Data Cleaning refers to the process of detecting and fixing errors in the data. Human involvement is instrumental at several stages of this process, e.g., to identify and repair errors, to validate computed repairs, etc. There is currently a plethora of data cleaning algorithms addressing a wide range of data errors (e.g., detecting duplicates, violations of integrity constraints, missing value...

Pharmaceutical product and active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) can be contaminated by other pharmaceutical products or APIs, by cleaning agents, by microorganisms or by other materials e.g. air borne particle, dust, lubricants, raw materials, intermediates. Mainly cleaning is performed to remove product and non-product contaminating material. Ineffective cleaning can lead to adulterated pr...

Microbial damages caused by biofilm forming bacteria in the dairy industry are a fundamental threat to safety and quality of dairy products. In order to ensure the optimal level of equipment hygiene in the dairy industry, it is necessary to determine the biofilm removal efficiency of cleaning agents used for cleaning-in-place (CIP) procedures. However, currently there is no standard method avai...

BACKGROUND In recent years, cleaning has been identified as an occupational risk because of an increased incidence of reported respiratory effects, such as asthma and asthma-like symptoms among cleaning workers. Due to the lack of systematic occupational hygiene analyses and workplace exposure data, it is not clear which cleaning-related exposures induce or aggravate asthma and other respirator...

In this work an integrated facility is proposed that produces methanol from switchgrass and uses the captured CO2 to enhance the production capacity by 50% via CO2 hydrogenation. The process consists of two sections, biomass processing to syngas and its conversion to methanol, and the electrolytic section where hydrogen is produced to hydrogenate the CO2 that has been captured during syngas cle...

Purpose. To carry out the surface water quality assessment of Southern Bug river basin and to investigate ability self-purify. Methods. Statistical calculations, system analysis. Results. The long-term dynamic integrated index values during 2000-2016 was heterogeneous, but general trend indicated a slight increase due sanitary-ecological pollution index. highest level observed in Khmelnytsky ci...

Methods VRE was detected in clinical specimen by standard procedures from 3 different patients on a hematology unit. At that time, an infection control program was implemented. It included VRE screening in stool and rectal samples from all patients hospitalized in the epidemic ward and carriage screening to detect unknown colonized patients (at hospital admission, weekly and at discharge). Othe...

improving cleaning and disinfection performance must be taken into account for prevention and control of infection. health care settings are engaged in a battle against healthcare associated infection (hais). the importance of infection prevention and control is increasing due to rapidly developing strains of multi-drug resistant organisms (mdros) that can result in serious illness and even dea...
