Biblical Babylon (Chapter 2)
(Taylor & Francis, 2019)The biblical texts about the Tower of Babel, the Babylonian kingdom, and Nebuchadnezzar have shaped our images of Babylon for over 2000 years. The prophets’ devastating speeches and the trauma of the Exile to Babylon may ... -
Binary recursive partitioning: background, methods, and application to psychology
(John Wiley & Sons, 2011-02)Binary recursive partitioning (BRP) is a computationally intensive statistical method that can be used in situations where linear models are often used. Instead of imposing many assumptions to arrive at a tractable statistical ... -
Binding of the von Willebrand factor A domain of capillary morphogenesis protein 2 to anthrax protective antigen vaccine reduces immunogenicity in mice
(NLM (Medline), 2020-01)Protective antigen (PA) is a component of anthrax toxin that can elicit toxin-neutralizing antibody responses. PA is also the major antigen in the current vaccine to prevent anthrax, but stability problems with recombinant ... -
Binding sites of a positron emission tomography imaging agent in Alzheimer’s β amyloid fibrils studied using 19f solid-state NMR
(ACS Publications, 2022-01-11)Amyloid imaging by positron emission tomography (PET) is an important method for diagnosing neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease. Many 11C- and 18F-labeled PET tracers show varying binding capacities, ... -
Binding, electrochemical activation, and cleavage of DNA by cobalt(II) tetrakis-N-methylpyridyl porphyrin and its beta-pyrrole brominated derivative
(American Chemical Society, 2006-11-01)The binding of nucleic acids by water-soluble cobalt(II) tetrakis-N-methylpyridyl porphyrin, (TMPyP)Co, and its highly electron-deficient derivative cobalt(II) tetrakis-N-methyl pyridyl-beta-octabromoporphyrin, (Br(8)TMPyP)Co, ... -
Binomial-chi(2) vector random fields
(SIAM Publ., 2017)We introduce a new class of non-Gaussian vector random fields in space and/or time, which are termed binomial-chi(2) vector random fields and include chi(2) vector random fields as special cases. We define a binomial-chi(2) ... -
Bioactivity of recombinant hFSH glycosylation variants in primary cultures of porcine granulosa cells
(Elsevier, 2020-06-15)Previous studies have reported hypo-glycosylated FSH and fully-glycosylated FSH to be naturally occurring in humans, and these glycoforms exist in changing ratios over a woman's lifespan. The precise cellular and molecular ... -
Biochemical defect of the hph-1 mouse mutant is a deficiency in GTP-cyclohydrolase activity
(PubMed, 1988-02)A hyperphenylalaninemic mouse mutant, hph-1, has been identified in the progeny of mice treated with the mutagen ethylnitrosourea. Phenylalanine hydroxylase activity levels in mutant liver lysates are reduced relative to ... -
