Effects of xylose on xylanase production by a thermophilic Bacillus sp showed diverse patterns on corn cob (CC) and wheat bran (WB) as sole carbon sources in solidstate fermentation (SSF) and submerged fermentation (SmF). Supplementation of these media with either mineral salt solution (MSS) or yeast extract peptone (YEP) also exerted variable effects. While under SSF, xylose stimulated xylanas...

Molecular skin surface (MSS), proposed by Edelsbrunner, is a C2 continuous smooth surface modeling approach of biological macromolecules. Compared to the traditional methods of molecular surface representations (e.g., the solvent exclusive surface), MSS has distinctive advantages including having no self-intersection and being decomposable and transformable. For further promoting MSS to the fie...

Mobile Distributed systems (MDSs) are made up of Mobile host (MH), Base Station (BS) and Mobile Support Station (MSS). Among which MSSs play a key role in mobile environment. This paper presents a low overhead Proxy MSS based framework to handle the fault in mobile distributed Systems. In the proposed scheme, one MSS lot of proxy MSS works as per the workload. One proxy MSS handles the specific...

We present a new generation of piezoresistive nanomechanical Membrane-type Surface stress Sensor (MSS) chips, which consist of a two dimensional array of MSS on a single chip. The implementation of several optimization techniques in the design and microfabrication improved the piezoresistive sensitivity by 3~4 times compared to the first generation MSS chip, resulting in a sensitivity about ~10...

We consider a master surgery scheduling (MSS) problem in which block operating room (OR) time is assigned to different surgical specialties. While many MSS approaches in the literature consider only the impact of the MSS on operating theater and operating staff, we enlarge the scope to downstream resources, such as the intensive care unit (ICU) and the general wards required by the patients onc...

MOTIVATION For the purpose of locating conserved genes in a whole genome scale, this paper proposes a new structural optimization problem called the Mutated Subsequence Problem, which gives consideration to possible mutations between two species (in the form of reversals and transpositions) when comparing the genomes. RESULTS A practical algorithm called mutated subsequence algorithm (MSS) is...

Microencapsulation of Pasteurella multocida within alginate based microspheres (MSs) for subcutaneous vaccination was accomplished by emulsification-cross-linking technique. Alginate MSs were spontaneously formed by ionic cross-linking using calcium and zinc ions, and further stabilized employing zinc ion. A mean particle size of less than 10 um has been successfully developed using simple mixe...

For deep learning-based object detection, we present a superior network named MSS-YOLOv5, which not only considers the reliability in complex scenes but also promotes its timeliness to better adapt practical scenarios. First of all, multi-scale information is integrated into different feature dimensions improve distinction and robustness features. The design detectors increases variety detectio...
