A NOVEL AND EFFICIENT METHOD FOR DIGITAL MICROSCOPY OF CELLS IN CULTURE
(2023-08-31)Common implementations of standard microscopy suffer from several disadvantages. The apparatus required is often inconveniently large and expensive, requires trained operators, provides only a limited field of view (FOV) ... -
A NOVEL AND GENERIC METHOD FOR EXAMINING THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN ENERGY SECURITY AND DIVERSITY OF AN ENERGY SYSTEM
(2013-12-16)In an energy system, diversity of supply—that is, reliance on a variety of mutually disparate energy suppliers and their energy supplies—is seen by many researchers and policymakers as an important component of energy ... -
NOVEL APPLICATIONS OF RANDOM FOREST FOR EXPLORING POPULATION STRUCTURE OF ATLANTIC SALMON (SALMO SALAR) IN LABRADOR, CANADA
(2017-08-28)The detection of population-genetic structure is useful for understanding patterns of gene flow, population distribution, and wildlife management and conservation. In this work, we examine approaches for inferring the ... -
Novel Approaches to Marker Gene Representation Learning Using Trained Tokenizers and Jointly Trained Transformer Models
(2021-08-19)Next-generation DNA sequencing technologies have made marker-gene DNA sequence data widely available. Analysis of microbiome data has many challenges, including sparsity, high cardinality, and intra-study dependencies ... -
Novel Approaches to Seafloor Mapping in the Northwest Atlantic
(2023-09-18)Although oceans cover nearly three-quarters of the earth, studies estimate that only a fraction of the seafloor has been mapped at a resolution higher than 1km2. On the continental shelf and in nearshore regions, there ... -
NOVEL APPROACHES TO THE STUDY OF SYNAPTIC PLASTICITY IN THE RAT HIPPOCAMPUS
(2017-08-03)Synaptic plasticity refers to changes in the strength of connections between neurons in response to previous activity. Its experimental correlates, i.e., long-term-potentiation (LTP), a persistent increase in synaptic ... -
Novel Aromas of Fungal Origin
(Balaban Publishers, 1986) -
Novel biotechnological approach for the production of chitin and de-icing agents.

A Novel C-Terminal Region within the Multicargo Type III Secretion Chaperone CesT Contributes to Effector Secretion
(2013-02)The enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC) multicargo chaperone CesT interacts with at least 10 effector proteins and is central to pathogenesis. CesT has been implicated in coordinating effector hierarchy, although the ... -
A Novel Drug Delivery System: Adenosine-Loaded Chitosan Nanoparticles
(2013-12-12)Adenosine is currently limited in its application as a treatment for various cancers since intravenous infusion has not been successful due to enzymatic degradation. Entrapment/association of adenosine into chitosan ... -
A NOVEL EXPERIMENTAL STUDY OF CRUDE OIL DEHYDRATION USING MICROWAVE ENERGY UNDER ELECTROSTATIC FIELD
(2019-04-29)In this study, microwave energy was introduced simultaneously with electrostatic field to investigate the efficiency of the coalescence process in crude oil emulsions as a hybridized technique for oil/water dehydration. ... -
NOVEL FABRICATION OF A CALCIUM POLYPHOSPHATE DELIVERY MATRIX FOR TREATMENT OF OSTEOMYELITIS AND BONE REGENERATION
(2015)Osteomyelitis is an inflammation of bone resulting from pyogenic organism activity. It affects patients of any age, impacts any bone and can lead to persistent morbidity. Local delivery systems have taken on a greater ... -
Novel Fragmentation Processes of 2-Nitrobenzenesulfonyl Amino Acid Anions
(2013-08-19)A library of 2-nitrobenzenesulfonyl (Ns) derivatives incorporating isotopic labels and a range of structural variations was prepared and characterized to investigate mass spectrometric fragmentation processes. Deprotonated ... -
Novel Mapping Algorithm For Bilateral Teleoperation Of Bipedal Robot Using A Manipulator
(2022-04-27)Research on the Bilateral teleoperation of biped robots is limited. So far, researchers have only studied bilateral teleoperation of bipedal robots using exoskeletons due to the kinematic similarities. This is, however, ... -
Novel Methods for the Selective and Sensitive Detection of BMAA
(2016-08-31)β-N-methylamino-L-alanine (BMAA) is a neurotoxin first discovered in cycads and implicated as a possible cause of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis/parkinsonism dementia complex (ALS/PDC) in Guam’s Chamorro population. Due to ... -
A Novel Model of Elevated Mitochondrial Cholesterol and The Consequences for Mitochondrial Function
(2020-09-11)Increased mitochondrial cholesterol may induce mitochondrial dysfunction and play a role in the progression of neurodegenerative disease and cancer. The voltage-dependent anion channel of the outer mitochondrial membrane ... -
NOVEL MULTILATERAL TELEOPERATION AND COOPERATIVE CONTROL APPROACHES FOR MULTIPLE MANIPULATORS
(2018-12-13)Teleoperation of robotic manipulators has been one of the popular research areas in the robotics research community for last couple of decades. A variety of control methods have been proposed for bilateral and multilateral ... -
