Construction and use of bacterial DNA microarrays based on an optimized two-stage PCR strategy
(BioMed Central, 2003-06-12)
Background: DNA microarrays are a powerful tool with important applications such as global gene expression profiling. Construction of bacterial DNA microarrays from genomic sequence data using a two-stage PCR amplification ...
Measurement of trilinear gauge boson couplings from WW + WZ → lnu jj events in pp[over ¯] collisions at √s=1.96 TeV
(2009-09-28)
We present a direct measurement of trilinear gauge boson couplings at γWW and ZWW vertices in WW and WZ events produced inpp[over ¯]collisions at √s = 1.96 TeV. We consider events with one electron or muon, missing transverse ...
Electromagnetically induced magnetochiral anisotropy in a resonant medium
(American Physical Society, 2005-06-14)
Chirality has been extensively studied for well over a century, and its potential applications range from optics to chemistry, medicine, and biology. Ingenious experiments have been designed to measure this naturally small ...
Levi-flat invariant sets of holomorphic symplectic mappings
(Association des Annales de l'Institut Fourier, 2001)
We classify four families of Levi-flat sets which are defined by quadratic polynomials and invariant under certain linear holomorphic symplectic maps. The normalization of Levi- flat real analytic sets is studied through ...
Bartonella henselae Pap31, an extracellular matrix adhesin, binds the fibronectin repeat III13 module
(American Society for Microbiology, 2006-05)
Bartonella henselae wound-associated infections suggest involvement of extracellular matrix molecules in adhesion and invasion. Pap31 was previously identified as a hemin-binding protein. Our recent studies suggest the ...
Biodegradation of benzene by halophilic and halotolerant bacteria under aerobic condition
(American Society for Microbiology, 2004-02)
A highly enriched halophilic culture was established with benzene as the sole carbon source by using a brine soil obtained from an oil production facility in Oklahoma. The enrichment completely degraded benzene, toluene, ...
Factors affecting adoption of cow-calf production practices in Oklahoma
(Cambridge University Press, 2008-12)
Most technology adoption research has focused on crops. Primary data were used to determine differences in management practices among two groups of Oklahoma cow-calf producers based on herd size and cattle income dependence. ...
AIDS-related knowledge and sexual behaviour among married and previously married persons in rural central Mozambique
(Informa UK Limited, 2009-11)
HIV prevalence in central Mozambique is the highest in the country with high urban rates impacting on the rural areas. To identify potential factors influencing the spread of HIV in three sparsely populated districts in ...
Sub- and superluminal propagation of intense pulses in media with saturated and reverse absorption
(American Physical Society, 2004-05-19)
We develop models for the propagation of intense pulses in solid state media which can have either saturated absorption or reverse absorption. We model subluminal propagation in ruby and superluminal propagation in alexandrite ...
Can multiyear rollover hedging increase mean returns?
(Cambridge University Press, 2005-04)
Both market advisors and researchers have often suggested multiyear rollover hedging as a way to increase producer returns. This study determines whether rollover hedging can increase expected returns for producers. For ...
