Climate change, limited fossil resources and steady population growth drive industrial development of sustainable biomass based processes for production of fuels, platform and specialty chemicals. In this context phototrophic microalgae cultivation processes are poised to play a central role for development of next generation bioprocesses due to high cellular growth rates and excellent yields o...

The US DOE Joint Genome Institute (JGI) sequences microbial and metagenomic projects through three main programs: DOE Microbial Genome Program (MGP), JGI Community Sequencing Program (CSP) and DOE Genomes to Life Program (GTL). The principle goal of the MGP is to fund sequencing projects related to DOE interests, the principle goal of the CSP is to fund sequencing projects from a broad range of...

We incorporate all existing solar neutrino flux measurements and take solar model flux uncertainties into account in deriving global fits to parameter space for the MSW and vacuum solutions of the solar neutrino problem.

The paper considers a sequential Design Of Experiments (DOE) scheme. Our objective is to maximize both information and economic measures over a feasible set of experiments. Optimal DOE strategies are developed by introducing information criteria based on measures adopted from information theory. The evolution of acquired information along various stages of experimentation is analyzed for linear...

The Clostridia are a diverse group of gram-positive, rod-shaped anaerobes that include several toxin-producing pathogens (notably C. difSiciZe, C. botulinum, C. tetuni, and C. perfringens) and a large number of terrestrial species that produce acetone, butanol, ethanol, isopropanol, and organic acids through fermentation of a variety of carbon ~ o u r c e s ~ ~ . Isolates of C. ucetobutylicum w...

Kaluza-Klein sphere reductions of supergravities that admit AdS×Sphere vacuum solutions are believed to be consistent. The examples include the S4 and S7 reductions of eleven-dimensional supergravity, and the S5 reduction of ten-dimensional type IIB supergravity. In this paper we provide evidence that sphere reductions of supergravities that admit instead Domain-wall×Sphere vacuum solutions are...

The projection lens is the core component of DMD-based maskless lithography and its imaging quality directly affects transferal exposure pattern. Based on traditional system, we have designed diffractive optical element (DOE) aspheric surfaces to optimize refractive/diffractive hybrid system improve quality. We found that best effect obtained when DOE very close front group before diaphragm sys...

Background and Objectives: To compare the efficacy of three surgical methods in tonsillectomy patients; combination monopolar bipolar diathermy (diathermy), coblation dissection using Evac (coblation), Harmonic scalpel assisted (harmonic). Materials Methods: Ninety-seven patients underwent a single institute between January 2020 May 2021. Postoperative pain was evaluated visual analogue scale (...
