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...
In pursuit of global sustainability, forestry has witnessed significant shifts in practices and the development of new technologies and ideas. Primary and secondary processing industries have made substantial efforts to increase wood utilization rates, improve occupational safety and the working environment for humans, and have exhibited interest in procuring raw...
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...
In mature Arabidopsis seeds, the testa (seed coat) is no longer a living tissue. Thus,
major sites of gene expression in imbibed seeds are the internal living tissues such
as the embryo and the endosperm. To elucidate the molecular mechanisms of seed
germination, the gene regulation in these two tissues...
Zinc (Zn) deficiency is a problem world-wide. Current methods for assessing Zn status are limited to measuring plasma or serum Zn within populations suspected of deficiency. Despite the high prevalence of Zn deficiency in the human population there are no methods currently available for sensitively assessing Zn status among individuals....
