CARTOSAT-1 satellite was launched in May 2005; the optical sensor is configured with two pushbroom cameras, namely Aft and Fore, tilted in along track direction by -5° and +26°, providing stereoscopic imagery in the same pass with a ground resolution of 2.5 m. Within the ISRO-ISPRS Cartosat Scientific Assessment Program (C-SAP), investigations were carried out on a stereopair belonging to the t...

A Gram-positive-staining, aerobic, non-motile, coccoid shaped, halotolerant bacterium (strain JG 06(T)) was isolated from the roots of Salicornia brachiata, an extreme halophyte. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequence showed that the novel strain had sequence similarities of 99.2% to Brachybacterium paraconglomeratum JCM 11608(T), 99.0% to Brachybacterium conglomeratum DSM 10241 ...

Thalassolituus oleivorans is one of the most prevalent marine gammaproteobacteria in microbial communities, emerging after oil spills in coastal, estuarine, and surface seawaters. Here, we present the assembled genome of strain T. oleivorans MIL-1 (DSM 14913(T)), which is 3,920,328 bp with a G+C content of 46.6%.

Liquid chromatography coupled to atmospheric pressure chemical ionization (APCI) and electrospray ionization (ESI) mass spectrometry (MS), in parallel, was used for simultaneous detection of bovine milk sphingolipids (BMS). APCI-MS mass spectra exhibited mostly ceramide-like fragment ions, [Cer-H(2)O+H](+) and [Cer-2H(2)O+H](+), which were used to identify individual molecular species of BMS ac...

OBJECTIVE To assess the validity and reliability of the Montgomery and Asberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS Thai) by comparing DSM-IV TR criteria and Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression (HRSD). MATERIAL AND METHOD Descriptive study. Subjects were recruited from the psychiatric out-patient clinic Siriraj Hospital. Subjects were assessed by MADRS Thai version and clinical interview. VALIDIT...

The Case of Mr A Mr A is a 73-year-old man whose wife of 50 years died 5 weeks previously. He has no appetite, has lost 8 lb in the past month, consistently awakens at 4 am, “can’t think straight,” and no longer takes any pleasure in customary activities. He denies feelings of guilt or worthlessness. Although he denies suicidal intent, he confides that he wishes to join his dearly departed wife...

Collective intelligence (CI) is a form of distributed that emerges in collaborative problem solving and decision making. This work investigates the potentials CI demand side management (DSM) urban areas. used to control energy performance representative groups buildings Stockholm, aiming increase flexibility climate resilience scale. CI-DSM developed based on simple communication strategy among...

The magnetic and magnetocaloric properties of Ni48Co2Mn35In15 were studied using magnetization and heat capacity measurements. The magnetic entropy change (DSM) was evaluated from both magnetizing and demagnetizing fields. An inverse DSM for the magnetizing and demagnetizing processes were found to be 20.5 and 18.5 J kg!1 K!1, respectively, for DH1⁄4 5 T at the martensitic transition (T1⁄4 TM)....
