The antiglioma activity of elliptinium (HME) was investigated in a human glioma clonogenic cell assay. Early passage cells of three human glioma cell lines (SF126, SF375, and SF407) were exposed to HME at the clinically achievable dose of 3 microM for 3 h. At this HME concentration, clonogenic cell survival was reduced by more than 3 logs in SF126 and SF375, and by 0.8 logs in SF407. A study of...

the harmful effects of many chemical food preservatives are well established, so this has triggered interest in natural methods of preservation. monolaurin, a monoester of lauric acid, founds naturally in some foods and has various antiviral and antibacterial activities. evaluation of the effects of monolaurin separately and in combination with lactic acid bacteria (lab) starter culture on grow...

primary sedimentary and secondary structural and diagenetic processes are responsible for heterogeneity in carbonate reservoirs and recognition of these factors is very essential subject in modeling these reservoirs. image logs are very useful for identification of structures and small scale sedimentary features. in this research, using image analysis of formation microimager log (fmi) in a dri...

Abstract The present work deals with an interpretation of well log data (gamma ray (GR), resistivity, density, and neutron) from four wells, namely P-1, P-2, P-3 P-4 in the study area Rio Del Rey basin. logs analysis indicates five potential sandstone reservoirs at two six P-4. neutron–density-GR highlight gas reservoir characterized by high resistivity crossover between neutron density. cross-...

[Abstracts] Workflow logs that record the execution of business processes offer very valuable data resource for real-time enterprise performance measurement. In this paper, we proposed a novel scheme that uses the technology of data warehouse and OLAP to explore workflow logs and create complex analysis reports for enterprise performance measurement. Three key points of this scheme were studied...

Several North American walnut species (Juglans spp.) are threatened by thousand cankers disease which is caused by the walnut twig beetle (Pityophthorus juglandis Blackman) and its associated fungal plant pathogen, Geosmithia morbida M. Kolarík, E. Freeland, C. Utley and N. Tisserat sp. nov. Spread of this disease may occur via movement of infested black walnut (Juglans nigra L.) wood. This stu...

Let K be a totally real number field and consider Fermat-type equation A p + B b q = C c r $Aa^p+Bb^q=Cc^r$ over K. We call the triple of exponents ( , ) $(p,q,r)$ signature equation. prove various results concerning solutions to Fermat with 2 $(p,p,2)$ 3 $(p,p,3)$ using method involving modularity, level lowering image inertia comparison. These generalize extend recent work I?ik, Kara Özman. F...

Thousand cankers disease, caused by the walnut twig beetle (Pityophthorus juglandis Blackman) and an associated fungal pathogen (Geosmithia morbida M. Kolarík, E. Freeland, C. Utley, and N. Tisserat), threatens the health and commercial use of eastern black walnut (Juglans nigra L.), one of the most economically valuable tree species in the United States. Effective phytosanitary measures are ne...

Sphaeropsis sapinea (Fr.:Fr.) Dyko and Sutton, is among the most common and widely distributed pathogens of conifers worldwide. S. sapinea is disseminated over short distances by rain splash and moist wind, but significant knowledge gaps regarding long-range dispersal remain. Our objective was to determine whether or not the pine engraver beetle, Ips pini Say, is a vector of the pathogen onto A...
