A mobile Deaf-to-hearing communication aid for medical diagnosis
(Telkom, 2010)
This paper describes how a deaf to hearing communication aid built for a mobile phone can be used to provide semi-synchronous communication between a Deaf person and a hearing person who cannot sign. Deaf people with access ...
Human coronavirus NL63 open reading frame 3 encodes a virion-incorporated N-glycosylated membrane protein
(BioMed Central, 2010)
Background: Human pathogenic coronavirus NL63 (hCoV-NL63) is a group 1 (alpha) coronavirus commonly
associated with respiratory tract infections. In addition to known non-structural and structural proteins all
coronaviruses ...
HE 0230−4323 revisited: a new rapidly pulsating sdB star
(Oxford University Press, 2010)
HE 0230−4323 is a hot sdB star in a binary system. An earlier work demonstrated that the
light curve of the system shows a strong (∼4 per cent) reflection effect and also appears to
exhibit photometric variations of the ...
Genome-wide SNP identification by high-throughput sequencing and selective mapping allows sequence assembly positioning using a framework genetic linkage map
(BioMed Central, 2010)
Determining the position and order of contigs and scaffolds from a genome assembly within an organism’s genome remains a technical challenge in a majority of sequencing projects. In order to exploit contemporary technologies ...

Simulation of Y-chromosomal haplotype data
(Elsevier, 2010)
The non-recombining nature of the Y-chromosome determines the non-independence of alleles between
loci. The evolution of short tandem repeat (STR) loci in the Y-chromosome is the result of different factors
such as ...
The “four sigma” limit for significant periodicities
(Springer Verlag, 2010)
Most of the pulsations which have been observed
in sdB stars have very low amplitudes. Detection of modes
from photometric observations is usually performed by noting
the most prominent peaks in a periodogram or, ...
Risk factors of preterm delivery of low birth weight (plbw) in an African population
(Academic Journals, 2010)
More than 20 million infants in the world (15.5% of all births) are born with low birth weight. Ninety-five
percent of them are in developing countries. The objective of this study was to examine different factors
which ...
PG 0907+123 and JL 194: slowly pulsating hot subdwarf stars
(Oxford University Press, 2010)
Multicolour time-series photometry of two newly discovered slowly pulsating sdB stars
(V1093 Her stars, also known as PG 1716 stars) is described. Both stars are fairly bright
and appear, from the limited amount of data, ...
Investigating changes over time of annual rainfall in Zimbabwe
(Copernicus Publications, 2010)
There is increasing concern in southern Africa
about the possible decline of rainfall as a result of global
warming. Some studies concluded that average rainfall in
Zimbabwe had declined by 10% or 100 mm during the ...
