Immunization of mice and hamsters with a cocktail of mouse MAbs specific for rabies virus nucleocapsid protein and glycoprotein protected animals not only when challenged with a lethal dose of rabies virus after immunization, but also in postexposure situations. Hamsters treated with the MAb cocktail 3 h after virus inoculation were completely protected from lethal rabies virus infection, and 8...

Cocktail II (a further development of Cocktail) is an interactive tool for deriving programs from specifications. Instead of verifying a program after it was constructed, Cocktail II aids the goal oriented derivation of a program. First, the user provides a preand postcondition. Then, the gap between these conditions is filled by manually inserting statements, constructing the program step by s...

Objective(s): Phage therapy is a potential alternative treatment for infections caused by Acinetobacter baumannii, a significant nosocomial pathogen, which has evolved resistance to almost all conventional antimicrobial drugs in poor hygiene and conflicts areas such as Iraq. Materials and Methods: Bacteriophages were isolated to highly resistant isolates of A. baumannii to form therapeutic phag...

Abstract Sugarcane bagasse is the major by‐product of sugarcane industry, and it can serve as a substrate for biotechnological processes obtaining value‐added products. This study gave multiple adding values to using in two separate bioprocesses. was used enzymatic cocktail production from Auricularia fuscosuccinea LBM 244 source proteins phenolic compounds. A . enzyme cocktail‐assisted extract...

The new Lcica RM 2165 automatic, heavy-duty microtome has an advanced step motor that permits an exact specimen feed and reproducible sectioning results. Features include 70 mm vertical stroke length, unique step trim function, and programmable specimen retraction. Technical features include a handwheel rocking sectioning mode; the motorized specimen feed can be linked to change the handwheel t...

Twenty-five Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains were screened for the highest sugar tolerance, ethanol-tolerance, ethanol production, and inhibitor resistance, and S. cerevisiae KL5 was selected as the best strain. Inhibitor cocktail (100%) was composed of 75 mM formic acid, 75 mM acetic acid, 30 mM furfural, 30 mM hydroxymethyl furfural (HMF), and 2.7 mM vanillin. The cells of strain KL5 were tre...

PURPOSE To report the combination cocktail of strong steroid, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), and carbonic anhydrase inhibitor drops for treatment of cystoid macular edema. METHODS This is a retrospective case series of patients with cystoid macular edema managed with a topical combination of strong steroid (difluprednate), NSAID, and carbonic anhydrase inhibitor drops. The pati...

The classical isoperimetric inequality states that the surface of smallest area enclosing a given volume in R3 is a sphere. We show that the least area surface enclosing two equal volumes is a double bubble, a surface made of two pieces of round spheres separated by a flat disk, meeting along a single circle at an angle of 2π/3.

It is most important to assure 4 π−geometry in liquid scintillation counting for accurate results1. Usually this can be assured by dissolution of the sample in an appropriate cocktail. The cocktail does not only contain a solvent but also at least one scintillator and surfactants for aqueous samples because aqueous samples are completely insoluble in the pure organic solvents and scintillators....
