Reaction Kinetics and Modelling of the Hybrid Sulfur Ammonia Solar Thermochemical Water-Splitting Cycle in Aerosol Phase
(2020-12-02)
The Hybrid Sulfur Ammonia Solar Thermochemical Water splitting cycle (HySA TCWSC) had proven to successfully split water to produce Hydrogen, the renewable source of energy. However, the process was found to be energy ...
Toward Point-of care Detection of Tuberculosis Using a Magnetic Cell Separation Microfluidic Platform
(2019-12-02)
Tuberculosis (TB) is a deadly disease that has claimed the lives of many across the world. According to the data from the Center for Diseases Control and Prevention (CDC), one-fourth of the world's population was infected ...
Modeling and Predicting Damage in Reinforced Concrete Coupled Walls
(2020-12-08)
Reinforced coupled wall systems are one of the efficient lateral resistance systems for earthquakes. A coupled wall system consists of two or more wall piers connected by link or coupling beams. The coupled walls, relative ...
Can the Use of Older-generation Beta-lactam Antibiotics in Livestock Production Over-select for Beta-lactamases of Greatest Consequence for Human Medicine?
(2020-11-27)
We tested the potential and extent to which β-lactam antimicrobials already approved for use in U.S. livestock operations may differentially select for resistance to unapproved highest priority antibiotics such as carbapenems. ...
THE EQUINE FECAL MICROBIOME - EFFECTS OF DIET, ANTIMICROBIALS, AND COLITIS
(2020-11-04)
The microbiome of the equine gastrointestinal tract (GIT) form a symbiotic relationship with the horse, and play a critical role in nutrition, metabolism, and immunity. This work utilized 16S rRNA sequencing and metabolomics ...

(2020-11-20)
The deep learning, which is a machine learning method based on artificial neural networks, enables cutting edge technologies such as autonomous driving, collision avoidance, activity recognition, etc. While various machine ...
Novel Game-Based-Learning Approach in Teaching Self-Regulation Strategies to Children
(2020-01-09)
Exploration of research linked to game-based-learning has suggested evidence that this approach may be suitable in encouraging children to learn about self-regulation or self-control.
During early childhood, it is especially ...
Investigating Salinity Tolerance in Rice Through Mapping QTLs for Reproductive-Stage Tolerance and Guide RNA Validation for Gene Editing of the HKT Family
(2020-11-25)
Salinity is the most extensive problem in coastal rice eco-systems and tolerance at reproductive stage of rice is crucial for higher grain yield. In this study, two salt-tolerant varieties, CSR28 and Hasawi, and a ...
Production of Microalgae-based Protein Products from Economics and Bioprocessing Perspectives
(2020-12-02)
The need for developing alternative protein sources to meet future food demand has driven microalgae to re-emerge as a promising biomass source. Considering its ability to produce quality protein, microalgae has been studied ...
