Background and Objective: Formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissues are a valuable source of DNA for molecular studies. We designed and optimized an efficient procedure for DNA extraction from formalin-fixed paraffin embedded tissues. Materials and Methods: Seventy three blocks of cervical paraffin-embedded tissues were investigated. DNA was extracted using 45 minutes boiling in alkaline sol...

Language is primarily constituted by action and interaction based on sensorimotor information. This paper demonstrates the nature of subjectivity and intersubjectivity through the neural mechanism and typological evidence of sentence-final particles from East Asian languages and extends to the discussion of the relationship between them. I propose that intersubjecivity is a kind of embedded or ...

BACKGROUND Disruption of epithelial barrier integrity is important in the initiation and cause of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Glycoalkaloids, solanine (S), and chaconine (C) are naturally present in potatoes, can permeabilize cholesterol-containing membranes, and lead to disruption of epithelial barrier integrity. Frying potatoes concentrates glycoalkaloids. Interestingly, the prevalence ...

we call $h$ an $ss$-embedded subgroup of $g$ if there exists a‎ ‎normal subgroup $t$ of $g$ such that $ht$ is subnormal in $g$ and‎ ‎$hcap tleq h_{sg}$‎, ‎where $h_{sg}$ is the maximal $s$-permutable‎ ‎subgroup of $g$ contained in $h$‎. ‎in this paper‎, ‎we investigate the‎ ‎influence of some $ss$-embedded subgroups on the structure of a‎ ‎finite group $g$‎. ‎some new results were obtained.

Impediments to animal movement are ubiquitous and vary widely in both scale and permeability. It is essential to understand how impediments alter ecological dynamics via their influence on animal behavioural strategies governing space use and, for anthropogenic features such as roads and fences, how to mitigate these effects to effectively manage species and landscapes. Here, we focused primari...

introduction: coronal leakage seems to play an important role in the failure of endodontic treatment. a double seal over root canal filling has been suggested as a means of improving the coronal seal. several restorative materials have been used in an attempt to produce a coronal barrier. the purpose of this study was to assess gray-coloured mineral trioxide aggregate (gmta), white-coloured min...

in this study, liquid-liquid extraction process in a kuhni extraction column was modeled and simulated. a non-equilibrium dynamic model was developed for modeling liquid-liquid extraction processes based on a rate-based model. the model equations are inclusive of partial and ordinary differential equations which were discretized in column height direction. the population balance model was used ...

The present paper is devoted to the application of the space transformation techniques for solving linear programming problems. By using a surjective mapping the original constrained optimization problem is transformed to a problem in a new space with only equality constraints. For the numerical solution of the latter problem the stable version of the gradient-projection and Newton's methods ar...

A comprehensive study of Schottky barrier MOSFET (SBMOSFET) scaling issue is performed to determine the role of wafer orientation and structural parameters on the performance of this device within Non-equilibrium Green's Function formalism. Quantum confinement increases the effective Schottky barrier height (SBH). (100) orientation provides lower effective Schottky barrier height in compa...
