despite a highly beneficial role of water soluble arabinoxylans, the information about the effect of their addition on the properties of rye dough is lacking. the aim of this study was to check the influence of their modification methods and properties on water binding capacity of rye flour and suggest some possible explanations for the action of various fractions of arabinoxylans. three modifi...

this study compared farmers’ rating of extension effectiveness in technology dissemination to the level of adoption. in conducting the study, 180 farmers participating in extension programme in cross-river state were randomly selected through multi-stage random sampling technique. the data collected through a structured questionnaire were analyzed using the t-test of significance of difference ...

the corporate sector all over the world is restructuring its operations through different types  of  consolidation  strategies  like  mergers  and  acquisitions  in  order  to  face challenges  posed  by  the  new  pattern  of  globalization,  which  has  led  to  the  greater integration of national and international markets.. the intensity of cross-border operations recorded an unprecedented ...

In 2002, severe acute respiratory syndrome-associated coronavirus (SARS-CoV) emerged in humans, causing a global epidemic. By phylogenetic analysis, SARS-CoV is distinct from known CoVs and most closely related to group 2 CoVs. However, no antigenic cross-reactivity between SARS-CoV and known CoVs was conclusively and consistently demonstrated except for group 1 animal CoVs. We analyzed this cr...

The aim of the conducted experiments was to determine effect selected machining parameters on power consumption and surface quality obtained during milling beech wood using a computerized numerical control woodworking machine. Surface roughness tested contact measurement method, while Ra Rz were recorded cutting energy determined. Tests for two variants speed (7.5 15 m·s-1) as well three chip t...

In this paper, we discuss a cross layer congestion control technique of TCP Reno-2 in wireless networks. In this both TCP layer and PHY layer jointly control congestion. The PHY layer changes transmission power as per the channel condition, interference received and congestion in the network, whereas the TCP layer controls congestion using Reno-2 window based flow control. Our simulations show ...

Communication between cells ensures coordinated behavior. In prokaryotes, this signaling is typically referred to as quorum sensing, whereas in eukaryotic cells, communication occurs through hormones. In recent years, reports have shown that small noncoding RNAs, called microRNAs (miRNAs), can be transmitted from one species to another, inducing signal interference in distant species, even in a...

This paper proposes a framework for cross-layer adaptation for multimedia transmission over wired and wireless networks. The main concept is based on a “holistic approach” in which all layers participate to the adaptation process and make its own contributions. In addition, the proposed framework can support both wired and wireless receivers in one platform and cross layer information are used ...

Jones, Wallis L. (Communicable Disease Center, Atlanta, Ga.), and J. W. Foster. Papain-treated globulins in specific and cross-reacting immunofluorescent staining. J. Bacteriol. 91:984-986. 1966.-Cross-reaction staining with preimmune and specific fluorescein conjugates to Corynebacterium diphtheriae was studied by use of papain-treated antisera. Enzyme-treated antisera were labeled and chromat...

This paper presents clusterwise polarization characteristics taken from an estimated MIMO channel of a small urban macrocell at 4.5 GHz. Polarization path gain, cross-polarization ratio, and co-polarization ratio characteristics as influenced by channel parameters such as delay, azimuth and elevation angle of arrival were investigated. The results showed that polarization characteristics were a...
