various adjuvants in combination with different antigens have been utilized as a vaccine candidate against leishmaniasis. however, the search for ideal adjuvants is still pursued due to the inefficiencies of current compounds. in the present study, the effect of imiquimod, as an adjuvant, is studied with soluble leishmania antigens (sla) in balb/c mice. four groups of mice were immunized with s...

Individual differences, such as intelligence, learning style, motivation, age and so on, have been playing a significant role in second language acquisition (SLA). Particularly, this essay discusses what impacts personality has on well the implication future teaching practice. First, series of variables including extroversion/introversion, inhibition/risk-taking, anxiety, self-esteem empathy ar...

  Objective(s): Soluble Leishmania antigens (SLA) provide suitable protection against leishmaniasis in murine model when delivered by an appropriate delivery system. Liposomes have been shown to be suitable vaccine delivery systems against leishmaniasis, however, the phospholipase-A (PLA) activity of SLA is a drawback to prepare a stable liposomal SLA. One strategy to overcome this problem migh...

this case study reports a rare variation of the superior laryngeal artery (sla), which is the principal arterial supply of the larynx. the knowledge of the arterial variations is essential for the surgeons to prevent blood loss and postoperative complications. during routine dissection of an adult male cadaver, a rare arterial variation in the sla was seen. in this case, the sla passed through ...

Jang, Haejin, Jacob Wood, and Gohar Feroz Khan. 2017. A Social Network Analysis of Knowledge Infrastructure in the Second Language Acquisition Domain. Linguistic Research 34(Special Edition), 125-160. This study utilizes the social network analysis (SNA) technique to analyze and better understand the semantic and knowledge networks that are associated with the linguistic domain of second langua...

In utility computing, customer requests varying services from software to infrastructure as and when needed. As a result, there are many mobile cloud providers provide this services on demand basis as per current market needs. To ensure compliance and security, these providers establish a contract popularly known as Service Level Agreement (SLA) which states the services and management aspects....

Although the emergence of creoles presupposes naturalistic SLA, current SLA scholarship does not shed much light on the development of creoles with regard to the population-internal mechanisms that produce normalization and autonomization from the creoles’ lexifi ers. This is largely due to the fact that research on SLA is focused on individuals rather than on communities of speakers producing ...

This research addresses a critical issue of service level agreement (SLA) violation handling, i.e., time constraint violation related to service-based systems (SBS). Whenever an SLA violation occurs to a service, it can potentially impact dependent services, leading to unreliable SBS. Therefore, an SLA violation handling support is much required to produce a robust and adaptive SBS. There are s...

Due to the large variety in computing resources and, consequently, the large number of different types of Service Level Agreements (SLAs), any market for computing resources faces the potential problem of a low market liquidity. To counteract this problem, offering a set of standardized computing resources is appropriate. Each of these standardized computing resources is defined through an SLA ...

Despite a mere decade of existence, the field of computer learner corpus (CLC) research has been the focus of so much active international work that it seems worth taking a retrospective look at the research accomplished to date and considering the prospects for future research in both Second Language Acquisition (SLA) studies and Foreign Language Teaching (FLT) that emerge. One of the main dis...
