The in vitro biosynthesis of metallothionein (MT) was investigated in thrombocyte precursors (megakaryocytes) isolated from human cord blood. Biosynthesis and induction of MT in magnetic cell sorting-separated CD61(+) megakaryocytes was confirmed by immunohistochemical staining using monoclonal mouse anti-MT. The presence of MT was detected both in

Abstract: This describes the finite element based fatigue life prediction of cylinder head for two-stroke linear engine subjected to variable amplitude loading applicable to electric power generation. A set of Al-alloys, cast iron and forged steel for cylinder head are considered in this study.American Journal of Applied Sciences 7 (10): 1364-1 371

The aim of this paper is to present a hybrid electrical air-cushion tracked vehicle (HETAV). Mathematical models are incorporated with accounting the kinematics and dynamics behaviors of the vehicle. Sinkage of the HETAV is sensed by an ultrasonic displacement (UD) sensor in order to operate the air-cushion system. The air-cushion of HETAV is prote

Juvenile nasopharyngeal angiofibroma (JNA) is a rare benign neoplasm that occurs almost exclusively in the nasopharynx of adolescent males. Surgery remains the primary treatment of choice. JNA has always presented a management challenge to surgeons because of its vascular nature, site of occurrence, and local tissue destruction. The surgical approa

In the near future many aspect of our life will be encompassed by tasks performing in cooperation with robot. The application of robot in home automation, agriculture production and medical operations etc will indispensable. As a result robot needs to be made human-friendly and to execute tasks in cooperation with human. Researchers proposed many n

In addition to stability at high temperatures, thermophilic enzymes also possess great resistance against proteolysis, detergents and chaotropic agents (Sellek and Chaudhuri, 1999). For this reasons, there was more attention to consider for their future use in organic solvent. Bacillus sp. strain 42 producing a solventstable thermostable lipase was

No bibliography of Waqf literature has ever been compiled in any of the five countries covered by this study. With the help of field-study, 305 material on waqf have been found, covering the period of last thirty years-1977-2007. India having produced 124 waqf materials, during the last thirty years, tops the list, followed by Malaysia (70), Indone

The effects of introducing common carp (CC) and of adding artificial feed to fertilized rohu ponds on water quality and nutrient accumulation efficiency were studied. All ponds were stocked with 15000 rohu ha-1. Treatments included ponds with rohu alone, rohu plus 5000 common carp ha-1 and rohu plus 10000CC ha-1. Acomparisonwas alsomade between sup

The effects of two benthivorous fishes, common carp (Cyprinus carpio) and calbasu (Labeo calbasu), on bottom soil resuspension, water quality, nutrient accumulations, fish diet and growth of rohu (Labeo rohita) were compared. In this study, individual tanks receiving bottom soil and water from a central pond were used to more naturally simulate roh
