Observation of the Microstructure in Bronze-Processed Multifilamentary Nb3Sn Tapes
The microstructure of the longitudinal and transverse sections of multifilamentary Nb3Sn tapes in which 0.35 at.% Ti is added to the Cu-Sn matrix was observed by TEM and SEM. A kind of grain boundary-like network...

Apolipoprotein B amino acid 3611 substitution from arginine to glutamine creates the Ag (h/i) epitope: the polymorphism is not associated with differences in serum cholesterol and apolipoprotein B levels
A G-to A-DNA sequence change in exon 26 of the human apolipoprotein B (apo B) gene leads to a glutamine substitution for arginine at codon 3611 of the mature apolipoprotein B100 and causes a loss of an MspI site....

Mitochondrial Mutations and the Ageing Process
We have proposed that the accumulation of random somatic gene mutations in the mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) during life is an important contributor to the ageing process. The consequence of these mutations is the...

Measurements of excitation spectra and level lifetimes for highly charged neon ions
Beam foil experiments were carried out for 47 MeV Ne ions passing through C (39 μg/cm2) and A1 (3.4mg/cm2) foils. Highly charged H-, He-., Li-, and Be-like ions were obtained after the foils. The excitation spect...

Mitochondrial DNA Mutations in Aging
Human aging is characterized by the progressive decline in function at the levels of cells, tissues and organs. Various proposals have been put forward to explain the basis of aging, but the differen...
