To address the complex interactions between humans and wildlife habitat, we developed a conceptual framework that links human factors with forested landscapes and wildlife habitat. All the components… (More)
We present a new formulation of the incompressible Navier-Stokes equation in terms of an auxiliary field that differs from the velocity by a gauge transformation. The gauge freedom allows us to… (More)
A pot trial was conducted with 52 rice cultivars of different types collected from different origins. The results showed that there were great differences in Cd concentrations in straw, brown rice… (More)
The abundance and distribution of natural populations can be strongly influenced by the types and arrangement of habitat patches within a landscape. The impact of landscape changes on population… (More)

This paper presents a method for the precise, accurate and efficient quantification of brain tumor (glioblastomas) via MRI that can be used routinely in the clinic. Tumor volume is considered useful… (More)
IL-12 is a principal activator of both innate and adaptive immunity against infectious agents and malignancies. Regulation of proinflammatory IL-12 gene expression in phagocytes by the… (More)
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE
Reproducible measurements of brain tumor volume are helpful in evaluating the response to therapy and the need for changing treatment plans. Our purpose was to adapt the… (More)
The Period 2 (Per2) gene is a key molecular component in controlling mammalian circadian rhythms at the levels of gene expression, physiology, and pathogenesis. Although many immune parameters, such… (More)
Five reciprocal active site mutants of P450 1A1 and 1A2 and an additional mutant, Val/Leu-382 --> Ala, were constructed, expressed in Escherichia coli, and purified by Ni-NTA affinity chromatography.… (More)
