In developing epithelia, the core planar polarity proteins physically interact with each other and localize asymmetrically at opposite cell ends, forming intercellular complexes that link the polarity of neighboring cells. Using quantitative imaging to examine the composition of the core protein complex in vivo, we find that complex composition is unexpectedly plastic. The transmembrane protein...

In this article results of first Russian study on premature infants body composition in association with trend of their physical development within the first month and according to way of feeding. 30 preterm newborns without signs of intrauterine hypotrophy at birth with gestational age less than 35 month were examined by air body plethysmography. The infants were examined reaching term correct...

National experience shows that 50 percent of physicians change positions within the first 2 years of practice. Because of market pressures, medicine in general and plastic surgery in particular are shifting away from solo practice. The authors examine the primary reasons for turnover and discuss job search priorities for recent plastic surgery graduates and established surgeons in job transitio...

The search for beauty and its value has been a discussion topic since the ancient Greeks composed their myths. The advent of safer and more advanced modern plastic surgery techniques and the spread of aesthetic medicine have renewed the search for beauty. Today, beauty seems possible, accessible, and more demo­ cratic than ever before [1]. To be beautiful is going to become an imperative, and f...

UNLABELLED The accuracy with which (123)I activity is measured by a dose calibrator depends on the composition and geometry of the source. The present study assessed the variability of current commercial dose calibrators in assaying liquid (123)I samples. METHODS A calibration procedure for (123)I measurement was performed on 177 dose calibrators (11 manufacturers) at 138 sites in North Ameri...

Biodegradable plastic is made by mixing from temu ireng rhizomes starch matrix, sorbitol as a plasticizer, and chitosan filler through the melt intercalation method. heating process at 800C drying 70oC. The results show that addition of has an effect on characteristics plastic. best tensile strength biodegradable with mass composition starch: 5:5 gram without 4.03 MPa. percentage elongation in ...

Plastic pollution continues to worsen globally in volume and complexity. The complexity plastic production, use disposal is significant, highlighting the importance of clear communication consumers. Yet despite this, poor labelling clear, evident from waste management metrics even most equipped countries. must change contribute a holistic intervention on global mismanagement. Discussion this to...

The chemical composition, in situ ruminal degradability coefficients of dry matter (DM), and nutrient digestibility in sheep were evaluated for corn silage (CS) treated (fresh weight basis) with different levels of a commercial bacterial inoculant (I) as follows: (1) untreated CS (control); (2) CS + I at half of the recommended level; (3) CS + I at the recommended level (3  1010 colony forming...
