Conidia were germinated at three temperatures in media in which available water, expressed as water activity, was controlled at three levels. Rate of germination in the basal medium (0.9964 water activity) was most rapid at 25 C and was inhibited at 15 and 30 C. Lowering the water activity at a particular temperature decreased rates of germination. However, at a low water activity (0.9778) germ...

We consider the calculations of three-point functions at nite temperature as they are usually performed in the literature. We show that as normally used, the Imaginary-Time and the Real Time nite temperature formalisms calculate expectation values of retarded and time ordered three point functions respectively. We also present a relation between these quantities that shows that they are not gen...

We study 3-point functions at finite temperature in the closed time path formalism. We give a general decomposition of the eight component tensor in terms of seven vertex functions. We derive a spectral representation for these seven functions in terms of two independent real spectral functions. We derive relationships between the seven functions and obtain a representation of the vertex tensor...

easily degradating and various isomeric forms of rapamycin (sirolimus) face the determination of this compound to many challenges. in this study, we developed and validated the isocratic reversed phase high performance liquid chromatographic (rp-hplc) method for rapamycin. separation was performed on a c8 column (mz, 15 × 4.6 mm, 5 µm particle size) using methanol:water (80:20 v/v) as the mobil...
