objective: herpes simplex virus (hsvs) is a widespread human infectious agent, responsible for persistent and latent infections. herpes simplex virus infections are usually continually recurrent in the normal population and represent a significant cause of complications in immunocompromised patients. materials and methods: in this study hsvs were propagated in bk cells and more than 502 sample...

Previous work' has shown that epidemic diarrhea of infant mice (EDIM) is a virus-induced disease that can spread in mouse colonies by the airborne route. This fact made it imperative, under the ordinary conditions of animal care available at that time, to limit the incubation period of experimentally induced diarrhea to three days, since animals becoming ill after that time might have acquired ...

HIV-1 Envelope (Env) variants are grouped into tiers by their neutralization-sensitivity phenotype. This helped to recognize that tier 1 neutralization responses can be elicited readily, but do not protect against new infections. Tier 3 viruses are the least sensitive to neutralization. Because most circulating viruses are tier 2, vaccines that elicit neutralization responses against them are n...

Carboxymethyl Cellulose (CMC) a compound made from starch of tubers ganyong flour with added methanol, propanol and water. Four process involving alkalization process, karboksimetilasi, neutralization in the making CMC. Carboxymethylization alkazation proess Alkazation is reaction between cellulose soda solution (alkaline) to become alkaline (cellulose soluble solution). rection sodium chloro a...

A multimodel controller design procedure combined with gain scheduling methods is evaluated for a highly nonlinear chemical process. The controller synthesis method is based on a mixed H2/H∞ problem to achieve good quadratic performance and robustness for a multimodel plant description. The performance obtained with the optimal multimodel controller, gain scheduled controllers and conventional ...

This paper addresses the issue of controlling nonlinear processes by the use of the nonlinear model predictive control formulation. To handle the nonlinearities, a neuro-fuzzy process model is suggested as a means to model processes with strong nonlinearities depending on the operating region. In this paper the neurofuzzy approach is used for the modelling and control of a strongly nonlinear pH...

Defensins are effectors of the innate immune response with potent antibacterial activity. Their role in antiviral immunity, particularly for non-enveloped viruses, is poorly understood. We recently found that human alpha-defensins inhibit human adenovirus (HAdV) by preventing virus uncoating and release of the endosomalytic protein VI during cell entry. Consequently, AdV remains trapped in the ...

Nine monoclonal antibodies specific for glycoprotein D (gD) of herpes simplex virus type 1 were selected for their ability to neutralize virus in the presence of complement. Four of these antibodies exhibited significant neutralization titers in the absence of complement, suggesting that their epitope specificities are localized to site(s) which contribute to the role of gD in virus infectivity...

Oil sludge is a solid or pasty oil-containing waste, which heterophase system of organic, water and mineral parts in the form sand, dust, silt, metal compounds, ratio varies over very wide range. formed during construction oil gas wells, direct extraction useful component, refining, purification oil-polluted waters reservoirs. This waste that generated large enough quantities, for placement are...

In the search for effective immunologic interventions to prevent and treat HIV-1 infection, standardized reference reagents are a cost-effective way to maintain robustness and reproducibility among immunological assays. To support planned and ongoing studies where clade C predominates, here we describe three virus panels, chosen from 200 well-characterized clade C envelope (Env)-pseudotyped vir...
