To study the distribution and localization of oil-soluble arteether in experimental mice, we injected C14-labelled arteether (20 microCi/kg body weight) intramuscularly and measured radioactivity in the blood, kidney, and liver. The labelled arteether distributed and localized more to the kidney (819,180.4 +/- 34,134 dpm/cm3) than the liver (288,628.9 +/- 54,954 dpm/cm3) 4 hours post-injection....

Background: Diet is considered as an important contributor to the development of the cancers. In the present study, the association of dietary patterns with gastric cancer risk was studied. Methods: In the present case-control study, 192 newly diagnosed gastric cancer patients and 365 subjects as control group were included. The participants in each group underwent face-to-face interview. For ...

The development of ECL-Plex CyDye-conjugated secondary antibodies allows the advancement of conventional Western blotting, opening up possibilities for highly sensitive and quantitative protein confirmation and identification. We report a novel proteomic method to simultaneously visualise the total protein profile as well as the specific immunodetection of an individual protein species by combi...

The use of radioactive iodine as an indicator in thyroid physiology has been described by Hertz, Roberts and Evans (1) and by Hertz, Roberts, Means and Evans (2, 3). Hamilton and Soley (4) have published data obtained by the use of radioactive iodine on goiter patients of several types. We have administered radioactive iodine (mainly the 8-day isotope I's1), obtained by bombarding tellurium wit...

An abstract deenition of bisimulation is presented. It enables a uniform deenition of bisimulation across a range of diierent models for parallel computation presented as categories. As examples, transition systems, synchronisation trees, transition systems with independence (an abstraction from Petri nets) and labelled event structures are considered. On transition systems the abstract deeniti...

Following the publication of this article, the authors noted that Fig. 1 appeared incorrectly in the journal. Essentially, the figure was reorganized but only the labels for Fig. 1B and C were switched around, with the result that Fig. 1B and C were labelled incorrectly in the paper. The corrected figure is shown here, with the figure parts for Fig. 1B and C now labelled correctly. This error w...
