The objective of this study was to develop and validate secondary models that can predict growth parameters of L. monocytogenes Scott A as a function of concentrations (0-3%) of a commercial potassium lactate (PL) and sodium diacetate (SDA) mixture, pH (5.5-7.0), and temperature (4-37oC). A total of 120 growth curves were fitted to the Baranyi primary model that directly estimates lag time (LT)...

all forms of creative production born of an intimate and individual urge, often secretive, unbound from the conventional art system rules. Through short descriptions of the Outsider art work of prominent artists and new protagonists often hosted in community mental health services, this section intends to investigate the latest developments of the contemporary art scene, where the distances bet...

We give a new definition of Scott rank motivated by our main theorem: For every countable structure A and ordinal α < ω1, we have that: every automorphism orbit is Σ α -definable without parameters if and only if A has a Π α+1 Scott sentence, if and only if A is uniformly boldface ∆α-categorical. As a corollary, we show that a structure is computably categorical on a cone if and only if it is t...

“The debate on sustainable production often ends in discussions on the feasibility of farreaching changes in relation to the competitiveness of companies. Industry itself and policy-makers tend to back away from engaging in profound processes of industrial transformation” (Green, quotation frames the problem of moving towards sustainable production while dividing the issue into two separate yet...
