Four double-monoclonal time-resolved immunofluorometric assays (TrIFMAs) have been developed for the specific determination of pregnancy-associated plasma protein A/proeosinophil major basic protein (PAPP-A/ proMBP) complex in first-trimester maternal serum samples. The assays have a functional sensitivity of < 4 mIU/L and a working range from 4 to 1000 mIU/L. These 4 assays, together with a po...

The atomic structure of the InP~001! reconstructions has been identified by scanning tunneling microscopy and infrared spectroscopy of adsorbed hydrogen. The four phases, in order of decreasing phosphorous coverage, are c(232)/p(232), uP52.0 ML; (231), uP51.0 ML; s(234), uP50.25 ML, and d(234), uP 50.125 ML. The (232) consists of phosphorous dimers adsorbed onto a layer of P atoms. Removal of t...

From a phenomenological view, the motivation for supersymmetry(SUSY) is that it provides us with an elegant method of dealing with the hierarchy problem. Supersymmetry solves the hierarchy problem because |λf | = λs, where λf and λs are higgs’ coupling to the Standard Model(SM) fermions and their scalar superpartners(SP) respectively. Due to this relationship between the two coupling constants ...

Many applications compute aggregate functions (such as COUNT, SUM) over an attribute (or set of attributes) to nd aggregate values above some speci ed threshold. We call such queries iceberg queries because the number of above-threshold results is often very small (the tip of an iceberg), relative to the large amount of input data (the iceberg). Such iceberg queries are common in many applicati...

regional variations. That’s why; the allergen profiles of the regions must be determined and the dermal Prick tests must be prepared accordingly. Mostly grass and cereal mixtures and mites are responsible from the allergic rhinitis cases due to our observations in our clinic. The other important allergens that are linked to the flora and climate of the region are olive and the cockroaches. High...
