Effects of inoculation level (4 or 8-fold compared to standard inoculation) and order (standard inoculation before fermentation and 3-fold inoculation at the end of fermentation = 1+3, Two-fold inoculation before fermentation and the same at the end of fermentation = 2+2, 2+6, 4-fold before fermentation = 4, 4+4, and 8) of culture inoculums containing probiotics on viscosity, phase separation,...

We determined the methane (CH(4)) uptake (at 298 K and 1 to 100 bar pressure) for a variety of covalent organic frameworks (COFs), including both two-dimensional (COF-1, COF-5, COF-6, COF-8, and COF-10) and three-dimensional (COF-102, COF-103, COF-105, and COF-108) systems. For all COFs, the CH(4) uptake was predicted from grand canonical Monte Carlo (GCMC) simulations based on force fields (FF...

The synthesis, spectroscopic and structural characterization of the aryloxy and amino functionalized chloroboryl complexes (eta(5)-C(5)R(5))Fe(CO)(2)B(OMes)Cl (R = H, 2a ; R = Me, 3a) and (eta(5)-C(5)H(5))Fe(CO)(2)B(N(i)Pr(2))Cl (7a) are reported. Compound 2ais shown to be a versatile substrate for further boron-centred substitution chemistry leading to the asymmetric boryl complexes (eta(5)-C(...

We analyze the formation and evolution of stellar bars in galactic disks embedded in mildly triaxial cold dark matter (CDM) halos that have density distributions ranging from large flat cores to cuspy profiles. We have applied tailored numerical simulations of analytical and live halos which include the feedback from disk/bar system onto the halo in order to test and extend earlier work by El-Z...

We used the model nematode Caenorhabditis elegans infected with the human pathogen Staphylococcus aureus to identify components of epithelial immunity. Transcriptional profiling and reverse genetic analysis revealed that mutation of the C. elegans beta-catenin homolog bar-1 or the downstream homeobox gene egl-5 results in a defective response and hypersensitivity to S. aureus infection. Epistas...

We reemphasize the strong dependence of branching ratios $B(K^+\to\pi^+\nu\bar\nu)$ and $B(K_L\to\pi^0\nu\bar\nu)$ on $|V_{cb}|$ that is stronger than in rare $B$ decays, particular for $K_L\to\pi^0\nu\bar\nu$. Thereby persistent tension between inclusive exclusive determinations weakens power these theoretically clean decays search new physics (NP). demonstrate how this uncertainty can be prac...
