Resonant two-photon ionization and laser induced fluorescence spectroscopy of jet-cooled adenine

Resonant two-photon ionization (R2PI) and laser induced fluorescence (LIF) techniques were used to obtain the electronic spectra of the jet-cooled DNA base adenine. The spectrum consisted of two bands of the n??* and ????* characters. The vibronic mixing between the two states resulted in the broad absorption whose onset was located 1100 cm -1 above the n??* origin. The presence of these electronically states revealed the presence of vibronic mixing.open12813

Bilateral hydrothorax and cardiac tamponade after right subclavian vein catheterization -A case report-

Central venous catheterization is typically used for the anesthetic management of patients undergoing a major surgery or care of patients in Intensive Care Unit (ICU). The occurrence of complications associated with central venous catheterization such as pneumothorax or vascular injury have decreased, while delayed complications such as hydrothorax, hydromediastinum, or cardiac tamponade have risen recently. We report a case of complications of bilateral hydrothorax with cardiac tamponade by superior vena cava perforation due to continuous mechanical force of the looped central venous catheter tip against SVC wall after subclavian vein cannulation

Perspective Chapter: Creation and Evolution of Intergeneric Hybrids between <em>Brassica rapa</em> and <em>Raphanus sativus</em>

Although research has been conducted on intergeneric hybridization between Brassica and Raphanus, much of it remains unpublished. We have acquired numerous Brassica rapa ssp. pekinensis (kimchi cabbage) and R. sativus var. major (“big root radish”) hybrids, originally classified as intergeneric hybrids and named “baechumu” in 1995. A cultivar was identified BB#12, (renamed BB#1 for registration) in baemoochae following stabilization via a microspore mutation in 2006. Numerous hybrids were created for various purposes; some were sterile when self-pollinated but fertile in crosses with other cultivars. Microspore mutation also produced, BB#12x is a novel intergeneric hybrid. A new stable plant variety, BB#5, was selected from numerous inbred lines and produced via microspore culture; it has a very late bolting time and is cultivated in spring. The cultivar purple BB#10 was developed by adding radish chromosomes to turnip, including one providing the purple color, and double-crossing with BB#12, CMS BB#12, and normal BB#12. Now that the hybrid between ssp. pekinensis and radish has produced mature seeds as a dominant property, intergeneric hybrid cultivars can be bred in the future

Endoscopic Treatment of Intussusception due to Intestinal Tuberculosis

Traditionally, adult intussusception has required a bowel resection because of the malignancy risk. A patient with anorexia, weight loss, and abdominal pain visited our clinic. A physical exam and imaging study revealed no acute peritoneal signs. A colonoscopy for biopsy and bowel reduction was attempted. The tissue sample was consistent with intestinal tuberculosis. We report intestinal tuberculosis complicating intussusception which was treated without surgical intervention
