Since the small intestine contributes significantly to serum cholesterol and very low density lipoprotein levels, acute regulation of lipid synthesis was investigated in isolated rat intestinal cells incubated in Krebs-Ringer bicarbonate buffer with 5 mM glucose and [14c]acetate or 3H2O. Incorporation of [14c]acetate into cellular lipids was 6- to 8-fold greater in crypt than in villus cells. I...

In diagnostic radiology examinations there is a benefit that the patient derives from the resulting diagnosis. Given that so many examinations are performed each year, it is inevitable that there will be occasions when an examination(s) may be inadvertently performed on pregnant patients or occasionally it may become clinically necessary to perform an examination(s) on a pregnant patient. In al...

We present spatial distributions for pore path length and coordination number, pore throat size and nodal pore volume obtained for a 1:53 mm3 volume of 12.1% porosity Fontainebleau sandstone. The sandstone was imaged using Synchrotron X-Ray computed microtomography at 6 micron resolution. The spatial distributions were computed based upon three dimensional medial axis analysis of the void space...

In a recent experiment by Manoharan et al. [1], a small number N of spherical particles (diameter of about one micron) located at the surface of an oil droplet self-assemble due to the evaporation of the droplet. Such process leads to final packings of spheres which are unique and, for N ≤ 11, equivalent to the minimal second moment clusters as studied by Sloane et al. [2]. Because such simple ...
