Linking marine epizootics to a specific aetiology is notoriously difficult. Recent diagnostic successes show that marine disease diagnosis requires both modern, cutting-edge technology (e.g. metagenomics, quantitative realtime PCR) and more classic methods (e.g. transect surveys, histopathology and cell culture). Here, we discuss how this combination of traditional and modern approaches...
Current evidence suggests that temporal regulation of gene
expression in eucaryotic organisms relies primarily upon localized
structural modifications of chromatin. One possible means of
changing chromatin structure is through varying the level of
acetylation of the histone proteins. Sodium butyrate has been found
to inhibit the activity of histone deacetylase...
Controversy regarding moral development research has given rise to a proliferation of theories competing for acceptance. For all these researchers, the work of Lawrence Kohlberg is the pivot point for comparisons, contrasts, and discussions. Still, no theories to date adequately describe and document a theoretically complete conception of moral judgment...
In this research, the interfacial behavior of Trichoderma reesei CBHI and Thermomonospora fusca E₅ cellulases were studied at synthetic surfaces. For this purpose, colloidal silica and polystyrene particles were used to prepare cellulase-particle suspensions that were analyzed by several solution-phase techniques. These included circular dichroism spectroscopy, size exclusion chromatography and...
A concept image is that collection of all images, pictures, symbols, definitions
and properties associated with any given mathematical concept. One of the
most important components in the mental representation of concepts in the concept
image of advanced mathematical thinkers is visualization. This component, in
turn, is indispensable in the...

Of the four main types of lettuce, three are easy to grow: looseleaf, butterhead (Bibb), and romaine (cos). The fourth kind, called crisphead or iceberg lettuce, demands slightly more exacting climatic and cultural conditions.
The purpose of this project is to paint a picture of the state of Oregon’s Skilled Nursing Facilities for the 2015 state fiscal year. Skilled Nursing Facilities are an important part of Oregon’s Long Term care continuum that provides care to individuals needing post-acute or on-going care. The URAP student...
Zinc (Zn) deficiency is a problem world-wide. Current methods for assessing Zn status are limited to measuring plasma or serum Zn within populations suspected of deficiency. Despite the high prevalence of Zn deficiency in the human population there are no methods currently available for sensitively assessing Zn status among individuals....
