The role of the sensitivity of bone marrow cells to, and the pharmacokinetics of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) on the rhythm of leukocyte-increasing effect was investigated in ICR male mice housed under a standardized light-dark cycle (lights on at 0700, off at 1900). A significant circadian rhythm was demonstrated for leukocyte counts at 24 hr after G-CSF (250 microg/kg, s.c.) ...

D. DESSERTINE and 0. FAURE, Combattre la tuberculose, 1900-1940, Lyons, Presses Universitaires de Lyon, 1988, 8vo, pp. 244, illus., Fr. 110.00, (paperback). Recent French contributions to the history of tuberculosis have been impressive, often iconoclastic, and this volume is a valuable addition to the corpus. As Pierre Guillaume set out to destroy the Western myth of tuberculosis as the gentle...

Gustav Jacob Born was an experimental embryologist whose original work with amphibians [5] served as the platform for his wax-plate method [6] of embryo modeling, heteroblastic (different tissues) and xenoplastic (similar species) transplantation methods, environmental influences on sex ratio studies, and proposed function of the corpus luteum [7]. He was born 22 April 1851 in Kempen, Prussia, ...

A definitive history of geomagnetism is yet to be written, but brief accounts have appeared in various publications. The story up to 1940 has been summarized (Chapman and Bartels, pp. 898-936). Perhaps the most complete account is by David R. Barraclough (pp. 584-592). Brief accounts have also been given by Stuart Malin (in Jacobs, ed., Geomagnetism, 1: 1-50), and others (Multhauf and Good, pp....

This biographical sketch of R. Merle d’Aubigné corresponds to the historic text, The Classic: Functional Results of Hip Arthroplasty with Acrylic Prosthesis, available at DOI 10.1007/s11999-008-0572-1. Robert Merle d’Aubigné was born in 1900 in Neuilly, from a Huguenot family [9]. He had a classical education at the Lycée Pasteur [5] and at age 17 wanted to enlist in the tank corps, but with tw...

syndrome is a rare congenital syndrome involving enlarged veins and arteries, limb hypertrophy and capillary malformations. In 1900, French physicians, Klippel and Trenaunay, first described what became known as Klippel-Trenaunay syndrome after two patients presented with a triad of symptoms — port-wine stain, varicose veins, and bony and soft tissue hypertrophy involving an extremity (Klippel ...

Poleward ocean heat transport is a key process in the earth system. We detail and review northward Atlantic Water (AW) flow, Arctic Ocean transport, loss to atmosphere since 1900 relation sea ice cover. Our synthesis largely based on ice-ocean model forced by reanalysis (1900–2018) corroborated comprehensive hydrographic database (1950–), AW inflow observations (1996–), other long-term time ser...

Limbah penyamakan kulit merupakan salah satu limbah yang memerlukan pengolahan karena mengandung ion Cr6+ dapat berbahaya bagi lingkungan, terutama laboratorium sebagai tempat pendidikan. Tujuan dari kajian ini adalah untuk mengetahui efektivitas salak dalam mengadsorpsi upaya pengelolaan laboratorium. Alat digunakan mengukur kadar spektrofotometer DR 1900 jenis portable. Metode penelitian adso...

A new genus of Bruchinae, Buburra Reid & Beatson, is erected for a single new species, B. jeanae Reid & Beatson. Buburra is endemic to Australia where it is known from a single site at high altitude in Victoria. The hostplant is unknown. Buburra is placed in the tribe Pachymerini. A key is provided for identification of the 12 genera of Bruchinae in Australia, including Caryotrypes Decelle, 196...
