Abstract In biosignal analysis, the utility of artificial neural networks (ANN) in classifying electromyographic (EMG) data trained with the momentum back propagation algorithm has recently been demonstrated. In the current…
Abstract Ten pesticides: aldicarb, aldicard sulfone, aldicarb oxide, carbofuran, propoxur, methomyl, diuron, linuron, alachlor and parathion-methyl, found as water pollutants in Cyprus, were evaluated for their genotoxicity potential with the…

Abstract We previously identified five delta-globin gene alleles associated with reduced hemoglobin (Hb) A2 (Trifillis, P., Ioannou, P., Schwartz, E., and Surrey, S. (1991) Blood 78, 3298-3305). We have now…
Abstract Mutations in the PKD1 gene on the short arm of chromosome 16 account for 85%-90% of polycystic kidney disease patients in the Caucasian population. After the recent characterization of…
Abstract During the past few years we have been testing the hypothesis that Cyprus may have been spared many severe cystic fibrosis (CF) cases but not cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance…
Abstract The expansion of the trinucleotide repeat (CGG)n in successive generations through maternal meiosis is the cause of fragile X syndrome. Analysis of CA repeat polymorphisms flanking the FMR-1 gene…
