The objective of this study was to investigate the physicochemical properties and maturity different livestock manures during composting in an opened-static pile system. horse manure (HM), dairy cow (DM), Hanwoo (KM) goat (GM) were used with sawdust as a bulking agent adjust C/N for its relative high carbon content accelerate odor-free process due absorption excess moisture. temperature profile...

The use of end-group analysis is valuable for determining the homogeneity and molecular weight of macromolecules. The synthesis of RNA upon a DNA template proceeds from the 5'to the 3'-end of the RNA sequence, and the identification of the 5'-termini of RNA molecules is therefore of particular importance in characterizing them. With this in view, a procedure for analyzing 5'-terminal nucleotide...

Cryptococcosis is caused by either Cryptococcus neoformans or C. gattii. While cryptococcal meningoencephalitis is caused mostly by C. neoformans in immunocompromised patients, the risk factors remain unclear for patients with no known immune defect. Recently, anti-granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) autoantibodies were detected in the plasma of seven "immunocompetent" cry...

Several lines of evidence suggest that the immune activation after myocardial infarction (MI) induces secondary myocardial injury. Although dendritic cells (DC) are potent regulators of immunity, their role in MI is still undetermined. We investigated the effect of DC modulation by CSF on left ventricular (LV) remodeling after MI. MI was induced by ligation of the left coronary artery in male W...

An experiments were conducted in open culture system to study the effect of food additives i.e. vitamin C and sodium bentonite improve diets characteristics common carp Cyprinus carpio concentrations 100, 250 500 mg C/ kg diet 10, 20 30 gm S.B./ diet. The results indicate that there was a significant differences (P<0.01) between contain superior than without it (control) weight increase fish...

Cyclodextrin glucanotransferase (CGTase, EC 2.4.1.19) is an important member of α-amylase family which can degrade the starch and produce cyclodextrins (CDs) as a result of intramolecular transglycosylation (cyclization). β-Cyclodextrin production was carried out using the purified CGTase enzyme from an alkaliphile Microbacterium terrae KNR 9 with different starches in raw as well as gelatinize...

The cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p21WAF1/Cip1 and Survivin enhance granulocyte macrophage colony-forming unit (CFU-GM) cell cycle and proliferation and have been implicated as antiapoptotic proteins. We investigated the relationships between p21 and Survivin in primary CFU-GM and c-kit+, lineage-negative (Lin-) cells and demonstrate p21-dependent and -independent pathways whereby Survivin ...

UNLABELLED The research involving tissue factors, such as granulocyte macrophage colonies stimulating factor (GM-CSF) and interleukin 5 (IL-5), leads to the mechanisms involved in the maintenance of eosinophilia, which is essential for the pathogenesis on eosinophilic nasal polyps. Mitomycin C has been successfully used in otolaryngology. AIM The objective of this study was to evaluate the ef...

hence it yields an isomorphism between the quotient additive group C/2πiZ and the multiplicative group C×. The group C× is the group of complex points of the multiplicative group Gm; z 7→ e is the exponential function of the multiplicative group Gm. We shall replace this algebraic group by an elliptic curve. We could replace it also by other commutative algebraic groups. As a first example, the...
