Continuous approximation models in freight distribution management
No full textThis paper presents an overview of the literature on continuous approximation models in the context of distribution management. It first describes the seminal contributions of Beardwood, Halton and Hammersley, and of Daganzo and Newell. This is followed by a summary of various extensions, and by applications to districting, location, fleet sizing and vehicle routing

Itraconazole-ciprofloxacin interaction on the pharmacokinetics of the intestinal compartment: preliminary results in rats
No full textAmong their pharmacokinetic characteristics fluoroquinolones (FQs) ex-hibit transintestinal and biliary elimination; moreover, they may interferewith hepatic metabolism. Interactions of FQs with enzymeinhibitors orinducers could be possible during therapy. The inhibitory effects on thehepatic metabolism of Itraconanzole (Itz) should be considered in thekinetics of FQs.Objectives: To study the effect of Itz on intestinal kinetics ofCiprofloxacin (Cpx) following different administration schedule.Methods: Wistar rats (weight 174.0+12.5 g, mean+SD) divided inthree groups were treated as follows: group 1: Cpx, 15 mg/kg/day,orally administered by gavage for three days; group 2: Cpx two hoursafter oral administration of Itz (10 mg/kg/day) for three days; group3: Cpx for 3 days and Itz (10 mg/kg/day) on the 2nd and 3rd day ofCpx administration. Samples of blood, intestinal and hepatic tissuesand faeces were collected after three days of treatment, two hoursafter the last Cpx administration. Cpx concentrations were deter minedby microbiological assay (agar-well diffusion method, K. pneumoniae,Isosensistest agar).Results: reported in the table as mean+SDAfter three days of Itz administration the levels of Cpx increasedsignificantly in liver and faeces (not significantly) while decreased inserum (1/4 positive samples) and intestinal tissues. The administrationof Itz for 2 days in rats in treatment with Cpx induced a significantincrease of Cpx serum levels, a reduction of intestinal levels and amarked decrease in faeces in comparison to Cpx alone.Drugs Serum (mg/L) Intestinaltissue(mg/kg)Liver(mg/kg)Faeces(mg/kg)Cpx 0.05±0.01 (5/5) 10.4±12.2 0.0±0.0 231.6±279.9Cpx + Itz 3 days 0.06 (1/5) 4.2±2.7 1.0±0.3** 367.3±264.9Cpx + Itz 2nd-3rd d 0.2±0.2* (5/5) 7.2±2.4 0.0±0.0 111.8±29.7*p < 0.05, **p < 0.01 Students t test versus Cpx aloneConclusions: These preliminary results suggest a possible involvementof Itz on the intestinal secretory mechanisms of Cpx and changes inthe enterohepatic circulation. The inhibitory effects of Itz on the Cpxintestinal pharmacokinetics seems different according to timing of Itzadministration.MIUR PRIN 2003-Prot. N. 2003051858_00

No full textRichardson, Barbauld, and the construction of an early modern fan club
No full textMPhilMuch has been written about the life and long works of the eighteenth century epistolary novelist, Samuel Richardson, but the prospect of his position as the first celebrity novelist – responsible for courting his own fame as well as initiating his own fan club – has largely been ignored. The body of manuscripts housed at the National Art Library in the Victoria and Albert Museum in London provides the modern scholar with evidence of the skeletal beginnings of an early fan club. This thesis aims to show how these manuscripts were turned into a saleable commodity by the publisher and entrepreneur Richard Phillips, while under the guiding hand of another, slightly later, literary celebrity, Anna Laetitia Barbauld. In order to restore Richardson’s reputation amongst a new nineteenth century audience, Barbauld was required to construct her own idea of him as an eighteenth century celebrity author, and in doing so the insecurities of a self-professed, apparently diffident man, are revealed. Barbauld’s capacious, but heavily edited selection of letters is analyzed in this thesis, providing ample evidence that Richardson’s correspondents were more than just eager letter writers. By using Barbauld’s biography of Richardson this thesis aims to show how she manipulates the genre of life writing in her construction of him.
This thesis offers an alternative reading of how the Richardson manuscripts are viewed, redefining them as not simply a collection of letters, but as a collective entity, deliberately selected and archived as evidence of an early modern fan club, and its celebrity managing director
