Abstract Droplet microfluidics is a powerful tool for diverse range of biomedical and industrial applications such as single-cell biology, synthetic digital PCR, biosafety monitoring, drug screening, food, feed, cosmetic industries. As an integral part droplet microfluidics, on-chip multiplexed sorting has recently gained enthusiasm, since it enables real-time single droplets containing cells w...

We study a financial market where asymmetric information, mispricing and jumps exist, and link the random optimal portfolios of informed and uninformed investors to the deterministic optimal portfolio of the symmetric market, where no mispricing exists. In particular, we show that under quadratic approximation, the expectation of the random optimal portfolio in the asymmetric market is equal to...

FAD technology has an indirect impact on the development of fishery stocks, thereby increasing diversity fish species in area. This study aimed to determine types pelagic caught using handlines around FADs. The target this was traditional fishermen. research conducted survey methods and directly involved fishing process. Fishing carried out with specifications consisting main line, weight, swiv...

INTRODUCTION Anchored bamboo fish-aggregating devices (FADs) are used to catch tuna and small pelagic fish. Several hypotheses had been advanced previously to explain the association of fish with FADs (Castro et al. 2002; Fréon & Misund 1999), but the processes responsible for fish attraction and aggregation remain unknown. There is no previous research on fish behaviour related to sound near F...

Levels of omega-6 (n-6) and omega-3 (n-3), long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LcPUFAs) such as arachidonic acid (AA; 20:4, n-6), eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA; 20:5, n-3) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA; 22:6, n-3) impact a wide range of biological activities, including immune signaling, inflammation, and brain development and function. Two desaturase steps (Δ6, encoded by FADS2 and Δ5, encoded...

Nowadays, the use of public transportation is reducing and people prefer to private transport because its low cost, comfortable ride, personal preferences. However, causes numerous real-world road accidents due conditions drivers’ state such as drowsiness, stress, tiredness, age during driving. In cases, driver fatigue detection mandatory avoid ensure a journey. To date, several complex systems...

Behavioral integrity is the perceived fit between espoused and enacted values. We propose that the maintenance of behavioral integrity is a highly problematic and consequential element of the successful management of change. Support for this view is drawn from the literatures on management fads, transformational leadership, trust and source credibility. Practical implications are developed.
