composting of organic agricultural wastes is a sustainable method for recycling of the wastes. for determining the effects of tea waste compost (twc) and tree bark compost (tbc) on growing media and some quantity and quality of greenhouse lettuce cv. grate lake 118 this experiment was carried out based on a completely randomized design of four replications. the treatments were different mixture...

Nondestructive evaluation (NDE) methods are being developed for ceramic thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) applied to components in the hot-gas path of advanced high-efficiency and low-emission gas turbines, including syn-gas fired turbines. The objectives of the NDE development are to assess TBC condition for quality control as well as to monitor TBC degradation and predict TBC life during servic...

Rab GTPases serve as major control elements in the coordination and definition of specific trafficking steps and intracellular compartments. Rab activity is modulated in part by GTPase-activating proteins (GAPs), and many RabGAPs share a Tre-2/Bub2/Cdc16 (TBC)-domain architecture, although the majority of TBC proteins are poorly characterized. We reconstruct the evolutionary history of the TBC ...

In this paper a functional graded material (FGM) thermal barrier coating (TBC) is prepared using Atmospheric Plasma Spraying (APS) method. The FGM layers were deposited by varying the feeding ratio of CYSZ/NiCrAlY and conventional CYSZ on a NiCrALY-coated Inconel 738 substrates. Hot corrosion behavior, bonding strength and the related failure mechanisms of a conventional TBC and a FGM TBC are i...

Introduction: Tuberculosis (TBC) is one of the most common forms of pleurisy, pleural effusion and extra pulmonary TBC. Tube thoracostomy is the primary treatment method in massive TBC pleurisy. On the other hand, video-Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery (VATS) has come to the fore in the diagnosis and treatment of undiagnosed patients. In this study, our aim is to share the results of surgeries in...

Tweakable blockcipher (TBC) is an extension of standard blockcipher introduced by Liskov, Rivest and Wagner in 2002. TBC is a versatile building block for efficient symmetric-key cryptographic functions, such as authenticated encryption. In this paper we study the problem of extending tweak of a given TBC of fixed-length tweak, which is a variant of popular problem of converting a blockcipher i...

4-t-Butylcatechol (TBC) is an antioxidant used primarily as a polymerization inhibitor for reactive monomers. Annual production and use of TBC in the United States is approximately 1.5 million pounds. The absorption, tissue distribution, metabolism, and excretion of [(14)C]TBC, labeled in the methine carbon, was investigated in male Fischer 344 rats and B6C3F(1) mice after i.v., oral, and derma...

The TBC (Tre-2/Bub2/Cdc16) domain was originally identified as a conserved domain among the tre-2 oncogene product and the yeast cell cycle regulators Bub2 and Cdc16, and it is now widely recognized as a conserved protein motif that consists of approx. 200 amino acids in all eukaryotes. Since the TBC domain of yeast Gyps [GAP (GTPase-activating protein) for Ypt proteins] has been shown to funct...
