Example Sentences:

(2) We measured the effect of aqueous CO2 (succinate + sodium bicarbonate = Kao Bub; 1400 mg CO2 per kg water) compared with fresh water (both at 34 degrees C, depth of leg immersion 35 cm, immersion time 20 min) on circulation and TCPO2 in the feet of 15 patients with bilateral stage-II occlusion of the Aa.
(3) However, three strains of aboriginal mice, including Mus hortulanus (spicilegus) and Mus spretus, had complement levels higher than that of BUB mice, and as high as sera from the rabbit or rat, which are the most potent known complement sources for the lysis of human tumor cells.
(4) Lil Bub Photograph: LilBub.com Given that Lil Bub's tongue is permanently out, we think she'd be great in a rom-com.
(5) Adult mice of four inbred strains (A, BUB, C57BL, DBA) and two selectively bred lines [Long-Sleep (LS) and Short-Sleep (SS)] were tested for differences in glucocorticoid regulation of nicotine sensitivity.
(6) The sensitivity of DBA animals was increased in two tests while for A, BUB, C57BL and SS animals, only one test was affected.
(7) Using the BUB mouse as a representative of the 'high complement' mice, we assayed levels of the nine complement components, in an attempt to identify the cause of high complement activity.
(8) BUB mice had higher levels of most individual classical pathway components, except for C1, than the other two strains, but the difference was generally only 2-3-fold, so insufficient to fully explain the difference observed with tumor target cells.
(9) The increase in UTP levels and decrease in ATP levels seen in the livers of rats on a 1%-orotate diet were less marked in the livers of BUB- and DBA-strain mice on this diet.
(10) C3, C5, C6 and C7 activities were higher in BUB mice than in BDF1 mice, indicating that variation in these complement components is responsible for the difference in total complement activity.
(11) No difference in levels of C1, C2, C4, C8 or C9 was detected between BUB and BDF1 mice.
(12) A lothario kitty who has plenty of luck with the boys, Lil Bub could be a new leading lady – especially with those big green eyes.
(13) It is characterized by an impairment in spelling pronounceable pseudowords ('sild') and by an impairment in spelling real words related to their familiarity, length, and often, part of speech (Shallice, 1981; Roeltgen, 1985; Bub & Chertkow, 1988).
(14) In comparison with BUB mouse sera, M. hortulanus sera had at least four-fold higher levels of C3, C6, C8 and C9, and some or all of these differences may explain its higher total complement activity.
Fub
Definition:
(n.) Alt. of Fubs
(v. t.) To put off by trickery; to cheat.
Example Sentences:
(1) FUB 1 specifically recognises both native and denatured bovine carbonic anhydrase in ELISA assays.
(2) We reported a new monoclonal antibody, designated FUB-1, reacting with normal and neoplastic large lymphoid cells.
(3) In the normal lymphoid tissue, FUB-1 reacted with large lymphoid cells, but not with small or medium-sized lymphoid cells or plasma cells.
(4) FUB-1 also reacted with normal glandular epithelium and various adenocarcinomas.
(5) Carbonic anhydrase (CA) from mouse erythrocyte membranes is recognised as an autoantigen in Western blotting experiments with FUB 1, a murine IgM monoclonal antibody that binds both phosphatidylcholine and bromelain-treated mouse red blood cells (BrMRBC).
(6) The serological identity of the determinants of CA and BrMRBC was confirmed by specific absorption of both FUB 1 and LPS-serum with BrMRBC and normal mouse erythrocytes.
(7) Systematic examination of model-dependent predictions of changes in the hepatic extraction ratio (E), following alteration in the unbound fraction of drug in plasma (fub), should allow sensitive discrimination between the venous equilibrium model (model I) and the sinusoidal perfusion model (model II) of hepatic sinusoidal function if drugs which show high clearance of free drug are used.
(8) From SDS-PAGE, and blotting experiments with whole mouse erythrocytes, we found two closely spaced glycoprotein bands in the 30 kD region that reacted with both FUB 1 and LPS-serum.
(9) Conversely, data for phenytoin (E = 0.69 at fub = 1) failed to discriminate between models, as predicted by our analysis.
(10) Specifically, data related to diazepam (E = 0.95 at fub = 1) clearly conformed to the predictions of the sinusoidal perfusion model and differed markedly from those of the venous equilibrium model.
(11) The mutations, fub-1(b45) and fub-1(b126), were independently isolated from progeny of gamma-irradiated females.
(12) In fub-1 mutants, in which myofibrils are disorganized in all skeletal muscle cells, the MP appear and elongate normally, but ordered actin filament bundles are not seen.
(13) In addition, the FUB-1 antigen was not found in resting cells in the peripheral blood (PB), but it was induced on mononuclear cells of PB by addition of PWM or PMA.
(14) FUB-1 may be useful to investigate the mechanism of in vitro blastoid transformation or activation of lymphoid cells.
(15) These findings indicate that the FUB-1 antigen appears to be expressed on normal lymphoid cells during blastoid transformation and on neoplastic large lymphoid cells.
(16) FUB-1 was produced using a Burkitt's lymphoma cell line (HBL-5) as an immunogen.
(17) Carbonic anhydrases from a range of mammalian species were found to be crossreactive with FUB 1 and LPS-serum by Western blotting, whereas human glycophorin A and human asialoglycophorin were not recognised by the antibodies.
