Let S = {x ∈ Rn | f1(x) ≥ 0, . . . , fs(x) ≥ 0} be a basic closed semi-algebraic set in Rn and let PO(f1, . . . , fs) be the corresponding preordering in R[X1, . . . , Xn]. We examine for which polynomials f there exist identities f + εq ∈ PO(f1, . . . , fs) for all ε > 0. These are precisely the elements of the sequential closure of PO(f1, . . . , fs) with respect to the finest locally convex ...

Entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) are lethal pathogens of agricultural insect pests. Little is known about their sublethal effects on the insect hosts. The lethal effects of Steinernema carpocapsae on fourth instar larvae of Colorado potato beetle (CPB), Leptinotarsa decemlineata were detected using soil infection and direct injection of the nematode into the hemocel. LC20 and LC80 values of 7....

To enable measur...

The value of the diffusion coefficient for oxygen in muscle is uncertain. The diffusion coefficient is important because it is a determinant of the extracellular oxygen tension at which the core of muscle fibers becomes anoxic (Po(2crit)). Anoxic cores in muscle fibers impair muscular function and may limit adaptation of muscle cells to increased load and/or activity. We used Hill's diffusion e...

Popis prípadu 57-ročná štíhla žena bola niekoľko rokov liečená nepravidelne betablokátorom pre kolísavú hypertenziu a občasné palpitácie. V auguste 1998 po večernom tanci pocítila silné bolesti na hrudi so spontánnym ústupom do 30 minút. Na druhý deň ráno bola pre recidívu bolestí hospitalizovaná v najbližšej nemocnici pre akútny anteroextenzívny infarkt myokardu a liečená heparinom. V popise t...
