Application of remote sensing (RS) and geographical information system (GIS) techniques has been increased in natural sciences. In fact, it is inevitable applying of these techniques in vegetation studies due to the existence of some problems in traditional methods (e.g. sampling, calculation, analysis and so on). On this scope, scientists must have sufficient information about the efficiency of these techniques as a useful tool in their studies. This study aims to evaluate the IRS-P6 LISS III and Landsat ETM+ efficiency in plant groups’ identification. In order to this purpose, 143 training samples were collected from areas that showed homogenous composition of plant species in at least area of 3600 m2 (60 × 60 m). Coordinates of these training samples were recorded using a GPS device and transferred to a GIS database. Also, ENVI 4.2 package has used to process and analyze the satellites data. Several methods of processing such as; spectral separability, supervised classification and assessment of classification accuracy were used in order to gain a satisfy evaluation of the data efficiency. The results indicated that net farming of alfalfa and Juniperus polycarpus–Artemisia kopetdaghensisi community have the most separability on the satellite images (1.99 for Landsat and 2 for IRS). Against, the least separabilities on the Landsat data were between Ju. polycarpus–Onobrychis cornuta and Ju. polycarpus–Ar. kopetdaghensis communities (1.57) and between Ju. polycarpus–Ar. kopetdaghensis and Ju. polycarpus–Agropyron intermedium (1.53) on the IRS data. According to these results, it is concluded that the satellite data are somedeal able to identify plant groups when vegetation communities are sufficiently homogenous, abundant and spectrally and ecologically separable. 相似文献

Background
As a routine method for stepping source simulation, a Monte Carlo program is run according to the number of steps and then the summation of dose from each run is taken to obtain total dose distribution. This method is time consuming.Aim
As an alternative method, a matrix shift based technique was applied to simulate a stepping source for brachytherapy.Materials and methods
The stepping source of GZP6 brachytherapy unit was simulated. In a matrix shift method, it is assumed that a radiation source is stationary and instead the data matrix is shifted based on the number of steps. In this study, by running MCNPX program for one point and calculation of the dose matrix using the matrix shift method, the isodose curves for the esophageal cancer tumor lengths of 4 and 6 cm were obtained and compared with the isodose curves obtained by running MCNPX programs in each step position separately (15 and 23 steps for esophageal cancer tumor lengths of 4 and 6 cm, respectively).Results
The difference between the two dose matrixes for the stepping and matrix shift methods based on the average dose differences are 3.85 × 10−4 Gy and 5.19 × 10−4 Gy for treatment length of 4 cm and 6 cm, respectively. Dose differences are insignificant and these two methods are equally valid.Conclusions
The matrix shift method presented in this study can be used for calculation of dose distribution for a brachytherapy stepping source as a quicker tool compared to other routine Monte Carlo based methods. 相似文献73.
In biotechnology, extraction by means of aqueous biphasic systems (ABS) is known as a promising tool for the recovery and purification of bio‐molecules. Over the past decade, the increasing emphasis on cleaner and environmentally benign extraction procedures has led to enhanced interest in the ABS containing ionic liquids (ILs)—a new class of non‐volatile alternative solvents. ABS composed of the hydrophilic IL {1‐butyl‐3‐methylimidazolium bromide ([C4mim]Br)} and potassium citrate—which is easily degraded—represents a clean media to green separation of bio‐molecules. In this regard, here, the extraction capability of this ABS was evaluated through its application to the extraction of some amino acids. To gain an insight into the driving forces of amino acid partitioning in the studied IL ‐based ABS, the distribution of five model amino acids (L ‐tryptophan, L ‐phenylalanine, L ‐tyrosine, L ‐leucine, and L ‐valine) at different aqueous medium pH values and different phase compositions was investigated. The studies indicated that hydrophobic interactions were the main driving force, although electrostatic interactions and salting‐out effects were also important for the transfer of the amino acids. Moreover, based on the statistical analysis of the driving forces of amino acid partitioning in the studied IL ‐based ABS, a model was established to describe the partition coefficient of three model amino acids, L ‐tryptophan, L ‐phenylalanine, and L ‐valine, and employed to predict the partition coefficient of two other model amino acids, L ‐tyrosine and L ‐leucine. © 2011 American Institute of Chemical Engineers Biotechnol.

The β-cyanoethyl phosphosphoramidite derivatives of 6-methyl- and 6-methoxymethyl-3-(2-deoxy-β-D-ribofuranosyl)-3H-pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidin-2-one have been synthesized. These monomers have been employed for oligodeoxynucleotide synthesis to evaluate their effect on duplex stability and ability to fluorometrically report on hybridization. The structurally conservative 6-methoxymethyl-substitution results in a pyrrolocytidine that is stabilizing toward hybrid formation (Δ Tm = +1.3 °C) whereas the known 6-methylpyrrolocytidine is destabilizing (Δ Tm = ?4.7 °C), in the sequence examined. The 6-methoxymethylpyrrolocytidine retains excellent mismatch discrimination and its fluorescence is selectively quenched when hybridized to a match oligodeoxynucleotide sequence. The quenching of fluorescence for an internal position is approximately three-fold, whereas a terminal position (5′-end or 3′-end) experienced approximately two-fold decrease in the fluorescence intensity. 相似文献

Background:
DNA vaccination with plasmid encoding bacterial, viral, and parasitic immunogens has been shown to be an attractive method to induce efficient immune responses. Bacteria of the genus Brucella are facultative intracellular pathogens for which new and efficient vaccines are needed.Methods:
To evaluate the use of a DNA immunization strategy for protection against brucellosis, a plasmid containing the DNA encoding the Brucella melitensis (B. melitensis) 31 kDa outer membrane protein, as a potent immunogenic target, was constructed.Results:
The constructed plasmid, pcDNA3.1+omp31, was injected intramuscularly into mice and the expression of omp31 RNA was assessed by RT-PCR. The integrity of the pcDNA3.1+omp31 construct was confirmed with restriction analysis and sequencing. Omp31 mRNA expression was verified by RT-PCR.Conclusion:
Our results indicate that the pcDNA3.1+omp31 eukaryotic expression vector expresses omp31 mRNA and could be useful as a vaccine candidate.Key Words: Brucella melitensis, omp31, DNA Vaccine, pcDNA3.1 相似文献76.

The 14-3-3 proteins are important effectors of Ser/Thr phosphorylation in eukaryotic cells. Using mathematical modelling we investigated the roles of these proteins as effectors in signalling pathways that involve multi-phosphorylation events. We defined optimal conditions for positive and negative cross-talk. Particularly, synergistic signal interaction was evident at very different sets of binding affinities and phosphorylation kinetics. We identified three classes of 14-3-3 targets that all have two binding sites, but displayed synergistic interaction between converging signalling pathways for different ranges of parameter values. Consequently, these protein targets will respond differently to interventions that affect 14-3-3 binding affinities or phosphorylation kinetics. 相似文献

The present study was conducted to assess the risks to human health from exposure to arsenic, lead, nickel, zinc, and copper through consumption of wheat, rice, and some vegetables in Isfahan Province, central Iran, using the total non-carcinogenic hazard quotient and cancer risk assessment estimates. Risk contribution from Ni is minimal compared with other metals and it was less than the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency guidelines. The results showed that total non-carcinogenic hazard of As and Pb, were greater than 1, and total cancer risk of As slightly greater than 1 × 10?4 for all age groups. Therefore, the inhabitants who reside in Isfahan Province may experience the adverse health risks via consumption of cereals and vegetables. 相似文献

Electrospinning is a versatile technology for the fabrication of nanofibrous matrixes to regenerate defects. This study aims to develop a functionalized and electroconductive polymeric matrix to improve rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell adhesion, proliferation, and differentiation. Herein, the influence of the chemical composition of the substrate on homogeneous modification of the surface with mussel-inspired polydopamine (PDA) is focused. Accordingly, the deposition of PDA on the surface was proved by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. Morphologies of the scaffolds demonstrated homogeneous decoration of the polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)/polyurethane (PU)-polyaniline (PANI) matrixes with PDA, while a lower density of mussel-inspired polymer was observed in bare PU-PANI constructs. Although uniform and dense precipitation of PDA reduced conductivity of scaffolds 1.2 times compared with the samples with a low density of the PDA, 1.1 and 1.2 times enhancement in tensile strength and Young's modulus, respectively, were the strength of the applied process, especially in bone tissue engineering area. Contact angle measurements demonstrated about two times reduction in measured values, which shows improvement in hydrophilicity of PDA-modified PVA/PU-PANI fibers compared with PDA-coated PU-PANI ones. Swelling ratio and mass loss ratio calculations revealed enhancement in measured values as a function of homogeneous and dense coating, which arise from hydrophilicity of the polymeric substrate. The bioactivity test indicated that a dense layer of PDA strongly supports formations of hydroxyapatite-like crystals. Moreover, homogeneous decoration of conductive matrixes with PDA showed suitable cell viability, adhesion, and spreading while cell-scaffolds interactions improved under electrical stimulation. Higher expression of alkaline phosphatase and secretion of Collagen I under the electrical field proved the applicability of modified electroconductive scaffolds for further preclinical and clinical studies to introduce as a reconstructive bone substitute. 相似文献
