Haddock Melanogrammus aeglefinus in the North sea increased their distributional range when more abundant, but this density dependent habitat selection (DDHS) explained only a small part of the year-on-year variation in distribution patterns. The condition of haddock was examined at 24 sites in the North Sea in August and September 2004 and related to their abundance, to examine if the ideal fr...

The bio-chemical changes which occur in fish tissues are due to two factors, autolysis and bacterial action. As early as 1903, Muller reported that changes due to autolysis took place when sterile fish tissues were incubated. More recently attention has been focussed on the relative importance of these two causes of bio-chemical change. Reed, Rice and Sinclair (1929) presented evidence that aut...

Molecular-docking programs coupled with suitable scoring functions are now established and very useful tools enabling computational chemists to rapidly screen large chemical databases and thereby to identify promising candidate compounds for further experimental processing. In a broader scenario, predicting binding affinity is one of the most critical and challenging components of computer-aide...

We examined the habitat of juvenile haddock on the eastern Scotian Shelf (off Nova Scotia, Canada) in relation to grab-sampled benthic macrofaunal invertebrate species assemblages in order to determine whether there were significant differences in benthic macrofauna between areas of historically persistent high and low juvenile haddock abundance. Our analyses were conducted over two spatial sca...

This study was conducted to determine the commercial feasibility of feeding a 15% ground flaxseed diet to finishing hogs for up to 42 d before slaughter and to compare the fatty acid composition of the resulting pork products with commercially produced haddock and mackerel. Eighty-seven pigs were fed a control diet (predominantly corn, soybean meal-based) and then a similar diet containing 15% ...

The HADDOCK score, a scoring function for both protein-protein and protein-nucleic acid modeling, has been successful in selecting near-native docking poses in a variety of cases, including those of the CAPRI blind prediction experiment. However, it has yet to be optimized for small molecules, and in particular inhibitors of protein-protein interactions, that constitute an "unmined gold reserve...

The emergence of more powerful and resourceful mobile devices, as well as new wireless communication technologies, is turning the concept of mobile ad-hoc networking into a viable and promising solution for ubiquitous information sharing. However, the inherent characteristics of mobile ad-hoc networks bring up important challenges for any embedded application developed with the goal of informat...
