CA Duncan, JJ Jachetta, ML Brown, VF Carrithers… - Weed Technology, 2004 - JSTOR
… Economic data were not available for Canada thistle on range or wildland sites, but these
sites serve as a reservoir for invasion of cropland where impacts are documented. Weed …

Metabolic disposition studies on simvastatin, a cholesterol-lowering prodrug.

S Vickers, CA Duncan, IWU Chen, A Rosegay… - Drug Metabolism and …, 1990 - ASPET
The biosynthesis of cholesterol is mainly regulated by 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme
A (HMG-CoA) reductase. Because the liver is the major site of cholesterol synthesis, it is the …

[HTML][HTML] Tight bounds on maximal and maximum matchings

T Biedl, ED Demaine, CA Duncan, R Fleischer… - Discrete …, 2004 - Elsevier
In this paper, we study lower bounds on the size of maximal and maximum matchings in 3-connected
planar graphs and graphs with bounded maximum degree. For each class, we give …

Measuring distance between unordered sets of different sizes

A Gardner, J Kanno, CA Duncan… - Proceedings of the …, 2014 - openaccess.thecvf.com
We present a distance metric based upon the notion of minimum-cost injective mappings
between sets. Our function satisfies metric properties as long as the cost of the minimum …

The physiological disposition of lovastatin.

…, IW Chen, WF Bayne, RA Halpin, CA Duncan… - Drug metabolism and …, 1989 - ASPET
Lovastatin is a pro-drug lactone whose open chain beta-hydroxy-acid (HA) is a potent inhibitor
of hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA-reductase and thus of cholesterol synthesis. Because the …
