This study investigated the impact of dual-fuel operation using ethanol-blended diesel fuel enriched with hydroxy gas on CRDI engine performance, combustion, and emission characteristics. Neat was used to run engine, along a 20% volume fraction an ethanol-diesel mixture that had been enhanced three distinct streams gas, namely 1, 1.5, 2 LPM. Hydroxy generated by electrolysis technique plate-typ...

UNLABELLED It has been reported that lentogenic Newcastle disease virus (NDV) isolates have the potential to become velogenic after their transmission and circulation in chickens, but the underlying mechanism is unclear. In this study, a highly velogenic NDV variant, JS10-A10, was generated from the duck-origin lentogenic isolate JS10 through 10 consecutive passages in chicken air sacs. The vel...

The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of estrogen and progesterone treatment on 5-hydroxytryptamine (serotonin)-1A (5-HT(1A)) receptor-mediated disruption of prepulse inhibition (PPI) of acoustic startle. The age-at-onset of schizophrenia is later in women than men, and it has been suggested that women may be protected from schizophrenia by the sex steroid hormone estrogen....

Background: The embryonic development is a complex process and the behavioural traits of an organism are influenced by the experiential factors during early development. . The fact that sensory systems of birds and mammals do not become functional at the same time in development raises an interesting question as to how sensory systems and their respective stimulative histories might influence o...

Rat perinatal (E20-P0) CA1 pyramidal neurons were either synaptically active or silent. We show here that, during this developmental period, active but not silent cells form recurrent axon-collaterals that invade the radiatum and the lacunosum moleculare strata. These recurrents were never observed in adult rats. We propose that these transient recurrent axons may participate in the activity-de...

This article describes one of the possibilities of simulating the flight parameters of the aircraft L 410 UVP E20 with the help of Matlab/Simulink. The article focuses on the definition of basic algorithms and the possibility of applying these algorithms using software such as Matlab/Simulink. Keywords—simulation, aircraft, L410, model

T his paper has investigated the effects of an alternative hybrid hydrogen-gasohol E20 fueled spark ignition engine on performance and exhaust pollutants. A hydrogen mixture with gasohol was performed in external formation by installing a fuel injection kit into intake manifold area which is responsible for injecting inside engine’s cylinder. The energy fraction gradually increased from 3% to 9...

Ammonia metabolism is a primary component of acid-base homeostasis but is incompletely developed at time of birth. Rh B glycoprotein (Rhbg) and Rh C glycoprotein (Rhcg) are recently recognized ammonia transporter family members expressed in the mammalian kidney. This study's purpose was to establish the expression and localization of Rhbg and Rhcg during kidney development. We examined kidneys ...

The inflammasome is a multiprotein complex whose formation is triggered when a NOD-like receptor binds a pathogen ligand, resulting in activated caspase-1, which converts certain interleukins (IL-1β, IL-18, and IL-33) to their active forms. There is currently no information on regulation of this system around the time of birth. We employed transcript profiling of fetal rat intestinal and lung R...

Enerji ihtiyacını karşılamak için ülkemizde olduğu gibi dünya genelinde de hâlihazırda petrol türevli yakıtlar kullanılmaktadır. Artan sanayileşme ve nüfus yoğunluğu buna bağlı olarak taşıt miktarı ile birlikte petrole olan eğilim daha da artmakta, bu durum kaynakların tükenmesine yol açmaktadır. Petrol rezervlerinin gün geçtikçe azalması petrolün çevreye olumsuz etkileri göz önüne alındığında ...
