Evaluation of the double-quantum filter for sodium was performed on several sample series of bovine serum albumin in water. Both single-quantum (1Q) and double-quantum (2Q) measurements were obtained. The quality of the 2Q filter was found to be quite sensitive to pulse width setting. Ordinary 1Q measurements of sodium in albumin-containing solutions show 100% visibility. At high ionic strength...

In this study, we construct the difference sequence spaces lp (P?2q) = (lp)P?2q, 1 ? p ?, where P (?rs) is an infinite matrix of Padovan numbers %s defined by ?rs {?s/?r+5-2 0 s r, > r. and ?2q a q-difference operator second order. We obtain some inclusion relations, topological properties, Schauder basis ?-, ?- ?-duals newly space. characterize certain classes from space to any one l1, c0, ...

We prove the nonexistence of [gq(4, d), 4, d]q codes for (a) d = q /2−q− 2q+1 for q = 2, h ≥ 3, (b) d = 2q−3q−2q+1 for q ≥ 7, and (c) d = 2q−rq−q+1 for 3 ≤ r ≤ q − q/p, q = p with p prime, where gq(k, d) = ∑k−1 i=0 ⌈ d/q ⌉

A 35-year-old, gravida 3, para 2, woman was referred to the hospital at 18 weeks of gestation for amniocentesis because of advanced maternal age and relatives with balanced and unbalanced chromosomal translocations. Her husband and her elder daughter had a balanced translocation of t(2;15)(q37.3;q24.3). Her younger daughter suffered from mental retardation and had an unbalanced translocation of...

Solvent ordering at an interface can be studied by multiple-quantum NMR. Quantitative studies of (2)H2O ordering require clean double-quantum (2Q) filtration and an analysis of 2Q buildup curves that accounts for relaxation and, if randomly oriented samples are used, the distribution of residual couplings. A pulse sequence with absorption mode detection is extended for separating coherences by ...

BACKGROUND Apparently balanced chromosomal rearrangements can be associated with an abnormal phenotype, including intellectual disability and autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Genome-wide microarrays reveal cryptic genomic imbalances, related or not to the breakpoints, in 25% to 50% of patients with an abnormal phenotype carrying a microscopically balanced chromosomal rearrangement. Here we perfo...

BACKGROUND HDR syndrome (hypoparathyroidism, sensorineural deafness and renal disease) is an autosomal dominant condition, defined by the triad hypoparathyroidism, renal dysplasia and hearing loss. Hirschsprung (HSCR) disease is a variable congenital absence of ganglion cells of the enteric nervous system resulting in degrees of functional bowel obstruction. Rarer chromosomal anomalies are repo...

In this paper we analyze the behavior of solutions of reaction-diffusion equations with nonlinear boundary conditions of the type (1.1). We show that if f(x, u) = −β0u and g(x, u) = uq in a neighborhood of a point x0 ∈ ΓN , then i) for the case q > 1, if p + 1 < 2q or if p + 1 = 2q and β0 < q, then blow up in finite time at x0 occurs. ii) for the case p > 1 if p + 1 > 2q or if p + 1 = 2q and β0...

‎Suppose G is a group of order p^2q^2 where p>q are prime numbers and suppose P and Q are Sylow p-subgroups and Sylow q-subgroups of G, ‎respectively‎. ‎In this paper‎, ‎we show that up to isomorphism‎, ‎there are four groups of order p^2q^2 when Q and P are cyclic‎, ‎three groups when Q is a cyclic and P is an elementary ablian group‎, ‎p^2+3p/2+7 groups when Q is an elementary ablian group an...

Antibodies raised in SWR/J mice (H-2q, Igc) to the random copolymer poly(LGlu60, LPhe40) (GPhe) were purified by immunoadsorbent chromatography and used to immunize a New Zealand red rabbit. The rabbit anti-idiotypic antiserum thus produced strongly inhibited the binding of 125I-GPhe by anti-GPhe antisera produced only in mice of H-2q haplotype, and had no effect on the binding of GPhe by anti-...
