Cinchona officinalis （Rubiaceae） is an endemic species of the Loja Valley in southern Ecuador with medicinal uses. Because of over-exploitation in the nine- teenth century and more recent disturbances to its ecosystem, C. officinalis populations are threatened. Currently, natural regeneration of the populations is low, despite its high plant regeneration and seed formation capacity. In the present study, an efficient protocol for germination, shoot proliferation and plantlets regeneration was developed for this species. Phenolic content and germination rate of C. officinalis seeds were compared with a control species, C. pubescens. Nodal segments from seedlings of C. officinalis were cultured on Gamborg medium supplemented with different combinations of plant growth regulators. Because the phenol content is high in C. officinalis, the phenolic should be removed with hydrogen peroxide or water washes to stimulate germination. Shoots and callus developed from nodal segments within 45 days using most of the tested combinations of plant growth regulators. The best rates of shoot proliferation, callus formation and adventitious buds were obtained in medium supplemented with 5.0 mg L^-1 6-benzyl-aminopurine and 3.0 mg L^-1 indole- 3-butyfic acid.

Despite organ transplantation being the most successful treatment for end-stage organ dysfunction,the number of annual solid organ transplantations is much lower than that required to satisfy the demand of patients on waiting *** explanation for this phenomenon is the relative scarcity of non-living organ donors due to several factors,such as:(1)Late arrival of patients with a neurocritical condition to an emergency service;(2)lack of detection of those patients as possible organ donors by health professionals dedicated to procurement or by clinicians at emergency and intensive care units,for instance;(3)late transfer of the patient to an intensive care unit to try to recover their health and to provide hemodynamic,ventilatory,and metabolic support;(4)lack of confirmation of the physiological status of the possible donor;(5)late or incorrect positive diagnosis of the subject’s death,either due to brain or cardiac death;(6)difficulty in obtaining legal authorization,either by direct relatives or by the authority,for the extraction of organs;and(7)deficient retrieval surgery of the organs actually *** recent reports of relatively successful xenotransplants from genetically modified pigs open the possibility to fix this mismatch between supply and demand,but some technical(organ rejection and opportunistic infections),and economic issues,still remain before accepting a progressive replacement of the organ sources for *** approximate economic cost analysis suggests that the hypothetical acquisition cost of any genetically modified pig derived organ is high and would not even satisfy the solid organ demand of the wealthiest countries.

In this paper, a novel bionic model and its performance in pattern recognition are presented and discussed. The model is constructed from a bulb model and a three-layered cortical model, mimicking the main features of the olfactory system. The olfactory bulb and cortex models are connected by feedforward and feedback fibers with distributed delays. The Breast Cancer Wisconsin dataset consisting of data from 683 patients divided into benign and malignant classes is used to demonstrate the capacity of the model to learn and recognize patterns, even when these are deformed versions of the originally learned patterns. The performance of the novel model was compared with three artificial neural networks (ANNs), a back-propagation network, a support vector machine classifier, and a radial basis function classifier. All the ANNs and the olfactory bionic model were tested in a benchmark study of a standard dataset. Experimental results show that the bionic olfactory system model can learn and classify patterns based on a small training set and a few learning trials to reflect biological intelligence to some extent.
