Recent data suggest important biological roles for oxidative modifications of methylated cytosines, specifically hydroxymethylation, formylation and carboxylation. Several assays are now available for profiling these DNA modifications genome-wide as well as in targeted, locus-specific settings. Here we present BiQ Analyzer HiMod, a user-friendly software tool for sequence alignment, quality con...

1. Reference values for the plasma creatinine were established using the alkaline picrate method with the Greiner Selective Analyzer GSA II in relation to the Cr 51-EDTA Clearance. Individuals with normal GFR between 93 to 159 ml/min/1.73 m2 had creatinine values in men (n = 65) from 53.7 to 119.5 mumol/l (0.61 to 1.35 mg/100 ml) and in women (n = 59) from 37.7 to 107 mumol/l (0.42 to 121 mg/10...

ECR Spotlight is a series of interviews with early-career authors from selection papers published in Journal Experimental Biology and aims to promote not only the diversity researchers (ECRs) working experimental biology during our centenary year but also huge variety animals physiological systems that are essential for ‘comparative’ approach. Elisa Thoral an author on ‘ Temperature-dependent m...

A video content analysis tool for video coding is presented. The underlying assumption of our approach is that the textures in a video scene can be labeled subjectively relevant or irrelevant. Relevant textures are defined as containing subjectively meaningful details, while irrelevant textures contain less important subjective details. We apply this idea to video coding using a texture analyze...

This paper presents a complete network analyzer development for network delay in campus environment. The purpose of this study is to define the accuracy of network analyzer development with independent data, real network and OPNET simulation tool. The network delay will measure based on transmission delay and propagation delay. This network analyzer software will test on delay generated by the ...

A fluorometric Fast Analyzer has been developed, based on the GeMSAEC Fast Analyzer principle. Potential applications of a multiple-cuvet fluorometric analyzer are considered. A primary concern must be referencing enzyme activity assays and enzymic substrate analyses. Once adequate referencing techniques are developed, adaptation of analyses can proceed. The advantages of fluorescence procedure...

To the best of our knowledge, we propose the first motion-free laser beam propagation analyzer with a hybrid design using a digital micromirror device (DMD) and a liquid electronically controlled variable focus lens (ECVFL). Unlike prior analyzers that require profiling the beam at multiple locations along the light propagation axis, the proposed analyzer profiles the beam at the same plane for...

In this paper the Markov analyzer MOSES (MOdelling, Speci cation and Evaluation of Computer Systems) and the model description languageMOSLANG { both developed at the Institute for Operating Systems at the University of Erlangen{Nuernberg { are described using two examples. To evaluate the performance of a computer system the system has to be specied. In this paper the model description languag...

The multichannel analyzer (MCA) is an important laboratory instrument which can measure distributions of input signals consisting of pulses. It operates in two different modes: pulse height analyzer (PHA) mode, and multichannel scaler (MCS) mode. In PHA mode, the input pulses are sorted into bins (channels) according to their amplitude, while in MCS mode they are sorted according to the time wh...
