the potential and performance of various gram-negative, gram-positive and archaeal wild type microorganisms, and bacterial mixed cultures, as well as the application of genetically engineered strains as whole-cell biocatalysts for glycerol-based polyhydroxyalkanoate production are analyzed and assessed. this encompasses the comparison of growth and polyhydroxyalkanoate accumulation kinetics, th...

many research studies have been performed on forced convection (active) solar dryers for fruit and vegetables. a short survey of these showed that applying the forced convection solar dryer not only significantly reduced the drying time but also resulted in many improvements in the quality of the dried products. active indirect and mixed-mode thin layer solar drying experiments were conducted o...

a strategy that integrates an organization's marketing goals into a cohesive whole, ideally drawn from market research, focuses on the ideal product mix in order to achieve maximum profit potential; the marketing strategy is set out as a marketing plan, a good idea, method, information, object, or service that is the end result of a process and serves as a need or want satisfier. it is usually ...

background: radon and its short-lived decay products are considered as the important sources of public exposure to natural radioactivity. the synergistic interaction between tobacco smoking and radon is known to be an actual problem. this study has provided a mathematical description and prognosis of the carcinogenic effects after combined action of radon with smoking. materials and methods: a ...

heat transfer mechanisms and the solidification process are simulated for a continuous casting machine and the geometric shape of the liquid pool is predicted considering different conditions. a heat transfer and solidification model is described for the continuous casting of steel slabs. the model has been established on the basis of the technical conditions of the slab caster in the continuou...

the excess accumulation of water in lung interstitial or alveolar is called pulmonary edema which is caused by factors that upset the normal starling balance in micro-circulation. pulmonary edema disturbs the alveolar gas exchanges which are normally regulated by the respiratory system. mathematical modelling of pulmonary edema may help to predict the lung conditions and the mechanisms involved...

in his post-critical writing, particularly prolegomena and both versions of preface in critique of pure reason, kant explains the importance and core function of mathematical antinomy in his philosophical project. this essay reviews and analyses the history and function of antinomies of pure reason, particularly mathematical antinomies and poses an account on kant’s proof for first and second a...
