To examine the effects of cimaterol (CIM) and its withdrawal on meat tenderness and carcass composition, 21-d-old broiler chickens (n = 288) were randomly assigned to one of nine treatments. For Treatments 1 through 6, birds were fed a control diet or a diet containing 1 ppm CIM until slaughter at 35, 42, or 49 d of age. Treatments 7 and 8 consisted of birds fed the CIM diet for 14 d and then w...

To quantitatively evaluate drug-drug interactions involving metabolic processes in the liver, we attempted to predict the increasing ratio of the plasma concentration of midazolam (MDZ) in the presence of cimetidine (CIM) or nizatidine (NZD) in rats. Under steady-state conditions for the plasma concentration of CIM or NZD, MDZ was administered through the portal vein. The AUC of MDZ in the pres...

Communication systems continue to offer potential for improving ·the efficiency of manufacturing enterprises through Computer Integrated Manufacturing (CIM). This potential cannot, however, be realized by developments on the communications front alone. We discuss CIM issues on several fronts and endeavor to relate developments on the communications front to what we believe to be some of the maj...

Compute-in-memory (CiM) is a promising approach to alleviating the memory wall problem for domain-specific applications. Compared current-domain CiM solutions, charge-domain shows opportunity higher energy efficiency and resistance device variations. However, area occupation standby leakage power of existing SRAM-based (CD-CiM) are high. This brief proposes first concept analysis CD-CiM using n...

Changes in market and production profiles require a more flexible concept of manufacturing. Computer Integrated Manufacturing (CIM) describes an integrative concept for joining business and manufacturing islands. In this context database technology is the key technology for implementing the CIM philosophy. However, CIM applications are more complex and thus, more demanding than traditional data...

The response time to cimaterol (CIM), a beta-adrenergic agonist, by broiler chickens for carcass characteristics, muscle composition, muscle fiber size, catheptic enzyme activity, and tenderness was determined. Two trials were conducted in which chickens were fed a control diet (CON) containing 0 ppm of CIM or a diet containing 1 ppm of CIM. Trial 1 consisted of 55, 31-d-old broiler chickens in...

A refined cluster-in-molecule (CIM) method for local correlation calculations of large molecules is presented. In the present work, two new strategies are introduced to further improve the CIM approach: (1) Some medium-range electron correlation energies, which are neglected in the previous CIM approach, are taken into account. (2) A much simpler procedure using only a distance threshold is use...
