The aims of this study were 1) To evaluate retinal nerve fiber layer (fRNFL) thickness and ganglion cell layer plus inner plexiform layer (GCIPL) thickness at the fovea in eyes affected with traumatic optic neuropathy (TON) compared with contralateral normal eyes, 2) to further evaluate these thicknesses within 3 weeks following trauma (defined as "early TON"), and 3) to investigate the relatio...

The potential of feeding a blend of 3 strains of Bacillus subtilis (Sporulin; SPR), to control Salmonella (SAL) was evaluated in broilers challenged with a strain of Salmonella Heidelberg (SH) isolated in Brazil . A total of 288 broilers were allocated to 6 treatments of 4 replicates of 12 birds each . Groups were T1) Non-challenged (NC), T2) NC fed 250 g of SPR/ton, T3) NC fed 500 g of SPR/ton...

Inability of T7 RNA polymerase to processively transcribe higher eukaryotic chromatin is interpreted as a correlate of its reported inhibition by nucleosomes on reconstituted templates in vitro . We used chromosomally integrated reporter cassettes to examine features of T7 transcription in a lower eukaryotic system. Luciferase reporters were targeted to rDNA in transgenic Trypanosoma brucei sta...

Overexpression of udk, an Escherichia coli gene encoding a uridine/cytidine kinase, interferes with T7 bacteriophage growth. We show here that inhibition of T7 phage growth by udk overexpression can be overcome by inhibition of host RNA polymerase. Overexpression of gene 2, whose product inhibits host RNA polymerase, restores T7 phage growth on hosts overexpressing udk. In addition, rifampicin,...

Microalgal blooms can result from anthropogenic nutrient loadings in coastal ecosystems. However, differentiating sources of nutrients remains a challenge. The response of phytoplankton and benthic microalgae (BMA) to nutrient loads was compared across tropical tidal creeks with and without secondary treated sewage. Primary productivity in the water column was limited by nitrogen availability i...

Background:In the recent decade, the reverse genetics method has been broadly used for rescue of negative-stranded RNA viruses from cDNA or viral minigenomes. This technique has been applied to study different steps in virus replication and virus-host interactions. Reverse genetics could also be implemented for design of new vaccines. The T7 RNA polymerase activity as well as virus (nucleocapsi...

This study proposed the integrated design of an NH3 fuel supply system and a re-liquefaction for ocean-going NH3-fueled ship. The target ship was 14,000 TEU large container traveling from Asia to Europe. developed feed liquid at 40 °C 80 bar cope with re-circulated sealing oil. Its power consumptions SECs ranged 56.4 157.5 kW 0.0063 0.009 kWh/kg, respectively. An onboard vapor compression refri...

Sewage is a kind of ideal low-temperature heat sources. Sewage heat source pump system uses heat energy in sewage, and it is a method of utilizing sewage resources. In this article we analyze sewage’s characteristics and sewage source heat pump system; introduce its practical applications in sewage treatment plants in China, analyze its technical and economic characteristics, and discuss its ap...
