In recent years, the elliptic curve cryptosystems (ECC) have received attention
due to their increased security with smaller key size which brings the advantage of less
storage area and less bandwidth. Elliptic curve cryptography provides a methodology
for obtaining high-speed, efficient, and scalable implementations of network security
protocols. In addition...
Cell lines deficient in certain genes of the DNA mismatch repair (MMR) system show a marked resistance to the cell killing or apoptotic effects of DNA alkylating agents. The molecular mechanism for this resistance is not yet understood, but is currently of great interest because of the recent use of...
Llama reproductive physiology is unique when compared with other livestock species. Llamas carry 95-98% of all pregnancies in the left uterine horn. It is believed that there is a physiological difference between the uterine horns that contributes to this phenomenon. This study examined the uterine environment for protease and protease...
