The performance of a new, single-chip linear optical amplifier (LOA) is compared to a semiconductor optical amplifier and an EDFA. Bit-error-rate measurements of the LOA show no power penalty in a 10… (More)
Cell differentiation is generally tightly coordinated with the cell cycle, typically resulting in a nondividing cell with a unique differentiated morphology. The unicellular trichomes of Arabidopsis… (More)
Infant killing by primates is highly controversial. Sexual selection of infanticidal males has been disputed, especially for seasonally breeding species, in which death of an infant does not advance… (More)
Kidney biopsies from 15 type-1 (insulin-dependent) diabetic patients with a range of albumin excretion (AER) were analyzed. Nine patients had normal AER, and six had microalbuminuria. Basement… (More)
Type 1 insulin-dependent, diabetes mellitus (Type 1 DM) is thought to be more prevalent in individuals with Down's syndrome. To ascertain the local prevalence of Type 1 DM in patients with Down's… (More)
The development of congestive heart failure (CHF) is associated with left ventricular (LV) dilation and myocardial remodeling. However, fundamental mechanisms that contribute to this remodeling… (More)
Studies are described in which ethyl benzene (EB) was tested to determine its acute toxicity to three marine organisms, Atlantic silversides (Menidia menidia), mysid shrimp (Mysidopsis bahia), and… (More)
Trichome development in Arabidopsis thaliana is a well-characterized model for the study of plant cell differentiation. Two genes that play an essential role in the initiation of trichome development… (More)
