Avipoxviruses, including Fowlpoxvirus(FPV) have been shown previously to infect mammalian cells but are unable to complete their replication cycle. Avipoxvirus based rabies and HIV vaccines have shown promise in preclinical studies. We have begun work to develop the FPV system for application to HPV CTL. We first constructed a new FPV insertion vector(Fig. 3) which facilitates production of recombinant viruses by co-insertion of the gpt marker gene under the control of a vaccinia virus 19K promoter.

Geotextile Silt Fences. Silt fences consist of fabrics placed vertically on posts to prevent sediment carrying sheet runoff from entering into downstream creeks or sewer systems. Since all construction activities must have an associated sedimentation and erosion control plan, this concept is rapidly growing and replacing bales of straw, hay, and other makeshift methods. The bottom of the silt fence is generally embedded in an anchoring ditch; the posts, to which the fabric is attached, are usually at 5-to 10-ft spacings; and sometimes a wire fencing is required as backing on the fabric to provide additional support. 4, record 12, English, - silt%20fence

The major problem with the discharge of pollutants in rivers is that a number of chemicals might not flush directly downstream but some might sediment parts of the river to be later resuspended and moved downstream. It can be hypothesized that streams are spiralling or cascading systems in which the retention in which the retention time and efficiency of resources utilization are maximized through control by specialized functional groups down the stream continuum.... spiralling is a beneficial mechanism in rivers since it helps to maintain an ecological balance in the stream following perturbations but it also helps to increase the damage made by uncontrolled spills of contaminants. 1, record 13, English, - spiralling
