OBJECTIVE To pilot test an inexpensive, home-based water decontamination and storage system in a low-income neighborhood of Karachi. METHODS Fifty households received a 20-L plastic water storage vessel with a high-quality spout and a regular supply of diluted hypochlorite solution. Twenty-five control households were recruited. Water samples were collected at baseline and during unannounced ...

We analyze a long-wavelength model of viscous entrainment from a nozzle and show that, when appropriate large-scale boundary conditions are imposed, the entrainment transition can become continuous. As the entrainment threshold is approached from above, the entrained steady-state spout becomes vanishingly thin compared to the nozzle radius and takes the form of a thin tendril emerging from a ba...

ammonium perchlorate particles have been dried in a laboratory spouted bed dryer (screen-bottomed type) which is categorized as a fluidized bed dryer. the solid particles obtained in this process of drying were semi-porous and known as the group d of geldart classification. the variations of moisture content with resident time, the effects of bed height on the pressure drop, and the influence o...

Abstract GDart is an ensemble of tools allowing dynamic symbolic execution JVM programs. The engine decomposed into three different components: a decision (DSE), concolic executor (SPouT), and SMT solver backend meta-strategy solving problems (JConstraints). component loosely coupled with the by newly introduced communication protocol. At SV-COMP 2022, solved 471 586 tasks finding more correct ...

Background/Objective: Numerous studies have reported restoring motor function through spinal cord stimulation in a rodent injury model; however, replicating sensory information has not been thoroughly tested.We previously trained rats to detect artificial sensations which lead the question if this can be generated injured rat. Our study begins address by first validating model test. hypothesis ...

Emg1 was previously shown to be required for maturation of the 18S rRNA and biogenesis of the 40S ribosomal subunit. Here we report the determination of the crystal structure of Emg1 at 2 A resolution in complex with the methyl donor, S-adenosyl-methionine (SAM). This structure identifies Emg1 as a novel member of the alpha/beta knot fold methyltransferase (SPOUT) superfamily. In addition to th...
