Ocular infection by HSV-1 strain McKrae is neurovirulent in both mice and rabbits and causes fatal encephalitis in approximately 50% of animals. In addition, it spontaneously reactivates with high frequency relative to other HSV-1 strains in rabbits. We sequenced the McKrae strain genome and compared its coding protein sequences with...
A non-linear, parabolic type, mathematical model is presented, simulating the movement of an organophosphate insecticide, Vapona, in plasticized polyvinyl chloride (PVC). The molecular transport of diffusant in the polymer matrix and its subsequent desorption from the surface have been characterized in terms of the integral rate coefficient for diffusion and...
