Suppression ofP. bergheiinfections but not those ofN. rodhainiorT. bruceiin mice on milk diet were noted. The suppression ofP. bergheiwas variable. This was not due to differences of the quality of the milk or to the mice eating faeces, sawdust, etc. which may be rich in PABA. The variability was at least partially due to selection of a strain of parasite probably requiring a lower level of PABA than normal. One such strain was isolated and its pattern of infection compared with the normal strain. The ‘milk diet’ strain caused a higher fatality rate in mice on milk diet but always showed a lower parasitaemia growth rate in mice on normal diet. When repassaged through mice on normal diet, the ‘milk diet’ strain did not revert immediately to the infection pattern of the normal strain.

Effect On Growth

The effects of sex and age of castration of males on growth rate, feed efficiency and carcass characteristics in bacon type swine were measured using 16 pigs each as gilts, entire boars, and boars castrated at birth, 6, 12, 16, and 20 weeks of age. Castration at 20 weeks was too late since some pigs reached 200 pounds live weight before that age. Boars consumed less feed daily than barrows and gilts, were thinner in loin fat, and yielded a higher percentage of shoulder than gilts. The carcasses of boars and gilts were longer, had less fat covering over the shoulder and back, a larger area of loin, and a higher iodine number than those castrated late. Acceptability tests showed that sex or age of castration did not affect the flavour, odour, or tenderness of the meat.Purebred breeders can delay castration for better selection of boars without any serious effect on growth, physical carcass characteristics, and feed requirements. Although the market discriminates against boars, it appears questionable whether castration is necessary when boars are slaughtered at 200 pounds before they reach the age of 150 days.

In 1965 performance testing was initiated in Finland for the selection of boars for A.I. use. In 1965—68 a total of 147 boars were tested on four local testing stations. The following average results were recorded: backfat thickness 21.6 mm (at a live weight of 88 kg), growth rate 699 g/day, feed efficiency 2.69 scand. fu/kg growth and testing score (growth + fat) 99.6. The average testing score for boards selected for A.I. use (43 % of tested) was 99.7. Weakness of the legs was noted in 21 % of the boars. The varying initial weights of the male piglets influenced the growth rate very markedly (P < 0.001), and the effect of the initial age was significant with respect to feed efficiency (P < 0.01). The influence of the weight and age at end of test was highly significant with regard to thickness of fat (P < 0.001). Moreover, the weight at end of test affected the testing score significantly (P < 0.001), but the effect of age was eliminated by use of correction factors. The years as well as the testing stations influenced most of the results in a significant manner. The thickness of fat for the Yorkshire boars was significantly greater (P < 0.01) than for the Landrace boars and the former also had a significantly lower testing score. The effect of the genetic variation, influence of sires within breeds, was highly significant (P < 0.001) for all test results. It has thus proved possible to estimate the genetic quality of the boars. The different influences on the test results were analyzed by least squares procedures.

A good selection of growth parameters (in-situ etching, C/Si ratio, growth rate) enables obtaining of ~1nm high steps of epitaxial layers, which are comparable to the size of an elementary cell (8°off-axis) and achieve the density of BPD=8•103/cm2. Due to crystallization on substrates with low misorientation (<2°off-axis) it is possible to obtain epitaxial layers substantially lacking in BPD dislocations. However, a slightly more developed surface with Ra=1-2.5nm (1.25°, 2°off-axis) characterizes these layers. By lowering the C/Si ratio, morphology of layers crystallized on substrates with low misorientation was improved. Extending growth rate improved both the crystallographic quality of the grown layers and their polytype stability. Nevertheless, growth without BPDs, also referred to as the homogeneous (4H) polytypic growth on 4H-SiC on-axis substrates, is the most efficient way of defect elimination.

The article discusses the reasonsfor an expert to participate in legal proceedings. The gnoseological reason for that consists of the bad quality of materials subject to examination that renders the examination either completely impossible or compromises objective, reasoned and reliable assessment of the findings. The procedural reason consists ofa proscription for an expert to collect evidence himself or herself. The author investigates into the ways of how an expert can participate in legal proceedings. If the defense invites an expert to participate in the proceedings, then it is recommended that his or her involvement should be in the presence of attesting witnesses and recorded in the protocol. In the course of the legal proceedings an expert has the following tasks: adding initial data, acquiring new initial data, understanding the situation of the incident, acquiring new objects to be studied, including samples for examination. An expert’s participation in legal proceedings differs from the participation of a specialist or an examination on the scene of the incident. The author describes the tasks that an expert solves in the course of legal proceedings, the peculiarities ofan investigation experiment practices, the selection of samples for an examination, inspection, interrogation.

Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) is a telecommunications technology that is able to pass the communication service in Internet Protocol networks so as to allow communicating between users in an IP network. However VoIP technology still has weakness in the Quality of Service (QoS). VOPI weaknesses is affected by the selection of the physical servers used. In this research, VoIP is configured on Linux operating system with Asterisk as VoIP application server and integrated on a Raspberry Pi by using wired and wireless network as the transmission medium. Because of depletion of IPv4 capacity that can be used on the network, it needs to be applied to VoIP system using the IPv6 network protocol with supports devices. The test results by using a wired transmission medium that has obtained are the average delay is 117.851 ms, jitter is 5.796 ms, packet loss is 0.38%, throughput is 962.861 kbps, 8.33% of CPU usage and 59.33% of memory usage. The analysis shows that the wired transmission media is better than the wireless transmission media and wireless-wired.

The construction and selection of a suitable bijective function, that is, substitution, is now becoming an important applied task, particularly for building block encryption systems. Many articles have suggested using different approaches to determining the quality of substitution, but most of them are highly computationally complex. The solution of this problem will significantly expand the range of methods for constructing and analyzing scheme in information protection systems. The purpose of research is to find easily measurable characteristics of substitutions, allowing to evaluate their quality, and also measures of the proximity of a particular substitutions to a random one, or its distance from it. For this purpose, several characteristics were proposed in this work: difference and polynomial, and their mathematical expectation was found, as well as variance for the difference characteristic. This allows us to make a conclusion about its quality by comparing the result of calculating the characteristic for a particular substitution with the calculated mathematical expectation. From a computational point of view, the thesises of the article are of exceptional interest due to the simplicity of the algorithm for quantifying the quality of bijective function substitutions. By its nature, the operation of calculating the difference characteristic carries out a simple summation of integer terms in a fixed and small range. Such an operation, both in the modern and in the prospective element base, is embedded in the logic of a wide range of functional elements, especially when implementing computational actions in the optical range, or on other carriers related to the field of nanotechnology.
