Background/Aims: Adsorption and kinetic parameters, latent period, burst size and burst time, are characteristics of phage/host systems and can be affected by several environmental factors. As only few studies have focused on temperate dairy phages, we characterized these parameters on temperate Lactobacillus paracasei phages Φ i Lp 84 and Φ i Lp 1308, infective for probiotic strains. Methods: ...

Introduction Middle nasal turbinate (concha) is one of three or four lateralto-medial extroflexions of the lateral nasal wall: they are the inferior turbinate, whose bony skeleton is an independent bone, and middle, superior and sometime supreme turbinates, whose bony structures are part of the ethmoid bone. Embryogenesis of the last three turbinates is a process induced by active intramural pn...

The high redshift (z = 0.997) blazar B2 1308+326 was observed contemporaneously at x-ray, optical and radio wavelengths in June 1996. The x-ray observations were performed with ASCA. The ASCA results were found to be consistent with reanalysed data from two earlier ROSAT observations. The combined ASCA and ROSAT data reveal an xray spectrum that is best fit by a broken power law with absorber m...

UCM1612+1308 is a new emission-line galaxy identified in the context of the Universidad Complutense de Madrid (UCM) survey. This object was classified as Blue Compact Galaxy (BCG) from photometric data. A detailed spectroscopic study fromnewoptical observations is presented now.The physical conditions and chemical composition are derived. The ionic abundances yield to a metallicity of 0.23 ± 0....
