Aging: A Theory Based on Free Radical and Radiation Chemistry
The phenomenon of growth, decline and death—aging—has been the source of considerable speculation (1, 8, 10). This cycle seems to be a more or less direct function of the metabo...

Time, clocks, and the ordering of events in a distributed system
The concept of one event happening before another in a distributed system is examined, and is shown to define a partial ordering of the events. A distributed algorithm is given ...
Ecological and Evolutionary Responses to Recent Climate Change
Ecological changes in the phenology and distribution of plants and animals are occurring in all well-studied marine, freshwater, and terrestrial groups. These observed changes a...
Evaluation of general 16S ribosomal RNA gene PCR primers for classical and next-generation sequencing-based diversity studies
16S ribosomal RNA gene (rDNA) amplicon analysis remains the standard approach for the cultivation-independent investigation of microbial diversity. The accuracy of these analyse...
Phylogenetic identification and in situ detection of individual microbial cells without cultivation
The frequent discrepancy between direct microscopic counts and numbers of culturable bacteria from environmental samples is just one of several indications that we currently kno...
Escherichia coli and Salmonella :cellular and molecular biology
Preface The Enteric Bacterial Cell and the Age of Bacteria Variations on a Theme by Escherichia Part I: Molecular Architecture and Assembly of Cell Parts (11 chapters) Part II: ...
Emotion Circuits in the Brain
The field of neuroscience has, after a long period of looking the other way, again embraced emotion as an important research area. Much of the progress has come from studies of ...
UniFrac: a New Phylogenetic Method for Comparing Microbial Communities
ABSTRACT We introduce here a new method for computing differences between microbial communities based on phylogenetic information. This method, UniFrac, measures the phylogeneti...
Interpreting chromosomal DNA restriction patterns produced by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis: criteria for bacterial strain typing
FRED C. TENOVER,* ROBERT D. ARBEIT, RICHARD V. GOERING, PATRICIA A. MICKELSEN, BARBARA E. MURRAY, DAVID H. PERSING, AND BALA SWAMINATHAN National Center for Infectious Diseases,...
Network Flows: Theory, Algorithms, and Applications.
A comprehensive introduction to network flows that brings together the classic and the contemporary aspects of the field, and provides an integrative view of theory, algorithms,...
Optical Coherence and Quantum Optics
This book presents a systematic account of optical coherence theory within the framework of classical optics, as applied to such topics as radiation from sources of different st...
