O mercado das balas de goma tende a ter um enorme crescimento no Brasil, visto que é produto inovador com grande potencial aceitação pelos consumidores. Sendo assim, insumos farmacêuticos além ser doce, auxilia fortalecimento do organismo, podendo aumentar imunidade, precavendo presença doenças, combater o envelhecimento, entre outros. A presente pesquisa teve por objetivo desenvolver e avaliar...

PurposePrimary graft dysfunction (PGD) is a clinical syndrome of severe lung ischemia-reperfusion injury. We previously showed that NK cell NKG2D receptor recognition stress ligands was required in mouse model PGD and the ligand MICB increased human bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) before PGD. Here, we tested hypothesis single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) causing decreased activity are protectiv...

This paper discusses the principal domains of auto-and cross trispectra. It is shown that the cumulant and moment based trispectra are identical except on certain planes in trifrequency space. If these planes are avoided, their principal domains can be derived by considering the regions of symmetry of the fourth order spectral moment. The fourth order averaged periodogram will then serve as an ...

We used a previously reported agarose-gel electrophoresis system to study the lipoprotein patterns in patients with type 3 hyperlipoproteinemia. All samples from 20 subjects tested revealed the presence of two bands with beta-lipoprotein mobility, irrespective of quantitative changes in plasma lipids induced by diet or by the administration of drugs. If these observations are confirmed, the met...

An improved assay for N-acetyl-/3-o-glucosaminidase activity in urine is described that involves (a) gel filtration to separate the enzyme from inhibitors in urine, (b) enzymic hydrolysis of p-nitrophenyl-N-acetyl-3-D-glucosaminide at pH 4.4, and (C) spectrophotometry of the liberated p-nitrophenylate. Measurements of activity of the enzyme in 58 urine specimens correlated closely (r = 0.9998) ...

Experiments on deep-inelastic scattering (DIS) of charged leptons and neutrino remains an important source of information about the nucleon as well as about the nuclear structure. DIS experiments with neutrino beams 1,2 has reached now an accuracy comparable to that of experiments with charged leptons. Note in this respect that because of statistics reasons neutrino data are collected for heavy...

The research work comprising genetic studies for oil, fatty acid profile, seed cotton yield and lint percentage in eight parental lines (SLH-284, CIM-446, CIM-473, CIM-496, CIM-499, CIM-506, CIM-554, CIM-707) and their F3 populations was carried out during 2011 and 2012 at The University of Agriculture, Peshawar and Nuclear Institute for Food and Agriculture, Peshawar Pakistan. The genetic pote...

In this paper we study conformally geodesic mappings between pseudo-Riemannian manifolds (M, g) and (M̄, ḡ), i.e. mappings f : M → M̄ satisfying f = f1 ◦ f2 ◦ f3, where f1, f3 are conformal mappings and f2 is a geodesic mapping. Suppose that the initial condition f∗ḡ = kg is satisfied at a point x0 ∈ M and that at this point the conformal Weyl tensor does not vanish. We prove that then f is neces...

This paper reports an attempt to map the time variations of selected articulatory parameters (from X-ray profiles) directly on the F1, F2 and F3 formant tracks using multiple regression analysis (MRA). The results indicate that MRA can indeed be useful for predicting formant frequencies. Since the results reported here are limited to preliminary observations of F1 only, further studies includin...
