitution of phenyl ring and replacing the ring with heterocycles. Thus, 16 novel analogs of iso-PhABA were synthesized and screened ...

Problem statement: The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) published a set of international standards related to the software engineering, such as ISO 12207 and ISO 9126. However, there is a set of cross-references between these two standards. Approach: The ISO 9126 on software product quality and ISO 12207 on software life cycle processes had been analysed to investigate the r...

Background: Hospital standards are one of the valuest concepture items in an organization and hospital management. The research purpose was determination of luchs of hospital evaluation current way throght the comparission with ISO quality management standards and suggestion of a model to hospital standard development based on aquired findings. Materials & Methods: This research is a descripti...
