13. WEATHER-RELATED GEO-HAZARD ASSESSMENT MODEL FOR RAILWAY EMBANKMENT STABILITY
The primary objective of this thesis is to develop a model for quantification of weather-related railway embankments hazards. The model for quantification of embankment hazards constitutes an essential component of a decision support system that is required for the management of railway embankment hazards. A model for the deterministic and probabilistic asse

14. Utilização do colon transverso para realização de derivação urinaria continente : estudo experimental comparando duas tecnicas
Radiation therapy is an important method to treat cases ofpelvic ma1iV lantneoplasia. The inconveniences of this technique are actinic cystitis and urinary fistu1aewhich can make impossible the use of the bladder as a reservoir. Severa! techniques for carrying out heterotopic urinary direction have been descnbed in the literature. The aim in this study was t

15. Resource Utilization in Clubfoot Management
Both private and socialized healthcare systems require treatments to be not only effective, but also cost-efficient. Although the Ponseti method of clubfoot treatment is effective, its cost-effectiveness has not been demonstrated. We compared the difference in resource use between two prospective cohorts treated for clubfoot by either the Ponseti method or b

16. Tenax-GC Extraction Technique for Residual Polychlorinated Biphenyl and Polyaromatic Hydrocarbon Analysis in Biodegradation Assays
A rapid Tenax-GC extraction technique has been evaluated for use in conjunction with aqueous biodegradation assays for polyaromatic hydrocarbons and polychlorinated biphenyls. The method was quantitatively efficient and reproducible for phenanthrene, but variable and not quantitative for Aroclor 1254 (polychlorinated biphenyls). Aqueous sample volumes and va

17. Quantitative Assessment of Factors Affecting the Recovery of Indigenous and Released Thermophilic Bacteria from Compost
Thermophilic actinomycetes and bacilli were recovered from mushroom compost by conventional dilution plating and sedimentation chamber-Andersen sampler methods. Excessive growth of thermophilic bacilli on dilution plates accounted for the poor recovery and limited diversity of actinomycete colonies, and this result was largely unaffected by the use of modifi

18. Assessment of clone identity and sequence fidelity for 1189 IMAGE cDNA clones
This report documents the error rate in a commercially distributed subset of the IMAGE Consortium mouse cDNA clone collection. After isolation of plasmid DNA from 1189 bacterial stock cultures, only 62.2% were uncontaminated and contained cDNA inserts that had significant sequence identity to published data for the ordered clones. An agarose gel electro

19. Improved medium for recovery and enumeration of the farmer's lung organism, Saccharomonospora viridis.
A new medium, which we propose to call R8, was developed for the isolation and enumeration of the thermophilic actinomycete, Saccharomonospora viridis. This organism has been implicated in a range of hypersensitivity pneumonitides, including farmer's lung, but is generally isolated in small numbers from contaminated environments. Recovery of S. viridis from

20. Scoring system to identify men at high risk of stroke: a strategy for general practice.
BACKGROUND--The major risk factors for stroke are well described and there is good evidence that the risks associated with hypertension and cigarette smoking are reversible by appropriate interventions. However, if disease prevention measures are to be efficient, it is important that a system which can identify individuals at high risk of stroke be available

21. A high-efficiency cloning system for single hapten-specific B lymphocytes that is suitable for assay of putative growth and differentiation factors.
Fluorescein (FLU)-specific murine splenic B lymphocytes from nonimmunized adult mice were prepared by the hapten-gelatin fractionation technique and cultured singly or in very small numbers in 10-microliters culture wells. Growth and differentiation to antibody-secreting status were promoted by polymeric FLU-conjugated antigens with or without added T-lympho
