The aim of the present work was to evaluate the influence of the lack of urease activity in some Streptococcus thermophilus strains on the primary metabolism during lactic acid fermentation. A comparison of the kinetics of the lactic acid process with the participation of ureautilizing and urease deficient streptococcal strains was performed. It was found that the lack of urease activity in the...

• Pink highlight indicates a standard or objective that is supported by the use of Webspiration Classroom. • Green note annotation includes the names of a Webspiration Classroom template that corresponds to the highlighted standard. These templates are a part of the software program and act as starters or frameworks for student work. Meeting curriculum standards is a major focus in education to...

We introduce the concept of a 2-starter in a groupG of odd order.We prove that any 2-factorization of the complete graph admitting G as a sharply vertex transitive automorphism group is equivalent to a suitable 2-starter in G. Some classes of 2-starters are studied, with special attention given to those leading to solutions of some Oberwolfach or Hamilton–Waterloo problems. © 2005 Elsevier Inc....

Mobile computing is heavily dependent on battery life. Although circuit designs already take advantage of microelectronics and microarchitecture-level optimization techniques, device longevity can be further extended through energy aware compilation techniques. This communication gives an overview of software-based power aware techniques, namely re-starters to make temporary processor state vis...
