INTERSPECIFIC VARIATION OF SCENT CHARACTERISTICS IN THE CYCLAMEN GENUS AND THE UTILITY OF THE VARIATION



Modulation of the virus-receptor interaction by mutations in the V5 loop of feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) following in vivo escape from neutralising antibody

Abstract Background In the acute phase of infection with feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV), the virus targets activated CD4+ T cells by utilising CD134 (OX40) as a primary attachment receptor and CXCR4 as a co-receptor.The nature of the virus-receptor interaction varies between isolates; strains such as GL8 and CPGammer recognise a "complex" dete

Effects of reflector, surface treatment, and length of scintillation crystal on the performance of TOF-DOI PET detector with dual-ended readout

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of the reflector, surface treatment, and length of scintillation crystals on the performance of a time-of-flight and depth-of-interaction (TOF-DOI) PET detector with a dual-ended readout and to determine the best reflector and surface treatment.Various types of crystal arrays with three differ
