In the preceding chapter a taxonomy of pr oblem types was proposed, and some hypotheses set forth about the general kin ds of skills and knowledge needed to solve problems of each type.. The p resent chapter, adopting the same information-processing point of view as the previous one, undertakes three tasks. The first part of the chapter sets forth th e general theory of human problem Solving th...

PR-39 is a proline-arginine-rich (PR) neutrophil antibacterial peptide originally identified and purified from the porcine small intestine. We report on the synthesis of a functional antibacterial domain of PR-39, the first 26 amino acid residues of the NH2 terminus. PR-26 was as potent as or more potent than PR-39 against enteric gram-negative bacteria. This truncated form of PR-39 potentiated...

This article takes its name and inspiration from Mad Professor’s album A Caribbean Taste of Technology in response to the theme of this Technosphere issue. This makes a good place to start a discussion of creolization and technology – the dub reggae tracks of this album produced British producer Mad Professor and released in 1985, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ewDTHfJqLwI So what I present he...

One hundred accessions of a “core collection” Diplotaxis tenuifolia (L.) DC. and Eruca spp. were screened at seedling stage for resistance to downy mildew. Accessions tested the assigned 0–6 interaction phenotypes. All cultivated rocket (Eruca spp.) exhibited resistant (R) response both in cotyledons young leaves. The wild (D. tenuifolia) higher susceptibility than 1st 2nd leaves, with 16 47 cl...

Dans cet article, nous passons brivement en revue les mŽthodes de simulation molŽculaire applicables ˆ la prŽdiction des propriŽtŽs thermophysiques des fluides et des mŽlanges. Nous montrons, d'une part, comment la mŽthode de Monte-Carlo dans l'ensemble de Gibbs permet de prŽdire le comportement de phase de fluides rŽels dans des conditions telles que l'acquisition de donnŽes expŽrimentales se...
