When the first group of DNA puffs is active in the salivary gland regions S1 and S3 of Bradysia hygida larvae, there is a large increase in the production and secretion of new salivary proteins demonstrable by [3H]-Leu incorporation.The present study shows that protein separation by SDS-PAGE and detection by fluorography demonstrated that these pol
Carbonation of concretes is a natural physico-chemical process that can be described as a reaction between the carbon dioxide contained in the air and the cement matrix.Carbonation concerns all concretes types in contact with the ambient air but also concretes in ground, from production stage to use and end-of-life stages.The amount of carbon dioxi
Due to the huge number of objects/things connected to the Internet of Things (IoT) which are embedded with electronics, software, click here and sensors, the IoT creates many exciting applications such as smart grids, smart homes, and smart cities.In the IoT, the sensing and control of objects/things can be abstracted as a task, in which many sensi
In order to make the most of the digital outsourced documents, based on new technologies (e.g.: 3D LASER scanners, photogrammetry, etc.), a new approach was followed and a new ad hoc information system was implemented.The obtained product allow to the final user to reuse and manage the digital documents providing graphic tools and an integrated spe
