Via a detailed analysis and review of the currently available literature, this work aims at clarifying the phenomena, physical and mathematical, underpinning the methodologies and results in forest bioenergy carbon accounting. The large scale techno-economic models indicate that an increased forest stemwood removal for bioenergy purposes may cause either a decrease of the forest carbon stock (o...

The benefits of Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM) are widely known but its recommendations remain thinly implemented. Designing wastewater treatment plants for reuse in irrigation is a particularly underutilized IWRM opportunity that could potentially increase agricultural yields, conserve surface water, offset chemical fertilizer demand, and reduce the costs of wastewater treatment ...

Recently, a lot of attention has been payed to the study of a possible connection between thermal leptogenesis and neutrino masses [2], mixing and leptonic CP violation [3]. For instance, it is now known that an acceptable value for the baryon asymmetry of the Universe (BAU) requires the low-energy Majorana neutrinos to be lighter than 0.12 − 0.15 eV. Moreover, successful thermal leptogenesis i...

Microemulsion based cyclosporine has demonstrated better absorption with laser pharmacokinetic variability. For the clinical use of any new microemulsion based product, bioequivalence testing with existing formulation is necessary. Panimun Bioral (Test) and Sandimmun Neoral (Reference) were evaluated in different transplant centers using both volunteers as well as renal transplant patients. All...

Improvised formulation technology In the early 1990s, FDCs of antitubercular drugs were not advocated because of their relatively poor bioavailability and short shelf life. [3] With the present improved formulation technologies, the currently available FDCs are bioequivalent to single drug reference products. Moreover, the stability of these FDCs even after six months in tropical countries is w...

Alprazolam immediate release (IR) tablets are currently approved for the management of anxiety disorder or the short-term relief of symptoms of anxiety. A sublingual (SL) formulation of alprazolam, which disintegrates in the mouth without the need for additional fluids, has been developed. The aim of this study was to determine if the alprazolam SL 1 mg tablet was bioequivalent to the alprazola...

In this section, we present a stylized formal model to illustrate the effect of coupons on behavior, emphasizing the incentives generated by insurance. Throughout, we assume that a bioequivalent generic for the branded drug is available and is produced by several generic firms. We further assume that the generic firms produce undifferentiated products and price at marginal cost. This assumption...

Twenty two potato accessions from USA were evaluated for nutrient contents. Two Bangladeshi varieties were also included for comparison. Nutritional analyses were performed in the Department of Agricultural Chemistry, BAU during November, 2014 to April, 2015. Considering macro nutrient content, the highest values of N, P, K and S were found in the accession AC 10062 whereas Ca and Mg contents w...
