Phenol tolerance and degradation using spent mycelium substrate of Hypsizygus ulmarius showed that ligninolytic media with carbon or nitrogen limitation gave highest growth (26.27sq.cm), while limitation of both nutrients reduced it to 8.1sq.cm. 7.68sq.cm was seen in non-ligninolytic media; simultaneous nutrient increase gave 1.16sq.cm. Tolerance to phenol was best in ligninolytic media with ca...

BACKGROUND Mass media exposure has been associated with an increased risk of eating pathology. It is unknown whether indirect media exposure--such as the proliferation of media exposure in an individual's social network--is also associated with eating disorders. AIMS To test hypotheses that both individual (direct) and social network (indirect) mass media exposures were associated with eating...

In this paper, differential invariants of null Cartan curves are studied in (n+2) dimensional Lorentzian similarity geometry. The fundamental theorem for a curve geometry is investigated and the characterization all self-similar parameterized by de Sitter parameter Minkowski space-time given.

There exist some news obviously classified into incorrect categories on Chinese web pages portal. The main reasons could be that it is difficult to automatically classify Chinese news and the news appearing on web pages portal are retrieved from many media sources. In this study, we integrate genetic algorithm and multi-class support vector machine (SVM) classifier to construct a Chinese news c...

The purpose of this study was to select a polymer for a simulated gastric media (simHGF) to obtain rheological properties similar to that of aspirated human gastric fluid (aspHGF). Rheological characterization showed that addition of 0.2% (w/v) MC 20.000 mPa·s to simHGF provided a simulated media with rheological properties similar to that of aspHGF. INTRODUCTION Many efforts have been made tow...
