Methods for Simulating the Dynamics of Complex Biological Processes
(2008)In this chapter, we provide the basic information required to understand the central concepts in the modeling and simulation of complex biochemical processes. We underline the fact that most biochemical processes involve ... -
Methods for studying population structure, including sensitivity to the fungicide silthiofam, of the cereal take-all fungus, Gaeumannomyces graminis var. tritici
(2005-10)Field isolates (n = 144) of the wheat take-all fungus Gaeumannomyces graminis var. tritici (Ggt) were tested for sensitivity to silthiofam, a take-all-specific fungicide used as a seed treatment, and identified as A- or ... -
Methods for studying the nematophagous fungus Verticillium chlamydosporium in the root environment
(2001)In order to exploit fully the biocontrol potential of the nematophagous fungus Verticillium chlamydosporium, it is important to understand the ecology of the fungus in soil, and interactions with both plant and nematode ... -
Methods of quantum field theory for trapped Bose–Einstein condensates
(2004)In this tutorial we present an introduction to some theoretical methods of quantum field theory applied to the description of a trapped Bose–Einstein condensate. First of all, we give a brief account of the main characteristics ... -
Methods of Sentinel Lymph Node Detection and Management in Urinary Bladder Cancer—A Narrative Review
(2022-02-23)Introduction: Detection of lymph node status in bladder cancer significantly impacts clinical decisions regarding its management. There is a wide range of detection modalities for this task, including lymphoscintigraphy, ... -
Methods, Goals and Metaphysics in Contemporary Set Theory
(2016-07-08)This thesis confronts Penelope Maddy's Second Philosophical study of set theory with a philosophical analysis of a part of contemporary set-theoretic practice in order to argue for three features we should demand of our ... -
Methoxetamine-related deaths in the UK : an overview
(2015-07-28)Objective: The goal of this study is to provide an update on the data given on methoxetamine (MXE)-related fatalities that occurred in 2011–2013, presented at the Second International Conference on Novel Psychoactive ... -
Methoxetamine: An Analogue of Ketamine
(2013-12)Introduction: Methoxetamine acts similarly to a non-competitive antagonist at the N-methyl-aspartate receptor and a Dopamine reuptake inhibitor. Its behavioural effects resemble those induced by dissociative anesthetics, ... -
Methyl-group effect on the proton affinity of methylated acetophenons studied by two mass-spectrometric techniques
(1993-10)The proton affinities (PA) of all isomeric dimethylacetophenones were determined using the 'kinetic method' with a tandem mass spectrometer and by measurements of the proton transfer equilibrium in the gas phase by Fourier ... -
Methylglyoxal, A Metabolite Increased in Diabetes is Associated with Insulin Resistance, Vascular Dysfunction and Neuropathies
(2016-05)Background: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a pandemic metabolic disease characterized by a chronically elevated blood glucose concentration (hyperglycemia) due to insulin dysfunction. Approximately 50% of diabetics show diabetes ... -
Metrics to Evaluate Human Teaching Engagement From a Robot's Point of View
(2018-01-29)This thesis was motivated by a study of how robots can be taught by humans, with an emphasis on allowing persons without programming skills to teach robots. The focus of this thesis was to investigate what criteria could ... -
Mexican science on the couch : Interview by Joerg Heber and Jesús Rogel-Salazar
(2010-10-01)Despite the good education of its scientists, science and technology in Mexico faces multiple challenges, says Juan Ramón de la Fuente, a former Minister of Health and former Rector of the National Autonomous University of Mexico -
Mexico must do more
(2010-10-01)Mexico is a country rich with natural resources and an educated workforce. Yet its scientific output remains below its potential. In this focus issue we try to highlight some of Mexico's structural problems. -
mHealth, Trust and the Security of Personal Data
(Springer Nature, 2017-12-02)The decentralisation of healthcare now extends, through the use of mobile technologies, beyond the home to people (patients) themselves. This heralds a revolution in the way people think about and use health and wellbeing ... -

Micro throttle pump employing displacement amplification in an elastomeric substrate
(2005-10)We report a micro throttle pump (MTP) with enhanced throttling resulting from beneficial deformation of its elastomer substrate. In the MTP reported, this has doubled the effective deflection of the piezo electric (PZT) ... -
Microbiological Quality Estimation of Meat Using Deep CNNs on Embedded Hardware Systems
(2023-04-24)Spectroscopic sensor imaging of food samples meta-processed by deep machine learning models can be used to assess the quality of the sample. This article presents an architecture for estimating microbial populations in ...
