This study explores the growth in demand for fast food. A distinguishing characteristic of fast food is its convenience; in today's pervasive marketplace, consumers need not travel far to find a fast food outlet. This greater availability translates into a decrease in the full price of obtaining a meal, which contributes to greater consumption. Market-level data are used to estimate demand equa...

America has recently seen an increasing epidemic of diet related diseases in people of all backgrounds. However, the brunt of these health risks, especially those stemming from obesity, seem to disproportionately fall on those of lower socioeconomic status.

Non-Intrusive Load Monitoring (NILM) has gradually become a research focus in recent years to measure the power consumption households for energy conservation. Most of existing algorithms on NILM models independently when total current load appliances occurs, and usually undergoes problem signatures appliance. This paper presents distingue design classify by investigating inrush pattern allianc...

in this study, a specific ch4 sensor is fabricated based on interdigitated electrode that modified with core-shell of tungsten carbide/tin oxide (wc/sno2) nanoparticles by wet chemical method in different percents of carbon and tungsten. the morphology of wet chemical-synthesized wc/sno2 core-shell was evaluated by different methods such as patterned x-ray diffraction (xrd), and particle size a...

objective: polymerase chain reaction (pcr) is one of the most important progress in the field of molecular biology and diagnosis. despite simplicity in concept, the reaction needs complex interaction between target sequence, primers, dntps and dna polymerase for a successful amplification and diagnosis. for the detection of rna viruses highly sensetive and specific technique is required. hence ...

introduction: intranodal pathways of atrioventricular (av) node play a vital role in the delay of conduction time in response to various atrial inputs. the present study was aimed to determine the frequency-dependent electrophysiological properties of concealed slow pathway according to a functional model of isolated rabbit atrioventricular node preparation after fast pathway ablation. methods:...
