Agricultural residues are intensively evaluated as potential feedstocks for biogas plants. Vegetable crops generate massive during and at the end of their growing seasons. A greenhouse facility in Greece, Thrace Greenhouses S.A., generates 7000–8000 t per year residual green biomass, resulting from hydroponic cultivation tomatoes cucumbers on 170,000 m2 land February to November. The crop inclu...

Diagnosability plays an important role in appraising the reliability and fault tolerance of symmetrical multiprocessor systems. The novel g-good-neighbor conditional diagnosability restrains that every fault-free node contains at least g neighbors is suitable for large scale systems, attracting a lot research attention. relationships between connectivity graphs under MM* model are separately st...

For many years, atmospheric mercury has been perceived as a global pollutant. Transport of mercury compounds in the atmosphere and its deposition on the earth's surface is an important issue that requires knowledge regarding the circulation of the various forms of this metal between environmental components. There are many numerical models that can be used to study and image this phenomenon. Th...

Formic acid is much more abundant in the solid state, both in interstellar ices and cometary ices, than in the interstellar gas (ice/gas ∼ 104) and this point remains a puzzle. The goal of this work is to experimentally study ionization and photodissociation processes of HCOOH (formic acid), a glycine precursor molecule. The measurements were taken at the Brazilian Synchrotron Light Laboratory ...

We previously reported that heat shock protein 105 (HSP105) is overexpressed in a variety of human cancers, including colorectal, pancreatic and esophageal cancer and has proven to be a novel biomarker for the immunohistochemical detection of these cancers. In the present study, we used HLA-transgenic mice (Tgm) and the peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of colorectal cancer patients to...
