many cell lines, when cultured under proper conditions, can form three dimensionalstructures called multicellular spheroids. these spheroids resemble in vivo tumor models in severalaspects. therefore, studying growth characteristics and behavior of spheroids is beneficial inunderstanding the behavior of tumors under various experimental conditions. in this work, we havestudied the growth proper...

At the level of the cochlear nucleus (CN), the auditory pathway divides into several parallel circuits, each of which provides a different representation of the acoustic signal. Here, the representation of the power spectrum of an acoustic signal is analyzed for two CN principal cells-chopper neurons of the ventral CN and type IV neurons of the dorsal CN. The analysis is based on a weighting fu...

Single-unit responses to infinitely iterated rippled noise and wideband noise were recorded from the cochlear nucleus of anesthetized chinchillas. Rippled noises had a fixed delay of 4 ms, and spectral depth was varied by attenuating the delayed version of the noise. Temporal discharge patterns were analyzed using neural autocorrelograms, and responses to rippled noises were compared to wideban...

Owing to the increasing demand in the urban areas for new technologies such as heat pumps and electric vehicles (EVs), greater power capacity in low voltage (LV) distribution networks is becoming increasingly important. This study will investigate how to improve the power capacity through the implementation of point of use voltage regulation (PUVR). PUVR relies on a power electronics converter ...

OBJECTIVE To determine the operative advantage in terms of minimizing the complications following conventional phaco surgery with dual infusion through irrigating chopper. METHODS A Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial (RCCT) was conducted in the Ophthalmology Unit-III, Sindh Government Lyari General Hospital and DUHS and Al-Noor Eye Hospital Karachi, from March 2008 to February 2009. A total...

Salah satu teknologi tepat guna sangat dibutuhkan oleh konsumen adalah mesin pengolah makanan seperti irisan ubi terutama untuk meningkatkan kualitas produksi dan hasil. Pada tahapan penelitian ini, terlebih dahulu akan dilakukan uji analisis struktur menggunakan metode finite element, selanjutnya tahap manufaktur pengujian. pengujian nanti diuji sebanyak lima kali, masing-masing diambil sampel...

We report here the draft genome sequences ofKocuria salsiciaG1 andKocuria rhizophilaG2, which were isolated from a meat chopper at a small slaughterhouse in Denmark. The two annotated genomes are 2.99 Mb and 2.88 Mb in size, respectively.

We report here the first draft genome sequence ofKocuria variansG6, which was isolated from a meat chopper at a small slaughterhouse in Denmark. The 2.90-Mb genome sequence consists of 95 contigs and contains 2,518 predicted protein-coding genes.
