    Genus MENECTETORUS Faust, 1894 Menectetorus Faust, Mus. Civ. stor. nat. Genova, Ann. 34: 284, 1894. Pseudapries Lea, Soc. ent. Belg., Mem. 16: 182, 1908. (New synonym.) The genus Menectetorus was described for the reception of a single species from Burma, and until now has remained monotypic. A cotype of the genotype (M. luctuosus) was included in some material sent to me for study from the National Museum by Mr. Buchanan. It is distinctly congeneric with typical species of Pseudapries, and that genus must fall as a synonym. Menectetorus luctuosus closely resembles the genotype of Pseudapries. In Coleopterorum Catalogus (part 151, Cryptorrhynchinae, p. 70), Hustache has placed Pseudapries among the Colobodina in the Ithyporinae. The genus has nothing in common with the lthyporinae and should be placed next to Chaetectetorus in the Cryptorhynchina. In 1909, Lea separated Pseudapries from Chaetectetorus on the comparative length of the metasternum and first abdominal segment, the metasternum being longer along the median line than the first ventrite in Pseudapries, shorter in Chaetectetorus. However, on the genotype of Chaetectetprus (C. bifasciatus) the metasternum is fully as long or slightly longer than the first ventrite; a better character is: second ventrite much longer than 3 plus 4, almost as long as 3 plus 4 plus 5 = Chaetectetorus; and, second ventrite shorter than 3 plus 4 = Menectetorus. Following the use of this character, it becomes necessary to transfer the Fijian and Samoan Chaetectetorus to Menectetorus as follows:Published as part of Zimmerman, Elwood C., 1942, Curculionidae of Guam, pp. 73-146 in Insects of Guam I, Honolulu, Hawaii :Bernice P.

    Measurement of the ratio of prompt χ c to J / ψ production in pp collisions at √s = 7 TeV

    No full text
    The prompt production of charmonium χ c and J / ψ states is studied in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of √s = 7 TeV at the Large Hadron Collider. The χ c and J / ψ mesons are identified through their decays χ c → J / ψ γ and J / ψ → μ + μ - using 36 pb - 1 of data collected by the LHCb detector in 2010. The ratio of the prompt production cross-sections for χ c and J / ψ, σ (χ c → J / ψ γ) / σ (J / ψ), is determined as a function of the J / ψ transverse momentum in the range 2 < p T J / ψ < 15 GeV / c. The results are in excellent agreement with next-to-leading order non-relativistic expectations and show a significant discrepancy compared with the colour singlet model prediction at leading order, especially in the low p T J / ψ region

    Cloning and characterization of the cDNA for the murine iduronate sulfatase gene.

    No full text
    Iduronate sulfatase (IDS; EC 3.1.6.13) is a lysosomal enzyme that acts on sulfate groups on C-2 positions of iduronic acid residues of the mucopolysaccharides dermatan and heparan sulfate. A deficiency of this enzyme activity in man leads to Hunter syndrome (Mucopolysaccharidosis type II). We report here the cloning and sequence characterization of the murine iduronate sulfatase cDNA which encodes 564 amino acid residues. Within the coding region the murine gene is 84.9 and 84.5 identical to the human gene at the nucleotide and amino acid levels, respectively. The two regions containing the putative catalytic site are especially well conserved. Genetic mapping of the murine Ids cDNA in an interspecific backcross confirms an X chromosomal location between Fmr-1 and Gabra3. © 1993 Academic Press. All rights reserved

    Context. Planet formation around young stars requires the growth of interstellar dust grains from micron-sized (μm-sized) particles to kilometre-sized (km-sized) planetesimals. Numerical simulations have shown that large (mm-sized) grains found in the inner envelope of young protostars could be lifted from the disc via winds. However, we are still lacking unambiguous evidence for large grains in protostellar winds and outflows. Aims. We investigated dust continuum emission in the envelope of the Class I binary L1551 IRS5 in the Taurus molecular cloud, aiming to identify observational signatures of grain growth, such as variations in the dust emissivity index (βmm). Methods. In this context, we present new, high-angular resolution (50 au) observations of thermal dust continuum emission at 1.3 mm and 3 mm in the envelope (∼3000 au) of L1551 IRS5, obtained as part of the ALMA-FAUST Large Program. Results. We analysed dust emission along the cavity walls of the CO outflow, extended up to ∼1800 au. We found an H2 volume density > 2 × 105 cm−3, a dust mass of ∼58 M⊕, and βmm ≲ 1, implying the presence of grains ∼103 times larger than typical sizes for the interstellar medium (ISM). Conclusions. We present the first spatially resolved observational evidence of large grains within an outflow cavity wall. Our results suggest that these grains have been transported from the inner disc to the envelope by protostellar winds and may subsequently fall back into the outer disc by gravity and/or via accretion streamers. This cycle provides longer time for grains to grow, demonstrating their crucial role in the formation of planetesimals

    Ophthalmology. 2005 Feb;112(2):208-18; discussion 219. Mitomycin C modulation of corneal wound healing after photorefractive keratectomy in highly myopic eyes. Gambato C, Ghirlando A, Moretto E, Busato F, Midena E. SourceRefractive Surgery Service and Antimetabolite Therapy Research Unit, Department of Ophthalmology, University of Padova, Padova, Italy. Abstract PURPOSE: To evaluate the role of topical mitomycin C in corneal wound healing (CWH) after photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) in highly myopic eyes. DESIGN: Prospective, double-masked, randomized clinical trial. PARTICIPANTS: Seventy-two eyes of 36 patients affected by high (>7 diopters) myopia. METHODS: In each patient, one eye was randomly assigned to PRK with intraoperative topical 0.02% mitomycin C application, and the fellow eye was treated with a placebo. Postoperatively, mitomycin C-treated eyes received artificial tears (3 times daily, tapered in 3 months), whereas the fellow eye was treated with fluorometholone sodium 2% and artificial tears (3 times daily, tapered in 3 months). MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA) and best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), contrast sensitivity, manifest refraction, and biomicroscopy. Contrast sensitivity was determined using the Pelli-Robson chart. Corneal confocal microscopy documented CWH. RESULTS: Mean follow-up was 18 months (range, 12-36). No side effects or toxic effects were documented. At 12-month follow-up examination, UCVAs (logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution) were 0.4+/-0.48 and 0.5+/-0.53 (P = .03) in mitomycin C-treated eyes and corticosteroid-treated eyes, respectively. At 1 year, corneal haze developed in 20% of corticosteroid-treated eyes, versus 0% of mitomycin C-treated eyes. At 12, 24, and 36 months, corneal confocal microscopy showed activated keratocytes and extracellular matrix significantly more evident in untreated eyes (Ps = 0.004, 0.024, and 0.046, respectively). CONCLUSION: Topical intraoperative application of 0.02% mitomycin C can reduce haze formation in highly myopic eyes undergoing PRK. Comment in Ophthalmology. 2006 Feb;113(2):357; author reply 357-8

    Convective–reactive nucleosynthesis of K, Sc, Cl and p-process isotopes in O–C shell mergers

    © 2017 The Author(s). Published by Oxford University Press on behalf of the Royal Astronomical Society. We address the deficiency of odd-Z elements P, Cl, K and Sc in Galactic chemical evolution models through an investigation of the nucleosynthesis of interacting convective O and C shells in massive stars. 3D hydrodynamic simulations of O-shell convection with moderate C-ingestion rates show no dramatic deviation from spherical symmetry. We derive a spherically averaged diffusion coefficient for 1D nucleosynthesis simulations, which show that such convective-reactive ingestion events can be a production site for P, Cl, K and Sc. An entrainment rate of 10-3M⊙s-1features overproduction factors OPs≈ 7. Full O-C shell mergers in our 1D stellar evolution massive star models have overproduction factors OPm> 1 dex but for such cases 3D hydrodynamic simulations suggest deviations from spherical symmetry. γ - process species can be produced with overproduction factors of OPm> 1 dex, for example, for130, 132Ba. Using the uncertain prediction of the 15M⊙, Z = 0.02 massive star model (OPm≈ 15) as representative for merger or entrainment convective-reactive events involving O- and C-burning shells, and assume that such events occur in more than 50 per cent of all stars, our chemical evolution models reproduce the observed Galactic trends of the odd-Z elements
