An infection rate of 8.4% with cystic echinococcosis (Hydatidosis) was recovered among 1,050 sheep, goats, cattle and camels in Shahat abattoir in Al-Jabal, Libya. Of 554 sheep, 48 (8.7%) sheep were infected. Of 338 goats, 18 (5.4%) goats were infected. Of 124 cattle, 8 (6.4) cattle were infected and of 40 camels, 14 (35.0%) camels were infected. The animals were of both sexes and of various ag...

PURPOSE This study evaluates the extent to which bilingual children produce the same or overlapping responses on tasks assessing semantic skills in each of their languages and whether classification analysis based on monolingual or conceptual scoring can accurately classify the semantic development of typically developing (TD) bilingual children. METHOD In Study 1, 55 TD children (ages 4;0 [y...

This paper analyzes the impact of biased beliefs on the structure of informational equilibria in classical self-selection models. Using the intuitive insurance market example of Rothschild-Stiglitz (1976) I show that biases of high-risk individuals have fundamentally different effects on equilibrium contracts than biases of low-risk individuals. Whereas equilibrium contracts of both groups are ...

Through joined two sensitive methods solvation and cloud point extraction separated and determined micro amount of Ce(III) from aqueous solutions by using organic reagent 2,4-Dimethyl pentan-3-one (2,4-DMP) as extractant and non-ionic surfactant 1% TritonX-100 , the experimental study shows the solvation species of Ce+3 extracted into cloud point layer (CPL) have a wavelength for maximum absorb...

The new species is a member of an apparently monophyletic group within the genus that includes R. flexile, R. walga, R. himanturi, R. burgeri, R. euzeti, R. hawaiiensis, R. urobatidium, R. paratrygoni, R. ditesticulum, R. tetralobatum, R. margaritense, R. biorchidum, and R. spinicephalum.

Bentonite clay collected from Jabal Umm Ali area NE of Khartoum (Sudan) was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD). It was then purified by treatment with distilled water and activated with sulfuric acid at 90 oC for 3.5 hrs. XRD indicated modification of activated bentonite with enhanced surface area. Several cations were removed from octahedral sheet (Mg, Al, and Fe). Increasing the acid co...
