The title compound forms as biphasic single crystals containing the α- and β-polymorphs. The structure of both polymorphs was solved and refined from single crystal X-ray data in a simultaneous refinement. The structures consist of rods of composition Sb3O4 separated by isolated iodine ions. The two phases differ only in the next nearest neighbour arrangement. The orthorhombic α-phase crystallizes

In situ structural and chemical state characterization of Rh/CeO 2 and Ni/CeO 2 catalysts during atmospheric pre

In cold/arid agricultural regions seasonal freezing/thawing of soils can result in soil salinization in winter; therefore, it is crucial to understand the mechanisms behind soil salinization during winter for better water management in agriculture. In Hetao Irrigation District of Inner Mongolia, northern China, we used the CoupModel (version 5) considering dynamical impacts of salt on soil freezin

The isolation, identification and structure of the spalt gene is described. This novel homeotic gene of Drosophila is required for the establishment of the posterior-most head and the anterior-most tail segments of the embryo. It encodes a small mRNA of 0.8 kb which is under the control of over 15 kb of upstream sequences as indicated by the phenotype of transformed embryos. The putative spalt pro

Background We have designed one-tube 14-antibody 10-color flow cytometry (FCM) panel that would provide maximum information on lymphoid and myeloid cell subsets in bone marrow aspirates (BMA) from patients with cytopenia(s). Samples and Methods BMA from 8 normal donors, from 286 non-malignant hospital controls, 92 myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS), 47 myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN), and from 14

In order to generate monoclonal antibodies (MAb) directed against the low molecular weight glycoprotein alpha 1-microglobulin, a BALB/c mouse was immunized with a mixture of human, guinea pig, rat and rabbit alpha 1-microglobulin homologues (multi-species immunization) and boosted several times. On day 194, the mouse splenocytes were fused to SP2/0 myeloma cells. The resulting hybridomas were scre

The newly described immunoglobulin G-binding streptococcal surface protein, protein G, was used to prepare and characterize rabbit antibodies. The antibodies were directed against rat hormone-sensitive lipase, the rate-limiting enzyme in the hydrolysis of the triacylglycerols stored in adipose tissue. Antiserum was obtained after two injections with 20 micrograms enzyme protein, and the immunoglob

Over the past decade, countries have strived to develop a global governance structure to halt deforestation and forest degradation, by achieving the readiness requirements for Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and forest Degradation (REDD+). Nonetheless, deforestation continues, and seemingly intact forest areas are being degraded. Furthermore, REDD+ may fail to consider the crucial ecosystem

Laminin is a well-defined component of the airway basement membrane (BM). Efficient binding of laminin via multiple interactions is important for nontypeable Haemophilusinfluenzae (NTHi) colonization in the airway mucosa. Here we identified elongation factor thermo-unstable (EF-Tu), L-lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), Protein D and peptidoglycan-associated lipoprotein P6 as novel laminin-binding protei

A biological bank has been developed to extend the biochemical and molecular research base for a prospective study on diet and cancer in the city of Malmo, Sweden. The study entered individuals 45-69 years of age, of which 30,382 individuals (45%) participated. Each individual entering the bank has stored samples of viable mononuclear leukocytes (MNLs; -140°C) and granulocytes (GRANs; -80°C) or bu
