AN ECO-FRIENDLY APPROACH: INCORPORATING A XYLANASE STAGE AT VARIOUS PLACES IN ECF AND CHLORINE-BASED BLEACHING OF EUCALYPTUS PULP

An Eco-Friendly Approach: Incorporating a Xylanase Stage at Various Places in ECF and Chlorine-based Bleaching of Eucalyptus Pulp

A potentially more environmentally compatible approach was evaluated, involving the use of an enzyme (X) stage optimally inserted into various bleaching sequences for Eucalyptus kraft pulps.The efficacy of the X stage was evaluated in terms of final brightness, CIE whiteness, post-color number (brightness reversion), effluent characteristics, etc.T

Deregulation of the imprinted DLK1-DIO3 locus ncRNAs is associated with replicative senescence of human adipose-derived stem cells.

BACKGROUND:Human adult adipose-derived stem cells (hADSCs) have become the most promising cell source for regenerative medicine.However the prolonged ex vivo expansion periods required to obtain the necessary therapeutic dose promotes progressive senescence, with the concomitant reduction of their therapeutic potential.AIM AND SCOPE:A better unders

Reconsidering Representation in College Design Curricula

Fitness The Future of Design Education working group on representation addressed the roles of data, maps, models, and interfaces as a continuum from representation to action.The article traces historical ideas of representation grounded by a linguistic paradigm to more recent approaches based on performance, embodiment, and sensory modalities other
