THIS week's cover Leader discusses the three-way split in global economic performance that's defined recent months and which will likely characterise growth in 2011.
A combination of methods was employed to characterise growth in kauri growing at Wairongoa Springs.
The use of nmr in parallel experiments to characterise growth of the solid sample within the sinter is also discussed.
Spatial metrics are widely employed for this purpose, appearing in an increasing number of studies where they are used to characterise growth patterns and their evolution over time.
Similar observations have been made in a variety of human xenografts, characterising growth inhibition of sorafenib as disease stabilisation (Wilhelm et al, 2004).
Moreover, it is possible to efficiently clone epidermal stem cells and to obtain a large progeny from a single stem cell, a property that we have used to characterise growth capabilities and transplantability (Barrandon & Green, 1987; Rochat et al, 1994; Mathor et al, 1996; Claudinot et al, 2005; Majo et al, 2008; Bonfanti et al, 2010).
Furthermore, we made 13 sRNA deletion mutants and characterised their growth, although the growth of these deletion mutants was not significantly different from that of wild-type E. coli.
Biological development is characterised by growth and differentiation of cells, which through cell divisions, cell shape changes and cell displacements ultimately shape and form an organism.
A rare diffuse pattern of growth characterised by horizontal growth can masquerade as uveitis.
