Pulmonary sequestration is defined as a nonfunctioning mass composed of dysplastic lung parenchyma, embryologically detached 2m from the tracheobronchial tree and receiving its own blood supply from a systemic artery, usually the thoracic or abdominal aorta.It may be intralobar or extralobar depending on the presence of an independent pleural envel
Recent studies have documented the presence 2m of Niemann-Pick C1-Like 1 (NPC1L1) in the small intestine and its capacity to transport cholesterol in mice and rats.The current investigation was undertaken to explore the localization and function of NPC1L1 in human enterocytes.Cell fractionation experiments revealed an NPC1L1 association with apical
We study the (Delta,D) and (Delta,N) problems for double-step digraphs considering the unilateral distance, which is the minimum between the distance in the digraph and the distance in its converse digraph, obtained by changing the directions of all the arcs.The first problem consists of maximizing the number of vertices N of a digraph, given the m
The quality and survival rate are still being the problem that hampers the productivity of black tiger shrimp, Penaeus monodon culture.Impaired quality of larval shrimp and environmental conditions can confer shrimp be infected by diseases, including viruses such as white spot syndrome virus (WSSV).Prevention of disease infection using chemicals ca
