Atmospheric acidity measurements on allegheny mountain and the origins of ambient acidity in the Northeastern United States
(Elsevier, 1989)
Atmospheric acidity as HNO3(g), SO2(g), and aerosol H+ was measured on Allegheny Mountain and Laurel Hill in southwest Pennsylvania in August 1983. The aerosol H+ appeared to represent the net after H2SO4 reaction with ...
Chronic ethanol consumption depresses hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal function in aged rats
(Elsevier, 1991)
In separate experiments, nine (n=20) and fifteen (n=12) month old rats were treated with either 6% ethanol or 12% sucrose (to balance caloric intake) in the drinking water to examine the effect of chronic ethanol consumption ...
Lod scores for gene mapping in the presence of marker map uncertainty
(John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 2001-07)
Multipoint lod scores are typically calculated for a grid of locus positions, moving the putative disease locus across a fixed map of genetic markers. Changing the order of a set of markers and/or the distances between the ...
Regional trace element and sulfate transport
(Elsevier, 1994-05)
The goal of this paper was to investigate the transport of atmospheric sulfate and trace elements across the northeastern U.S.A. Data from a number of sites--Underhill (VT), Whiteface Mountain (NY), Mayville (NY), Laurel ...
Kinetics of heat inactivation of phenyl valerate hydrolases from hen and rat brain
(Elsevier, 1987-10-01)
Heat inactivation was studied at 45, 50, 55, and 60[deg] for all of the phenyl valerate hydrolases (PVase), including neurotoxic esterase (NTE) and inhibitor-resistant esterase (IRE), in homogenates of hen or rat brain or ...
Assessment of sex-specific genetic and environmental effects on bone mineral density
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 2004-09)
Although it is widely accepted that genes contribute significantly to the variation in bone mineral density (BMD), the nature of the genetic contribution is poorly defined. There are large gender differences in BMD, although ...
Balanced centralized and distributed database design in a clinical research environment
(John Wiley & Sons, Ltd., 2000-06-15)
Clinical research databases can meet both research and clinical needs, but this ideal is seldom achieved. Priorities often differ for those who collect and ultimately use the data and those who develop data systems. ...
L-threonine dehydrogenase of Escherichia coli K-12
(Elsevier, 1978-11-14)
SummaryA rapid method for purifying L-threonine dehydrogenase from Escherichia coli K-12 cells, grown on a medium containing L-threonine as carbon source, has been developed. The procedure consists of three fractionation ...
An evaluation of the replicate pool method: quick estimation of genome-wide linkage peak p -values
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 2006-05)
The calculation of empirical p -values for genome-wide non-parametric linkage tests continues to present significant computational challenges for many complex disease mapping studies. The gold standard approach is to use ...
