Accurate, economical and high-throughput gene and genome synthesis is essential to the development of synthetic biology and biotechnology. New large-scale gene synthesis methods harnessing the power of DNA microchips have recently been demonstrated. Yet, the technology is still compromised by a high occurrence of errors in the synthesized products. These errors still require substantial effort ...

Introd u ction Clinical chemistry, for decades restricted to a limited number of chemical tests, has, in recent years, through an increasing awareness of the value of the laboratory investigation of disease, and the introduc­ tion of automation and sophisticated instru­ mentation, expanded its field of operations to include a bewildering variety of tests. Advances in biochemical knowledge have ...

ABSTRACT: Degumming and neutralization processes are two essential stages carried out on crude edible oils in order to remove some unwanted impurities namely gums and free fatty acids. In this research study two popular less expensive commercial oils that are consumed to a great extent namely soyabean and sunflower seed oils are selected and subjected to both degumming and neutralization proces...
