Distillers grains with solubles (DGS) and corn gluten feed (CGF) are the major byproducts of ethanol production fed to cattle. Both DGS and CGF can be fed wet or dried with animal performance usually similar when fed as wet or dried products; however, some research results favored the wet products. Cattle diets can contain DGS or CGF as replacements for portions of both concentrates and forages...

This article sets out to summarise the research that has investigated the use of dynamic geometry software (DGS) in the teaching and learning of mathematics. This review is not intended to be exhaustive, rather the re s e a rch is categorised under three main headings: interacting with the software, designing teaching activities and learning to prove. Overall, the research has found that DGS ca...

This paper presents a decentralized control method for distributed generations (DGs) in an islanded direct current (DC) microgrid. In most typical DC microgrids, a decentralized control method is based on a voltage droop control method. However, the grid voltage differs from node to node due to line voltage drop, and hence the power sharing ratio among DGs cannot be matched with as desired valu...

OBJECTIVE In a previous study, we assembled a multidisciplinary Canadian panel and identified 37 International Classification of Diseases-10-Canada Diagnosis Groups (DGs) for which emergency department (ED) management may potentially reduce mortality (emergency-sensitive conditions). Before using these 37 DGs to calculate a hospital standardized mortality ratio (HSMR) specific to emergency care...

Optimal power flow (OPF) study is conducted on a power system to achieve one of the following objectives: cost/loss minimization or available transfer capability (ATC) calculation in a deregulated environment. Distributed generation (DG) is a small source of electric power conversion from nonconventional energy sources and Hybrid DGs which often the most cost-effective and reliable way to produ...

Velo-cardio-facial syndrome/DiGeorge syndrome (VCFS/DGS) is a congenital anomaly disorder associated with hemizygous 22q11 deletions. We previously showed that bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) transgenic mice overexpressing four transgenes, PNUTL1, (CDCrel-1), GP1B beta, TBX1 and WDR14, had reduced viability, cardiovascular malformations and thymus gland hypoplasia. Since these are hallmar...

We report on a prenatal diagnosis by FISH of a familial 22q11 deletion associated with DiGeorge syndrome (DGS). The deletion was seen in the proband with symptoms of full DGS, in the physically normal father, and in a subsequent pregnancy. After birth this child showed hypocalcaemia, a T cell deficit, and a right sided aortic arch.

The objectives of this study were to determine the interaction of feeding dry (DDGS) or modified wet (MDGS) distillers grains with solubles (DGS) with or without supplemental CaO on in situ DM and NDF disappearance; ruminal pH, VFA, and methane concentration; and cellulase and xylanase activity. Fistulated steers (n = 8; average initial BW = 540 ± 250 kg) were used in a replicated 4 × 4 Latin s...

Searching for good discriminative gene sets (DGSs) in microarray data is important for many problems, such as precise cancer diagnosis, correct treatment selection, and drug discovery. Small and good DGSs can help researchers eliminate “irrelavent” genes and focus on “critical” genes that may be used as biomarkers or that are related to the development of cancers. In addition, small DGSs will n...
