noscopy showed diffuse mucosal edema through the entire colon, with multiple reddish erosions and contact bleeding (Fig. A). On colonoscopic biopsy, homogenous amyloid deposits were seen in the parenchyma and vessels (Fig. B, H&E, ×200), and Congo red staining for the amyloid, coupled with polarized light, demonstrated the characteristic apple-green birefringence (Fig. C, Congo red, ×400). Ches...

plant samples were collected from yazd, isfahan, fars and tehran provinces and examined for their possible infection by hop stunt viroid (hsvd). the experimental host range of the viroid was determined by injection of infected sap into greenhouse grown seedlings and subsequent assay of inoculated plants by rt-pcr. fig, mulberry and citrus isolates of the viroid were compared with respect to hos...

Figs are one of the oldest known crops. The identification of different varieties is clouded and confused because of this long history. Efforts were made at various times to describe an accurate system for identifying varieties, with limited success.

Figs are remarkable not only for their unusual fruits, quite distinct from any other, but also for their relationship with a group of wasps in which different species pollinate different fig species. The relationship is symbiotic, as the figs are pollinated by the wasps but the insects lay their eggs in some of the flowers that form a food source for the larvae. Tucson, describe the association...

Nanotubes, nanowires and nanobelts are important one-dimensional (1D) nanomaterials that are the foundation for nanoscience and nanotechnology (Fig. 1a). 1D nanomaterials have important applications in electronics, optoelectronics, sensors, biomedical science, environmental science, green energy and advanced defence technologies. This themed issue on inorganic 1D nanomaterials gathers papers ab...

The top row of Fig. 4 C was labeled incorrectly, and should appear as " Control ". The far right column of Fig. S2 B was labeled incorrectly, and should appear as " LMN + TM ". Corrected images appear below. Figure 4. (C) Representative images of U2OS cells with Sec61-GFP (green) and H2B-tdTomato (red) compares control cells with cells in which NE formation was accelerated by overexpression of ...

Fig 3. Experimental 2DJ data from a lactate phantom with 2D fit and residue. PRESS with TE from 21ms to 331ms in steps of 10ms, recorded at 3T. Fig 1. Fitted time series of spectra obtained after an oral histidine load at time 0. The red signals with varying amplitude originate from histidine, the green doublet from the amide proton of NAA, and the blue lines from the rest of the downfield spec...
