Some Bacillus thuringiensis strains share rpoB nucleotide polymorphisms also present in Bacillus anthracis
Identification of Bacillus anthracis is considerably difficult because of its very high phenotypic and genotypic similarity to other members of the Bacillus cereus group. Differentiation methods based on morphological and phenotypic characteristics are time-consuming, and false results may be obtained for atypical strains. On the other hand molecular discrimination based on the presence of two B. anthracis virulence plasmids, pXO1 and pXO2, is not sufficient because plasmids can be lost or transferred to other bacilli. Therefore, several chromosomal markers have been investigated and applied (1, 8). In 2001 Qi et al. (7) described single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the rpoB gene and their usefulness for B. anthracis identification. Since then, several articles describing various molecular methods for rpoB sequence-based detection of B. anthracis have been published (for example see references 2 and 9).
We conducted studies of single-strand conformation polymorphisms (SSCPs) of the rpoB gene in a large collection of B. cereus group strains. Surprisingly, we found that the nucleotide sequence of the rpoB gene fragment containing the marker SNPs of two reference strains of Bacillus thuringiensis was identical to that of the homologous region in B. anthracis. Therefore, rpoB gene-based tools could not distinguish these strains from B. anthracis, thus resulting in false-positive anthrax identification
Poligami Perspektif Kitab al-TafsÄ«r al-WasÄ«t li al-Qur’Än al-KarÄ«m
Artikel ini membahas tentang poligami menurut sudut pandang kitab al-TafsÄ«r al-WasÄ«t Li al-Qur’Än al-KarÄ«m karya Muhammad Sayyid TÄntÄwÄ« dengan menggunakan metode analisa deskriptif dan teori gender. Dalam penelitian ini, penulis menemukan bahwa kitab al-TafsÄ«r al-WasÄ«t Li al-Qur’Än al-KarÄ«m ini membahas poligami dari berbagai aspek. Dari segi sababun nuzul, kitab ini hanya menggambarkan secara umum sejarah turunnya ayat poligami. Sementara dari segi historisnya, kitab ini menjelaskan tentang praktik poligami yang terjadi pada beberapa bangsa. Menurut kitab ini hukum poligami adalah boleh dengan syarat mampu berlaku adil. Namun, dalam keadaan tertentu (darurat) poligami bahkan menjadi wajib untuk dilakukan. Kebolehan poligami ini hanyalah merupakan despensasi yang diberikan oleh al-Qur’an untuk menghindari zina. Di bagian tertentu dari tafsir ini, penulis menemukan adanya keadilan gender, akan tetapi di sisi lain, kitab ini tidak terlepas dari bias gender

Il contributo fornisce una ricostruzione delle questioni emergenti in materia di diritti e doveri reciproci tra i coniugi alla luce della recente casistica giurisprudenziale di legittimità e di merito
Effetto dell’integrazione della dieta di pecore con Rosmarinus officinalis sullo stato ossidativo del formaggio Pecorino durante la stagionatura R. BRANCIARI, C. FORTE, M. TRABALZA MARINUCCI, D. RANUCCI, M. ORRU, M. CODINI, R. ORTENZI, D. MIRAGLIA, A. VALIANI
E' stato valutato l ́effetto dell ́integrazione di
rosmarino nella dieta di pecore da latte sulla stabilità ossidativa ed il potere
antiossidante del formaggio Pecorino. La somministrazione di rosmarino
si è dimostrata in grado di influenzare lo stato ossidativo dei formaggi.
I TBARs (Fig. 1) hanno fatto registrare valori inferiori nel gruppo R rispetto
al gruppo CTR a partire da 30 giorni fino alla fine del periodo di
stagionatura. Per quanto riguarda la capacità antiossidante del formaggio
anch’essa è aumentata nel corso della stagionatura ed è risultata
influenzata dal trattamento alimentare fin dal primo giorno

Kitab al-fiqh 'ala madzahib al-arba'ah
Fikih komparatif empat mazhab karya al jaziri. Kitab al-Fiqh ?ala al-Mazahib al-Arba?ah ( الفقه على المذاهب الاربعة ) atau kitab Fiqh Empat Mazhab adalah sebuah kitab perbandingan mazhab yang cukup terkenal.kitab ini membahas permasalahan fiqh antar mazham yang muktamad dalam Ahlus Sunnah wal Jama?ah, yaitu mazhab Hanafi, Maliki, Syafi?i dan Hanbali.
Kitab ini merupakan karya Syaikh Abd al-Raĥmān Ibn Muĥammad ` Awađ al-Jazīrī, lahir di Shandawīl,Mesir pada tahun 1882 (1299 H) dan menuntut ilmu agama di al-Azhar dari tahun 1896 hingga tahun 1909.beliau kemudian diangkat menjadi guru di al-Azhar
Optimal solution of the nearest correlation matrix problem by minimization of the maximum norm
The nearest correlation matrix problem is to find a valid (positive semidefinite) correlation matrix, R(m,m), that is nearest to a given invalid (negative semidefinite) or pseudo-correlation matrix, Q(m,m); m larger than 2. In the literature on this problem, 'nearest' is invariably defined in the sense of the least Frobenius norm. Research works of Rebonato and Jaeckel (1999), Higham (2002), Anjos et al. (2003), Grubisic and Pietersz (2004), Pietersz, and Groenen (2004), etc. use Frobenius norm explicitly or implicitly. However, it is not necessary to define 'nearest' in this conventional sense. The thrust of this paper is to define 'nearest' in the sense of the least maximum norm (LMN) of the deviation matrix (R-Q), and to obtain R nearest to Q. The LMN provides the overall minimum range of deviation of the elements of R from those of Q. We also append a computer program (source codes in FORTRAN) to find the LMN R from a given Q. Presently we use the random walk search method for optimization. However, we suggest that more efficient methods based on the Genetic algorithms may replace the random walk algorithm of optimization.Nearest correlation matrix problem; Frobenius norm; maximum norm; LMN correlation matrix; positive semidefinite; negative semidefinite; positive definite; random walk algorithm; Genetic algorithm; computer program; source codes; FORTRAN; simulation
Specific Bacillus anthracis identification by a plcR-targeted restriction site insertion-PCR (RSI-PCR) assay
A RSI-PCR assay was developed for the detection of a Bacillus anthracis-specific nonsense mutation in the plcR gene. The assay specificity was tested using 170 Bacillus spp. strains including 47 strains of B. anthracis. The plcR RSI-PCR distinguished Bacillus cereus group strains closely related to B. anthracis from the anthrax agent. The assay was found to be a robust, simple and cost effective tool for B. anthracis identification. In contrast to previously developed real time PCR-based methods, the RSI-PCR needs basic molecular biology equipment only, and thus may be easily introduced in developing countries, where anthrax is endemic
