Cells need safety valves.
In Escherichia coli, the role of lacA, the third gene of the lactose operon, has remained an enigma. I suggest that its role is the consequence of the need for cells to have safety valves that protect them from the osmotic effect created by their permeases. Safety valves allow them to cope with the buildup of osmotic pressure under accidental transient conditions. Multidrug resistance (MDR) eff...
متن کاملSafety Testing of Left Ventricular Vent Valves.
Vent vacuum relief valves (VRVs) are used to limit the negative pressure at the ventricular vent catheter tip as well as prevent reversal of blood flow and prevention of air embolism. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the performance of three commercially available ventricular vent valves. The negative pressure at which the vent valve opened was measured at the valve inlet using high-fi...
متن کاملExperimental study of hydrodynamic characteristics of improved sieve tray with push valves
This paper addresses an experimental investigation in the hydrodynamic behavior of a modified slotted sieve tray. Slotted sieve tray (Push valve sieve tray) is a sieve tray that the push valves have been utilized on the tray deck to eliminate liquid gradients and non-uniformity of liquid distribution on the tray. The air-water system was used in an industrial scale experimental rig with an inte...
متن کاملImproved piezoelectric actuators for use in high-speed pulsed valves.
We describe the assembly of piezoelectric actuators suitable for use in Proch-Trickl pulsed gas valves employed in pulsed molecular beam experiments. In their simplest form, these actuators have performance equal to and resistance to chemical attack far superior to the recently discontinued commercial actuator around which the valve was originally designed. New actuators have been designed empl...
متن کاملInternational Environmental Agreements: Emissions trade, safety valves and escape clauses∗
We explain how the structure of multi-national or multi-regional environmental agreements affect their chance of success. Trade in emissions permits has ambiguous and in some cases surprising effects on both the equilibrium level of abatement, and on the ability to persuade nations or regions to participate in environmental agreements. An escape clause policy and a safety valve policy have esse...
