In delay tolerant Short Sleeve T-Shirts network (DTN), an end-to-end path is not guaranteed and packets are delivered from a source node to a destination node via store-carry-forward based routing.In DTN, a source node or an intermediate node stores packets in buffer and carries them while it moves around.These packets are forwarded to other nodes

African green monkeys were fed Red Sonja diets containing either 11% (by weight) fish oil or lard for 2.5 yr.To test the hypothesis that fish oil decreases hepatic secretion of triglyceride (TG) and apoB, livers from these animals were perfused with a fatty acid mixture [85% (w/w) oleate containing [14C]oleate and 15% n-3 containing [3H]eicosapenta
