In the past two decades, comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography (GC×GC) has progressed from an interesting concept to forefront of thinking and research in chromatography. Especially when combined with mass spectrometry detection, GC×GC provides high resolution, sensitivity, massive chromatographic data sets, which is useful diverse fields such as petroleum analysis, metabolomics, foo...

the composition of the essential oils of teucrium chamaedrys l. belongs to the family lamiaceae, it is growing wild in the margin of mountainous roads of arid and cold climate of north iran. in this research, essential oils of t. chamaedrys, extracted and measured at the different location by different methods of distillationand then were analyzed by gc and gc/ms. investigation and comparison o...

An aspartate-to-alanine point mutation in the catalytic domain (D853A) of guanylyl cyclase-C (GC-C), the heat-stable enterotoxin (STa) receptor, rendered the enzyme catalytically inactive. Mn2+/Triton X-100-stimulated guanylyl cyclase activity was detected in membranes from COS7 cells overexpressing GC-C but not GC-CD853A. STa treatment of paired cells resulted in cGMP production in those trans...

We introduce an image segmentation algorithm, called GC(sum)(max), which combines, in novel manner, the strengths of two popular algorithms: Relative Fuzzy Connectedness (RFC) and (standard) Graph Cut (GC). We show, both theoretically and experimentally, that GC(sum)(max) preserves robustness of RFC with respect to the seed choice (thus, avoiding "shrinking problem" of GC), while keeping GC's s...

Gas chromatography-atmospheric-pressure chemical ionization-time-of-flight mass spectrometry (GC-APCI-TOFMS) was compared to GC × GC-electron ionization (EI)-TOFMS, GC-EI-TOFMS, GC-chemical ionization (CI)-quadrupole mass spectrometry (qMS), and GC-EI-qMS in terms of reproducibility, dynamic range, limit of detection, and quantification using a mix of 43 metabolites and 12 stable isotope-labele...

p73 gene shares structural and functional similarities to p53, and plays an important role in modulating cell-cycle arrest and apoptosis. A common non-coding polymorphism of exon 2 of the p73 gene (designated as GC/AT) may affect gene expression, thus, it may lead to functional significance. The correlation of this polymorphism with breast cancer survival has not been investigated. In this stud...
