摘要:
A system and method are provided for determining a fetal heart rate from ultrasound imaging data in near real-time. The heart rate is determined by analyzing spatial points on ultrasound cardiac volumes and calculating the peak spectral frequency of the changes in ultrasonic characteristics of the spatial points.

The invention provides methods and compositions for the production of transgenic plants, plant cells, embryos, and seeds that produce plants with floral organs that have increased mass and/or size as compared to wild-type plants.
摘要:
Methods for mediating immune coagulation using novel antibodies and compounds are described. A protein Fgl2 having direct prothrombinase activity has been identified. Inhibitors of Fgl2 are useful in preventing and treating diseases which require a reduction in immune coagulation including bacterial and viral infections, allograft and xenograft rejection, glomerulonephritis, cancer, a number of gastrointestinal diseases and fetal loss.

摘要:
Compounds of Formula I including all geometric and stereoisomers, N-oxides, and agriculturally suitable salts thereof, are disclosed which are useful as invertebrate pest control agents, (I) wherein A, B, J, K, L and R3 are as defined in the disclosure. Also disclosed are compositions for controlling an invertebrate pest comprising a biologically effective amount of a compound of Formula I an N-oxide thereof or a suitable salt thereof and at least one additional component selected from the group consisting of surfactants, solid diluents and liquid diluents. Also disclosed are methods for controlling an invertebrate pest comprising contacting the invertebrate pest or its environment with a biologically effective amount of a compound of Formula I, its N-oxide or a suitable salt of the compound (e.g., as a composition described herein).
摘要:
A system for routing and tracking deliverables, the system including a flexible label having a flexible transponder associated therewith or formed therein for association with a respective deliverable, at least one transceiver configured to communicate with the transceivers to receive control signals; and a routing device coupled to the transceiver and configured to route and sort deliverables in response to control signals received at the transceiver from the transponder.
摘要:
Disclosed is a device and methods for the rapid chemiluminescence assay of surfaces to detect the presence of microbial contamination. The device and methods are suitable for use by untrained personnel under the relatively harsh and variable conditions found in the field, for example in fast food restaurants and other food preparation areas. The chemiluminescence reaction that is the source of the analytical signal in the disclosed assay device and method is preferably based on a luciferase/luciferin system.
摘要:
The invention is directed to 3-β-D-ribofuranosylthiazolo[4,5-d]pyridimine nucleosides and pharmaceutical compositions containing such compounds that have immunomodulatory activity. The invention is also directed to the therapeutic or prophylactic use of such compounds and compositions, and to methods of treating diseases and disorders described herein, by administering effective amounts of such compounds.
摘要:
Compounds of Formula I, including all geometric and stereoisomers, N-oxides, and agriculturally suitable salts thereof: (Formula I); wherein X and either Y or Z are a linking chain 3 or 4 atoms in length attached to contiguous carbon atoms and are taken together with said carbon atoms to form a fused phenyl ring, a fused 5- or 6-membered nonaromatic carbocyclic or heterocyclic ring optionally including one or two ring members selected from the group consisting of C(═O), SO or S(O)2, or a fused 5- or 6-membered heteroaromatic ring, each fused ring optionally substituted with one to three substituents independently selected from R7; and R1, R2, R5, R6R7, m and p are as defined in the disclosure. Also disclosed are compositions containing the compounds of Formula I and a method for controlling plant diseases caused by fungal plant pathogens that involves applying an effective amount of a compound of Formula I.
