Bovine Leukemia ProVirus: Evidence of Presence of Part of Gag Gene in Seminal Plasma of Naturally Infected Bulls It is of critical importance to understand the modalities of BLV presence in semen, especially with regard to artificial insemination (AI). Presence of bovine leukemia provirus was demonstrated in fresh and frozen semen samples by researchers. In this study paired blood and semen sam...

To prevent distribution of recessive alleles in dairy herds all bulls used for AI (Artificial Insemination) haveto be tested. In this study 26 blood and 4 semen samples were supplied from Iranian Holstein bulls used forAI. Genomic DNA was extracted from 100 μl of blood and 200 μl of semen. Samples were tested by Polymerase Chain Reaction-Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (PCR...

We propose to develop advanced parallel geometric and numerical algorithms and software for simulating complex flows with dynamic interfaces. The development of scalable, parallel highaccuracy algorithms for simulating such flows poses enormous challenges, particularly on systems with thousands of processors. We will use the resulting tools to simulate blood flow in artificial heart devices. Th...

through the last three decades different seismological and engineering approaches for the generation of artificial earthquakes have been proposed. selection of an appropriate method for the generation of applicable artificial earthquake accelerograms (aeas) has been a challenging subject in the time history analysis of the structures in the case of the absence of sufficient recorded accelerogra...
