(1) In work to determine whether X-radiation could be used to induce tumors of the colon in outbred Holtzman rats, a technique was devised so that only the descending colon could be irradiated with a collimated X-ray beam and tumorigenic exposures in the kilo-Roentgen range were delivered.
(2) In addition, livestock-rearing can use up to 200 times more water a kilogram of meat compared to a kilo of grain.
(3) Kadyrov also gave the happy couple an unusual wedding present – "a five kilo lump of gold".
(4) The lyam-1 gene spans greater than 30 kilo base pairs of DNA and is composed of at least 10 exons.
(5) Every kilo of conventionally produced meat requires 4kg-10kg of feed, whereas cultured meat significantly increases efficiency by using only 2kg of feed.
(6) "Fisherwomen, who before in a week would get 20 to 30 kilos of shellfish, now take a whole week to get 2 or 3 kilos," says De Alcántara, sitting on a folding metal chair in a dusty meeting hall.
(7) Dr Carol Kerven counts the human cost: goat herders in Inner Mongolia are shortchanged, selling their goat hair for as little as $2.30 a kilo.
(8) The single mRNA transcript corresponding to rPLP-A is 1 kilo-base in length and first appears at Day 14 of pregnancy, 2 days later than rPLII mRNA, and then increases and remains at high levels until term.
(9) There’s at least a kilo to come out, probably more.
(10) In ergometric studies, a significant difference was also noted in the following parameters: total time of exercise, burden in kilos, systolic and diastolic blood pressure and the underlevel of ST.
(11) I can't get any milk for the children except if someone falls ill, then I have to buy a kilo of milk for 1,200 Syrian pounds [£5].
(12) The length of these intervals may correspond to unmethylated sections of chromosomal DNA of about 23 to 58 kilo base pairs.
(13) Rice is a water-intensive crop; it takes more than 2,500 litres of water to produce one kilo (pdf).
(14) The cDNA insert of approximately 2.2 kilo base pairs was excised and subcloned into plasmid pUC8.
(15) Run on Brazil's popular self-service, per-kilo model, the buffet features a fine variety of savoury, salad and vegetable dishes, as well as a coffee counter, where you can polish off an espresso and a slice of cake before ducking in to one of the exhibitions elsewhere in this tall building.
(16) Autopsies on four of the horses found no evidence of disease and tests revealed caesium levels at 200 becquerels per kilo – twice as high as the government-set safety limit for agricultural produce, but not high enough to immediately threaten their health.
(17) The RPE-CM was fractionated into three fractions; molecular weight of more than 30 kilo Daltons (kDa) (30 kDa fraction), between 10 and 30 kDa (10 kDa-30 kDa fraction), and less than 10 kDa (10 kDa fraction).
(18) A convenient method of interstitial radiation therapy can be quickly and easily accomplished using absorbable Vicryl-125I sutures which offer these general advantages: long shelf life, 60 day half-life; low energy, 28 kilo electron volts, permitting patients to leave the hospital; good geometric and anatomic distribution of 125I seeds which remain in place after implantation; less radiation exposure to the operating and attending personnel due to this low energy plus the reduced exposure time provided by quick implantation; removal unnecessary, reducing exposure time; implantation using minor surgical equipment; dosage determination easily calculated; hospitalization, from the standpoint of radioactivity, unnecessary.
(19) How to donate Human Appeal UK-based charity Human Appeal has delivered more than 10.3m kilos of flour across Syria, feeding more than 10 million people.
(20) It's a slightly different approach than Rio's ubiquitous "kilo" joints, where diners fill up their plates and pay by weight.
