The Xist gene produces a long non-coding RNA that coats the X chromosome in cis and is responsible for X-linked gene silencing and X-chromosome-wide acquisition of facultative heterochromatic properties [ 7].
Facility-wide acquisition and/or return costs and quantities for all systemic antimicrobial agents (antibacterial, antifungal and antiviral) were recorded monthly from pharmacy records for the baseline and intervention periods.
From the behavioral point of view, Kohli and Jaworski (1990) define market orientation as the organization of wide information acquisition, dissemination, and responsiveness to market intelligence.
SFDI combines quantitative spectroscopy with depth sampling appropriate for margin assessment and optimally balances the tradeoffs between wide-field acquisition and signal localization.
The wide-field acquisition with thousands of speckles in a small region would allow us to average results from many speckles to improve the SNR of speckle based blood flow measurements as well as high density tomographic measurements.
3-DE datasets were acquired using a wide-angled acquisition (93×80°) mode in which four wedge-shaped subvolumes (93°×20° each) are obtained over four different cardiac cycles during a short breath-hold.
Quantitative phase microscopy (QPM) is a particularly important feature of DHM [ 11, 12], because it allows measurement of optical thickness with nanometer-scale accuracy by single-shot, wide-field acquisition, and it yields phase profiles without some of the complications of other phase imaging methods.
The company's wide-ranging acquisitions spree made it the UK's biggest cable TV operator, but also helped plunge it into debt.
During Mr. Dodson's tenure at the Schomburg, which began in 1984, his wide-ranging acquisitions and major exhibitions burnished its reputation as a premiere multifaceted center for black culture and research library.
Howard Dodson, whose wide-ranging acquisitions and major exhibitions have raised the profile of the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture and burnished its reputation as the premier institution of its kind, plans to retire as its director in 2011.
For most methods, these results did not vary strongly over a wide range of acquisition parameters (number of diffusion weighting directions and b value).
