Modular support blocks for fluid lines

Modular line block comprises matched modular elements machined to accept fluid lines of different diameters. Modules can support different fluid-line configurations. Top and bottom surfaces are machined to accept dovetail strip used for holding modules together. End modules have holes drilled through to accept fastening screws

Evaluating the collaborative strategic reading intervention: An overview of randomized controlled trial options

When attempting to determine if an intervention has a causal impact, the ‘gold standard’ of program evaluation.is the randomized controlled trial (RCT). In education studies random assignment is rarely feasible at the.student level, making RCTs harder to conduct. School-level assignment is more common but this often.requires considerable resources compared to designs where classrooms can be assigned within a school. This.article describes the costs and benefits of testing the effects of a classroom based instructional intervention.using the multi-site cluster RCT. Topics covered include a discussion of various design options, statistical.power, contamination, prior evidence, generalizability of results, ease of recruitment and need for data.collection. The purpose of the article is to inform practice by providing program evaluators with an in-depth.look at various RCT design options that were considered when searching for a way to efficiently evaluate a.school-based intervention.

Some properties of RAT liver mitochondrial RNA polymerase

A rapid method suitable for purifying large amounts of mitochondria from rat liver using isopycnic zonal centrifugation is described. The RNA polymerase isolated from the purified mitochrondria was found associated with one peak when resolved by DEAE Sephadex chromatography. The enzyme was next fractionated on a phosphocellulose column followed by glycerol gradient centrifugation. A 600-fold purification was achieved when the enzyme was finally filtered through agarose gel. This final enzyme fraction consisted of one polypeptide chain as shown by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis profiles. The enzyme has a greater preference for poly [d(A-T)] templates than for rat liver mitochondrial DNA. Inhibition of the enzyme activity required high concentrations of the inhibitors. The resistance of the enzyme to α -amanitin indicated that there was no contamination from nuclear RNA polymerase II. The conclusion is drawn that the mitochondrial RNA polymerase activity is associated with a single polypeptide.Peer Reviewedhttp://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/45331/1/11010_2005_Article_BF01731777.pd
