Pactamycin, a complex aminocyclitol compound produced by Streptomyces pactum, has significant antibiotic, antitumor, and antiplasmodial activity. However, this natural product has not been developed for clinical use due to its high cytotoxicity. Modulation of its biological properties by chemical synthesis has been difficult due to its complex chemical structure. Therefore,...

Chitosan based hemorrhage control dressings provide effective external hemorrhage control while having few side effects. Known residual contaminants present in chitosan formulations include endotoxins and proteins known to stimulate gene expression in the liver. This study investigated gene expression in the liver using rat bio-compatibility models to gain knowledge regarding...

The Horseshoe Gulch area includes 16 square miles in the
Eastern Paleozoic Belt of the Klamath Mountains geologic province
north of Callahan, California. Fossiliferous Late Ordovician and
Silurian limestones and unfossiliferous greywackes, arkoses, shales,
mudstones, schists, and phyllites, and other terrigenous clastic
rocks are exposed in a broad fault zone...

AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF
TED ANDREW
Here, we describe and demonstrate a geographic information systems-based lithic morphometric research (GLiMR) software approach. GLiMR accurately and rapidly handles a sequence of ArcGIS procedures to extract geometric morphometric data from 2D and 3D scan files of lithic artifacts. GLiMR generates three main types of geometric properties: shape data, topographic...

The intrusion-related Cerro Negro Norte Fe-oxide (Cu-Au) deposit is hosted in andesites and diorites of the early to middle Cretaceous Coastal Cordilleran arc of northern Chile. Tabular and irregularly shaped magnetite orebodies are localized on splays and fractures of the regional NINE striking Atacama Fault Zone. Production from this district...

The Duzel Rock area includes four square miles in the eastern
Paleozoic subprovince of the Klamath Mountains southeast of Fort
Jones, California. The structurally complex terraine is composed
of Silurian graywacke, post-Silurian phyllite, limestone and basalt
associations, and minor andesitic intrusive rocks.
Three groups of sedimentary and extrusive rocks have...
