molecular farming has been considered as a secure and economical approach for production of biopharmaceuticals. human tnf related apoptosis inducing ligand (trail) as a promising biopharmaceutical candidate has been produced in different expression hosts. however, little attention has been paid to molecular farming of the trail in spite of numerous advantages of plant expression systems. theref...

This article uses Bourdieu’s analysis of peasant life in the Bearn to illuminate a changing but resilient rural culture in mid-twentieth century Wales. Rather than finding their culture and language eroded by economic and social change, Welsh speaking participants in this biographical study used the education system to build upon their existing cultural capital previously cultivated through rel...

in recent decades, due to increasing prices of fossil fuels and environmental pollution resulting from the increased energy demand, researches on renewable energy sources have attracted lots of researcher’s attention. limited investing sources and environmental issues are important factors effecting electricity generation sector. minimizing costs and environmental damages are issues being consi...

Simulation modelling is a methodology that appears highly suitable for use in farming systems innovation. However, if the aim is to improve farming systems by supporting farmer behaviour change, model-based approaches seem to have delivered surprisingly little observable benefit to date. This paper identifies the problems underlying this apparent lack of impact, and proposes better approaches t...

Population growth and climate change challenge our food and farming systems and provide arguments for an increased intensification of agriculture. A promising option is eco-functional intensification through organic farming, an approach based on using and enhancing internal natural resources and processes to secure and improve agricultural productivity, while minimizing negative environmental i...

The security aspects of cloud computing, especially the security of data, become more and more important. It is necessary to find and develop the new mechanisms to secure the cloud. The problem presented in the paper concerns the mechanisms for security of cloud computing with special attention paid to aspects of access control in clouds – the state of the art and the perspectives for

Although sheep milk production is a significant sector for the European Mediterranean countries, it shows serious competitiveness gaps. Minimizing the ecological impacts of dairy sheep farming systems could represent a key factor for farmers to bridging the gaps in competitiveness of such systems and also obtaining public incentives. However, scarce is the knowledge about the environmental perf...
