Practical Aspects of Processing and Interpretation of the Results of Microbiological Analysis of the Quality of Non-Sterile Medicines
The article presents materials on processing and interpretation of the results of microbiological analysis of the quality of medicines in accordance with the State Pharmacopoeia of the Russian Federation and the Pharmacopoeia of the Eurasian Economic Union. It exemplifies the use of the rules for processing test results and counting aerobic microorganisms and microscopic fungi on agar culture media in Petri dishes and on membrane filters. The author discusses the possibility of and prospects for applying various sample inoculation methods, as well as using calculation factors when interpreting their results. The text covers approaches to repeating microbiological testing of medicines to verify the reliability of a non-compliant first result
Aspectus et Affectus: Essays and Editions in Grosseteste and Medieval Intellectual Life in Honor of Richard C. Dales
R. James Long is a contributing author, A Thirteenth Century Teaching Aid: An Edition of the Bodleian Abbreviatio of the Pseudo Aristotelian De plantis, , pp. 87-103.
Book description: The 65th year of a scholar who has devoted 40 years to editing and elucidating Robert Grosseteste provides us with a collection of essays. Not surprisingly, they emanate from colleagues and former students of Richard Dales and reflect his interest, among other concerns, in Grosseteste\u27s aspectus et affectus - range of vision and disposition of mind - those twin peaks with which the 13th century thinker helped to get Christian thought through Aristotle without mutual destruction. Joining Sir Richard Southern are 8 scholars whose contributions fill two parts of this book, Robert Grosseteste and Medieval Intellectual Life . In addition to essays on Grosseteste are articles on Hugh of Amiens, Alfred of Sareschel\u27s commentary on Avicenna, the Oxford Condemnations of 1277, a 13th-century teaching aid, and canonistic determinations on the stages of childhood

На примерах показано использование правил учета результатов и расчета количества аэробных микроорганизмов и микроскопических грибов на агаризованной питательной среде в чашках Петри и на мембранных фильтрах. Обсуждаются возможности и перспективы использования различных методов посева образцов и применения расчетных коэффициентов при интерпретации результатов. Рассмотрены подходы к повторному микробиологическому испытанию лекарственных средств в случае первичного выявления несоответствия, которое требует подтверждения для получения достоверного результата
Pharmacy Practice and Education in Austria
The PHARMINE (“Pharmacy Education in Europe”) project studied pharmacy practice and education in the European Union (EU) member states. The work was carried out using an electronic survey sent to chosen pharmacy representatives. The surveys of the individual member states are now being published as reference documents for students and staff interested in research on pharmacy education in the EU and in mobility. This paper presents the results of the PHARMINE survey on pharmacy practice and education in Austria. In the light of this, we examine the harmonisation of practice and education in Austria with EU norms.© 2018 by the author
Search for Decays at the Belle Experiment
We report the result of a search for the decay . The signal events are selected based on the presence of a high momentum muon and the topology of the rest of the event showing properties of a generic -meson decay, as well as the missing energy and momentum being consistent with the hypothesis of a neutrino from the signal decay. We find a 2.4 standard deviation excess above background including systematic uncertainties, which corresponds to a branching fraction of or a frequentist 90% confidence level interval on the branching fraction of . This result is obtained from a data sample that contains pairs, collected near the resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy collider
Observation of

Precision Studies of QCD in the Low Energy Domain of the EIC
103 pages,47 figuresInternational audienceThe manuscript focuses on the high impact science of the EIC with objective to identify a portion of the science program for QCD precision studies that requires or greatly benefits from high luminosity and low center-of-mass energies. The science topics include (1) Generalized Parton Distributions, 3D imagining and mechanical properties of the nucleon (2) mass and spin of the nucleon (3) Momentum dependence of the nucleon in semi-inclusive deep inelastic scattering (4) Exotic meson spectroscopy (5) Science highlights of nuclei (6) Precision studies of Lattice QCD in the EIC era (7) Science of far-forward particle detection (8) Radiative effects and corrections (9) Artificial Intelligence (10) EIC interaction regions for high impact science program with discovery potential. This paper documents the scientific basis for supporting such a program and helps to define the path toward the realization of the second EIC interaction region
Genome-wide association and functional follow-up reveals new loci for kidney function
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is an important public health problem with a genetic component. We performed genome-wide association studies in up to 130,600 European ancestry participants overall, and stratified for key CKD risk factors. We uncovered 6 new loci in association with estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), the primary clinical measure of CKD, in or near MPPED2, DDX1, SLC47A1, CDK12, CASP9, and INO80. Morpholino knockdown of mpped2 and casp9 in zebrafish embryos revealed podocyte and tubular abnormalities with altered dextran clearance, suggesting a role for these genes in renal function. By providing new insights into genes that regulate renal function, these results could further our understanding of the pathogenesis of CKD
Measurement of the tensor structure function b(1) of the deuteron
The Hermes experiment has investigated the tensor spin structure of the deuteron using the 27.6GeV/c positron beam of DESY HERA. The use of a tensor-polarized deuteron gas target with only a negligible residual vector polarization enabled the first measurement of the tensor asymmetry Azzd and the tensor structure function b1d for average values of the Bjorken variable 0.01<x<0.45 and of the negative of the squared four-momentum transfer 0.5GeV2Q2<5GeV2. The quantities Azzd and b1d are found to be nonzero. The rise of b1d for decreasing values of x can be interpreted to originate from the same mechanism that leads to nuclear shadowing in unpolarized scattering. © 2005 The American Physical Society
Measurement of the branching fractions for Cabibbo-suppressed decays and at Belle
International audienceWe present measurements of the branching fractions for the singly Cabibbo-suppressed decays and , and the doubly Cabibbo-suppressed decay , based on 980 of data recorded by the Belle experiment at the KEKB collider. We measure these modes relative to the Cabibbo-favored modes and . Our results for the ratios of branching fractions are , , and , where the uncertainties are statistical and systematic, respectively. The second value corresponds to , where is the Cabibbo angle; this value is larger than other measured ratios of branching fractions for a doubly Cabibbo-suppressed charm decay to a Cabibbo-favored decay. Multiplying these results by world average values for and yields , , and , where the third uncertainty is due to the branching fraction of the normalization mode. The first two results are consistent with, but more precise than, the current world averages. The last result is the first measurement of this branching fraction
