Chimeric plasmids containing the uvsY uvsW region of the T4 genome were examined for the expression of these genes. Certain of these plasmids were shown to express the uvsY or the uvsW gene products by their ability to complement the UV sensitivity of infecting uvsW or uvsY mutant phage. Also, a chimeric plasmid containing both the uvsW and uvsY genes increases the survival of UV-irradiated, me...

This report provides an overview of the exposure assessment process for an epidemiologic study that investigated mortality, with a special focus on lung cancer, associated with diesel exhaust (DE) exposure among miners. Details of several components are provided in four other reports. A major challenge for this study was the development of quantitative estimates of historical exposures to DE. T...

ABSTRACT REC (Regular Expression Compiler) is a concise programming language development in mayor Mexican Universities at end of 60’s which allows students to write programs without knowledge of the complicated syntax of languages like FORTRAN and ALGOL. The language is recursive and contains only four elements for control. This paper describes use of the interpreter of REC written in FORTRAN o...

The University of California Santa Cruz team submitted three runs for the TREC Blog Track opinion mining task. We developed a two stage retrieval system. We started with retrieving relevant documents from the corpus for each topic, and then ran each retrieved document through a classifier to estimate the probability that the document contains opinion expressions. The documents were ranked accor...

Purpose: This study was designed to evaluate the diagnostic value of digital Bitewing (BW) radiographs with and without horizontal tube shift in detecting Residual excess cement (REC) on proximal non-proximal surfaces implant restorations. Material Methods: Eight mandibular models were fabricated two implants placed each side premolar first molar positions. Excess applied either or restorations...

The protective effects of a subunit vaccine, recombinant protein Edwardsiella tarda glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase (Rec) combined with peptidoglycan (PGN) and polyinosinic:polycytidylic acid (polyIC), against edwardsiellosis in Japanese flounder Paralichthys olivaceus were investigated to evaluate an adjuvant property pathogen-associated molecular patterns. ?By injection the mixture p...

New and radically reformative thinking about the enactive and embodied basis of cognition holds out the promise of moving forward age-old debates about whether we learn and how we learn. The radical enactive, embodied view of cognition (REC) poses a direct, and unmitigated, challenge to the trademark assumptions of traditional cognitivist theories of mind— those that characterize cognition as a...
