Persuading developers to buy into software process improvement: an exploratory analysis
(University of Hertfordshire, 2002)In order to investigate practitioners' opinions of software process and software process improvement, we have collected information from 13 companies, in a variety of ways i.e. the use of Repertory Grid Technique, survey ... -
Persuading Young Consumers to Make Healthy Nutritional Decisions
(2009)There is widespread concern that consumers are making inappropriate decisions about what they eat, leading to a growing incidence of obesity and chronic illness which will strain public health budgets and damage economic ... -
Perturbative Four-Point Functions from the Analytic Conformal Bootstrap
(2018-02-20)We apply the analytic conformal bootstrap method to study weakly coupled conformal gauge theories in four dimensions. We employ twist conformal blocks to find the most general form of the one-loop four-point correlation ... -
Pervasive cold ice within a temperate glacier-implications for glacier thermal regimes, sediment transport and foreland geomorphology
(2019-03-07)This study suggests that cold-ice processes may be more widespread than previously assumed, even within temperate glacial systems. We present the first systematic mapping of cold ice at the snout of the temperate glacier ... -
Pesquisa Academica em Areas de Practica Projetual
(2009)In professional areas in which there is an element of design practice such as architecture and urbanism, the paradigm of knowledge has not been clearly articulated in academia. However, the characteristics of the knowledge ... -
Pest and disease management system for supporting winter oilseed rape decisions (PASSWORD) – validation phase
(HGCA, 2005)Pests and particularly diseases cause serious loss of yield and quality in winter oilseed rape estimated to exceed £80 million/annum in some years. These losses have occurred despite an annual expenditure of about £3.5 ... -
Pest-predator spatial relationships in winter rape: implications for integrated crop management
(2000-10-13)The brassica pod midge (Dasineura brassicae) is an important and widespread pest of winter and spring oilseed rape throughout Europe. Pods infested by D brassicae larvae split prematurely, releasing seeds, and the larvae ... -
The Pesticide Properties Database
(IUPAC, 2011-06-30)Modeling and decision support systems for pesticide risk assessments are invariably data hungry, and there has been a long and widely recognized need for a single authoritative and comprehensive database of pesticide ... -
Pesticide Properties DataBase (PPDB)
(University of Hertfordshire, 2006)The PPDB is a comprehensive relational database of pesticide physicochemical and ecotoxicological data. It's been developed by the Agriculture and Environment Research Unit (AERU) at the University of Hertfordshire, from ... -
Pesticide Properties Database : An overview
(2009)This presentation described the PPDB dissemination activities including online global use and licenced use for risk assessment activities. -
Pest–predator spatial relationships in winter rape: implications for integrated crop management.
(Wiley, 2000)The brassica pod midge (Dasineura brassicae) is an important and widespread pest of winter and spring oilseed rape throughout Europe. Pods infested by D brassicae larvae split prematurely, releasing seeds, and the larvae ... -
PEXO : a global modeling framework for nanosecond timing, microsecond astrometry, and μm/s radial velocities
(2019-10-15)The ability to make independent detections of the signatures of exoplanets with complementary telescopes and instruments brings a new potential for robust identification of exoplanets and precision characterization. We ... -
pH Alteration in Plant-Mediated Green Synthesis and Its Resultant Impact on Antimicrobial Properties of Silver Nanoparticles (AgNPs)
(2022-11-10)Plant-mediated green synthesis is a cost-effective and eco-friendly process used to synthesize metallic nanoparticles. Experimental pH is of interest due to its ability to influence nanoparticle size and shape; however, ... -
pH-triggered reversible "stealth" polycationic micelles
(2008-01)Amphiphilic polycations with a "stealth" cationic nature have been designed and synthesized by the PEGylation of polycationic amphiphile via a novel pH responsible benzoic imine linker. The linkage is stable in aqueous ... -
Phage ϕC2 mediates transduction of Tn6215, encoding erythromycin resistance, between Clostridium difficile strains
(2013-11-19)UNLABELLED: In this work, we show that Clostridium difficile phage ϕC2 transduces erm(B), which confers erythromycin resistance, from a donor to a recipient strain at a frequency of 10(-6) per PFU. The transductants were ... -
The phagocytic capacity of neurones
(2007-05)Phagocytosis is defined as the ingestion of particulates over 0.5 microm in diameter and is associated with cells of the immune system such as macrophages or monocytes. Neurones are not generally recognized to be phagocytic. ...
