A meta-analysis of sugarbeet yield responses to nitrogen fertilizer measured in England since 1980
(2009-06)The data from 161 experiments testing the response of sugarbeet yield to nitrogen fertilizer were assembled in a database. Three commonly used N response models (Mitscherlich, linear plus exponential and bilinear) were ... -
A meta-analytic review of category naming in Alzheimer's disease
(2007)Patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD) experience word-finding difficulties that become increasingly pronounced as pathological changes accrue in the brain. One question that has received increasing attention over the last ... -
Metabolism of AF1 (KNEFIRF-NH2) in the nematode, Ascaris suum, by aminopeptidases, endopeptidase and deaminase enzymes
(1996-01)We have studied the metabolism and inactivation of AF1 (KNEFIRF-NH2) by membranes prepared from the locomotory muscle of Ascaris suum. FIRF-NH2, NEFIRF-NH2 and KNEFIRF were identified as three primary degradation products, ... -
Metabolism of Butoxyethanol in excised human skin in vitro
(2008)Glycol ethers are widely used in industrial and household applications because their chemical and physical properties make them versatile solvents, miscible with both water and organic media. Due to the ease with which the ... -
Metabolism of captopril carboxyl ester derivatives for percutaneous absorption
(2009)To determine the metabolism of captopril n-carboxyl derivatives and how this may impact on their use as transdermal prodrugs. The pharmacological activity of the ester derivatives was also characterised in order to compare ... -
Metabolism of ticagrelor in patients with acute coronary syndromes.
(2018-09-06)Ticagrelor is a state-of-the-art antiplatelet agent used for the treatment of patients with acute coronary syndromes (ACS). Unlike remaining oral P2Y12 receptor inhibitors ticagrelor does not require metabolic activation ... -
Metabolite identification in drug discovery
(2003-01-01)Recent developments in the technologies and approaches to identify metabolites in a drug discovery environment are reviewed. Samples may be generated using either in vitro systems - typically, but not exclusively, liver ... -
Metacognitive beliefs mediate the relationship between Anxiety Sensitivity and traits of Obsessive-Compulsive Symptoms
(2020-04-26)Background: Metacognition has been shown as a key contributor to Obsessive Compulsive Disorder as well as other anxiety-related disorders, yet its role in the development and maintenance of these disorders remains unclear. ... -
Metadata Extraction and Classification of YouTube Videos Using Sentiment Analysis
(IEEE 978-1-5090, 2016-10-24)MPEG media have been widely adopted and is very successful in promoting interoperable services that deliver video to consumers on a range of devices. However, media consumption is going beyond the mere playback of a media ... -
Metagenomics approach for Polymyxa betae genome assembly enables comparative analysis towards deciphering the intracellular parasitic lifestyle of the plasmodiophorids
(2022-01-01)Genomic knowledge of the tree of life is biased to specific groups of organisms. For example, only six full genomes are currently available in the rhizaria clade. Here, we have applied metagenomic techniques enabling the ... -
Metal abundances of sdB stars

Metal Abundances of Subdwarf B Stars from SPY - a Pattern Emerges
(Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 2008)The formation of sdBs is still puzzling, as is the chemical compo- sition of their atmospheres. While helium and other light elements are depleted relative to solar values, heavy elements are highly enriched. Diffusion ... -
Metal binding characterization and conformational studies using Raman microscopy of resin-bound poly(aspartic acid)
(2007-03-01)The metal binding capacities, conditional stability constants, and secondary structure of immobilized polyaspartic acid (PLAsp) (n = 6, 20, and 30) on TentaGel resin were determined when binding Mg2+, Co2+, Cd2+, and Ni2+. ... -
Metal remediation and preconcentration using immobilized short-chain peptides composed of aspartic acid and cysteine
(2005-08)Short-chain peptides (two and seven residues) consisting of a glycine (Gly) attachment group and various combinations of cysteine (Cys) and/or aspartic acid (Asp) were synthesized by Fmoc solid phase peptide synthesis ... -
The metal rich abundance pattern - spectroscopic properties and abundances for 107 main-sequence stars
(2017-07-01)We report results from the high resolution spectral analysis of the 107 metal rich (mostly [Fe/H]$\ge$7.67 dex) target stars from the Calan-Hertfordshire Extrasolar Planet Search program observed with HARPS. Using our ... -
Metal-based nanoparticles for combating antibiotic resistance
(2021-10-05)The resistance to antibiotics in combating bacteria is a serious worldwide problem. The search for new approaches to address antibacterial resistance is therefore of crucial importance and seeking alternatives for the ... -
A metal-biased planet search
(American Institute of Physics (AIP), 2009)We have begun a metal-rich planet search project using the HARPS instrument in La Silla, Chile to target planets with a high potential to transit their host star and add to the number of bright benchmark transiting planets. ... -
Metal-Free Disordered Vertical Sub-Micron Silicon Wires Produced from Electrochemical p-Type Porous Silicon Layers
(2011)In this paper, we propose a simple, original and costless method to produce monocrystalline silicon sub-micron wires by electrochemical etching of silicon wafers. For this purpose, 30-50 Omega cm p-type silicon samples ...
