Every day the global media system produces an abundance of news stories, all containing many references to people. An important task is to automatically generate reliable lists of people by analysing news content. We describe a system that leverages large amounts of data for this purpose. Lack of structure in this data gives rise to a large number of ways to refer to any particular person. Enti...

mono-specific antisera against vibrio cholera ogawa nih-43 and vibrio cholera inaba 35-a3 were prepared from rabbit hyperimmune sera by absorbing against a heterologous strain. using ammonium sulphate precipitation procedure, gamma globulins were purified and concentrated. to visualize antigen-antibody reaction, gamma globulins were conjugated to staphylococcus aureus cowan-l (nctc: 8325) in th...

In Mexico, actinomycetoma is mainly caused by Nocardia brasiliensis, which is a soil inhabitant actinobacterium. Here, we report for the first time the draft genome of a strain isolated from a human case that has largely been found in in vitro and experimental models of actinomycetoma, N. brasiliensis HUJEG-1.

The number of inflammatory gastroenteritis outbreaks due to the food-borne pathogen Vibrio parahaemolyticus is rising sharply worldwide and in the United States in particular. Here we report the complete, annotated genome sequence of the prepandemic V. parahaemolyticus strain BB22OP and make some initial comparisons to the complete genome sequence for pandemic strain RIMD2210633.

We report here the complete genome sequence of Clostridioides difficile strain DH/NAP11/106/ST-42, which is now the most common strain causing C. difficile infection among U.S. adults. This strain was isolated from the stool from a hospitalized pediatric patient with frequent relapses of C. difficile infection.

The first total syntheses of multifidosides A-C have been achieved. The synthetic strategy is characterized by catalytic site-selective acylation of unprotected glycoside precursors in the final stage of the synthesis. High functional-group tolerance of the site-selective acylation, promoted by an organocatalyst, enabled the conventionally difficult molecular transformation in a predictable and...

the present study is an attempt to find out cultural exophoric references in four common english textbooks, namely touch stone, american file, top notch, and total english series used at iranian english language institutes and to compare the frequency of occurrence of such references in these coursebooks. in order to compare cultural exophoric references used in these coursebooks, the researche...
