Enzymatic Determination Of Glycerol Contents In Biological Samples Using The Biomek 4000 Laboratory Automation Workstation

Glycerol is an important platform chemical and also serves as feedstock for a broad range of bioprocesses. Yeast strains are known to produce glycerol under certain conditions. We intended to identify yeast strains with improved capacity to produce glycerol from renewable feedstocks. As even small improvements in glycerol formation have a strong commercial impact, we took special care of precis...

A Neural Network Based Workstation for Automated Cell Proliferation Analysis

In this paper is reported the development of a neural network (NN) based workstation for automated cell proliferation analysis, of cytological microscope images. The software of the system assists the expert biotechnologist during cell proliferation and chromosome aberration studies by automatically identifying metaphase spreads and stimulated nuclei on each digital image. After manual edition ...

CryptoNET: Integrated Secure Workstation

In most of the current applications security is usually provided individually. This means that various applications use their own security mechanisms and services, applied only to their own resources and functions. Furthermore, procedures to configure security parameters are usually inconvenient and complicated for non-technical users. As an alternative to this approach, we have designed and im...

Laparoscopic Telesurgical Workstation

Robotic telesurgery is a promising application of robotics to medicine, aiming to enhance the dexterity and sensation of minimally invasive surgery through millimeter-scale manipulators under control of the surgeon. With appropriate communication links, it would also be possible to perform remote surgery for care in rural areas where specialty care is unavailable, or to provide emergency care e...
