The pattern community came about from a consciously crafted culture, a culture that has persisted, grown, and arguably thrived for a decade. The culture was built on a small number of explicit principles. The culture became embodied in its activities— conferences called PLoPs that centered on a social activity for reviewing technical works—and in a body of literature that has wielded broad infl...

Experiments on the primary structure of a histidine-rich polypeptide isolated from the malarial parasite Plasmodium lophurae indicate that the smaller quantities of amino acids other than histidine form an integral part of the polypeptide and do not arise from a protein contaminating a histidine homopolymer. In culture, the parasites incorporate over 50% of exogenously supplied histidine into t...

1. With strain L cells in culture the biological effects of oxygen rich environment have been observed with special reference to the cell growth, glycolysis, respiration, incorporation of P into ∆10 P and DNA synthesis. 2. Oxygen rich environment produces an increase in the vital activity of the cells at the initial stage of culture, i. e. increased activity of succinoxidase system, low glucose...

Bacteria have usually been studied in single culture rich media or under specific starvation conditions. However, nature they coexist with other microorganisms and build an advanced society.

The potential influence of leukocyte incorporation in the kinetic release of growth factors from platelet-rich plasma (PRP) may explain the conflicting efficiency of leukocyte platelet-rich plasma (L-PRP) scaffolds in tissue regeneration. To assess this hypothesis, leukocyte-free (PRGF-Endoret) and L-PRP fibrin scaffolds were prepared, and both morphogen and proinflammatory cytokine release kin...

OBJECTIVE The influence of progressively high concentrations of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) on human osteoblast hFOB1.19 proliferation was evaluated. MATERIAL AND METHODS The PRP was obtained from a human source. Two experiments were conducted. In the first one, PRP was diluted to 50%, 25%, 12.5% and 6.125% (v/v) with culture medium (Modified Eagle's Medium (MEM) : Ham's F12 Medium (HAM-F12%) ...

Since the 18th National Congress of Party, promoting national culture and building self-confidence in has been main direction cultural development today. In particular, 20th once again proposed “promoting people's self-improvement, creating a new glory socialist culture-inheriting outstanding traditional Chinese culture.” The curriculum ideology political given to university teachers is that ex...

Traditional Chinese folk graphics has been the rich cultural heritage of the nation, which provided a wealth of design elements for the modern graphic design. Modern graphic design blends with traditional Chinese folk patterns to give them new characteristics of the times, not only represents the traditional culture and innovation, but also indicates that China's graphic design is entering a ne...

To enculturate conversational interfaces it is indespensable to gain insights in culture specific differences of interaction patterns. Information found in the literature is often very general or more of an anecdotal character. In this paper we present a corpus of culture specific interaction patterns that was collected under standardized conditions in Germany and Japan and thus presents a rich...
