BACKGROUND Efficient cofermentation of glucose and xylose is necessary for economically feasible bioethanol production from lignocellulosic biomass. Here, we demonstrate pretreatment of sugarcane bagasse (SCB) with green liquor (GL) combined with ethanol (GL-Ethanol) by adding different GL amounts. The common Saccharomyces cerevisiae (CSC) and thermophilic S. cerevisiae (TSC) strains were used ...

All GL (n) covariant star-body-valued valuations on convex polytopes are completely classified. It is shown that there is a unique nontrivial such valuation. This valuation turns out to be the so-called “intersection operator”—an operator that played a critical role in the solution of the Busemann-Petty problem. Introduction. A function Z defined on the set K of convex bodies (that is, of conve...

As part of our ongoing investigation of the stenoendemic plants belonging to the Brassicaceae family, we report on the chemistry of Fibigia triquetra (DC.) Boiss. ex Prantl for the first time. Different plant parts (flower, leaf, stem, and seed) of F. triquetra were characterized and quantified for glucosinolates (GLs) according to the ISO 9167-1 EU official method based on the HPLC analysis of...

In this paper we characterize the rank two vector bundles on P 2 which are invariant under action of Gp := Stabp(PGL(3)), that fixes a point in projective plane, GL StabL(PGL(3)), line, and T = ∩ GL. Moreover, prove geometrical configuration jumping locus induced by invariance does not, other hand, itself. Indeed, find infinity families almost uniform but not homogeneous.

Let q be a large prime and χ the quadratic character modulo q. Let φ be a self-dual cuspidal Hecke eigenform for SL(3,Z), and f a Hecke-Maaß cusp form for Γ0(q) ⊆ SL2(Z). We consider the twisted L-functions L(s, φ × f × χ) and L(s, φ × χ) on GL(3) × GL(2) and GL(3) with conductors q6 and q3, respectively. We prove the subconvexity bounds L(1/2, φ× f × χ) φ,f,ε q, L(1/2 + it, φ× χ) φ,t,ε q for a...

BACKGROUND In classic Fabry patients, accelerated coronary atherosclerosis and left ventricular hypertrophy manifest in the fourth decade; however, signs of cardiovascular disease also are observed later in life in "cardiac variant" patients and symptomatic female heterozygotes. These disturbances are caused by globotriaosylceramide (GL-3) accumulation in the heart resulting from lysosomal alph...

UNLABELLED Eccentric training for Achilles tendinosis (AT) has been reported to significantly improve patient symptoms. There has been no biomechanical explanation on the mechanism for specific rehabilitation technique. The purpose of this study was to determine changes in muscle architecture that occurred as a result of Achilles tendinosis injury and a subsequent eccentric rehabilitation progr...

INTRODUCTION Both therapeutic ultrasound as a low level laser therapy are used to control musculoskeletal pain, despite controversy about its effects, yet the literature is poor and also presents conflicting results on possible cumulative effects of techniques association. The aim was to compare the antinociceptive effects of low level laser therapy, therapeutic ultrasound and the association. ...
