The purpose of the article is the establishment of the tightness of the connection between the various sources of financing and the introduction of innovations at enterprises. In the process of research such scientific methods have been used: modeling – to determine the influence of the source of funding for innovation activities, on the number of new technological processes introduced and the ...

Through their planning processes, Bedfordshire CCG (BCCG) recognised the need to both change the services they commission and the way they commission services. They decided to take a whole systems approach to redesigning their Musculoskeletal care (MSK) service, which at the time represented the fourth highest area of spend but delivered a fragmented, variable and inequitable service for patients.

In this work we present, for the first time, a rapid, compact and innovative method for detection of Ochratoxin A (OTA) based on hydrogenated amorphous silicon (aSi:H) sensors. 2 μl of acidified toluene containing OTA at different concentrations were spotted on the silica side of a High Performance Thin Layer Cromatography plate and aligned with a a-Si:H p-i-n photodiode deposited by Plasma Enh...

for a fiber optical surface plasmon resonance (spr) sensor a short part of its cladding should be removed to coat a thin layer of a metal. usually this is problematic when an optical fiber with small core diameter is used. in this paper, a new method using µliter droplet of the hf acid for short fiber optical taper fabrication is reported. using this method in a multi-mode optical fiber with th...
