The incidence of Ureaplasma urealyticum in endourethral swabs was compared with that in first voided urine specimens from 171 male patients. The organism was isolated from the urethras of 72 (42%) and from the urine of 66 (39%). The interval since last voiding urine did not significantly influence the incidence of infection or ureaplasma counts in either type of specimen. Urethritis was strongl...

This paper introduces a calculus for concurrent update (CCU) that is used to specify distributed objects. The calculus permits updates to be effected immediately at each site − no central server, locking, token passing, rollback, or other form of serialization is enforced. Notice of each update at each site is transmitted to every other site, where a corresponding update is effected. Unless spe...

Heavy industries such as cement, iron and steel, oil refining, petrochemicals are responsible for about 22% of global carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. There exist several pathways CO2 mitigation. Capturing, storage, utilization (CCS CCU) provide an operational solution significant emission High purity streams the most interesting points CCS CCU. Pure suitable compression, transport, storage.
