Multilocus sequence typing of Cronobacter spp. from powdered infant formula and milk powder production factories [PDF]
This study applied the Cronobacter spp. multilocus sequence typing (MLST) scheme to three strain collections, then known as Enterobacter sakazakii, which had been isolated between 1988 and 2009 from 14 countries. The results revealed the predominance (85%

Strain Hardening at Large Strains [PDF]
The strain hardening properties of various fcc metals have been investigated at large strains by means of torsion tests of short thin-walled cylinders. The results show that Stage IV occurs in all cases provided that a low enough test temperature is used; it is a nearly constant hardening rate of 2.10/sup /minus/4/ G in terms of resolved flow stress ...

Abstract Background A routine baseline echocardiogram is often obtained prior to anthracycline administration in children with cancer. The utility of baseline echocardiogram is unclear in patients with standard risk B‐cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (SR B‐ALL) as their anthracycline cumulative dose is low.

Genetic diversity among Frankia strains nodulating members of the family Casuarinaceae in Australia revealed by PCR and restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis with crushed root nodules [PDF]
DNA extracted directly from nodules was used to assess the genetic diversity of #Frankia# strains symbiotically associated with two species of genus #Casuarina# and two of the genus #Allocasuarina# naturally occuring in northeastern Australia.
