E-apmācības aplikāciju izmantošana vācu valodas stundās vidusskolās

2020

Bakalaura darbā tiek aplūkota vidusskolas skolēnu motivācija mācīties vācu valodu, kā arī E-Learning aplikāciju izmantošana valodas apgūšanai. Darba mērķis ir ar aptaujas palīdzību noskaidrot, vai vidusskolas skolēni izmanto kādu no E-Learning aplikācijām, lai mācītos vācu valodu. Aptaujā piedalījās 33 skolēni no Salaspils 2. vidusskolas un Rīgas 13. vidusskolas. No iegūtajiem rezultātiem tika secināts, ka vidusskolas skolēni ir motivēti mācīties vācu valodu un uzskata, ka tā būtu vajadzīga nākotnē darbā, ceļojumos vai izglītībā. Darba hipotēze netika apstiprināta.

A combined measles, mumps, rubella and varicella vaccine (Priorix-Tetra: immunogenicity and safety profile

2009

Abstract Priorix-Tetra ™ (GlaxoSmithKline Biologicals) is a combined measles, mumps, rubella and varicella (MMRV) vaccine. Eight studies involving more than 3000 children were reviewed. Compared with co-administration of MMR ( Priorix ™) and varicella ( Varilrix ™) vaccines, the MMRV vaccine showed: similar immunogenicity, with immunity shown up to 3 years post-vaccination; a higher rate of fever after the first dose; a slight increase in mild local reactions after the second dose. This MMRV vaccine can be used either as a two-dose vaccine or as a second dose in children primed with separate MMR and/or varicella vaccines, offering a convenient way to introduce varicella vaccination into rou…

Dryland vegetation pattern dynamics driven by inertial effects and secondary seed dispersal

2022

This manuscript tackles the study of vegetation pattern dynamics driven by inertial effects and secondary seed dispersal. To achieve this goal, an hyperbolic extension of the classical parabolic Klausmeier model of vegetation, generally used to predict the formation of banded vegetation along the slopes of semiarid environments, has been here considered together with an additional advective term mimicking the downslope motion of seeds. Linear stability analyses have been carried out to inspect the dependence of the wave instability locus on the model parameters, with particular emphasis on the role played by inertial time and seed advection speed. Moreover, periodic travelling wave solution…

Highly transitive actions of groups acting on trees

2015

We show that a group acting on a non-trivial tree with finite edge stabilizers and icc vertex stabilizers admits a faithful and highly transitive action on an infinite countable set. This result is actually true for infinite vertex stabilizers and some more general, finite of infinite, edge stabilizers that we call highly core-free. We study the notion of highly core-free subgroups and give some examples. In the case of amalgamated free products over highly core-free subgroups and HNN extensions with highly core-free base groups we obtain a genericity result for faithful and highly transitive actions. In particular, we recover the result of D. Kitroser stating that the fundamental group of …

Calcium-dependent conformational changes of membrane-bound Ebola fusion peptide drive vesicle fusion

2003

AbstractThe fusogenic subdomain of the Ebola virus envelope glycoprotein is an internal sequence located ca. 20 residues downstream the N-terminus of the glycoprotein transmembrane subunit. Partitioning of the Ebola fusion peptide into membranes containing phosphatidylinositol in the absence of Ca2+ stabilizes an α-helical conformation, and gives rise to vesicle efflux but not vesicle fusion. In the presence of millimolar Ca2+ the membrane-bound peptide adopts an extended β-structure, and induces inter-vesicle mixing of lipids. The peptide conformational polymorphism may be related to the flexibility of the virus–cell intermembrane fusogenic complex.

A posteriori error estimates for Webster's equation in wave propagation

2015

We consider a generalised Webster’s equation for describing wave propagation in curved tubular structures such as variable diameter acoustic wave guides. Webster’s equation in generalised form has been rigorously derived in a previous article starting from the wave equation, and it approximates cross-sectional averages of the propagating wave. Here, the approximation error is estimated by an a posteriori technique. peerReviewed

Booster vaccination after neonatal priming with acellular pertussis vaccine.

2010

After a birth dose of acellular pertussis (aP) and diphtheria (DT)aP-hepatitis B virus (HBV)-inactivated polio vaccine (IPV)/ Haemophilus influenza type b (Hib) at 2, 4, and 6 months, a booster dose of DTaP-HBV-IPV/Hib at 12 to 23 months induced strong anti-pertussis booster responses. Thus, neonatal aP priming did not lead to immune tolerance to pertussis antigens. However, it elicited bystander interference on HBV, Hib, and diphtheria responses.

Effects of postharvest partial dehydration and prolonged treatments with ethylene on transcript profiling in skins of wine grape berries.

2010

For certain food products, postharvest controlled stresses or treatments with specific elicitors are applied to induce desired physical/chemical changes and/or to positively affect phytochemical content. This is the case of wine grapes where both strategies, singularly applied or coupled, can be used to modulate berry composition and, as a consequence, affect wine quality traits. Since the knowledge of the effects of these postharvest treatments on berry metabolism and the regulation of gene expression is very limited, a large-scale transcriptome analysis has been carried out, using an oligo-based microarray (14,562 probes) on skins of wine grape (Vitis vinifera L.) berries subjected to deh…

PARTNERSHIP BETWEEN TEACHER AND SECONDARY SCHOOL STUDENT THROUGH LEARNING MATHEMATICS

2016

This article examines secondary school student and teachers cooperation through learning mathematics. The aim of the study is to find out whether the teacher and student cooperation is a partnership. The partnership is viewed as a cooperation where involved work toward mutual goals. Secondary school student - teacher partnership is possible if the teacher trusts students and together with them chooses the learning objectives, the teaching aids and methods of learning. Students take responsibility for their choices and they are motivated to accomplish them if there is possibility to make a choice. The article deals with teachers' views on teaching and students' opinions about what helps and …
