The ratio of the production cross sections for W and Z bosons in association with jets has been measured in proton-proton collisions at s√=7TeV with the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider. The measurement is...

In the course of our studies on 3H-1,2-dithiole-3-thione synthesis, a serendipitous reactivity with á-haloketones, in the presence of excess of potassium iodide, has been observed. Instead of the expected reaction of th...

Scientists, managers, and policy-makers need functional and effective metrics to improve our understanding and management of biological invasions. Such metrics would help to assess progress towards management goals, in...

Using the example of our own work about astronomies in the Argentinian Chaco, we show the fruitfulness of a regional approach to ethnoastronomical studies. Our interest is to highlight the relevance of thinking the astro...

Lactococcus lactis CRL 1584 isolated from a Lithobates catesbeianus hatchery inhibits the growth of Citrobacter freundii (a bullfrog pathogen) and Listeria monocytogenes by a synergistic effect between lactic acid, hydro...

α-l-Rhamnosidase (E.C. 3.2.1.40) from Brevundimonas sp. Ci19 was immobilized as a cross-linked enzyme aggregate (CLEA) via precipitation with acetone followed by glutaraldehyde cross-linking. The effects of precipitatio...

The behaviours of several cationic polyelectrolytes (chitosan; polyquaternium-4; diethylaminoethyl dextran; polyquaternium-10, and aminoacrylmethacrylate copolymer, Eudragit® E100) at a polarised liquid/liquid interface...

We report electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) measurements at 9 and 34 GHz, and room temperature (T), in powder and single crystal samples of the ternary compounds of copper nitrate or copper chloride with glycine and ...

We investigate the correlations between different bipartitions of an exactly solvable one-dimensional many-body Moshinsky model consisting of Nn nuclei and Ne electrons. We study the dependence of entanglement on the int...

Background: In inland water systems, it is important to characterize the trophic links in order to identify the ‘trophic species’ and, from the studies of functional diversity, understand the dynamics of matter and e...

Rationale: Ghrelin (Ghr) is a peptide that participates in the modulation of several biological processes. Ghr administration into the hippocampus improves learning and memory in different memory tests. However, the poss...

After reductions of fugitive and diffuse emissions by an industrial complex, a follow-up study was performed to determine the time variability of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and the lifetime cancer risk (LCR). Pass...

A study about the relationship between molecular properties of open-chain enaminones and their anticonvulsant activity is presented in this paper. Geometry optimizations of the enaminones were performed at HF and DFT/B3L...

The Semantic Web provides an effective infrastructure that allows data to be easily shared and reused across applications. At its core is the description of ontological knowledge using ontological languages which are pow...

Bacillus cereus is an endospore-forming, Gram-positive bacterium able to cause food-borne diseases. Lactic acid bacteria are known for their ability to synthesize organic acids and bacteriocins, but the potential of thes...

Since ischemic heart disease (IHD) is a major cause of mortality and heart failure, novel therapeutic strategies are expected to improve the clinical outcomes of patients with acute myocardial infarction. Brief episodes ...

We consider composite Higgs models where the Higgs is a pseudo-Nambu Goldstone boson arising from the spontaneous breaking of an approximate global symmetry by some underlying strong dynamics. We focus on the SO(5) → S...

DNA is continuously exposed to damaging agents that can lead to changes in the genetic information with adverse consequences. Nonetheless, eukaryotic cells have mechanisms such as the DNA damage response (DDR) to prevent...

We investigate if a recently introduced formulation of general relativity on a Weyl-Integrable geometry, contains cosmological solutions exhibiting acceleration in the present cosmic expansion. We derive the general cond...

We have previously reported the radioprotective effect of propylthiouracil (PTU) on thyroid cells. The aim of the present study was to analyze whether tumor cells and normal cells demonstrate the same response to PTU. Hu...

The purpose of the present paper is to consider the traditional interpretive problems of quantum mechanics from the viewpoint of a modal ontology of properties. In particular, we will try to delineate a quantum ontology ...

Livestock ranching is one of the main productive activities in arid regions of the world. Grazing produces changes in animal as well as plant communities (e.g. richness, abundance and species dominance relationships). An...

The incorporation and trophic transfer of total and methyl mercury (THg, MeHg) were examined in three size classes of plankton (10–53, 53–200, and >200 μm size range) and a small planktivorous fish, Galaxias maculat...

We study a simple model of a forager as a walk that modifies a relaxing substrate. Within it simplicity, this provides an insight on a number of relevant and non-intuitive facts. Even without memory of the good places to...
