In order to collect semen from a male dog, an artificial vagina is prepared, which is a conical thin latex sleeve ending in a sterile collection tube. The inside of the latex sleeve is lightly lubricated. The male is allowed to sniff a female in estrus. Experienced studs cooperate readily in the process.

In order to combat SCCHN, zalutumumab was designed to inhibit the EGFR signaling. Specifically, it binds to the EGFR Domain III on the cell surface. This locks the receptor in an inactive conformation, making the drug an inverse agonist. In doing this it is also acting as a competitive antagonist for the EGF ligand.

In the inactive conformation, the distance between the intracellular tyrosine kinase residues is larger, which inhibits dimerization. Phosphorylation is consequently inhibited, so that no signal is released.

Hence we define the relative permittivity (or dielectric constant) ϵrel = ϵ/ϵ0 , and the relative permeability μrel = μ/μ0.

In order to conduct an imagined crewed trip to Mars in 39 days, the VASIMR would require an electrical power level far beyond anything currently possible. On top of that, any power generation technology will produce waste heat. The necessary 200 megawatt reactor "with a power-to-mass density of 1,000 watts per kilogram...

In order to conduct photosynthesis, Roseiflexus castenholzii contains light-harvesting - reaction center (LHRC), light-harvesting (LH) only, and reaction center (RC) only complexes. In contrast to most other FAPs, R. castenholzii does not have chlorosomes, which contain great amounts of photosynthetic pigments. Because...

The majority of these pigments are bacteriochlorophyll (BChl). The reaction center in Roseiflexus castenholzii is closely related to the RC of Chloroflexus aurantiacus. R. castenholzii's RC complex contains three subunits: L, M, and a c-type cytochrome. It lacks the H subunit common in purple bacteria. The RC also cont...

In order to confer to the pellets high resistance metallurgic mechanics and appropriate characteristics, the pellets are subjected to thermal processing, which involves stages of drying, preheating, firing, after-firing and cooling. The duration of each stage and the temperature that the pellets are subjected to have a...
