It may be argued to be a matter of con...

Three crystallization methods for growing large high-quality protein crystals, i.e. crystallization in the presence of a semi-solid agarose gel, top-seeded solution growth (TSSG) and a large-scale hanging-drop method, have previously been presented. In this study the effectiveness of crystallization in the presence of a semi-solid agarose gel has been further evaluated by crystallizing addition...

In this paper we first explain the Knowledge Extraction (KE) process from World Wide Web (WWW) using Search engines. Then we explore the PageRank algorithm of Google Search engine (one of the famous link based search engine) with its hidden Markov analysis. In that we also explore one of the problems of Link based ranking algorithms called hanging pages or dangling pages (pages without any forw...

Asymmetrical hand use by rhesus monkeys (Macaca mulatta) was investigated in a series of tactually and visually guided tasks. The 1st experiment recorded manual preferences of 29 monkeys for solving a haptic discrimination task in a hanging posture. There was a left-hand population bias: 21 monkeys had a left-hand bias, 4 a right-hand bias, and 4 no bias. The 2nd experiment, 4 tasks with 23 to ...
