Comparison of different fertilisation media for an in vitro maturation?fertilisation?culture system using flow-cytometrically sorted X chromosome-bearing spermatozoa for bovine embryo production.

Reproduction, fertility, and development

Ferré LB, Bogliotti Y, Chitwood JL, Fresno C, Ortega HH, Kjelland ME, Ross PJ.

Curr Surg. 2002 Mar-Apr;59(2):220-2. doi: 10.1016/s0149-7944(01)00621-3.

PURPOSE: Although several studies have evaluated factors affecting American Board of Surgery In-Training Examination (ABSITE) performance, none has examined the impact of setting a minimally acceptable standard. It was hypothesized that establishing such a criterion would improve ABSITE scores.METHODS:...

Influence of Soybean Cultivar on Reproduction of Heterodera glycines in Monoxenic Culture.

Journal of nematology

J Nematol. 1997 Sep;29(3):389-94.

Nematodes produced in monoxenic culture are used for many research purposes. To maximize the number of Heterodera glycines produced in culture, 24 soybean cultivars (maturity groups 0-8) were evaluated for host suitability. A strain of H. glycines race 3,...

Sterol metabolism in the nematodeCaenorhabditis elegans.

Lipids

PMID: 21344279
Lipids. 1984 Jul;19(7):500-6. doi: 10.1007/BF02534482.

The metabolism of various dietary sterols and the effects of an azasteroid on sitosterol metabolism in the free-living nematodeCaenorhabditis elegans was investigated. The major unesterified sterols ofC. elegans in media supplemented with sitosterol, cholesterol or desmosterol included 7-dehydrocholesterol (66.5%,...

Imitation, genetic lineages, and time influenced the morphological evolution of the violin.

Violin design has been in flux since the production of the first instruments in 16th century Italy. Numerous innovations have improved the acoustical properties and playability of violins. Yet, other attributes of the violin affect its performance less, and...

Robotics in cardiac surgery: past, present, and future.

Rambam Maimonides medical journal

Robotic cardiac operations evolved from minimally invasive operations and offer similar theoretical benefits, including less pain, shorter length of stay, improved cosmesis, and quicker return to preoperative level of functional activity. The additional benefits offered by robotic surgical systems...

Robotic mitral valve repairs requiring reoperations.
