Characterisation of phenol hydroxylase and its auxiliary proteins, DmpM and DmpK, from pseudomonas spl Strain CF600
Phenol hydroxylase from Pseudomonas sp. strain CF600 is an enzyme comprising three components: DmpP, a reductase containing an FAD and a [2Fe-2S] cluster; DmpM, an activator protein required for efficient catalysis; and DmpLNO, an oxygenase containing a binuclear iron cluster. The oxygenase …

Antioxidant properties and anti-cancer effects of polyphenols in sweetpotato leaves
… the root is widely consumed, sweetpotato leaves (SPL) are often discarded and are only consumed in a few countries. In the United States, SPL consumption is limited to private gardens, particularly in the Southeastern United States. Not only are SPL a good source of nutrients such as vitamins and …

Microelectromechanical and Microfluidic Systems for Scanning Probe Lithography
… challenges faced by traditional single-probe SPL technology---lithography throughput and probe coating technique. System-level improvements of SPL have been successfully achieved. First, micromachined, thermally actuated cantilever probe arrays are developed to improve the throughput and …

SECURE PLANT FERTILITY IN A CHANGING CLIMATE
… many genes are involved. SPOROCYTELESS/NOZZLE (SPL/NZZ) is considered the master regulator of this process since its mutant cannot specify the MMC. It encodes a transcriptional repressor protein, which is present in all land plants. Despite the importance of this gene, its role is not completely …

Nervonic Acid-enriched Structured Lipids: Preparation, Encapsulation, Digestion and Storage Stability
… of NA-enriched structured phospholipid (SPL), followed by the in vitro digestion and storage stability of encapsulated NA-enriched SPL. A preparation method was established to extract pure NA crystals of up to 97.37% from Malania oleifera oil, followed by synthesising NA-enriched …

Adaptive Collocated Feedback for Noise Absorption in Acoustic Enclosures
… of high interior sound pressure levels (SPL) experienced during launch within launch vehicle payload fairings. Two acoustic enclosures are used in the research: the first being a symmetric cylindrical duct and the other being a full scale model of a payload fairing. The symmetric …

Passive Noise Control in Incubators
… are known to produce high Sound Pressure Levels (SPL) that can have detrimental effects on infants. Currently measured SPL in NICU's using traditional incubators are above the recommended 45 dB[A] threshold value [1]. Due to operating equipment and environmental noise, the sound level that is …

Active control of sound transmission through plates in a reverberant environment
… Average reduction of sound pressure level (SPL) on the order of 20 dB or 13 dB are achieved when the plate vibrates at mode (3,1) or (3,3). Microphone sensor locations are shown to influence the controlled sound field, those located where the direct sound field is dominant result in larger …

Systematic techniques for efficiently checking Software Product Lines
A Software Product Line (SPL) is a family of related programs, which of each is defined by a combination of features. By developing related programs together, an SPL simultaneously reduces programming effort and satisfies multiple sets of requirements. Testing an SPL efficiently is challenging …

Automatic Optimization of DSP Algorithms
… and optimization techniques utilized by the SPL compiler, empirical data is presented showing the efficiency of the resulting C/FORTRAN code. Timings are compared, using fast Fourier transform (FFT), Walsh-Hadama transform (WHT), discrete cosine transform (DCT) and discrete sine transform …

Implementing a verified FTP client and server
… memory safe. I wrote an FTP client and server in SPL, the GRASShopper programming language. SPL integrates the program logic's pre- and post- conditions, along with loop invariants, into the language, so that programs that compile in GRASShopper are proven correct. Because of that, my client and …
