Intracellular sucrose compartmentation in the palisade parenchyma of Vicia faba L. leaflets was investigated by comparing the specific radioactivity of photosynthetically labeled [(14)C]sucrose in samples enriched in vacuole to that in samples enriched in cytoplasm. Brief centrifugation of leaflet punches was used to sediment most of the palisade parenchyma cytoplasm in the adaxial ends of the ...

Supplementary Materials and Methods Tissue microarrays In this study, two different sets of tissue microarrays were used. One set was the screening tissue microarray, TA30-A, which was used to evaluate CTMP expression in different cancers. TA30-A contains a total of 146 normal and tumor punches representing colon, breast, gastric, and liver cancer and lung adenocarcinoma. The other set was the ...

A novel single punch tablet machine was developed for a tiny amount of powder sample. This tablet machine mainly consists of upper and lower punches, single die, and conical powder feeder equipped with micro-vibrators. By using the powder feeder, mass of discharged powder can be maintained constant even if a tiny amount of powder having poor flowability is used. Motions of both upper and lower ...

We measured the nondipole parameters for the spin-orbit doublets Xe 4d5/2 and Xe 4d3/2 over a photon-energy range from 100 eV to 250 eV at beamline 8.0.1.3 of the Advanced Light Source at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. Significant nondipole effects are found at relatively low energies as a result of Cooper minima in dipole channels and interchannel coupling in quadrupole channels. M...

This paper investigates a cylindrical nonlinear Schrödinger (cNLS) equation, which describes the cylindrically diverging quasi-plane envelope waves in a nonlinear medium. With the Hirota method and symbolic computation, bilinear form and N-soliton solutions in the form of an Nth-order polynomial in N exponentials are obtained for the cNLS equation. By means of the properties of double Wronskian...

Inverted papilloma is the most common benign tumor of nose and paranasal sinuses arising from lateral nasal wall and middle meatus. Histologically these tumors are composed of epithelial nests that are inverted, exophytic and cylindrical. Here we describe a clinical case of nasal cylindrical cell papilloma, which was treated by endoscopic excision.

An algorithm is presented for the geometric analysis of an algebraic curve f (x,y) = 0 in the real affine plane. It computes a cylindrical algebraic decomposition (CAD) of the plane, augmented with adjacency information. The adjacency information describes the curve’s topology by a topologically equivalent planar graph. The numerical data in the CAD gives an embedding
