We report a detailed experimental study of (i) pressure-induced transformations in glycerol-water mixtures at T = 77 K and P = 0-1.8 GPa, and (ii) heating-induced transformations of glycerol-water mixtures recovered at 1 atm and T = 77 K. Our samples are prepared by cooling the solutions at ambient pressure at various cooling rates (100 K s(-1)-10 K h(-1)) and for the whole range of glycerol mo...

The stabilities of eight strains of respiratory syncytial virus were compared after the strains were freeze-dried in the presence and absence of the stabilizer SPGA, which contains 218 mM sucrose, 7.1 mM dipotassium hydrogen phosphate, 3.76 mM potassium dihydrogen phosphate, 4.9 mM sodium glutamate, and 1% (wt/vol) bovine albumin. Strains freeze-dried in the presence of SPGA showed only small-t...

We investigate the possibility that dark matter abundance is sourced by baryon/lepton asymmetry of early Universe. It turns out a Goldstone field local classically preserved symmetry in Standard Model experiences kick during period number generation. This mechanism can be regarded as dynamical generation initial conditions for misalignment yet prediction relic presents an inverse dependence on ...

Sperm preservation is a useful technique for the maintenance of biological resources in experimental and domestic animals, and in wild animals. A new preservation method has been developed that enables sperm to be stored for a long time in a refrigerator at 4 °C. Sperm are freeze-dried in a solution containing 10 mM Tris and 1 mM EDTA. Using this method, liquid nitrogen is not required for the ...

We are using information from a paper deriving Lorentz-violating energy-momentum relation entailing an exact momentum cut of as stated by G. Salesi. Salesi in his work allegedly defines Pre Planckian physics, whereas we restrict our given application to GW generation and DE formation the first 10-39 s 10-33 or so seconds early universe. This procedure is enacted due earlier referees exhibited p...

1. Introduction As data traffic increases with further developments in the information-oriented society such as multi-channel high-definition video delivery and cloud communications service, fiber to the home (FTTH) services, among other broadband services, are widely spreading. Especially in Japan, the number of FTTH subscribers exceeded 21.4 million as of September 2011, accounting for 59.1% ...

This paper proposes a multicast polling scheme for 10G Ethernet passive optical networks (10G-EPONs). In multicast polling scheme, the GATE message is broadcast to all ONUs with a new op-code of 0007. Comparing the proposed multicasting with traditional unicasting scheme, the downstream bandwidth consumption for control packet of the multicast is 0.011% compared with the unicast of 0.11% at the...

Investigations of developing enamel crystals using Atomic and Chemical Force Microscopy (AFM, CFM) have revealed a subunit structure. Subunits were seen in height images as collinear swellings about 30 nM in diameter on crystal surfaces. In friction mode they were visible as positive regions. These were similar in size (30-50 nM) to collinear spherical structures, presumably mineral matrix comp...

The production of Lactobacillus brevis has been improved by changing the medium composition and the physiological conditions. The cellular concentration reaches 8.2 x 10(10) cells/mL in 21 h with a fed-batch technique in MRS medium. Freeze-drying has been used as technology for drying the cells and survival rates have been improved with different additives such as glycerol, CaCO3, and skimmed-m...

background quince seed mucilage biopolymer (qsmb), famous for ameliorating coughs and controlling asthma symptoms, has not been processed by scientific methods and rules into a local oral tablet. objectives the purpose of this study was to investigate and compare the mechanical properties of qsmb with different size fractions of the mucilage powder, dried by oven or by freeze drying, to achieve...
