Display of peptides on the surface of bacteria offers many new and exciting applications in biotechnology. Fimbriae is a good candidate for epitope display on the surface of bacteria. The potential of CS3 fimbriae of enterotoxigenic E. coli as a display system has been investigated. A novel cell surface display system with metal binding property was developed by using CS3 fimbriae. Short metal ...

let g = (v,e) be a locally finite graph, i.e. a graph in which every vertex has finitely many adjacent vertices. in this paper, we associate a topology to g, called graphic topology of g and we show that it is an alexandroff topology, i.e. a topology in which intersec- tion of every family of open sets is open. then we investigate some properties of this topology. our motivation is to give an e...

let ? be an open connected subset of the complex plane c and let t be a bounded linear operator on a hilbert space h. for ? in ? let e the orthogonal projection onto the null-space of t-?i . we discuss the necessary and sufficient conditions for the map ?? to b e continuous on ?. a generalized gram- schmidt process is also given.

E-learning applications are becoming commonplace in most higher education institutions, and some institutions have implemented open source applications such as course management systems and electronic portfolios. These e-learning applications initiatives are the first step to moving away from proprietary software such as Blackboard and WEBCT toward open source. With open source, higher educatio...
