Modeling dense inflorescences

2016

Showy inflorescences - clusters of flowers - are a common feature of many plants, greatly contributing to their beauty. The large numbers of individual flowers (florets), arranged in space in a systematic manner, make inflorescences a natural target for procedural modeling. We present a suite of biologically motivated algorithms for modeling and animating the development of inflorescences with closely packed florets. These inflorescences share the following characteristics: (i) in their ensemble, the florets form a relatively smooth, often approximately planar surface; (ii) there are numerous collisions between petals of the same or adjacent florets; and (iii) the developmental stage and ty…

Real-time polymerase chain reaction detection of Lichtheimia species in bandages associated with cutaneous mucormycosis in burn patients

2018

Summary Background Cutaneous mucormycoses, mainly due to Lichtheimia (Absidia), have occurred on several occasions in the Burn Unit of the University Hospital of Lille, France. Aim To investigate the potential vector role of non-sterile bandages used to hold in place sterile gauze used for wound dressing. Methods Mycological analysis by conventional culture, Mucorales real-time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR), and Lichtheimia species-specific qPCR were performed on eight crepe and six elasticized bandages that were sampled on two independent occasions in March 2014 and July 2016. Characteristics of the seven Lichtheimia mucormycoses which occurred in burn patients between November 2013 and…

Makro- un mikroelementu sastopamības variācijas mellenēs Vaccinium Myrtillus L.) un augsnē

2020

Darbā tika analizēts dzelzs, cinka, vara, kālija un fosfātjonu saturs mellenēs (Vaccinium myrtillus L.), krūmmellenēs (Vaccinium corymbosum) un to augsnē. Melleņu un augsnes paraugi tika ievākti meža teritorijā, kur tika mēslots ar vieglajiem koksnes pelniem. Krūmmelleņu ogu un augsnes paraugi tika ievākti privātmājas teritorijā, kur netika izmantots nekāds mēslojums. Veicot sauso mineralizāciju, ar liesmas atomabsorbciometrijas metodi noteikts dzelzs, cinka un vara saturs, fotometriski tika noteikts fosfātjonu saturs un ar liesmas fotometriju tika noteikts kālija saturs. Iegūtie rezultāti tika apstrādāti, izvērtēts noteikto elementu saturs mellenēs un krūmmellenēs, kā arī iegūtie rezultāti…

Triterpenoid saponins from Polycarpaea corymbosa Lamk. var. eriantha Hochst.

2013

Abstract Four triterpenoid saponins (1–4) were isolated from Polycarpaea corymbosa Lamk. var. eriantha Hochst along with the known apoanagallosaponin IV (5). Their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic data analysis. Among the compounds 1, 3–5 which were evaluated for their cytotoxicity against three tumor cell lines (SW480, DU145 and EMT6), compound 1 exhibited cytotoxicity with IC50 values ranging from 4.61 to 22.61 μM, which was greater than that of etoposide. Compound 2 was tested only against SW480 and a cardiomyoblast cell line (H9c2), and was inactive.

Cardopatine and isocardopatine, two novel cyclobutane substances from Cardopatium corymbosum

1978

Two new natural substances containing a cyclobutane unit, cardopatine and isocardopatine, the trans and cis isomers respectively of 5,5″ (cyclobut-1,2-ylene-diethynylene)bis 2,2′-bithiophene), together with the known α-terthienyl and 5-(but-3-en-1-ynyl)-2,2′-bithienyl, have been isolated from the roots of Cardopatium corymbosum. Evidence is given that the novel cyclobutane substances are not the products of a spontaneous dimerization of a bithienyl monomeric unit. Structure determination and conformational analysis are reported.

Zileņu (Vaccinium uliginosum L.), melleņu (Vaccinium myrtillus L.) un krūmelleņu (Vaccinium corymbosum) ķīmiskais sastāvs un bioloģiskā aktivitāte

2015

Zileņu Vaccinium uliginosum L. un melleņu Vaccinium myrtillus L. izplatība ir Eiropas ziemeļu augsto purvu un mitro mežu areālā, skuju koku un jaukto koku mežos, īpaši retainēs un izcirtumos, savukārt krūmellenes Vaccinium corymbosum tiek audzētas kā kultūraugi. Ķīmiskais sastāvs un bioloģiskā aktivitāte, kā arī dažādu vitamīnu un vielu saturs, ogās ir ļoti augsts. Zilās ogas potenciāli labvēlīgi iedarbojas uz cilvēku veselību gan kā profilakses līdzeklis, gan kā ārstniecības līdzeklis. Neskatoties uz zileņu labajām īpašībām, cilvēku vidū lielāku popularitāti ir ieguvušas mellenes un krūmmellenes, kura bieži tiek jauktas ar zileni, tāpēc Vaccinium uliginosum L. ir maz pētīta suga.
