PURPOSE This study was conducted in order to determine the occurrence of esp and biofilm formation among Enterococcus faecalis causing mastitis isolated from different bovine and environmental origins. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 41 E. faecalis isolates were obtained from clinical mastitis before antibiotic therapy, subclinical mastitis, dried manure bedding samples, and postpartum milk ...

Together with great proliferation of online resources on the one hand and a striking lack of commercially published materials for specific ESP domains on the other, the ESP teacher needs to reflect on using Internet materials judiciously in the language classroom. An indispensable element of the teaching process in any context is effective resourcing, or the ability to find, evaluate and use re...

The reduction of SO2 and PM for marine engines was investigated using the electrostatic precipitator (ESP) with the heat exchanger. The experiments were carried out to reduce SO2 due to condensation of water in the exhausted gas. The experimental system consists of the diesel engine, the heat exchanger and the ESP. The exhausted gas at 180 o C of the temperature is cooled to 20 o C, and generat...

We propose a method called Rule-based ESP (RESP) for utilizing prior knowledge evolving Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs). First, KBANN-like techniques are used to transform a set of rules into an ANN, then the ANN is trained using the Enforced Subpopulations (ESP) neuroevolution method. Empirical results in the Prey Capture domain show that RESP can reach higher level of performance than ESP. ...

Aligned protein α-helix dipoles have been implicated in protein function and structure. The recent breakthroughs in high-resolution electron microscopy (EM) of macromolecules makes it possible to explore fundamental aspects of structural biology at the detailed molecular level. The electrostatic potential (ESP) generated by aligned protein α-helix dipole should be observable in high-resolution ...

Wood is often combusted in small scale units for domestic heating. Although the total particle emission levels in Germany have declined steadily over the years, small scale wood combustion is an increasing source of indoor and outdoor air pollution. A novel space charge electrostatic precipitator (ESP) was developed for control of fine particle emissions control from wood combustion stoves and ...

Los sistemas agroforestales (SAF’s) de café tienen un alto potencial en la captura carbono (C) gracias a gran diversidad especies leñosas usadas como sombra. El objetivo del presente estudio fue evaluar el biomasa vegetal aérea, mantillo y materia edáfica diferentes profundidades suelo cinco SAF’s región cafetalera Huatusco, Veracruz, México. estudiados fueron: pleno sol (03.PSC-MZ, 04.PSC-ZI),...

This study is an attempt to find the relationship between EGP and ESP test in medical field of studies in Iranian context. To do this, four fields of study were randomly selected out of medicine fields. Estimating the mean and standard deviation of the tests, the variance overlap between EGP and ESP tests were calculated. The results indicated that there was no systematic relationship between t...

Particle back-corona slows the efficiency of dry-electrostatic precipitator (dry-ESP), especially during removal high resistivity particles. In this study, a new type wet-electrostatic (wet-ESP) was designed and built using stainless steel (SS), conductive glass (CG), original (OG) for its collection plates. The objectives research included characteristics both dry-ESP wet-ESP, how materials us...

Executive Summary Performance evaluation of a pulse-jet baghouse operating with AirPol's Gas Suspension Absorption (GSA) process was conducted at TVA's Center for Emissions Research (CER) facility. The baghouse filtered approximately 5000 acfm of flue gas and was operated in two different configurations: in parallel with the electrostatic precipitator (ESP) at an air-to-cloth of 4.0 acfm/ft2 an...
