previous, intravenous immunoglobulin (ivig) has been used for treatment of patients with immunodeficiency. however, recent studies have shown that ivig is a suitable approach for treatment of inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. although the exact mechanism of ivig action is not well known, recent findings have demonstrated that ivig impacts on expression and function of fc receptors of immuno...

the kinetics and mechanism of the reaction between benzaldehyde 1, malononitrile 2 and dimedone 3 in a mixture of ethanol and water as solvents in the presence of fructose as a biodegradable catalyst has been studied by the spectroscopic method (uv-vis spectrophotometry method). the influence of various parameters (temperature, solvent and concentration) was studied on the reaction by means of ...

conclusions probable mechanism of suppression of energy generation is suppression of the rise in glucose. results listeria monocytogenes was controlled using 2 mm of osthole. treatment of l. monocytogenes by 2 mm osthole had no effect on the atp level. objectives osthole has antibacterial properties, but its mechanisms of action is still unknown. materials and methods two millimoles of osthole ...

sucrose is applied as an efficient catalyst for the three-component reaction consisting of aromatic aldehydes, malononitrile and resorcinol in a mixture of water and ethanol media as green solvents. the advantages of this method are excellent yeild, inexpensive catalyst and more environmentally friendly. mechanistic insight into the synthesis of 2-amino-4h-chromene included spectral kinetics ap...

hemoglobin is a porphyrin containing protein with an a2b2 tetrameric structure and like other porphyrin compounds shows spectral behavior of species specific characteristics. researchers tend to relate bands in the hemoglobin spectra to certain structural and/or functional features. given the fact that hemoglobin is the main oxygen carrier in animals functioning through the oxy«deoxy equilibriu...

in the present research, damage mechanisms during room temperature uniaxial tensile testing of two different modern high strength dual phase steels,dp780 and dp980, were studied. detailed microstructural characterization of the strained and sectioned samples was performed by scanning electron microscopy (sem). the results revealed that interface decohesion, especially at the triple junctions of...

ad hoc networks are multi-hop wireless networks without a pre-installed infrastructure. such networks are widely used in military applications and in emergency situations as they permit the establishment of a communication network at very short notice with a very low cost. video is very sensitive for packet loss and wireless ad-hoc networks are error prone due to node mobility and weak links. h...

in this paper, the dual area vector of a closed dual spherical curve is kinematically generatedand the dual steineer vector of a motion are extensively studied by the methods of differential geometry.jacobi’s theorems, known for real curves, are investigated for closed dual curves. the closed trajectorysurfaces generated by an oriented line are fixed in a moving rigid body in ir3 , in which the...

the present study investigates the crystal preferred orientation (cpo) of quartz crystals in psammitic rocks to ascertain the deformationmechanism using electron backscatter diffraction (ebsd) on quartz crystals from north of the renvyle-bofin slide (rbs) nearletterfrack in western ireland. complete crystallographic orientations were determined for several thousand individual quartz crystalsin ...

in 2012 august 11 (12:23 utc) a moderate earthquake with mw=6.4 (usgs) occurred between ahar and varzaghan towns in azarbayjan province at northwest of iran. after eleven minutes another earthquake shook the area with mw=6.2 (usgs). these consecutive earthquakes followed by intensive sequences of aftershocks whereas the strongest one had mw=5.3 (usgs). in data processing including depth modific...
