Older female rape victims usually live alone, are raped by strangers, experience physical force and injury, and also are robbed. Rape trauma syndrome, a nursing diagnosis, consists of an acute phase o…
This tutorial provides an overview of the evolution of some of the key concepts in the gas-phase fragmentation of different classes of peptide ions under various conditions [e.g. collision-induced dis…
The unique optical properties of free-base meso-tris(5-methylthien-2-yl)corrole were compared to those of the widely investigated meso-triphenyl-substituted analogue. A combination of spectroscopic an…
Comparisons are made between some traditional numerical integrators and integration using "Adomian" power series solutions to the ordinary differential equations. These are initial investigations to d…
A system consisting of two columns with different separation mechanisms may be used for forensic chemical gas chromatographic analysis of glycols and their ethers: (1) with a polar immobile phase and …
This study evaluated relations between exposure to 1,3-butadiene (BD), styrene (STY) and dimethyldithiocarbamate (DMDTC) and mortality from leukemia among synthetic rubber industry workers. Subjects w…
Epipedobates flavopictus, Dendrobatidae, is a small aposematic frog found in Brazilian Cerrado bioma. In the present work, we isolated and characterized chemically the most abundant alkaloids present …
BACKGROUND: Maldescended testes or cryptorchidism is a genital birth defect that affects 2-9% of all male new-borns. Over the last 40 years there have been reports of increased prevalence in countries…
Mammals possess multiple, closely linked beta-globin genes that differ in the timing of their expression during development. These genes have been thought to be derived from a single ancestral gene, b…
Degradation of atrazine herbicide in humic substances (HS) aqueous solutions and distilled water solutions was investigated on a laboratory scale upon gamma-irradiation from a (60)Co source. In additi…
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Unrelated plants pollinated by the same group or guild of animals typically evolve similar floral cues due to pollinator-mediated selection. Related plant species, however, may po…
In this work, a three-dimension grapnene-PbO2 (3DG-PbO2) composite anode was prepared using coelectrodeposition technology for electrocatalytic oxidation of perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS). The effec…
The advantages of using homogeneous experimental groups (inbred animal strains) and of using multiple groups within an experiment, based on the power of the Mantel-Haenszel test, were investigated. A …
NMR is a popular and mature technique used in fields as diverse as chemistry, biology, or material science. One reason for this versatility lies in its ability to correlate the nuclei that are present…
Trace eyeblink conditioning is used as a translational model of declarative memory but restricted to the temporal domain. Potential spatial aspects have never been experimentally addressed. We employe…
The proximity of coral reefs to areas of present and future coastal development in Costa Rica highlights the need for assessing environmental conditions important to maintaining healthy corals. In Jan…
PURPOSE: To explore human corneal and conjunctival sensory channels at suprathreshold level.METHODS: Ten healthy human subjects participated in the study. The Belmonte pneumatic esthesiometer was used…
A procedure for the enrichment of aromatic amines via solid-phase extraction was developed. A HR-P phase based on styrene-divinylbenzene was used for the investigations, generally followed by derivati…
The present study analyzed 42 organic solvent extracts of scent mark pools from five dominant female common marmosets by gas chromatography (GC) and combined GC and mass spectrometry. We determined wh…
An analytical procedure specific for chlorinated benzo-1,2-quinones has been developed to examine the stability of these compounds under conditions used for investigating their toxicity to aquatic org…
