Here, we report the draft genome sequence of Sphingobium sp. strain BHC-A, a lin gene-based hexachlorocyclohexane (HCH)-degrading strain, isolated from soil that suffered long-term HCH contamination in an insecticide factory.

Using first-principles calculations, the energetic stability of two-dimensional (2D) binary compounds $XY$ is investigated, where $X$ and $Y$ indicate metallic element from Li to Pb in periodic table. Here, 1081 buckled honeycomb (BHC), square, B2, $\mathrm{L}{1}_{0}$, ${\mathrm{B}}_{h}$ structures are studied. For that have negative formation energy BHC structure or can structure, phonon dispe...

PURPOSE The objective of this study was to elucidate the role of collagen membranes (CMs) when used in conjunction with bovine hydroxyapatite particles incorporated with collagen matrix (BHC) for lateral onlay grafts in dogs. METHODS The first, second, and third premolars in the right maxilla of mongrel dogs (n=5) were extracted. After 2 months of healing, two BHC blocks (4 mm×4 mm×5 mm) were...

L INK AND COWORKERS’234 were the first to show that a chemical and pharmacologic relationship exists between bishydroxycoumarin ( BHC ), its analogs and structurally related compounds and salicylic acid. Subsequently, it was found that methyl salicylate caused hypoprothrombinemia in rabbits but not in dogs.5 Several workers5#{176} have reported that chronic administration of acetylsalicylic aci...

in this paper we introduce the notions of g∗l-module and g∗l-module whichare two proper generalizations of δ-lifting modules. we give some characteriza tions and properties of these modules. we show that a g∗l-module decomposesinto a semisimple submodule m1 and a submodule m2 of m such that every non-zero submodule of m2 contains a non-zero δ-cosingular submodule.

Statistical classification of hyperspectral data is challenging because the input space is high in dimension and correlated, but labeled information to characterize the class distributions is typically sparse. The resulting classifiers are often unstable and have poor generalization. A new approach that is based on the concept of random forests of classifiers and implemented within a multiclass...

The MC1R gene plays a crucial role in pigmentation synthesis. Loss-of-function MC1R variants, which impair protein function, are associated with red hair color (RHC) phenotype and increased skin cancer risk. Cultured cutaneous cells bearing loss-of-function MC1R variants show a distinct gene expression profile compared to wild-type MC1R cultured cutaneous cells. We analysed the gene signature a...

The meridian-collateral theory is the theoretical basis of acupuncture-moxibustion therapy. Professor Bonghan Kim, a professor of the Pyongyang Medical University of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, claimed that he found the anatomical structure of meridian-collaterals, named Bonghan corpuscles (BHCs) and Bonghan ducts (BHDs) system or primo vascular system (PVS), in 1962. From 1963 t...

We consider the equivalence classes of graphs induced by the unsigned versions of the Reidemeister moves on knot diagrams. Any graph which is reducible by some finite sequence of these moves, to a graph with no edges is called a knot graph. We show that the class of knot graphs strictly contains the set of delta-wye graphs. We prove that the dimension of the intersection of the cycle and cocycl...
