Abstract Salt stress in plants presents a major challenge to future agricultural production. Digestate has various effects on plant growth, but little information is available its the antioxidant system and physiological characteristics of lettuce under salt stress. In this study, impacts mineral fertilizer digestate application edible parts were compared three salinities. Experimental treatmen...

Shear strength is important for the application of Larix kaempferi (Lamb) Carr. The structural difference between earlywood and latewood affects its mechanical properties, especially shear strength. microstructures in kaempferi, however, are different. In this study, we investigated failure mode RL direction 40 specimens. results demonstrated that initial crack appears any location a growth rin...

BACKGROUND Novel analytical tools, which shorten the long and costly development cycles of biopharmaceuticals are essential. Metabolic flux analysis (MFA) shows great promise in improving our understanding of the metabolism of cell factories in bioreactors, but currently only provides information post-process using conventional off-line methods. MFA combined with real time multianalyte process ...

BACKGROUND Steady-state (13)C-based metabolic flux analysis ((13)C-MFA) is the most powerful method available for the quantification of intracellular fluxes. These analyses include concertedly linked experimental and computational stages: (i) assuming the metabolic model and optimizing the experimental design; (ii) feeding the investigated organism using a chosen (13)C-labeled substrate (tracer...

Background: Parental - fetal attachment behaviors play important role in pregnancy outcome, maternal and paternal identity and also children development. It seems that these behaviors are different in infertile couples. Knowing the relationship between infertility and parental - fetal attachment was the aim of this study Materials and Methods: For this cross - sectional study that was done in 1...

Authentication is the preliminary security mechanism employed in information system to identify legitimacy of user. With technological advancements, hackers with sophisticated techniques easily crack single-factor authentication (username and password). Therefore, organizations started deploy multi-factor (MFA) increase complexity access system. Despite MFA increasing digital service, usable sh...

We present a micromagnetic formulation for modeling the magnetization dynamics and thermal equilibrium in ferrimagnetic materials at low elevated temperatures. The is based on mean field approximation (MFA). In this formulation, ferrimagnet described micromagnetically by two coupled sublattices with corresponding interactions, including inter- intra-sublattice exchange as well four-spin interac...

A study of the neuromuscular features of acromegaly was performed in six patients. Clinical assessment was supplemented by quadriceps force measurements, plasma creatine kinase (CK) activities, electromyography (EMG) and nerve conduction studies. Muscle mass was measured by urinary creatinine/height indices (CHI) and cross sectional area (CSA) of thighs and calves on computed tomography. Quadri...

Combinatorial optimization problems such as the Traveling Salesman Problem TSP Graph Bi partitioning and Graph Colouring have been used extensively for bench marking new optimization algorithms The challenge is to develop a general purpose algorithm that converges rapidly and yet still produces a high quality solution When an optimization problem is mapped onto a neural network as states of nod...
