A Trematode Parasite Infecting the Skin of Rana ridibunda Complex (Sensu Lato) from Dalaman (Mugla, Turkey)
(TAYLOR & FRANCIS INC, 2010)
We examined the structure of the black spots on the ventral surface of Rana ridibunda specimens, which were collected from the west Anatolia region of Turkey, and a multi-cellular parasite was discovered under these spots ...
The effect of the sampling strategies on the landslide susceptibility mapping by conditional probability and artificial neural networks
(SPRINGER, 2010)
This study presented herein compares the effect of the sampling strategies by means of landslide inventory on the landslide susceptibility mapping. The conditional probability (CP) and artificial neural networks (ANN) ...
Investigation of Relaxant Effects of New Agents Affecting Nitric Oxide/Cyclic Guanosine Monophosphate Pathway on Sheep Oddi Sphincter
(LIPPINCOTT WILLIAMS & WILKINS, 2010)
Objectives: Nitric oxide (NO) is a potent nonadrenergic, noncholinergic mediator of gastrointestinal smooth muscle. We aimed to investigate the effects of new NO/cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) pathway-affecting ...
Effects of long-term non-invasive home mechanical ventilation on chronic respiratory failure
(TAYLOR & FRANCIS LTD, 2010)
Objective: Chronic respiratory failure (CRF) is a syndrome defined by certain disturbances in arterial blood gases. Non-invasive mechanical ventilation (NIMV) is an increasingly used treatment modality in respiratory ...
STUDY ON POLYMORPHISM AND ACTIVITIES OF GSTM1 AND CYP1A1 GENES IN CONNECTION WITH VARIOUS CANCER TYPES IN TURKEY POPULATION
(TAYLOR & FRANCIS LTD, 2010)
The metabolism of drugs and chemical carcinogens involves a variety of isoenzymes such as members of the Cytochrome P450 (CYP) and Glutathione S-transferase (GSTs) families, with polymorphisms described in these genes ...
Computational study of the intramolecular proton transfer reactions of 3-hydroxytropolone (2,7-dihydroxycyclohepta-2,4,6-trien-1-one) and its dimers
(SPRINGER, 2010)
The proton transfer reaction and dimerization processes of 3-hydroxytropolone (3-OHTRN) have been investigated using density functional theory (DFT) at the B3LYP/6-31+G** level. The influence of the solvent on the proton ...
Effect of Inbreeding Depression on Growth and Fluctuating Asymmetry in Turkish Young Males
(WILEY-BLACKWELL, 2010)
This study sought to examine the effects of inbreeding on physical development and fluctuating asymmetry (FA). A total 144 male high-school students (mean age = 18.11 +/- 0.52) whose parents are first cousins (F = 0.125) ...
Groundwater changes in relation to seismic activity: a case study from Eskipazar (Karabuk, Turkey)
(SPRINGER, 2010)
The reported study contributes to research on earthquake prediction. Between 2007 and 2009, changes were observed in two geothermal and mineral springs located in Eskipazar (similar to 3-5 km to the north of the North ...
Poly(acrylamide/maleic acid)-sepiolite composite hydrogels for immobilization of invertase
(SPRINGER, 2010)
Poly(acrylamide/maleic acid) and sepiolite (PAMS) composite hydrogel was prepared and used for the immobilization of invertase. In FTIR analysis, the characteristic bands of composite such as -OH, -COOH, Si-OH show the ...
AXIN2 polymorphism and its association with astrocytoma in a Turkish population
(SPANDIDOS PUBL LTD, 2010)
The product of AXIN2, a component of Writ signalling, plays a role in tumorigenesis and is dysregulated in cancer cells. In order to determine whether the AXIN2 polymorphism is a risk factor for astrocytoma, we analysed ...
