background: a number of methods for detecting diversity in entamoeba have been described over the years. in the present study the genetic polymorphism of noncoding locus a-l was ana­lyzed using pcr and sequencing in order to clarify the genotypic differences among e. dispar isolates. methods: a total of 28 e. dispar from patients with gastrointestinal symptoms were determined and the genomic dn...

background toxoplasma gondii is an obligate, intracellular parasite, which is widely spread in the world. the parasite is able to infect all warm-blooded hosts including human.the infection occures via consumption of food or water containing oocytes, eatingundercooked meats containing tissue cysts, and placenta. undercooked meat consumption is one of the most important ways of toxoplasma transm...

heat stress effects on physical and mental health of workers and decreases human function. asphalt workers are both exposed to the heat of their working process and to the sun heat. this study aimed at evaluating thermal stress and its following function fall and the effect of asphalt work on the degree of heat stress and asphalt workers’ physiological parameters. the present study was done at ...

Convergent infinite products, indexed by all natural numbers, in which each factor is a rational function of the index, can always be evaluated in terms of finite products of gamma functions. This goes back to Euler. A purpose of this note is to demonstrate the usefulness of this fact through a number of diverse applications involving multiplicative partitions, entries in Ramanujan’s notebooks,...

As the sequencing of the total DNA of many organisms continues, attention is turning next to the interpretation of the function of all of the genes and gene products, with the aim of learning the full meaning of the entire genetic blueprint of a sequenced organism in concrete terms. To set the stage for accomplishing this, systems need to be constructed for the expression of the functions of ge...
