Meatballs are processed meat products that susceptible to adulteration. Indonesia enforces a halal product guarantee regulation so all in circulation free from non-halal ingredients. This study aimed detect with the PCR method contamination by pork and chicken of commercial beef meatballs. The samples meatballs were obtained 36 meatball shops Bojonegoro Regency, East Java, Boyolali Central Java...

Abstract Eiseniella neapolitana is a semi-aquatic, diploid earthworm that for many years was related to the cosmopolitan species tetraedra and even considered subspecies of it. Norealidys andaluciana described in Spain usually synonymized with E. . We collected 69 specimens from Italy, Spain, Cyprus studied five molecular markers (COI, 16S, 28S, 12S, ND1) their morphology solve this taxonomic p...

The mitochondrial genomes of two vector psyllids the ‘Candidatus Phytoplasma mali’, Cacopsylla picta and C. melanoneura, were sequenced using high-throughput sequencing on Illumina platform. main objective study was to describe their mitogenome characterize genetic variability potential changes in context observed global warming. four complete sequences for picta, 14,801 bp 14,802 length, one p...

Eurosta solidaginis Fitch (Diptera: Tephritidae) induces galls on two species of goldenrod, Solidago (Compositae), in the northern regions of the United States. Recent studies have demonstrated that E. solidaginis is comprised of two host races that differ in adult emergence times, mate preference, and host preference. However, it is not known how much genetic variation, if any, exists among E....

In this paper, we describe a novel approach to intrinsic plagiarism detection. Each suspicious document is divided into a series of consecutive, potentially overlapping ‘windows’ of equal size. These are represented by vectors containing the relative frequencies of a predetermined set of high-frequency character trigrams. Subsequently, a distance matrix is set up in which each of the document’s...

Large numbers of genes are responsible for Leigh syndrome (LS), making genetic confirmation of LS difficult. We screened our patients with LS using a limited set of 21 primers encompassing the frequently reported gene for the respiratory chain complexes I (ND1-ND6, and ND4L), IV(SURF1), and V(ATP6) and the pyruvate dehydrogenase E1α-subunit. Of 18 LS patients, we identified mutations in 11 pati...

Multiplex diabetic families may be caused by mutations in genes of hepatocyte nuclear factors (matur i ty-onset diabetes of the young [MODY]1, -3, and -5), glucokinase (MODY2), insulin promoter factor-1 (MODY4), NeuroD1 (MODY6), mitochondrion ND1 and tRNA, and some other unknown genetic mutations. Recent studies showed that mutations of MODY are not common causes of diabetes in Chinese diabetic...

Let V = V (kt + r, q) be a vector space of dimension kt + r over the finite field with q elements. Let σq(kt + r, t) denote the minimum size of a subspace partition P of V in which t is the largest dimension of a subspace. We denote by ndi the number of subspaces of dimension di that occur in P and we say [d nd1 1 , . . . , d ndm m ] is the type of P. In this paper, we show that a partition of ...

We report on polarized Raman scattering of single crystals of Nd1−x SrxMnO3 (x = 0.3, 0.5). Raman spectra of Nd0.7Sr0.3MnO3 show a significant change through the metal–insulator transition. In the ferromagnetic metallic phase phonon modes grow in intensity and number while the electronic continuum becomes more pronounced. We suggest that these effects are due to the strong competition between t...

The following problem is studied: Given a set S of n points in the plane, does it contain a subset of four points that form the vertices of a square or rectangle. Both the axis-parallel case and the arbitrarily oriented case are studied. We also investigate extensions to the d-dimensional case. Algorithms are obtained that run in O( n1+1/ d log n) time for axis-parallel squares and O( n21/ d ) ...
