The R engine was the Toyota engine used in the 1958 Toyota Crown, the first model to be exported to the United States. Road & Track was unimpressed with the engine on its introduction, noting that it idled quietly but was not capable of very high revolutions per minute.
A Transfusion transmitted infection (TTI) is a virus, parasite, or other potential pathogen that can be transmitted in donated blood through a transfusion to a recipient. The term is usually limited to known pathogens, but also sometimes includes agents such as Simian foamy virus which are not known to cause disease.he virus that causes AIDS is the best known of the transfusion-transmitted infections because of high-profile cases such as Ryan White, a hemophiliac who was infected through factor VIII, a blood-derived medicine used to treat the disease.
HIV is the human immunodeficiency virus. It is the virus that can lead to acquired immune deficiency syndrome, or AIDS. CDC estimates that about 56,000 people in the United States contracted HIV in 2006. This risk of transfusion-transmitted HIV is extremely remote due to the rigorous testing of the U.S. blood supply.
