Abstract. This paper proposes admittance matrix models to approach the behavior of six modern multiport functional blocks called: differential difference amplifier, differential difference operational floating amplifier, differential difference operational mirror amplifier, differential difference current conveyor, current backward transconductance amplifier and current differencing transconduc...

Exposure to flour dust can be found in the food industry and animal feed production. It may result in various adverse health outcomes from conjunctivitis to baker's asthma. In this paper, flour dust exposure in the above-mentioned occupational environments is characterized and its health effects are discussed. A peer-reviewed literature search was carried out and all available published materia...

The ab oscillations in absorbing matter are considered. The standard model based on optical potential does not describe the total ab transition probability as well as the channel corresponding to absorption of the b-particle. We calculate directly the off-diagonal matrix element in the framework of field-theoretical approach. Contrary to one-particle model, the final state absorption does not t...

This paper looks at a data set, called the SHARE 2010 collect, that has been designed to analyze the various impacts of illumination change on materials. Similar fabric materials were placed on different backgrounds where spectral signatures were analyzed to determined impacts of background adjacency. Hyperspectral, multispectral, and LiDAR modalities were used to image the panels in the above ...

The diphenylurea derivative thidiazuron induces a variety of cytokinin responses. Levels above 5 x 10(-9) molar and 4 x 10(-7) molar stimulate maximum soybean callus growth and radish cotyledon expansion, respectively. A wider range of dose response related effects follows thidiazuron induced tobacco plant regeneration. Analysis of soybean callus extracts strongly suggests that thidiazuron trea...

A 2 X = C 2 , respectively. As applications, we present necessary and sufficient condition for the previous matrix function f(X, Y) to be positive (negative), non-negative (positive) definite or nonsingular. We also characterize the relations between the Hermitian part of the solutions of the above-mentioned matrix equations. Furthermore, we establish necessary and sufficient conditions for the...

There is a variety of methods used for growing plants indoor for laboratory research. In most cases plant research requires germination and growth of plants. Often, people have adapted plant cultivation protocols to the conditions and materials at hand in their own laboratory and growth facilities. Here I will provide a guide for growing some of the most frequently used plant species for resear...

Rat neutrophils stimulated with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate, Bacillus Calmette-Guérin, zymosan A, and beta-1,3-D-glucan from Alcaligenes faecalis showed cytotoxicity to various tumor cells. Hydrogen peroxide was shown to be an effector molecule in tumor cytotoxicity by inhibition using various active oxygen scavengers. The following findings suggest that tumor cytotoxicity by rat neutrophil...

Intra-abdominal neoplasmatic testicular torsion is a very rare clinical condition, which is normally not considered during differential diagnosis of acute appendicitis. The above-mentioned is most often observed in patients after puberty, without any previous specific symptoms apart from the absence of the testis in the scrotum and inguinal canal or periodic pain in the right lower abdomen. The...

In recent times the cost of mobile communication has dropped significantly leading to a dramatic increase in mobile phone usage. The widespread usage has led mobiles to emerge as a strong alternative for other applications one of which is tracking. This has enabled law-enforcing agencies to detect overspeeding vehicles and organizations to keep track its employees. The 3 major ways of tracking ...
