The most common method for inspection of insulators is to measure the change of electrical characteristics such as electric resistance and partial discharge.However, even if there is no physical damage, these values vary depending on the temperature, humidity, and chloride content of the atmosphere.In this respect, an alternative to such methods ca
Conservation and diversification of an ancestral chordate gene regulatory network for dorsoventral patterning.
Formation of a dorsoventral axis is a key event in the early development of most animal embryos.It is well established that bone morphogenetic proteins (Bmps) and Wnts are key mediators of dorsoventral patterning in vertebrates.In the cephalochordate amphioxus, genes encoding Bmps and transcription factors downstream of Bmp signaling such as Vent a
Biotechnological 2-Phenylethanol Production: Recent Developments
2-Phenylethanol (2-PE) is a key flavor compound with a rose-like scent, used in the cosmetics, perfume, home care and food industries.This aroma compound can be obtained naturally from various flowers, however chemical synthesis is the most used route to meet market demand.The increasing interest in natural products has led to the development of mo
Novel Strategies for Spatiotemporal and Controlled BMP-2 Delivery in Bone Tissue Engineering
Bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2) has been commercially approved by the Food and Drug Administration for use in bone defects and diseases.BMP-2 promotes osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells.In bone tissue engineering, BMP-2 incorporated into scaffolds can be used for stimulating bone regeneration in organoid construction, drug te
Mixed Incoherent Far-Field and Near-Field Source Localization under Uniform Circular Array
A high-accuracy algorithm is presented for the localization of mixed incoherent near-field and far-field narrow-band sources under uniform a&d ej-123 circular array (UCA).Herein, considering that it is difficult to classify the mixed sources, we first decouple mixed sources’ angles and ranges by calculating centro-symmetric sensors’ pha
