SAP applications can often comprise the core of IT operations in large enterprises. Companies that outsource their SAP landscape and basic operation to a private cloud can manage their resources flexibly in a way that meets demand and saves costs. Dynamic Services for SAP Solutions* and Application Operations for SAP Solutions* form a private cloud solution from TSystems which comprises both th...

to investigate the effect of droughtstress on chlorophyll content, enzymatic responses and some growth characteristics of acacia victoriae seedlings and the effect of super-absorbent polymers (sap) in reducing drought stress, a split plot experiment based on the completely randomized design was conducted. the treatments included four levels of drought stress (15, 30, 60 and 100% of field capaci...

X-linked lymphoproliferative disease (XLP) is a primary immunodeficiency caused by mutations in SH2D1A which encodes SAP. SAP functions in signalling pathways elicited by the SLAM family of leukocyte receptors. A defining feature of XLP is exquisite sensitivity to infection with EBV, a B-lymphotropic virus, but not other viruses. Although previous studies have identified defects in lymphocytes ...

OBJECTIVE To evaluate visual function and optic disc features in patients with large cup-disc ratios (C/Ds). METHODS One eye of 86 patients with vertical C/Ds by contour of at least 0.8, who had undergone both standard achromatic automated perimetry (SAP) and short-wavelength automated perimetry (SWAP) testing, was selected retrospectively. Two masked glaucoma specialists independently graded...

Aim: To determine if frequency doubling technology perimetry (FDT) is more sensitive to optic nerve injury in non-arteritic ischaemic optic neuropathy (NAION) than standard automated perimetry (SAP). Methods: Charts from 18 patients (20 eyes) with NAION with altitudinal defects who underwent a complete neuro-ophthalmic examination, SAP, and FDT were reviewed. The extent of damage as determined ...

We explored the influence of ulinastatin on apoptosis of T lymphocytes in rats with severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) and the effect of ulinastatin on mitochondrial apoptosis pathways in spleen lymphocytes. Thirty-six Wistar rats were randomly divided into three groups (N = 12): a sham operated group, a SAP group, and an ulinastatin-treated SAP group. The SAP model was established by injecting 5%...

Candida albicans is the most common fungal pathogen of humans and has developed an extensive repertoire of putative virulence mechanisms that allows successful colonization and infection of the host under suitable predisposing conditions. Extracellular proteolytic activity plays a central role in Candida pathogenicity and is produced by a family of 10 secreted aspartyl proteinases (Sap proteins...

Article history: Received October 15, 2011 Accepted 10 March 2012 Available online 14 March 2012 In order to prepare students for the workforce, academic programs incorporate a variety of tools that students are likely to use in their future careers. One of these tools employed by business and technology programs is the integration of live software applications such as SAP through the SAP Unive...

None of the mammalian splicing factors that have been cloned corresponds to the yeast pre-messenger RNA splicing factors, the PRP proteins. Here, a generalizable strategy was used to isolate a complementary DNA encoding the mammalian spliceosome-associated protein (SAP) SAP 62. It is demonstrated that SAP 62 is the likely functional homolog of the yeast PRP11 protein. Both PRP11 and SAP 62 asso...
