To explore the mechanisms involved in the genetic control of muscle growth and protein gain, protein metabolism was assessed in the pectoralis major muscle of two chicken lines selected for either fast or slow growth. Protein synthesis was measured in vivo at various ages from 1 to 4 wk, using a flooding dose of L-[4-3H] phenylalanine. Protein degradation was estimated as the difference between...

It is important to develop a high-performance FFT processor to meet the requirements of real time and low cost in many different systems. So a radix-2 pipelined FFT processor based on Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) for Wireless Local Area Networks (WLAN) is proposed. Unlike being stored in the traditional ROM, the twiddle factors in our pipelined FFT processor can be accessed directly. Th...

fast food has become a prominent feature of diet and has grown into a dominant dietary pattern among youth worldwide. it is difficult to escape noticing the colourful edifice and bill boards of these food outlets, one is probably just around the corner of your street. mr biggs, tastes fried chicken, sweet sensation, big treat, favourite etc. due to competitive nature of the market many of the f...

This paper is about scene modeling and image synthesis from existing views. From some known views of a 3d scene, called \reference views", we synthesize other views of the same scene, under another point of view. The outline of the whole process is simple: we rst match the reference views, then we reconstruct the matched points in projective or Euclidean space. We build the new view by projecti...

The relationship between ribonucleotide reductase and tumor growth rate was measured in a series of rat hepatomas of different growth rates. An excellent correlation was found between tumor growth rate and the specific activity of ribonucleotide reductase. Differences of ZOO-fold in enzyme specific activities exist between the very fast and the slow growing hepatomas. This represents the larges...

An important beneet of high-level synthesis is rapid design space exploration through examination of diierent design alternatives. However, such design space exploration is not feasible without fast and accurate area and delay estimates of the synthesized designs. These estimates must factor in physical design eeects and technology-speciic information in order to achieve accuracy. High-level sy...

This paper relates experiences of algorithmic transformations in High Level Synthesis, in the area of acoustic echo cancellation. The processing and memory units are automatically designed for various equivalent LMS algorithms, in the FIR case, with important computational load. The results obtained with di erent lter lengths, give an accurate prototyping of new fast versions of the LMS algorit...

results the results showed that the fiber diameter and the amount of loratadine affected the drug release and the disappearance time of nanofibers. the smaller the fiber diameter and drug amount, the faster the solubility and the release time of nanofibers. conclusions it was concluded that electrospinning can be a suitable method for preparing fast-dissolving loratadine nanofibers. materials a...

A fast and efficient one-step approach to the synthesis of dienamides is reported. This concise methodology relies on the use of imides as reactive intermediates and allows for the preferential formation of Z,E-dienamides in good yields.

Fast optimization of mesoporous ternary metal oxide (CuCeZrO(w)) catalysts for n-hexane oxidation is achieved via a newly developed combinatorial approach based on ink-jet printing assisted synthesis and multi-dimensional group testing.
