In this paper we present a pedestrian review of the theoretical fact that all relativistic wave equations possess solutions of arbitrary velocities 0 ≤ v < ∞. We discuss some experimental evidences of v ≥ c transmission of electromagnetic field configurations and the importance of these facts with regard to the principle of relativity. Maxwell’s equations are a set of first order partial differ...

the most current pursuit algorithms for moving targets which are presented so far in the literatureare pure pursuit and pure rendezvous navigations. recently, one of the present authors has introduced ageometric model for the pure pursuit navigation algorithm. here, in this paper, we study a new algorithm forthe pursuit navigation problem which is a combination of both of the above algorithms. ...

Oral supplementation with collagen hydrolysate (CH) has been shown to improve the condition of the skin in humans and experimental animals. Several hydroxyproline-containing oligo-peptides were previously detected in human peripheral blood after the ingestion of CH, and the two dipeptides, prolyl-hydroxyproline (PO) and hydroxyprolyl-glycine (OG), have been proposed to have beneficial effects o...

An efficient noninvasive method for in vivo imaging of tumor oxygenation by using a low-field magnetic resonance scanner and a paramagnetic contrast agent is described. The methodology is based on Overhauser enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (OMRI), a functional imaging technique. OMRI experiments were performed on tumor-bearing mice (squamous cell carcinoma) by i.v. administration of the con...

Thermoregulatory responses are partially controlled by the preoptic area and anterior hypothalamus (PO/AH), which contains a mixed population of temperature-sensitive and insensitive neurons. Immunohistochemical procedures identified the extent of various ionic channels in rat PO/AH neurons. These included pacemaker current channels [i.e., hyperpolarization-activated cyclic nucleotide-gated cha...

in this paper‎, ‎we introduce the notion of $(m,n)$-‎algebr‎aically compact modules as an analogue of algebraically‎ ‎compact modules and then we show that $(m,n)$-algebraically‎ ‎compactness‎ ‎and $(m,n)$-pure injectivity for modules coincide‎. ‎moreover‎, ‎further characterizations of a‎ ‎$(m,n)$-pure injective module over a commutative ring are given‎.

Meals high in SFA, particularly palmitate, are associated with postprandial inflammation and insulin resistance. Milk fat globule membrane (MFGM) has anti-inflammatory properties that may attenuate the negative effects of SFA-rich meals. Our objective was to examine the postprandial metabolic and inflammatory response to a high-fat meal composed of palm oil (PO) compared with PO with an added d...

BACKGROUND Esomeprazole is an S-enantiomer of omeprazole that has favorable pharmacokinetics and efficacious acid suppressant properties in humans. However, the pharmacokinetics and effects on intragastric pH of esomeprazole in dogs have not been reported. OBJECTIVE To determine the pharmacokinetics of esomeprazole administered via various routes (PK study) and to investigate the effect of es...

Oral busulfan is an alkylating agent that provides good antileukemic activity and excellent CNS penetration. It was first introduced over 30 years ago by George Santos as an alternative to total body irradiation (TBI) for preallogeneic transplantation conditioning [1]. Since its introduction, it has had a mixed reputation. Oral busulfan (PO BU) proved an attractive alternative to TBI based on g...
