A comparative study was made on the effect of urea denaturation
of bovine serum albumin (BSA), polyglycyl BSA and poly-L-phenylalanyl
BSA. The denaturation process was followed by ultraviolet
spectrophotometry and optical rotation.
A blue shift in the absorption maximum at 278 mμ was observed
in urea denatured proteins, In 7M...
The efficiency of a marine cargo terminal depends
primarily upon a smooth and orderly flow of material
during the container loading process. It has been
observed that the transtainer operation is the bottleneck
in the loading process due to frequent rehandles of
containers and the speed of the transtainer. Past...
Quickersort, Straight Insertion Sort, Mehlhorn's AVL-tree Sorting Algorithm and Cook's new sorting algorithm are compared on nearly and nedium sorted lists. The ratio of the minimum number of list elements that must be removed so that the remaining portion of the list is in order to the size of the...
With sequential computing technology reaching its speed limits, parallel processing is emerging as the key to very-high-speed computation. However, developing a parallel program is by no means a simple task; neither is analyzing the performance of parallel programs.
C* is a high-level data-parallel language that hides explicit message passing and...
According to USDA research, Oregon in 2002 had the highest rate of hunger and one of the highest rates of food insecurity in the United States. Although the margin of error involved with these statistics indicates that the state may not actually be at the top of the list, a...
English sole (Parophrys vetulus) is a flatfish found in abundance in the Pacific Ocean and is part of the Pacific Northwest's and California's commercial trawl fishery. Stock levels of this fish are at all time highs but there are decreased landings due to low demand and acceptability. With new regulations...
Article 1: Behavior of Epoxy Injected Diagonally Cracked Full-Scale CRC Deck-Girders.
Many cast-in place reinforced concrete deck-girder bridges (RCDG) remain in the national inventory and exhibit diagonal cracking. Epoxy injection has been in use for several decades as a method for sealing diagonal cracks, but the effects on girder behavior...
