Quarries represent ‘landscapes archives’ as they supplied the stone required for historical buildings. Among them, Caumont ancient quarry stands out in northern France, with its huge dimensions and role, providing building stones at a regional scale since least Middle Ages. The present study aims to approach quarrying methods used over time by means of an optimized methodological approach. desi...

Introduction: When natural teeth lost, it becomes difficult to arrange the teeth in their original position in the complete denture. Variety of guides has been suggested for arrangement of artificial teeth. Incisive papilla is recognized as an important landmark to locate the maxillary anterior teeth position in complete denture fabrication. The objective of this study was to find the relation ...

Modern processing techniques for turkey involve rapid chilling to slow microbial growth and early deboning of the economically important breast meat. This paper shows that these 2 processes lead to significantly tougher meat with higher cooking losses. The toughening appears to be due to less extensive proteolysis and shortening of the sarcomeres. Calpains I and II and their inhibitor, calpasta...

The cytomatrix at the active zone (CAZ) has been implicated in defining the site of Ca2+-dependent exocytosis of neurotransmitter. We have identified here a novel CAZ protein of approximately 120 kD from rat brain and named it CAST (CAZ-associated structural protein). CAST had no transmembrane segment, but had four coiled-coil domains and a putative COOH-terminal consensus motif for binding to ...
