Imaging the environment of A z = 6.3 submillimeter galaxy with scuba-2
(2014-08-28)We describe a search for submillimeter emission in the vicinity of one of the most distant, luminous galaxies known, HerMES FLS3, at z = 6.34, exploiting it as a signpost to a potentially biased region of the early universe, ... -
Imaging the transition between pre-planetary and planetary nebulae: : Integral Field Spectroscopy of hot post-AGB stars with NIFS
(2015-02-21)We present 2 to 2.4 micron integral field spectroscopy of a sample of hot post-AGB stars with early-B spectral types, using the NIFS instrument on Gemini North. These stars are just beginning to ionize their immediate ... -
Imagining the impossible : motor representations in anosognosia for hemiplegia
(2009)Anosognosia for hemiplegia (AHP) is characterised by poor insight or underestimation of hemiplegia after brain injury. Recent explanations of AHP have used an established ‘forward model’, which proposes that normal motor ... -
Immersive clinical simulation in undergraduate health care interprofessional education : knowledge and perceptions
(2014-04-02)Background: Interprofessional simulation at the undergraduate level has been tested but is still very scarcely used due to curriculum and logistical issues. Over a 3-year period we have conducted extracurricular immersive ... -
Immersivity in Music Performance with Original Compositions
(2023-03-16)The aim of this study is to critically investigate immersivity in music performance. It will evaluate how the combination of the performance space, musical material and delivery methods can produce unique and valuable sonic ... -
Immigration Policy Paradoxes in Catalonia, Spain, 1985-2011: a Political Economy Approach
(2017-04-12)Before the crisis Catalonia and the rest of Spain received high volumes of immigration – of which much was “illegal”. This was despite formally strict controls – EU policy – and different governments in Madrid claiming to ... -
Immobilized peptides/amino acids on solid supports for metal remediation
(2004-04)Recently, a significant amount of work has focused on metal binding by natural systems for various applications. This review will focus on the utility of amino acids, short peptides, and proteins that have been immobilized ... -
An immunocompromised dialysis patient with skin and bone lesions
(2010-02-28)Patients with chronic kidney failure have disturbances of immune function involving both innate and adaptive systems. These result in both immunodepression which increases susceptibility to infection and immunoactivation ... -
Immunocytochemical localization of the elongation factor Tu in E. coli cells
(1984)The localization of the elongation factor Tu (EF-Tu) in ultrathin cryosections of E. coli cells was determined with the electron microscope using a highly specific immunological labellin technique. EF-Tu is distributed ... -
An immunohistochemical and stereological analysis of PSI-induced nigral neuronal degeneration in the rat
(2009-04)Systemic administration of the proteasomal inhibitor I (PSI) to rats was reported to cause progressive nigral dopaminergic neuronal loss but this is disputed. A major controversy centres over the use of manual counting of ... -
Immunohistochemistry for p16, but not Rb or p21, is an independent predictor of prognosis in conservatively treated, clinically localised prostate cancer
(2010-10-01)Aims: Treatment decisions are difficult in clinically localised prostate cancer and further biomarkers of aggressive behaviour are required. We investigated the hypothesis that the tissue expression of three cell cycle ... -
Immunological differentiation of root-knot nematodes (Meloidogyne spp) using monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies
(1992-07)Polyclonal and monoclonal antibodies were produced to supernatants of soluble proteins from homogenates of root-knot nematodes (Meloidogyne spp.). The _antibodies were used to investigate differences between second-stage ... -
Immunological quantification of the nematode parasitic bacterium Pasteuria penetrans in soil
(2001-11)Currently, the abundance of Pasteuria penetrans in soils, an unculturable bacterial parasite of root-knot nematodes (Meloidogyne spp,). is estimated by the percentage of nematode juveniles infected with bacteria and the ... -
Immunomodulatory effects of schistosome cercarial interactions with human keratinocytes and Langerhans cells
(2007-05)The human parasite Schistosoma mansoni is known to modulate host immune responses in order to promote its own survival. However, studies investigating the interaction between the skin-invading cercarial stage and cells of ... -
Immunosurveillance associated with upper respiratory symptoms in elite swimmers: 8-month period leading into Commonwealth Games
(2023-07-07)Most research suggests that a greater degree of immune suppression and subsequent increased illness risk occurs during winter and the heaviest training periods. Monitoring an individual’s change in salivary Immunoglobulin ... -
Immunotherapy in Urological Tumors
(2019)The past decade has seen significant improvement in our understanding of tumor biological features, which has led to use of anti-programmed-death 1 (PD-1) and anti-PDligand-1 (PD-L1) agents and cytotoxic T lymphocytes ...
