Orthogonal arrays are found on plasma membranes of glial cells, in the central nervous system, on muscle plasma membranes at neuromuscular junctions, and on a variety of epithelial cells. These structures have been correlated with ion flux. With the aid of freeze fracture technique, orthogonal particle arrays were found on plasma membranes on airway epithelial cells of rats and hamsters. They h...

A new `Wavelet Energeti s' te hnique, based on `best-shift' orthonormal wavelet analysis (OWA) of a given instantaneous synopti map, is onstru ted for diagnosing nonlinear kineti -energeti transfers in observed blo king ases. Best-shift analysis represents longitudinal varian e of latitude-mean blo king stru tures at 50 kPa mu h more eÆ iently than does standard OWA, even for stru tures evolvin...

Membrane inlet sensor techniques allow online, real-time and in situ analyses of gases during the investigation of aquatic environments. Of specific interest for research and applied objectives are quantifications of gases like methane, higher hydrocarbons, carbon dioxide, nitrogen, volatile organic compounds, and pollutants. For these objectives, membrane inlet systems are coupled to optical o...

Phonological speech errors are a traditional source of evidence for phonological units like features and segments in both phonological and psycholinguistic theory. Assumptions about the unitary nature of speech errors have been brought into question by research that found evidence for sub-featural errors in speech production [Mowrey & MacKay (1990), Phonological primitives: Electro-myographic s...

background: current anti-cancer drug therapy results in systemic side effects due to non-specific uptake by normal healthy noncancerous tissues. to alleviate this difficulty, many attempts have been devoted to the development of new delivery systems such as polymeric nanoparticles (nps). in this study, we prepared icd-85 nps based on sodium alginate and analyzed the cytotoxic activity of icd-85...

This essay argues that Ælfric’s discussion of priestly marriage demonstrates an Anglo-Saxon articulation of the difference between Jews and Christians as sexual difference. Ælfric represents temporally distant Biblical Jews as embodying a kinship-based heterosexuality that has been superseded by and is now opposed by Christian chastity and asexual reproduction. This supersession operates throug...

In the present paper we will address two issues. First, are the units of speech static targets or dynamically specified gestures? The available evidence favors the conclusion that dynamic signal attributes play an important role in speech perception, However, the perceptual significance of speech dynamics does not compel us to conclude that the input to the speech production system is dynamic (...

Twin pregnancy constitutes significant risks for maternal and fetal health, which is usually detected by ultrasound examination at early gestation. However, the imaging-based approach may not accurately identify all twins confounded practical or clinical variables. The analysis of cell-free DNA in noninvasive prenatal screening assays can completement method twin detection, differentiates frate...
