Two full-length glutamate-gated chloride channel (GluCl) cDNAs, encoding GluClalpha3 and GluClbeta subunits, were cloned from ivermectin-susceptible (IVS) and -resistant (IVR) Cooperia oncophora adult worms. The IVS and IVR GluClalpha3 subunits differ at three amino acid positions, while the IVS and IVR GluClbeta subunits differ at two amino acid positions. The aim of this study was to determin...

One strategy for enhancing the establishment of probiotic bacteria in the human intestinal tract is via the parallel administration of a prebiotic, which is referred to as a synbiotic. Here we present a novel method that allows a rational selection of putative probiotic strains to be used in synbiotic applications: in vivo selection (IVS). This method consists of isolating candidate probiotic s...

introduction: to study the prevalence of most common β-thalassemia mutations in lorestan province and use the results for epidemiologic study and prenatal diagnosis of β_thalassemia major. material and methods: 130 chromosomes from 65 unrelated homozygous β_thalassemia patients from lorestan province of iran (west-central) were investigated for β globin gene mutations by arms pcr. results: most...

The International VLBI Service for Geodesy and Astrometry (IVS) is a globally operating service that coordinates and performs Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) activities through its constituent components. The VLBI activities are associated with the creation, provision, dissemination, and archiving of relevant VLBI data and products. The data and products are stored in dedicated IVS com...

The WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) is a part of IEEE 802.11 standard designed for protecting over the air communication. While almost all of the WLAN (Wireless LAN) cards and the APs (Access Points) support WEP, a serious key recovery attack (aka FMS attack) was identified by Fluhrer et al. The attack was then extended and implemented as WEP cracking tools. The key recovery attacks can basicall...

Peanut (PN) and tree nut (TN) allergies are among the leading causes of fatal food-induced anaphylaxis and are increasing in prevalence, especially in children. Their cosensitization and concurrent clinical allergy have been understudied. This retrospective study investigated the correlation between PN and TN allergy, both in terms of in vitro sensitization (IVS) and clinical allergic manifesta...

Bowing of the interventricular septum (IVS) is a sign of severe pulmonary embolism(PE); however, it is affected by high interobserver variability. The aim of the study was to evaluate the application of volumetric reconstructions of the right ventricle for assessment of IVS position regarding its accuracy in identifying right ventricular dysfunction, as well as interobserver agreement in evalua...

even in that cases, the basal portion of the muscular IVS is spared. Our patient had a well defined aneurysm of the basal IVS which was contractile in nature. The mechanism behind the development of aneurysm in our case might be the eccentric jet of mitral stenosis constantly striking the basal IVS region. Aneurysmal deformity of the basal IVS secondary to impinging turbulent transprosthetic ec...
