A self-regulated high-copy number plasmid containing chloramphenicol resistant gene, for the production of recombinant proteins under the regulation of bacteriophage ?pL promoter, was constructed. The designed 5024 base pair expression plasmid contained a heat sensitive repressor cI857 coding gene to regulate the function of ?pL promoter under heat shock induction. Using the constructed vector,...

The Jammu Region (JR) in the northwestern Himalayas trigged by medium to high magnitude near-field as well far-field earthquake events, including most recent 2019 Mirpur earthquake. In this paper, an attempt has been made develop zonation map for liquefaction hazard JR based on potential index ( $$\mathrm{LPI}$$ ) and probability of $${P}_{L}$$ ). To achieve this, factor safety against was esti...

Bengkulu City has a high liquefaction rate, both geologically and geophysically. This is because consists of rocks in the form sand, silt, mud, clay, coral fragments gravel alluvial areas (Qa) floodplains. Terrace formation (Qat). study aims to analyze potential using seismic waves City, resulting layer profile (Vs) obtained from Vs30 soil classification with potential. was conducted PASI 16S-2...

*Correspondence: Randel T. Cox, Department of Earth Sciences, University of Memphis, Johnson Hall, Memphis, TN 38152, USA e-mail: [email protected] Large-scale liquefaction features (e.g., sand blows, lateral-spread fissure vents) that can be recognized on remote-sensing imagery and photography have been of great utility in developing chronologies of paleo-earthquakes. In areas where large-s...

The impacts of the Madden-Julian Oscillation (MJO) on polar low (PL) activity are examined. We found that PL frequency increases over Irminger Sea and decreases Norwegian-Barents Seas following MJO Phases 2–4, nearly opposite changes for 6–8. Further analysis reveals significant anomalies static stability low-level baroclinicity different phases, which have opposing effects in many regions. dia...

Platelet Lysate (PL) contains a cocktail of growth factors and cytokines, which actively participates in tissue repair and its clinical application has been broadly described. The aim of this study was to assess the regenerative potential of PL for bone repair. We demonstrated that PL stimulation induces a transient increase of the inflammatory response in quiescent human osteoblasts, via NF-kB...

The acid-catalyzed liquefaction of rape straw in methanol using microwave energy was examined. Conversion yield and energy consumption were evaluated to profile the microwave-assisted liquefaction process. Chemical components of the bio-oils from various liquefaction conditions were identified. A higher reaction temperature was found to be beneficial to obtain higher energy consumption efficien...
