1. Sharksuckers use active branchial ventilation when swimming or at rest in stationary water. When attached to a moving object or when placed in a water current, they shift to ram gill ventilation as water velocity exceeds a certain threshold. 2. Water velocities required for the transition from active to ram gill ventilation were from 10-50 cm s-1, depending on the size of the fish. 3. Oxygen...

ABSTRACT We present a search for disturbed, candidate ram pressure stripping galaxies across more than 50 spectroscopically selected SDSS groups and clusters. 48 candidates are visually identified in these systems using high-quality UNIONS imaging from the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope, covering ${\sim }6200\, \mathrm{deg^2}$ }2800\, u- r-bands, respectively. Ram found clusters spanning wide r...

Quantum-dot cellular automata (QCA) is a novel and potentially attractive technology for implementing computing architectures at the nano-scale. By applying a set of simple layout rules, arbitrary circuits can be made using QCA cells. In this work, we describe the design and layout of a QCA random access memory (RAM), showing the layout of individual memory cells, as well as, a suggested layout...

Most people have experienced loneliness and have been able to overcome it to reconnect with other people. In the current review, we provide a life-span perspective on one component of the evolutionary theory of loneliness-a component we refer to as the reaffiliation motive (RAM). The RAM represents the motivation to reconnect with others that is triggered by perceived social isolation. Loneline...

We evaluated single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) detection via a target-capture, C-probe ligation, and RAM assay in a single-blind comparison to clinical samples that had been tested with FDA-cleared tests for up to 4 different vascular disease-related SNPs. In the RAM assay circulizable linear probes (C- or padlock probes) were annealed directly to genomic DNA, processed on a largely automate...

Resonant acoustic® mixing (RAM) technology is a system that performs high-speed mixing by vibration through the control of acceleration and frequency. In recent years, real-time process monitoring and prediction has become of increasing interest, and process analytical technology (PAT) systems will be increasingly introduced into actual manufacturing processes. This study examined the applicati...

Objetivo: Avaliar os impactos que a informatização dos gatilhos utilizados no processo de investigação ativa reação adversa medicamentos (RAM) promoveu um serviço farmacovigilância. Metodologia: Estudo observacional e retrospectivo com dados dispensação classificados como “gatilhos” em prontuário eletrônico, cujo sistema informatizado informação saúde (SIS) gerou relatórios contendo do paciente...

information on animal daily forage needs is essential for an estimation of rangeland grazing capacity. accordingly, weight and animal unit equivalent (aue) for each individual class of animal should be determined. live weights of baloochi sheep as based on average live weights of 3 and 4 year old ewes were determined. five herds of baloochi breed sheep were selected for the task. in each herd, ...
