Peptide phosphorodiamidate morpholino oligomers (PPMO) are synthetic DNA mimics that bind complementary RNA and inhibit bacterial gene expression. (RFF)₃RXB- AcpP PPMO (R, arginine; F, phenylalanine; X, 6-aminohexanoic acid; B, β-alanine) is complementary to 11 bases of the essential gene acpP (encodes acyl carrier protein). The MIC of (RFF)₃RXB-AcpP was 2.5...

The complete genome of snakehead rhabdovirus (SHRV) was cloned and
molecularly characterized. This was initially accomplished through the sequence
determination of its glycoprotein gene and the phylogenetic analysis of this gene with
orthologous genes from other rhabdoviruses. The phylogenetic analysis revealed that
SHRV groups with viruses of the genus Novirhabdovirus....
Two experiments were conducted to determine the effect of various levels of vitamin E on egg yolk. A diet of corn-flax-soybean meal was fed to layers and α-tocopherol content in eggs, egg production, and egg quality were evaluated. In experiment 2, vitamin E toxicity was also determined. In experiment 1,...
The objective of this study was to identify usage of foodservice performance
measures, important activities in foodservice benchmarking, and benchmarking
attitudes, beliefs, and practices by foodservice directors. The design of this study
included two parts: (1) eleven expert panelists involved in a Delphi technique to
identify and rate importance of...
This paper is devoted to the study of families of tangent lines
to curves in Euclidean three dimensional space by the medium of a
particular representation for lines.
First, a ring of elements called dual numbers is described,
and a vector space over this ring, whose elements are called dual...
One of a series of Chesapeake Outflow Plume Experiments, COPE-2, was conducted in May 1997 along the coast of Virginia/North Carolina. The objective of this experiment was to describe the coastal buoyancy jet formed by the outflow of water from Chesapeake Bay, its dispersion into midshelf, and the optical property...
4-H advancement programs consist of a series of steps that provide a framework for progressive learning within a specific project area. Advancement programs encourage 4-H members to learn at their own speed based on their interests and abilities. Advancement programs are self-paced, and age- and skill-level appropriate. Advancement programs can...
