Scolicidal agents are important in the treatment of cystic echinococcosis. This study evaluated the scolicidal activity of the plant Blepharocalyx salicifolius (H.B.K.) Berg against Echinococcus ortleppi protoscoleces. The parasite species was identified by amplifying a fragment of the gene cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 (COX 1). B. salicifolius crude extract at concentrations of 100, 200, 300 ...

The 6.7)m channel water vapor (WV) images from GOES have been generally used as a tool for synoptic scale weather analysis since their availability in the early 1980's. However, WV images do have mesoscale applications as well. The availability of hourly WV images starting in late 1987 has permitted the monitoring of changes in mid and upper level moisture in the environment of convective storm...

Multispectral imaging (MSI) data acquired at different view angles provide an analyst with a unique view into shallow water. Observations from DigitalGlobe’s WorldView-2 (WV-2) sensor, acquired in 39 images in one orbital pass on 30 July 2011, are being analyzed to determine bathymetry along the windward side of the Oahu coastline. Satellite azimuth and elevation range from 18.8 to 185.8 degree...

Lithium minerals become a sub-economic raw material for lithium production to fulfill the demand. This study is about extraction from mica schist using roasting and leaching processes. The located in Kebumen, Indonesia was used phenomena during process. Sodium sulfate as agent while 0.36 M sulfuric acid agent. Solid/liquid ratio (1:5, 1:10, 1:15 1:20 (g/mL)) time (30, 60, 90 120 minutes) were v...

A direct, simple, and rapid high-performance liquid chromatographic method has been developed for the determination of ethylene-thiourea (ETU) in biological fluids. Samples were chromatographed on a Lichrosorb RP8 (5 pm) column after extraction with dichloromethane. The mobile phase was a mixture of hexane/isopropyl alcohol/ethyl alcohol (93:6:1 v/v) added with 0.6 mL/L butylamine. Detection wa...

In human-to-mouse xenograft models, reconstitution of human hematopoiesis is usually B-lymphoid dominant. Here we show that the introduction of homozygous Kit(Wv) mutations into C57BL/6.Rag2(null)Il2rg(null) mice with NOD-Sirpa (BRGS) strongly promoted human multi-lineage reconstitution. After xenotransplantation of human CD34(+)CD38(-) cord blood cells, these newly generated C57BL/6.Rag2(null)...

W/Wv mice with congenitally defective CFU proliferation and their normal, congenic littermates were used as hosts for diffusion chamber (DC) implants. CFU growth in implanted allogenic CF1, or congenic +/+ marrow was significantly greater in W/Wv than in control hosts. When W/Wv mice were "cured" of their hemopoietic defect, CFU proliferation in the DCs decreased, but not to the control level. ...
