BackgroundLaboratory results are of central importance for clinical decision making.The time span between availability and review of results by clinicians is crucial to patient care.Clinical decision support systems (CDSS) are computational tools that can identify critical values automatically and help decrease treatment delay.ObjectiveWith this wo
Molecular engineering of fungal GH5 and GH26 beta-(1,4)-mannanases toward improvement of enzyme activity.
Microbial mannanases are biotechnologically important enzymes since they target the hydrolysis of hemicellulosic polysaccharides of softwood biomass into simple molecules like manno-oligosaccharides and mannose.In this study, we have implemented a strategy of molecular engineering in the yeast Yarrowia lipolytica to improve the specific activity of
Durability Study of Coir Geotextile Embedded in Different Types of Subgrade Soil
Coir fiber is a natural fiber extracted from the husk of coconut.Coir geotextiles made from coir fibers which are biodegradable and eco-friendly are a good alternative to Bushing polymeric geotextile.Biodegradation is a factor which limits its civil engineering applications.Hence this study is made to explore the degradation rate of coir geotextile
An open-source database for the synthesis of soil radiocarbon data: International Soil Radiocarbon Database (ISRaD) version 1.0
Radiocarbon is a critical constraint on our estimates of the timescales of soil carbon cycling that can aid in identifying mechanisms of carbon stabilization and destabilization and improve the forecast of soil carbon response to management or environmental change.Despite the wealth of soil radiocarbon data that have been reported over the past 75
The Effect of Terrain Inclination on Performance and the Stability Region of Two-Wheeled Mobile Robots
Two-wheeled mobile robots (TWMRs) have a capability of avoiding the tip-over problem on inclined terrain by adjusting the centre of mass position of the robot body.The effects of terrain inclination on the robot performance are studied to exploit this capability.Prior to the real-time implementation of position Fireplace Insert with Crushed Glass c
