This article deals with the problem of utilization solid residue fir tree greens formed during industrial production essential oils. The objective this study was to chemical composition bioconversion products substrates based on greens. strain PP-3.2. Pleurotus pulmonarius (Fr.) Quél acted as a biodestructor.
 In process bioconversion, content polysaccharides and lignin substances decrease...

This text contains some notes to a three hour lecture in complex analysis given at Caltech. The lectures start from scratch and contain an essentially self-contained proof of the Jordan normal form theorem, I had learned from Eugene Trubowitz as an undergraduate at ETH Zürich in the third semester of the standard calculus education at that school. My text also includes two proofs of the fundame...

Aquaponics is an effective method to practice sustainable agriculture and is gaining popularity in the US; however, the microbial safety of aquaponically grown produce needs to be ascertained. Aquaponics is a unique marriage of fish production and soil-free produce (e.g., leafy greens) production. Fish are raised in fresh water tanks that are connected to water filled beds where fruits and vege...

The general problem of representing the Greens function G(k,z) in terms of self-energy in field theories lacking Wick’s theorem is considered. A simple construction shows that a Dyson-like representation with a self-energy !(k,z) is always possible, provided we start with a spectral representation for G(k,z) for finite-sized systems and take the thermodynamic limit. The self-energy itself can t...

The California Leafy Greens Marketing Agreement (LGMA) was adopted in an effort to minimize the risk of contamination of leafy greens with enteric pathogens from a variety of sources, including ground and surface irrigation waters. The LGMA contains standards similar to those established for recreational waters, based on Escherichia coli concentrations. However, no correlation between E. coli a...
