Topological BPS charges in 10- and 11-dimensional supergravity
… to the topological charges of the various BPS branes of the IIA, IIB and $D=11$ supergravity theories. These expressions are related to the structure of the SUSY algebras in curved spacetimes. We consider charges for all the M-, NS- and D-branes as well as the Kaluza-Klein monopoles. …

BPS Approaches to Anyons, Quantum Hall States and Quantum Gravity
… case suffices to protect certain would-be BPS quantities from corrections. This allows us to compute one-loop exact anomalous dimensions of various bound states of non-Abelian anyons, analyse some interesting unitarity bound violations, and test some recently proposed bosonization …

The Role of Bps Polysaccharide in Bordetella Resistance to Host Innate Defenses
… polysaccharides. We have shown that the <italic>bps</italic> locus is required for biofilm formation and production of the <italic>Bordetella</italic> polysaccharide (Bps), a major constituent of <italic>Bordetella</italic> biofilms.

A Self-Regulatory Model of Coping in Women With Interstitial Cystitis/Bladder Pain Syndrome (IC/BPS)
Interstitial Cystitis /Bladder Pain Syndrome (IC/BPS) is a chronic and refractory medical condition that is characterized by chronic pelvic pain along with abnormal urinary frequency and urgency. There is no widely accepted etiology or efficacious cure for IC/BPS, thus treatment often relies on …

An Examination of the Function and the Transcriptional Regulation of the Bps Polysaccharide in Bordetella pertussis Pathogenesis and Biofilm Development
Most bacterial species are capable of existing as surface-adhered communities encased in a matrix called biofilms. These aggregates of sessile bacteria are increasingly being associated with multiple human infections. However, the bacterial factors that contribute to biofilm formation are poorly …

Application of Salt Whey in Process Cheese Food Made from Cheddar Cheese Containing Exopolysaccharides
… meltability of young Cheddar cheese. A non-BPS-producing culture (DVS) was applied in making control cheese. To obtain similar composition in the EPS - positive and negative Cheddar cheeses, the making protocol was modified in the later cheese to increase its moisture level. Three week old …

ASSOCIATION BETWEEN CONCOMITANT USE OF BISPHOSPHONATES AND SEROTONIN REUPTAKE INHIBITORS AND INCREASED RISK OF OSTEOPOROTIC-RELATED FRACTURES: AMONG COMMUNITY-DWELLING POSTMENOPAUSAL WOMEN
… women 65 years or older. Bisphosphonates (BPs) and selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) or serotonin norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs) are commonly used medications to treat these conditions. Inhibitory effects of BPs on osteoclasts are responsible for the reduction in …

Effects of Writing About Trauma and Best Possible Future Self on Health and Mood
… (2001) introduced the Best Possible Future Self (BPS) as a writing topic and reported that writing about BPS led to reduction in the number of health center visits without experiencing negative emotion. The purpose of this study was to examine King's finding using on-line computer reporting. Based …

Structure and Function of Bordetella Transcription Factor BpsR
… In Bordetella, the Bordetella polysaccharide (Bps) is a crucial polysaccharide component of a mature biofilm. Bps production is controlled by the bps locus. This locus contains genes bpsA-D whose expression is necessary for appropriate Bps function. The bpsA promoter is under repressive …

Meta-Analysis of Behavior Problems in Deaf and Hard of Hearing Children
… indicate elevations in behavior problems (BPs) in deaf and hard of hearing (DHH) children (Austen, 2010; Stevenson et al., 2010; van Eldik et al., 2004). Factors affecting this include family and social contexts, language development (LD), and cochlear implantation (CIs). The purpose of …

Exopolysaccharides Modify Functional Properties of Whey Protein Concentrate
… modified functionality using exopolysaccharides (BPS) producing cultures and utilize modified WPC to replace egg whites in cake. Two different BPS-producing cultures, Lactococcus lactis ssp. cremoris (JFR) and Streptococcus thermophilus (DP), producing BPS 1 and BPS2 respectively, were used in …

Identification of novel branch points reveals insights into RNA processing
… as primer extension are usually required to map BPs, with some exceptions. To understand how the BP affects splicing outcomes, we developed an experimental method to locate BPs on a genome-wide scale. Applying our method to Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S. cerevisiae), one of the only eukaryotes for …

Comparison of the Behavioral Pain Scale and the Critical-Care Pain Observation Tool in Assessing Pain in Ventilated Critical Care Patients
… aimed to compare the Behavioral Pain Scale (BPS) and the Critical Care Pain Observation Tool (CPOT) in their effectiveness to identify the presence of pain in nonverbal mechanically ventilated critically ill patients. Nurses’ evaluation with the feasibility, clinical relevance, and …

Rheological, Sensorial and Chemopreventive Properties of Milk Fermented with Exopolysaccharide-Producing Lactic Cultures
… skim milk was fermented with single strains of BPS-producing and non-producing cultures. Fermentation was terminated at pH 4.64 and fermented milk was stored at 4 °C for 12 hours before use. Whey collected on the surface of undisturbed fermented milk samples and after cutting was measured. All …

ADDUCINS AFFECT CORTICAL NEUROGENESIS BY REGULATING PROGENITORS¿ MORPHOLOGY AND FATE
… as apical (APs) and basal progenitors (BPs). BPs are significantly enriched and highly proliferating in gyrencephalic species compared to lissencephalic, leading to an increased neuronal outcome and to cortical folding. BPs are a highly heterogeneous population: they can be classified in …
