P-229: Chromosomal Analysis of Parthenogenetic Mouse Embryos Generated from In Vitro Activated Oocytes by Hydrostatic Pressure and Ethanol and Cytochalasin B

Background: Studies of preimplantation stage embryos by classic cytogenetic techniques have limitations, starting with the need for good metaphase stage when only one third of all analyzed embryos may show good quality metaphases. The incidence of chromosome anomalies in embryos produced by in vitro procedures is generally higher than that of embryos formed in vivo. Pressure specifically affect...

Loss of Load Expectation Assessment in Deregulated Power Systems Using Monte Carlo Simulation and Intelligent Systems

Deregulation policy has caused some changes in the concepts of power systems reliability assessment and enhancement. In this paper, generation reliability is considered, and a method for its assessment using intelligent systems is proposed. Also, because of power market and generators’ forced outages stochastic behavior, Monte Carlo Simulation is used for reliability evaluation. Generation r...
