We study the combinatorics of vtm, a variant of the Thue-Morse word generated by the non-uniform morphism 0 7! 012, 1 7! 02, 2 7! 1 starting with 0. This infinite ternary sequence appears a lot in the literature and finds applications in several fields such as combinatorics on words; for example, in pattern avoidance it is often used to construct infinite words avoiding given patterns. It has b...

Surface properties canmarkedly affect themechanical behavior of structural thin films used inmicroelectromechanical systems (MEMS) applications. This study highlights the striking difference in the sidewall surface morphology of n+-type polysilicon films from two popular MEMS processes and its effect on fracture and fatigue properties. The sidewall surface roughness wasmeasured using atomic for...

Gait has been shown to be an efficient biometric feature for human identification at a distance from a camera. However, performance of gait recognition can be affected by various problems. One of the serious problems is view change which can be caused by change of walking direction and/or change of camera viewpoint. This leads to a consequent difficulty of across-view gait recognition where pro...

Nasopharyngeal swab collection for SARS-CoV-2 examination by RT-PCR requires Viral Transport Medium (VTM) using VTM non-activated and inactivated. This study determined the difference in CT values SARS CoV-2 inactivated VTM. is a comparative analytical with cross-sectional method 20 confirmed positive samples at RSU. Dr. Suyoto was analyzed T-Independent test (N gene) Mann-Whitney (ORF1ab SPSS ...

BACKGROUND Vanda tessellata (Orchidaceae) has been used in different sorts of ailments such as inflammations, rheumatism, dysentery, bronchitis, dyspepsia and fever in folk medicine. In this study we evaluated the antinociceptive and cytotoxic effect of methanol and aqueous extracts of V. tessellata leaf. METHODS Oral administration of V. tessellata aqueous (VTA) and methanol (VTM) leaf extra...

While meeting the pandemic demand of SARS-CoV-2 testing, clinical laboratories worldwide tend to adopt new test systems offering cost-effective and faster outcomes. However, reliability results has paramount importance in management such a health crisis. Therefore, this study sought determine accuracy from novel duplex Microchip RT-PCR system using patient saliva samples nasal swabs stabilized ...

Abstract The objective of these studies was to evaluate if vascularity the fetal part placenta, termed cotyledon (COT), crossbreed Angus heifers is affected by vitamin and mineral (VTM) and/or energy (NRG) supplementation during pregnancy. We hypothesized that dietary with VTM NRG would improve fetoplacental vascular development, which an important index placental function. Two experiments were...

Most mammals show daily rhythms in sleep and wakefulness controlled by the primary circadian pacemaker, the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN). Regardless of whether a species is diurnal or nocturnal, neural activity in the SCN and expression of the immediate-early gene product Fos increases during the light phase of the cycle. This study investigated daily patterns of Fos expression in brain areas ...

When helicopters operate close to the ground in desert conditions, the rotor wake can entrain large amounts of dust into the flow field surrounding the aircraft. This entrainment of dust can result in the potentially dangerous condition known as brownout where the pilot loses situational awareness. Understanding the physics that governs the entrainment of dust from the ground may eventually all...
