51 Mecklenburg, RobertGORP: An object-oriented design for genomic objects, relationships and processesThe Eccles Institute for Human Genetics (EIHG) has developed a genomic database based on a novel level of abstraction. Objects, relationships, and processes are explicitly represented in an object model. This model has been implemented in a traditional relational database management system.

52 Miller, Jan D.Hydrophobicity and elemental composition of laser-printed toner filmsLaser-printed toner films on a polymer support were treated with alkaline (NaOH) aqueous solutions at elevated temperature (80-85° C). These toner films were examined with a sessile-drop contact-angle measurement technique in order to establish the hydrophobicity of the toner surface. Also, X-ray p...Ink; Fibers; Deinking1996

55 Olivera, Baldomero M.Identification and characterization of a Ca2+-sensitive nonspecific cation channel underlying prolonged repetitive firing in Aplysia neuronsThe afterdischarge of Aplysia bag cell neurons has served as a model system for the study of phosphorylation-mediated changes in neuronal excitability. The nature of the depolarization generating the afterdischarge, however, has remained unclear. We now have found that venom from Conus textile trig...Ca21-activated nonspecific cation channel; Slow inward current; Ion channel modulation; Afterdischarge; Bursting; Aplysia bag cell neurons; Conus textile; Neurotoxins1996
56 Couldwell, William T.Inhibition of cellular growth and induction of apoptosis in pituitary adenoma cell lines by the protein kinase C inhibitor hypericin: potential therapeutic applicationProtein kinase C (PKC) is an enzyme involved in the regulation of cellular growth, proliferation, and differentiation in a number of tissues including the anterior pituitary, in which it is also believed to play a role in hormone secretion.

58 Capecchi, Mario R.Lessons from angiotensin-converting enzyme-deficient miceSince the first description of renin by Tigerstedt and Bergman [1] in 1898, many papers have described the biochemistry and physiological roles of the reninangiotensin system [2]. A critical component of this system is angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE), a peptidase which cleaves the inactive pep...1996
59 Schmidt, Meic H.Light-emitting diodes as a light source for intraoperative photodynamic therapyTHE DEVELOPMENT OF more cost-effective light sources for photodynamic therapy of brain tumors would be of benefit for both research and clinical applications.

60 Stoller, Leigh B.Low latency workstation cluster communications using sender-based protocolsThe use of workstations on a local area network to form scalable multicomputers has become quite common. A serious performance bottleneck in such "carpet clusters" is the communication protocol that is used to send data between nodes. We report on the design and implementation of a class of communic...Workstations; Scalable multicomputers; Sender-based; Communication protocols1996
61 Dailey, Andrew T.Magnetic resonance neurography for cervical radiculopathy: a preliminary reportMAGNETIC RESONANCE NEUROGRAPHY was used to directly image cervical spinal nerves in patients with clinical and radiographic evidence of cervical radiculopathy.

63 Miller, Jan D.Mercury control in the cyanidation of gold oresThe control of mercury during gold cyanidation is of particular interest to the gold mining industry. Typically, mercury(II) is released as cyano complexes during leaching and follows gold through the solution concentration and purification step (carbon adsorption and electrowinning or zinc cementat...Gold cyanidation; solvation extraction; selective cementation1996
64 Stoller, Leigh B.Message passing support in the Avalanche widgetMinimizing communication latency in message passing multiprocessing systems is critical. An emerging problem in these systems is the latency contribution costs caused by the need to percolate the message through the memory hierarchy (at both sending and receiving nodes) and the additional cost of ma...Avalanche widget; Message passing; Cache coherence; Message copying; Cache miss rates; Computer memory1996
65 Hibler, Michael J.Microkernels meet recursive virtual machines (draft. May 10, 1996))This paper describes a novel approach to providing modular and extensible operating system functionality, and encapsulated environments, based on a synthesis of micro-kernel and virtual machine concepts.
