assessment of the efficiency of s.p.g.c refineries using network dea
data envelopment analysis (dea) is a powerful tool for measuring relative efficiency of organizational units referred to as decision making units (dmus). in most cases dmus have network structures with internal linking activities. traditional dea models, however, consider dmus as black boxes with no regard to their linking activities and therefore do not provide decision makers with the reasons...
A systematic and quantitative analysis of PCR template contamination.
A quantitative and systematic analysis is provided for ubiquitously present template DNA interfering with the quantification of human DNA by PCR. Two sources contributing to DNA background were identified. The first one is interpreted as DNA present in chemicals and on equipment and the second as caused by operator handling. The amounts were equivalent to 2.5 and 8.9 pg per mL of sample, and th...
متن کاملA Quantitative Risk Assessment for Stachybotrys chartarum- Toxic Mold
The inhalation exposure to Stachybotrys chartarum (SC) has been playing a critical role in public health domain due to its ability to produce toxins (trichothecene and other mycotoxins), that are implicated in the cases of acute idiopathic pulmonary hemorrhages (AIPH) in infants. Despite multiple studies reporting an association of exposure to airborne mold with negative human health effects su...
متن کاملMold species in dust from the International Space Station identified and quantified by mold-specific quantitative PCR.
Dust was collected over a period of several weeks in 2007 from HEPA filters in the U.S. Laboratory Module of the International Space Station (ISS). The dust was returned on the Space Shuttle Atlantis, mixed, sieved and the DNA was extracted. Using a DNA-based method called mold-specific quantitative PCR (MSQPCR), 39 molds were measured in the dust. Potential opportunistic pathogens Aspergillus ...
متن کاملAssessment of mold contamination and physicochemical properties of crude palm oil sold in Jos, Nigeria
Due to increasing reports on poor-quality palm oil in the market, there has been a continual decrease in demand and revenue cum product rejection of palm oil sold in Jos, Nigeria. Hence, the significance of this work aims to moderate the microbial and physical qualities of crude palm oil sold in different major markets in order to increase revenue through quality control and quality assurance p...
