A NaCi-tolerant cell lne which was selected from ovular callus of 'Shamouti' orange (Citrus sinensis L. Osbeck) proved to be a true cell lne variant. This conclusion is based on the following observations. (a) Cells which have been removed from the selection pressure for at least four passages retain the same NaCI tolerance as do cells which are kept constantly on 0.2 molar NaCI. (b) Na+ and Cl...

 Abstract Background: Esophageal replacement is indicated in certain circumstances including long gap esophageal atresia, severe strictures due to gastro-esophageal reflux (GER) and caustic burns. We analyzed our results of 18 patients who underwent esophageal replacement in our university hospital. Methods: We reviewed esophageal replacements carried out in our department between June 1996 and...

Purpose The authors have carried out a research project on artisanal salt activity in the Gulf of Cadiz, providing new vision theories intangible cultural heritage. main objective has been to characterise terms its and sustainable values, perspective that had not addressed until now. Moreover, replacement this by more industrialised one contributed problems preservation heritage transformation ...

in this paper an intelligent method through general regression neural networks (grnn) is presented to estimate the depth of salt domes from gravity data. neural networks are as a good tool for automatic interpretation of geophysical data especially for depth estimation of gravity anomalies. the gravity signal is a nonlinear function of depth and density and the geometrical parameters of the bur...

background and aims. the present study evaluated the most common reasons for replacing amalgam restorations in a university clinic. materials and methods. a total of 217 restorations which needed to be replaced were clinically and radiographically evaluated in a period of 4 months. the frequencies of reasons for replacing amalgam restorations were calculated: the assessed items included recurre...

age replacement policy is concerned with finding an optional time tominimize the cost, at which time the unit is replaced even if itdoes not fail. so far, age replacement policy involving random agehas been proposed. this paper will assume the age of the unit is anuncertain variable, and find the optimal time to replace the unit.

predicting the maintenance and management costs and replacement age of tractors in agricultural mechanized units, is important from several points. so, doing a timely agricultural operations, more accurate measure of the amount of income  including the cost of these items , determining the useful life of old tractors , replacement age, cost of the process changes and the possibility of examinin...

background & aim: repair or replacement of restorations is one of the main necessities for health promotion. however, it has its own physical, psychological and economical side effects. the aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence of factors causing restoration replacement or repair. methods & materials: a non probable sampling was used for this cross – sectional observational descri...

a greenhouse experiment was conducted to evaluate the competitive effects of different densities of wild mustardas against rapeseed. the experiment was performed in a randomized complete block design with four replicationsusing replacement series in which wild mustard and rapeseed were respectively planted in different ratios of 4:0, 3:1,2:2, 1:3 and 0:4 plants per pot. results indicated that t...

background total correction of tetralogy of fallot (tof) anomaly in early childhood has been practiced in many centers with good results, but in some of patients after few years sever pulmonary valve insufficiency occurred. materials and methods at a cross- sectional study from january 2015 to january 2016, 10 patients who had history of primary repair of tof with free pulmonary insufficiency (...
