Discontinuous sodium dodecyl sulfate slab gel electrophoresis of G1 globulin from several strains of Phaseolus vulgaris L. seed permitted clear resolution of the constituent polypeptides. Three strains (Tendergreen, Canadian Wonder, and BBL 240) had subunits of molecular weight 53,000, 47,000 and 43,000 while two strains (Seafarer and PI 229,815) had 50,500, 47,000 and 43,000 molecular weight s...

Although vascular compliance, deltaV/deltaP, is abnormal in essential hypertension and can be improved by antihypertensive drug therapy, it is not clear whether drug-induced changes in compliance are attributable solely to lower achieved blood pressure (BP), and thus equally likely with different drugs possessing similar antihypertensive efficacy. Therefore, we used computerized arterial pulse ...

In recent decades, the central North Sea has been experiencing a general trend of decreasing dissolved oxygen (O2) levels during summer. To understand potential causes driving lower O2, we investigated a 3-day period of summertime turbulence and O2 dynamics in the thermocline and bottom boundary layer (BBL). The study focuses on coupling biogeochemical with physical transport processes to ident...

[1] The influence of nearshore wind stress curl on the relative partitioning of bottom boundary layer (BBL) and interior transport within an idealized, two-dimensional coastal upwelling system is studied theoretically and using a numerical model. A nearshore reduction in upwelling favorable wind stress amplitude (1) reduces the width of the inner shelf, (2) reduces the local wind-driven Ekman t...

Tracers released into the pelagic, stratified center of lakes, show that interior mixing—based on both mode-related internal shear and higherfrequency internal waves – is extremely weak. After horizontal spreading, the tracers “feel” the local bottom boundaries (BBL) and the basin-scale diapycnal (vertical) mixing increases by more than one order of magnitude. Balancing kinetic energy and dissi...

Studies in model organisms suggest that aged cells can be functionally rejuvenated, but whether this concept applies to human skin is unclear. Here we apply 3'-end sequencing for expression quantification ("3-seq") to discover the gene expression program associated with human photoaging and intrinsic skin aging (collectively termed "skin aging"), and the impact of broadband light (BBL) treatmen...

Extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) production in members of the Enterobacteriaceae can confer resistance to extended-spectrum cephalosporins, aztreonam, and penicillin. As such, the accurate detection of ESBL producers is essential for the appropriate selection of antibiotic therapy. Twenty previously characterized isolates and 49 clinical isolates suspected of ESBL production were tested ...

This paperdescribes the fabricationof ananostructuredheterojunctionof twoconjugatedpolymersbya three-stepprocess: i) spincoating a multilayered film of the two polymers, ii) rolling the film into a cylinder (a ‘‘jelly roll’’) and iii) sectioning the film perpendicular to the axis of the roll with an ultramicrotome (nanoskiving). The conjugated polymers are poly(benzimidazobenzophenanthroline la...

Production of mature oil fields emits significant amount CO2 related to circulation and handling large volumes gas water. This can be reduced either by (1) using a low-carbon energy source and/or (2) reducing the non-hydrocarbon produced/injected fluids. paper describes how improved recovery techniques designed reduce intensity (kgCO2/bbl oil) production efficient use injectants. It is shown th...

Brain based learning (BBL) merupakan model pembelajaran yang mengoptimalkan cara kerja otak untuk mendapat pengetahuan. Latar belakang penelitian ini dilakukan karena seringnya terjadi bias kepada siswa dalam menjelaskan tentang konsep matematika, hal yaitu pada materi pembagian kelas III SD. Bias tersebut kurangnya pendekatan berbasis kehidupan nyata siswa. Penelitian bertujuan melihat pengaru...
