Life cycle assessment is used to compare methods of regenerating the cofactor NAD(P)H, highlighting aspects with largest environmental burden aim directing future research.

Received (received date) Revised (revised date) Communicated by Editor's name ABSTRACT We deene a subclass of Petri nets called m?state n?cycle Petri nets, each of which can be thought of as a ring of n bounded (by m states) Petri nets using n potentially unbounded places as joins. Let Ring(n; l; m) be the class of m?state n?cycle Petri nets in which the largest integer mentioned can be represe...

Background: Recent studies have revealed that adiponectin, a novel adipocytokine, and its two receptors (AdipoR1 and AdipoR2) are involved in regulation of ovarian function in various farm animal species. The aim of this study was to investigate the gene expression pattern of Adiponectin and its receptors in ovarian cells of dominant (DFs) and non- dominant follicles (NDFs) in the bovine. Mater...

The cell cycle and transcription by RNA polymerase II (RNAP II) are closely related. They utilize shared components. RNAP II transcriptional activity is modulated during the cell cycle. Cell cycle dependent changes in the phosphorylation status of the carboxyl-terminal domain (CTD) of the largest subunit of RNAP II (RNAP II-LS) alter transcription. Several CTD kinases are members of the cyclin-...

Wireless sensors operating in harsh environments have the potential to be error-prone. This paper presents a distributive model-based diagnosis algorithm that identifies nonlinear sensor faults. The diagnosis algorithm has advantages over existing fault diagnosis methods such as centralized model-based and distributive model-free methods. An algorithm is presented for detecting common non-linea...
