Characterization of a secreted escherichia coli 086a:K61 protease that inactivates human coagulation FV
(2011-08-01)
Background: Escherichia coli (E.coli) O86a:K61 belongs to the Enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) group of pathogens. Acute gastroenteritis affects 2-4 billion people annually and EPEC is associated with 10-40% of hospitalized ...
Characterization of novel genetic alleles of cellulose synthase
(2011-01-01)
Cellulose is the most abundant polymer on earth. Despite this, relatively little is known about the proteins and biochemical mechanisms governing cellulose biosynthesis. Only in the past 10 years since the sequencing of ...
Mathematical modelling of the plunger pump operation with numerical methods for simulating the flow across the valve
(2011-12-01)
Plunger pumps are needed for heavy duty sludge pumping at wastewater treatment
facilities. America's leading pump manufacturer Wastecorp Inc. brought
their plunger pump problem to us in late 2009. It was found that when ...
Numerical methods for simulating diffusion in cellular media
(2011-12-01)
Diffusion imaging is a relatively recent branch of magnetic resonance imaging that
produces images of human physiology through diffusion of water molecules within the
body. One difficulty in calculating diffusion ...
