This paper aims at designing an automated system to monitor the production in a pencil industry. The objectives of this work is to count the number of pencils in each pencil case and compare the results to check if desired number of pencils are present. The packets where the number of pencils are not equal to desired is diverted from production line, rest cases which pass the quantity check is ...

Caffeine (1, 3, 7-trimethylxanthine) and theobromine (3, 7-dimethylxanthine) are the major purine alkaloids in plants, e.g., tea (Camellia sinensis) and coffee (Coffea arabica). Caffeine is a major component of coffee and is used widely in food and beverage industries. Most of the enzymes involved in the caffeine biosynthetic pathway have been reported previously. Here, we demonstrated the bios...

Ethanol production by microorganisms is an important renewable energy source. Most processes involve fermentation of sugars from plant feedstock, but there is increasing interest in direct ethanol production by photosynthetic organisms. To facilitate this, a high-throughput screening technique for the detection of ethanol is required. Here, a method for the quantitative detection of ethanol in ...

tension-leg platform (tlp) is a vertically moored floating structure. the platform is permanently mooredby tendons. surge equation of motion of tlp is highly nonlinear because of large displacement and it should be solved with perturbation parameter in time domain. this paper compare the dynamic motion responses of a tlp in regular sea waves obtained by applying three method in time domain usin...

generally human vision system searches for salient regions and movements in video scenes to lessen the search space and effort. using visual saliency map for modelling gives important information for understanding in many applications. in this paper we present a simple method with low computation load using visual saliency map for background subtraction in video stream. the proposed technique i...

Despite recent advances in genome editing capabilities for the model organism Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the chromosomal integration of large biochemical pathways for stable industrial production remains challenging. In this work, we developed a simple platform for high-efficiency, single-step, markerless, multi-copy chromosomal integration of full biochemical pathways in Saccharomyces cerevisia...

Driven by an increasing number of studies demonstrating its relevance to a broad variety of disease states, the bioenergy production phenotype has been widely characterized at the bulk sample level. Its cell-to-cell variability, a key player associated with cancer cell survival and recurrence, however, remains poorly understood due to ensemble averaging of the current approaches. We present a t...

At present, in China, small farmers decentralized production doesn’t keep pace with the agricultural products market development requirements. This paper provides a new way by using the cloud computing technology to design and implement the agricultural production and marketing information matching recommendation system in the cloud computing environment. The platform collects agricultural mark...

background: phic31 integrase system provides a new platform in various felid of research, mainly in gene therapy and creation of transgenic animals. this system enables integration of exogenous dna into preferred locations in mammalian genomes, which results in robust, long-term expression of the integrated transgene.objectives: identification of a novel pseudo attp site.materials and methods: ...
