Repeated Alcohol Use and Sober-State Reactive Aggression: The Mediating and Moderating Role of Sober-State Executive Cognitive Functioning
… by sober-state executive cognitive functioning (ECF), thus expanding upon research that has examined the relationship between acute alcohol intoxication and consequent aggression while under the influence (Giancola, 2000b). It was hypothesized that ECF would mediate the relationship between …

High Resolution Distributed Sensing Using Exposed-Core Fibres
… been proposed, in which an exposed-core fibre (ECF) is used to detect micro-scaled sized particles. While the ECF has been reported for chemical detection in the past with high sensitivity due to the axial evanescent field along the entire fibre length, this thesis further reveals spatial …

Independence in exponential fields
… we study this class and the more general classes ECFSK, also defined by Zilber, and ECF, studied by Zilber and Kirby. We investigate stable-like behaviour modulo arithmetic in these classes by developing a unique independence relation for each class, and in ECF we use this relation to examine …

Επί μεθόδων στατιστικής συπερασματολογίας με χρήση της εμπειρικής χαρακτηριστικής συνάρτησης
… which use the empirical characteristic function (ecf). In Chapter I we introduce the characteristic function and the ecf and go through some of their important properties. We then provide an intoduction to the history of the applications of the ecf in Statistical Inference and a quick description …

Epidemiology of East Coast Fever in smallholder livestock systems of East Africa
… organ dysfunction and death. East Coast fever (ECF), caused by T. parva and transmitted by the tick Rhipicephalus appendiculatus, is among the deadliest of these infections and causes the development of lymphoproliferative syndrome and the significant reduction in milk production, fertility and …

Essays on external debt and equity finance for UK small businesses
… the role of angels in equity crowdfunding (ECF) dynamics. One prominent example of ECF innovations is the growing role of institutional investors (mainly business angels) who co-invest alongside the crowd. For ECF funding dynamics, the number of investors exhibits a double L-shaped pattern, …

Factors Influencing Topotecan CNS Penetration in Mouse Models
… into brain parenchymal extracellular fluid (ECF). We hypothesize Bcrp1 and P-gp together play a major role in regulation of topotecan CNS penetration. To further characterize the topotecan CNS transport mechanisms, topotecan penetration in two CNS compartments, vCSF and brain parenchymal ECF …

Drug recovery in paediatric tuberculous meningitis
… there are no data on brain extracellular fluid (ECF) concentrations of TB drugs in humans. AIMS AND OBJECTIVES The aim was to produce the first pilot data of RIF concentrations in VCSF in children with TBM and to explore the use of microdialysis (MD) to detect RIF in brain ECF. The primary …

RACIAL CONTEXT: IMPACT ON STUDENTS’ UNDERSTANDING OF RACE, BIAS, AND TALKING WITH YOUNG CHILDREN ABOUT RACE
… on the future of Early Childhood and Family (ECF) majors. In turn, future anti-bias curricula can implement evidence-based strategies that can better enhance its effectiveness, as well as, have sound research that can be generalized to the target population of ECF majors.

Reproductive performance of Holstein cows treated with prostaglandin F2a, gonadotropin releasing hormone, and recombinant bovine Somatotropin
… of the efficacy of the Early Conception Factor (ECF) test kit. Recombinant bST may offer some benefit when used in conjunction with estrus synchronization and TAI. Presynchronization treatment consisted of two injections of PGF2α given 14 d apart, with the second dose administered 14 d prior to …

Stable processes: theory and applications in finance
… (ML) and empirical characteristic function (ECF) methods. It turns out that the ECF is the most recommendable method, challenging literature that instead suggests the ML. Secondly, we develop an affine theory for subordinated random processes and apply the results to pricing commodity futures …

Investigation of the interaction of high current relativistic electron beams with electromagnetic fields
… Doppler-shifted electron cyclotron frequency (ECF) of the electron beam and the natural modes of oscillation of the cavity in which the beam drifts. Observation of radiation at Q-band frequencies would indicate that harmonics of the ECF are also present, albeit at weaker intensities. The …

Hydrolysis and Atmospheric Oxidation Reactions of Perfluorinated Carboxylic Acid Precursors
… synthesis via electrochemical fluorination (ECF). Using synthesized standards of four model compounds, PFAMs were detected and quantified in a variety of legacy commercial materials synthesized by ECF. PFAMs were hypothesized to undergo biological hydrolysis reactions, suggesting their …

Regulated intramembrane proteolysis in the control of the Bacillus subtilis anti-sigma factor RsiW.
The activity of the extracytoplasmic function (ECF)-sigma factor SigW of the Gram-positive soil bacterium Bacillus subtilis is modulated by a specific membrane-bound anti-sigma factor (RsiW). Initiated most likely by cell wall stress, RsiW is degraded by the mechanism of regulated intramembrane …

P27 Expression in Endothelin-1 Stimulated Mitogenesis
… (ECL) or enhanced chemifluorescence (ECF). The data show a marked decrease in cellular p27 in cells treated with 1 OOnM endothelin-1. ET-1 appears to have mitogenic properties in BCEC by downregulating the expression of p27. Stimulation of cell proliferation may be mediated by …
