Disruption of the circadian system has been hypothesized to increase cancer risk, either because of direct disruption of the molecular machinery generating circadian rhythms or because of disruption of parameters controlled by the clock such as melatonin levels or sleep duration. This hypothesis has been studied in hormone-dependent cancers among women, but data are sparse about potential effec...

In the current competitive and dynamic market, customer demands and interests are changing continuously, and hence, risk of disruption in the supply chain is also increasing. To be successful in this scenario, supply chain of a firm should be resilient. Most of the firms realize that with a specific end goal to develop a resilient supply chain, there is a need for assessment of performance. The...

there are many techniques to knock out directed genes in bacteria, some of which have been described in salmonella species. in this study, a combination of soeing pcr method and the λ red disruption system were used to disrupt phop gene in wild type and standard strains of salmonella typhimurium. three standards pcr and one fusion pcr reactions were performed to construct a linear dna including...

supplier selection is one of the most critical activities of purchasing management in supply chain and managers increasingly face sourcing decisions of how to selected suppliers. this paper illustrates the development of a sourcing decision that provides support for the buyer firm in supply chain.the models developed here, involved selecting between single and dual sourcing. outside and local s...

Disruptions have often been ignored in supply chain models due to their infrequency; however, there is evidence that disruptions are among the most significant threats to supply chains. This paper presents analytical methods to model and quantify disruption risks. The methods consist of breaking disruption risks down into four components: impact, occurrence, detectability and recovery. Analytic...

Nowadays, logistics and supply chain management (SCM) is critical to compete in the current turbulent markets. In addition, in the global context, there are many uncertainties which affect on the market. One of the most important risks is supplier disruption. The first step to cope with these uncertainties is quantifying them. In this regard many researches have focused on the problem but measu...
