Chow and Liu showed that the maximum likelihood tree for multivariate discrete distributions may be found using a maximum
weight spanning tree algorithm, for example Kruskal's algorithm. The efficiency of the algorithm makes it tractable for high-dimensional
problems. 相似文献
Scopulariopsis brumptii was isolated from nail lesions in left hand of a 42 year-old-farmer. The direct microscopic examination of the nail samples revealed light brown, septate, branched fungal hyphae along with thick-walled spherical cells. The histopathological examination showed involvement of internal phase of the nail plate. Amongst the antimycotics tested against S. brumptii In vitro oxiconazole was found to be the most active with MIC value of 10 g/ml–1. This report documents the first instance of onychomycosis caused by S. brumptii.相似文献
1. 1.|Changes in tissue metabolite concentrations and enzyme activities in the pedipalpal (PM) and heart (HM) muscles of the tropical scorpion Heterometrus fulvipes show that the metabolism in PM and HM is fundamentally reorganized following low (18°C) and high (38°C) temperature acclimation.
2. 2.|Changes in metabolite concentrations show that metabolite biosynthesis showed increases after cold acclimation but decreases after warm acclimation.
3. 3.|Similarly, changes in enzyme activities show a preponderance of glycolysis and HMP shunt activity after cold acclimation, while after warm acclimation glycogenolysis, oxidative metabolism and gluconeogenesis predominated.
4. 4.|Higher metabolite concentrations and enzyme activities both before and after thermal acclimation in HM reflect its greater compensatory abilities.
Male albino rats were treated with insulin for one week (acute) and four weeks (chronic). The lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activity, lactate and pyruvate levels were estimated in the tissues of experimental and control animals. LDH activity decreased in all the tissues of acute- and chronic treated animals whereas the lactate content is elevated. Pyruvate content also showed increment except in heart and pancreas with reference to acute treatment where it is decreased. The hyperinsulinaemia effect in relation to lacticacidaemia and its influence on energy demand and ammonia secretion is discussed. 相似文献
An extracellular protease, which previously has been found to correlate with the appearance of bleblike evaginations on the cell wall of Pseudomonas fragi ATCC 4973, was purified 38-fold by ammonium sulfate precipitation and Sephadex chromatography to yield a single band by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Polyclonal rabbit antiserum raised against the purified enzyme had an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay titer of 4 X 10(7). The peroxidase antiperoxidase method was used to localize the neutral protease in P. fragi at the ultrastructural level. Electron microscopy of cell sections of this organism revealed that high concentrations of positive immunoperoxidase reaction product were located near the cell wall, whereas control sections stained with preimmune or heterologous serum did not show similar deposits to be present. These results are consistent with the hypothesis that blebs appearing on P. fragi contain high concentrations of neutral protease. 相似文献

Summary A systematic account of 81 species of free living ciliophora found living in dirty water of gutters, ditches, wells, tanks etc. belonging to 31 families of Euciliata and Suctoria is given in this paper. It includes 30 new records for the Indian sub-continent and 37 new records for the Southern region. 相似文献
Out of the total 68 S. aureus strains isolated and studied from pyoderma patients, 33 (48.5%) strains produced enterotoxin. Isolates from IED, impetigo and folliculitis exhibited high degree of enterotoxigenicity. SE-C and its combinations with other enterotoxins was common. 60.6% of the SE producers were found phage nontypable. Typable enterotoxigenic strains were associated with III, IV and mixed phage groups. S. aureus var. hominis and S. aureus var. bovis are the prevalent subspecies types and potent SE producers among pyogenic skin infections. 相似文献
Net photosynthetic rate (PN), ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase (RuBPC) activity, chlorophyll (Chl) content and biomass production were estimated at monthly intervals inChukrasia tabularis, Dolichandrone atrovirens, Eugenia jambolana, Gmelina arborea, Lannea coromandelica, Terminalia arjuna andTerminalia bellerica from September 1990 to August 1991. The leaves of all the seven tree species showed significantly higher PN during summer than in winter and these rates differed from one species to the other. A positive correlation was found between PN of different tree species and their Chl content or biomass production. There was no significant correlation between ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase activity and PN when these were expressed on leaf area basis. 相似文献
Mg2 + dependent —adenosine triphosphatase activity has been studied in the muscle, brain, kidney and liver tissues of frog,Rana hexadactyla (Lesson) after sciatectomy and induced chronic ammonia stress. The enzyme activity decreased in the tissues of the denervated
frog. The activity of the enzyme increased in all the tissues of the normal and denervated frogs except in the denervated
muscle when ammonium lactate was infused intraperitoneally. 相似文献
