Regression benchmarking is a methodology for detecting performance changes in software by periodic benchmarking. Detecting performance regressions in particular helps to improve software quality, similarly as regression testing, which however focuses only on software functionality. To achieve an acceptable level of false alarms, regression benchmarking requires a statistically sound planning an...

There are a number of pressures on researchers in academia and industry to behave unethically or compromise their ethical standards, for instance in order to obtain funding or publish frequently. In this paper a case study of Deaf telephony is used to discuss the pressures to unethical behaviour in terms of withholding information or misleading participants that can result from mono-disciplinar...

The magnetic permeabiility and the thickness of the socalled %on"magnetic grain boundary were studied for a MgMnZn-femte with composition M~,J~,&ln,lFe,,,03,m For the mono-domain situation the grain size dependence of the effective initial permeability is well described by the nonmagnetic grain boundary model. A gradual increase of permeability with grain size around the transition from monoto ...

Objective(s): Detection of circulating Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tuberculosis) antigens is promising in Tuberculosis (TB) diagnosis. However, not a single antigen marker has been found to be widely expressed in all TB patients. This study is aimed to prepare broadly reactive polyclonal antibodies targeting multiple antigen markers (multi-target antibodies) and evaluate their efficacies in ...

s of papers 65 age blood Mono from 24 birds per diet were evaluated. The percentage phagocytic blood Mono was maximized at an A:L ratio of 1.25 although there was an overall decrease in Mono and nitrite production at 32 C. The number of E. Coli phagocytized per Mono and nitrite production 40 h post-LPS, but not 24 h post-LPS, decreased with A:L ratio. Numerically, the greatest nitrite productio...

The effects of Mono sodium glutamate on smooth muscles were studied using the guinea-pig isolated ileum. Mono sodium glutamate produced spasmogenic effect. Atropine blocked the contractile response elicited by Mono sodium glutamate whereas mepyramine and hexamethonium failed to do so. These findings suggest a cholinergic involvement at post ganglionic site of action.

     Essential oil of the orange peel which was extracted by hydrodistillation method showed 50 different mono- and sesquiterpenes on GC-MS analysis, in ...

The interactions of mono-rhamnolipids (mono-RLs) with model membranes were investigated through a biomimetic approach using phospholipid-based liposomes immobilized on gold substrate and also by the multiparametric surface plasmon resonance (MP-SPR) technique. Biotinylated bound onto an SPR chip coated streptavidin layer. resulting MP-SPR signal proved efficient binding liposomes. thickness lip...
