ATP-sulfurylase from the cyanobacterium Synechococcus 6301 was regulated in vivo during growth in batch culture. The activity was highest at the third day after inoculation, declining afterwards to a level found in resting cells. During growth with air supplemented with 2% CO, this activity increased 3-fold compared to controls grown with normal air as C 0 2 source. Addition o f either nitrite ...

We thoroughly examine the experimental batch plant in its two major operation modes: a normal operation mode and a failure operation mode. In order to do so, we use discrete condition/event system as well as timed automata for the specification and the model checking tools SMV, Kronos and HyTech for verification.

conclusions experimental results showed that mcns is an excellent sorbent for removal of mercury ions from petrochemical waste water. in addition, highly complex matrix of this waste does not affect the adsorption capability of mcns. results an effective hg (ii) removal (99.8%) was obtained at ph 6, with 50 mg of mcns for an initial concentration of this ion in petrochemical waste water (5.63 m...

Development of real-time sensor based on the target-specific probe that make possible sensitive, rapid and selective detection and monitoring of the particular antigen molecules could be of substantial importance to the many applications. Because of its high specificity to the target molecules, excellent temperature stability, and easy production, bacterial phage might serve as a powerful biore...

Continuous flow chemistry as a process intensification tool is well known. However, its ability to enable chemists to perform reactions which are not possible in batch is less well studied or understood. Here we present an example, where a new reactivity pattern and extended reaction scope has been achieved by transferring a reaction from batch mode to flow. This new reactivity can be explained...

Ferrites and lossy ceramics, used in HOM (higher order mode) loads for superconducting accelerators, have shortcomings such as poor batch-to-batch reproducibility of electromagnetic properties, extremely low electric conductivity at cryogenic temperatures leading to accumulation of charge on the material surface, brittleness, which may cause contamination of the nearby SRF cavities by lossy dus...

To examine the effect of vasopressin on the sarcolemmal ATP-sensitive K (K(ATP)) channel, cell-attached, insideout and open-cell-attached methods of patch clamp techniques were used in isolated guinea pig ventricular myocytes. Suppressing both glycolytic and oxidative ATP production attained K(ATP) channel activation. In the cell-attached mode, vasopressin inhibited KATP channels in a concentra...

We report on and provide a detailed characterization of the performance and properties of a recently developed, all Escherichia coli, cell-free transcription and translation system. Gene expression is entirely based on the endogenous translation components and transcription machinery provided by an E. coli cytoplasmic extract, thus expanding the repertoire of regulatory parts to hundreds of ele...

Performance of distributed systems can be improved from scheduling of tasks aspect. A good scheduling algorithm can enhance the performance of the distributed system significantly. In this paper we have compared the performance of batch mode and immediate mode schedulers in heterogeneous distributed computing environment. An immediate mode scheduler only considers a single task for scheduling o...

With the continuous development of e-business, e-business distribution center operating mode is gradually changing. Small batch and more frequency is the characteristics of the e-business. The new characteristics gives birth to new distribution center picking mode. This paper analyzes disadvantaged of the business mode of the current e-business distribution center, put forward a new type of e-b...
