Examining the variables which influence strong cation exchange of peptides, and their implications on the first dimension of separation in liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry
(2018-08-31)Orthogonal separations are often employed to improve the capacity of mass spectrometry for proteome analysis. The gold standard of orthogonal peptide-level separation utilises strong cation exchange (SCX) coupled to reversed ... -
Exceptions and Contingencies Handling in a SCADA System
(2011-05-02)The use of rollback is a fundamental flaw in some existing distributed control systems because the advance in time and in external world situations means that what had been a correct state in the past may no longer be a ... -
Excess of the Minimum: Revisiting Existenzminimum Through Crossprogramming in Halifax
(2017-08-21)In response to a growing trend of single-occupancy living in Western societies amidst social situations that can be isolating (i.e. aging of the population, prolongation of early adult years, immigration), this thesis ... -
Excess Pressure and Reservoir Compartmentalization in the Sable Subbasin, Offshore Nova Scotia
(2016-05-26)In the Sable Subbasin, fluid pressures have been observed in Jurassic and Early Cretaceous reservoirs in over 200 wells and increase with depth in unexpected increments from hydrostatic to excess pressured. In this study, ... -
The exchange of inorganic carbon on the Canadian Beaufort Shelf
(2017-06-30)The Mackenzie Shelf in the southeastern Beaufort Sea is a region that has experienced large changes in the past several decades as warming, sea-ice loss, and increased river discharge have altered carbon cycling. Upwelling ... -
