Genome-scale metabolic reconstructions are typically validated by comparing in silico growth predictions across different mutants utilizing different carbon sources with in vivo growth data. This comparison results in two types of model-prediction inconsistencies; either the model predicts growth when no growth is observed in the experiment (GNG inconsistencies) or the model predicts no growth ...

background:   objective: to understand the changes of mirnas in endometriosis.   materials and methods: with real-time rt-pcr, we investigated the mir-143 and mir-145 expression in eutopic (eu, n=2) and ectopic endometrium (ec, n=11) (from women with endometriosis) (as well as eu+ec, n=11), along with the normal endometrium (en, n=22) (from women without endometriosis, but with leiomyoma). resu...

GRIDs technology has developed from first generation, supplier-specific and configurationspecific systems through second generation systems providing metacomputing facilities over various underlying platforms. The 2.5 generation added facilities for fast data transfer (GRIDFTP) and directories (LDAP). The third generation embraced from the W3C (World Wide Web Consortium) community the idea of s...

Searching for alternative methods traditional irrigation is World trend at days due to a reduction in water and increased of drought climate changes therefore farmers need use modern scheduling minimizing losses while also increasing yield. To meet the future demands food there utilize reduce evaporation, transpiration deep percolation water. Any countries recycled (drain sewage) desalination f...

Studies on how the body senses the need to correct extracellular and intracellular volumes and ionic concentration changes is relatively scanty. The present studies were designed to determine the effect of oral distilled water (DW) and saline loads, gargling with DW and DW preload on thirst perception (TP) and drinking in euhydrate and dehydrated subjects. The subjects were healthy male volunte...

PURPOSE To evaluate the potentials of T2 weighted (T2W)MRI and diffusion weighted (DW) MRI for prostate cancer(PCa) detection, local staging and treatment planning in high-risk group. MATERIAL AND METHODS Endorectal MRI was performed in 17 Romanian men (median age: 66 years; range: 58 75 years), prostate specific antigen (PSA) serum levels (median: 20 ng mL; range: 8.6 100 ng mL) with positiv...

Bu araştırmanın amacı, otizm spektrum bozukluğu (OSB) tanılı ve normal gelişim gösteren (NGG) 9-12 yaş grubu çocuğa sahip annelerin çocuk yetiştirme tutumlarının incelenmesidir. Çalışma grubunu, 90 NGG 70 OSB’li çocuğu olan 160 anne oluşturmuştur. Verilerin toplanmasında Anne-Baba Tutum Ölçeği (ABTÖ)-C Formu kullanılmıştır. analizinde Kruskal Wallis-H Mann Whitney-U testlerinden yararlanılmıştı...

In archived samples from the German environmental specimen bank (ESB) organotin compounds including tributyltin (TBT) and triphenyltin (TPT) as well as their potential degradation products were quantified. Muscles of bream (Abramis brama) sampled in the period 1993-2003 from the rivers Rhine, Elbe, Saale, Mulde, Saar, and from Lake Belau (period 1988-2003) were analyzed by gas chromatography/at...

Nutritional value of freshwater mesozooplankton, fatty acid (FA) and amino acid (AA) compositions were determined in the middle of each season for a one-year period from May 2009 to February 2010 in Hanna Dam Lake, Isfahan, Iran. FA and AA composition significantly (P<0.05) varied in relation to the seasonal changes of water quality, phytoplankton and zooplankton community. The content of satur...
