Current pathways to generate biofuels either ferment sugars derived from biomass or convert them to a partially-oxygenated intermediate to be reduced to higher density fuels.
The invention relates to the medical industry and more specifically to methods of predicting risks.
The gene, an amino acid transporter, can used to (i) alter glucose and xylose release, (ii) alter syringyl to guaiacyl ratio in cell walls (iii) manipulate cellulose fiber extension, cell death, lignin content, and secondary cell wall formation, (iv) alter hexose and pentose s
The mechanical properties of tissue can be affected by many diseases and injuries such as fibrosis and burns. Currently, the gold standard for measuring tissue mechanical properties is highly invasive and relies mainly on taking tissue biopsies.
Our invention is unique in the way the signal is processed to extract venous and arterial oxygen saturation non-invasively. Current devices use a part of the collected signal (AC pulsatile signal) and ignore the remainder of the signal that contains a substantial amount
Agave is a plant that grows well in dry arid or semi-arid environments in semi-tropical area and certain states in the US. It contains high levels of sugar and structural carbohydrates such as cellulose.
Microbial exopolysaccharides (EPS) play a critical and dynamic role in shaping the interactions between microbial community members and their local environment.
This invention contains information that is initially aimed for coating and paint materials that are designed to be solar reflective in nature.
If the semi-arid (rainfall <31 inches) regions in the western half of the US could be used to grow biomass for conversion to biofuels, additional sources of biofuels needed to displace petroleum could be produced from otherwise unproductive lands.
Aqueous two-phase systems contained within microdroplets enable a bottom-up approach to mimicking the dynamic microcompartmentation of biomaterial that naturally occurs within the cytoplasm of cells.
