Collaborations Ultrastructural and immunocytochemical investigations gave evidence that cyanophycin (multi-L-arginyl-poly-L-aspartate) granules accumulated in the cyanobacterium Synechocystis PCC 6803 under nutrient deficient conditions, especially under phosphate limitation. Besides nutrient deficiency, growth of Synechocystis PCC 6803 on L-arginine or L-asparagine (degraded to L-aspartic acid) as sole N-source also led to high increase of cyanophycin synthesis, while growth on the combination of L-arginine or L-asparagine with nitrate only caused minor cyanophycin accumulation.

Summary A full-genome microarray of the (oxy)photosynthetic cyanobacterium Synechocystis 2.) Introduction Prochlorococcus sp. Chl a2/b2 light-harvesting protein (Ting et al., 2002). Many other changes are associated with Fe deficiency in cyanobacteria and cells continue to grow, although the growth rate is somewhat lower and the cells are smaller. The addition of Fe to the cultures can reverse these changes, and cells return to normal within 18 to 24 h after the addition of Fe (Sherman and Sherman, 1983; Riethman et al., 1988). Microarray technology permits an assay of global gene expression patterns under a variety of experimental conditions. These arrays are particularly efficient in organisms for which the entire genome has been sequenced, such as Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803, which is now thought to have 3,264 genes (Kaneko et al., 1996; see Cyanobase at http://www.kazusa.or.jp/cyano/cyano.html). Microarrays have been developed for many systems, including for bacteria such as Escherichia coli (Richmond et al., 1999; Tao et al., 1999; Arfin et al., 2000) and for plants such as

Extractions: Diet and Lifestyle Foodnotes Food Guide Healthy Eating Special Diets Weight Control ... Printer-friendly version Vitamin B12 Deficiency Also indexed as: Pernicious Anemia An abnormally low level of vitamin B12 (cobalamin) is a factor in many disorders. True PA is probably an autoimmune disease. The immune system destroys cells in the stomach that secrete intrinsic factor. Many people with PA have both chronic inflammation of the stomach lining, called atrophic gastritis, and antibodies that fight their intrinsic factor-secreting cells. The term pernicious anemia is sometimes used colloquially to refer to any anemia caused by vitamin B12 deficiency. Vitamin B12 deficiency can be due to malabsorption of dietary B12 despite normal levels of intrinsic factor. For example, celiac disease and may cause B12 malabsorption, which can lead to anemia. Less common causes of B12 deficiency include gastrointestinal surgery, pancreatic disease , intestinal parasites , and certain drugs.
PCC Sound Consumer : Calcium Vs. Magnesium: The Key Is Balance Several of pcc s formulations include vitamin D. If you suffer from two ormore of the following symptoms, you may have a magnesium deficiency http://www.pccnaturalmarkets.com/sc/0403/sc0403-expertadv.html
Extractions: More on calcium and magnesium , April 2004 Sound Consumer by Bart Walton, M.Ac., L.Ac. About 30 or 40 years ago, doctors began routinely prescribing calcium to many men and almost all women over the age of 40 to counter the effects of bone loss due to aging. The conventional wisdom was that bone loss is due to calcium deficiency. Yet after 40 years, it has become evident that taking calcium alone does not stop or even slow bone loss and does not prevent osteoporosis. The new wisdom now emerging is that magnesium is actually the key to the body's proper assimilation and use of calcium, as well as other important nutrients. If we consume too much calcium, and without sufficient magnesium, the excess calcium is not utilized correctly and may actually become toxic, causing painful conditions in the body. Many researchers and nutritionists now believe magnesium is more important than calcium in order to maintain healthy bones. In addition, magnesium is responsible for more than 300 biochemical reactions, all necessary for optimum health. Magnesium plays a vital role in digestion, energy production, muscle contraction and relaxation, bone formation and cell division. In addition, magnesium is a key nutrient in the proper functioning of the heart, the kidneys, the adrenals and the entire nervous system.

In infants, the neurologic findings include hypotonia, lethargy, and developmental delay as well as a peculiar withdrawn behavior. In patients on total or near total intravenous feeding, an unusual distribution of facial fat coupled with the rash and hair loss produces a distinct appearance called "biotin deficiency facies." Clinical uses : Biotin is routinely provided to individuals receiving total intravenous feeding and is incorporated into almost all nutritionally complete dietary supplements and infant formulas. In larger doses, biotin is also used to treat inborn errors of metabolism such as biotinidase deficiency, holocarboxylase synthetase deficiency, and the isolated deficiencies of PC, PCC and MCC. Marginal states of biotin deficiency may develop during normal pregnancy and in patients taking medications such as anticonvulsants that accelerate the rate of biotin breakdown.

Extractions: FINAL REPORT MBTC-1052 Structural Design of Portland Cement Concrete Overlays for Pavements Kevin D. Hall and Nataraj Banihatti Dept. of Civil Engineering University of Arkansas ABSTRACT The most common method used to rehabilitate existing portland cement concrete (PCC) pavements is to place an overlay consisting of asphalt concrete. However, problems with premature rutting of the asphalt overlay and early appearance of reflective cracks in the asphalt overlay have made overlays consisting of portland cement concrete a viable alternative rehabilitation method. Most PCC overlay failures can be attributed to causes other than improper overlay thickness, suggesting that existing design procedures such as the AASHTO procedure provide sufficient overlay thickness to satisfy design requirements. In this study, major factors affecting overlay performance were identified; guidelines for considering those factors in design are presented. In addition, user-friendly computer spreadsheets were developed to aid designers in completing AASHTO-based thickness design for unbonded and bonded PCC overlays. INTRODUCTION Portland cement concrete (PCC) pavements constitute a relatively large percentage of pavements that are designed to carry high volumes of heavy traffic. When designed, constructed and maintained properly, PCC pavements can be expected to provide long service lives. Many factors, however, contribute to the accelerated deterioration of PCC pavements, including construction deficiencies, design loading in excess of that forecasted, material problems, and unanticipated changes in traffic patterns. It is not surprising, therefore, that rehabilitation of PCC pavements is topic receiving much attention.

Extractions: J. Moraghan , Professor Soil Science North Dakota is the leading producer of dry edible bean in the United States, mostly pinto and navy. Dry bean acreage has grown throughout North Dakota recently and makes a good rotation choice in many areas. Most dry bean production is located in the eastern counties, although significant acreage is grown throughout North Dakota. Beans are a warm season crop which prefers fertile, well-drained soils. Good, but not excessive, moisture during the growing season and dry harvest weather favor high yields and quality. Nitrogen nutrition is important in dry bean production not only to sustain high yields, but also because of quality concerns. Excess nitrogen can cause maturity delays and encourage leaf canopy growth, which may promote disease incidence. Maturity delays and increased disease infection may affect the market price that dry bean producers receive. Therefore, nitrogen management is especially important to dry edible bean culture. Dry bean is a legume and has the ability to fix nitrogen if the proper rhizobia are present. There are two problems with dry bean nitrogen fixation:

Extractions: Current toll rates will not produce revenues sufficient to cover costs of operations and maintenance, and the Panama Canal Commission's (PCC's) capital program for plant replacement, expansion and modernization. For FYs 1996-1998 alone, the toll deficiencies projected are $2.2, $34.5 and $69.7 million, respectively. To address this, the PCC here proposes a two-phase toll-rate increase8.2 percent in FY 1997 and 7.5 percent in FY 1998coupled with an amendment to apply rules of measurement to on-deck container capacity as well as the volume of the vessel itself. If for any reason rules of measurement are not applied as proposed here, the general toll-rate increase will be adjusted to 8.7 and 7.9 percent, respectively. 1. The PCC proposes toll rate increases necessary to comply with the Panama Canal Act of 1979 (hereinafter, the "Act"). The Act requires tolls to be set to produce revenues sufficient to cover (1) all costs of operating and maintaining the Canal; (2) capital for plant replacement, expansion, and improvements; and (3) working capital requirements.

Extractions: Purdue University The freshwater cyanobacterium Synechococcus elongatus PCC 7942 holds a special place in the development of cyanobacterial molecular genetics. It was this isolate, previously known as Anacystis nidulans R2, that was the first cyanobacterium demonstrated to be reliably transformable by exogenously added DNA (32). Over the decades, many genetic tools have been developed for S. elongatus , and applied to other transformable cyanobacteria (1, 9, 16). Strain PCC 7942 is very closely related to, and considered the same species as, PCC 6301, which is the type strain for S. elongatus (13) and the first accession in the Pasteur Culture Collection (http://www.pasteur.fr/recherche/banques/PCC/). It is an obligate photoautotroph (13), with a genome of approximately 2.7 Mb (15).
