In this paper, we introduce the concepts of r-semigeneralized fuzzy closed sets, r-semi-generalized fuzzy open sets, rsemi-generalized fuzzy continuous maps in fuzzy topological spaces and investigate some of their properties.

A human hormone-synthesizing trophoblastic cell system has been established in vitro and may prove to be the first func tional human embryonic cell line in continuous culture. Chorionic gonadotropin hormone produced by these cultures serve as a marker for identification of the trophoblastic cell. No interruption in this property nor change in cytologie display has occurred during 1.5 years in c...

Commercial microalgae cultivations use the semi-continuous mode, but there are no reports of using this cultivation mode to produce carbohydrate-rich biomass. It was evaluated biomass productivity and intracellular carbohydrates by Spirulina platensis in cultivation. Besides, reuse culture media after blend accomplished order obtain nutrient-depleted cultures. In first stage (Step 1), performed...

In this paper, we introduce a fast estimate algorithm for discriminant training of semi-continuous HMM (Hidden Markov Models). We first present the Frame Discrimination (FD) method proposed in [9] for weight re-estimate. Then, the weight update equation is formulated in the specific framework of semi-continuous models. Finally, we propose an approximated update function which requires a very lo...

If U and V are topologies on an abstract set X, then the triple (X, U, V) is a bitopological space. Using the theorem of Priestley on the representation of distributive lattices, results of Dilworth concerning the normal completion of the lattice of bounded, continuous, realvalued functions on a topological space are extended to include the lattice of bounded, semi-continuous, real-valued funct...

A new, easy to prepare semi-defined medium for the cultivation of trypanosomes of the T. brucei complex is introduced. Containing the two commercially available media MEM (Minimum Essential Medium) and Medium 199 TC45 as well as 10% inactivated foetal calf serum (fcs), the medium supports optimum growth and direct adaptation of bloodstream forms. Growth characteristics, glucose uptake, amino ac...

Extrinsic and intrinsic characterizations are given for the class DSC(K) of differences of semi-continuous functions on a Polish space K, and also decomposition characterizations of DSC(K) and the class PS(K) of pointwise stabilizing functions on K are obtained in terms of behavior restricted to ambiguous sets. The main, extrinsic characterization is given in terms of behavior restricted to som...

We report the first continuous flow synthesis of lamivudine, an antiretroviral drug used in the treatment of HIV/AIDS and hepatitis B. The key intermediate (5-acetoxy oxathiolane) was prepared by an integrated two step continuous flow process from l-menthyl glyoxalate hydrate in a single solvent, in 95% overall conversion. For the crucial glycosidation reaction, using pyridinium triflate as the...
