A systematic study of highly branched isoprenoids (HBI) was carried out in
suspended particulate material (SPM) and Washington coastal sediments to determine
their origin and fate. SPM collected at 10 m depth was filtered through Nitex
membranes. C₂₅ HBI were found only in the 1.2-40 μm range over the shelf....
Pharmacokinetic parameters for theophylline and
dyphylline were evaluated in horse cerebrospinal fluid
(csf) and plasma. Pharmacokinetic parameters did not
differ significantly (p > 0.05) at the same dose for
either drug when administered alone or concomitantly.
Theophylline and dyphylline penetrate horse csf to
produce approximately 1/2 the concentrations found in...
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is characterized by an accumulation of neutral lipids in the form of triglycerides and cholesterol esters accounting for >5% of liver weight. Excess neutral lipids accumulate in large lipid droplets, i.e., macrosteatosis, displacing the nucleus of cells. Current theory suggests neutral lipid accumulation is the...
Porous carbon is indispensable in modern technology applications. It is used for energy storage, gas separation, water purification, catalyst support, and chromatography. The diversity of its applications stems from its unique properties, including high specific surface area, tunable pore volume, and chemical stability. Specifically, the large surface area provides high...
A survey of scholarly and popular contemporary literature
reveals two persisting stereotypes regarding the
nature of women.
First is the theory that woman is inferior to man
and that since she is the "negative" of man's masculine
nature, she cannot develop her humanity to the fullest
extent without fusion with...
This study examined the validity of the WA PPA process which was developed to assess teacher candidates for licensing purposes. Three validities were investigated using Messick’s view. Content validity was addressed using the raters’ judgment to
establish alignment between the WAC standards and the INTASC. Evidential validity refers to the...
The Mount Fubilan Intrusion is part of a geologically young hypabyssal stock in the Star Mountains of Papua New Guinea. This stock was mapped as the Ok Tedi Intrusive Complex and divided into four separate bodies: the Mount Fubilan, Sydney Intrusion, Kalgoorlie, and Ningi Intrusions. Hydrothermal fluids caused alteration of...
