Organizational responses to technological discontinuities: the case of the American College of Radiology (ACR)
… response of the American College of Radiology (ACR) to the emergence of nuclear magnetic resonance imaging technology (NMR), aims to contribute to this well-established research tradition in three distinct and important ways. First, it focuses on a fundamentally different type of organization, a …

Investigation of pressure-tube and calandria-tube deformation following a single channel blockage event in ACR-700
The ACR-700 is an advanced pressure-tube (PT) reactor being developed by Atomic Energy of Canada Limited (AECL). As in conventional CANDU reactors, the PTs are horizontal. Each PT is surrounded by a calandria tube (CT), and the gap in between is filled with carbon dioxide gas. The space between the …

Biochemical and molecular basis for metabolism-based atrazine resistance in Amaranthus tuberculatus
… tuberculatus) from central Illinois (designated ACR and MCR) did not possess a point mutation in psbA (encoding the D1 protein, the target site for atrazine), but rapid production of atrazine-glutathione conjugates indicated that elevated rates of metabolism may be a major resistance mechanism. …

Investigation of novel biomarkers associated with renal disease
… (eGFR) and urinary albumin to creatinine ratio (ACR) were tested in population-based and clinically derived populations. Measurements of retinal thickness were also taken and their association with eGFR tested. Overall, no evidence of an association between retinal microvascular calibres and …

Distinct biochemical and molecular mechanisms confer resistance to mesotrione and atrazine in a multiple herbicide-resistant waterhemp population
… but mesotrione-sensitive population (ACR), and a herbicide-sensitive population (WCS) was also used for comparison. Mesotrione resistance was not due to an alteration in HPPD sequence, HPPD expression, or reduced herbicide absorption. Metabolism studies showed significantly lower level …

A study of the thermal and optical characteristics of radiometric channels for earth radiation budget applications
… model, the nonscanner active cavity radiometer (ACR) thermal noise is studied. This study reveals that radiative emission and scattering by the surrounding parts of the nonscanner cavity are acceptably small. The dynamic electrothermal model is also used to compute the ACR instrument transfer …
