The term C-MAC Miller is confusing. I had read this over several times thinking that Storz had in fact produced a C-Miller blade.

We greatly appreciate this reviewers’ comment, since we were not aware of the current description being a basis for m...

in this study, the effect of carbon and nitrogen sources, on production of yeast biomass was determined as well as the efficacy of various formulations of candida membranifaciens to decrease blue mold on apple. the media containing sugar cane molasses as carbon sources caused more yeast growth than the media supplemented with permeate powder. yeast extract as nitrogen source produced higher bio...

We focus on two distinctive features of HTTP-based C&C traffic by analyzing HTTP activity sets. First, C&Cs show a few connections at a time (low-density).
