We used the first set to select 110 SNPs associated with BMI at (strictly) genome-wide significant level (P < 10−8) and estimated a GRS using within-sample effect size estimates (GRS1) and a second GRS (GRS2) using out-of-sample effect size estimates from the second subset. ...
As far as flu- orochromes are concerned, and unless otherwise stated, all were purchased from Molecular Probes (Invitrogen; Eugene, Oregon, USA) and were previously resuspended with dimethyl sulfoxide (Sigma-Aldrich). Semen samples. In this study, boars were not handled by our team, but ...
and quite often the major contributor, it will never reach zero. There will always be need for planned maintenance, changeovers, adjustments and so on. At the same time this provides the highest opportunity for applying Lean Six Sigma tools like SMED, Predictive maintenance etc. for continual...
but still produces bad results. Without proper OEE Measurement practices, the leadership might falsely conclude that flaws in the internal processes are to blame for the poor output quality (when it could be related to something completely different, such as a scheduling conflict with an external p...
This effect was significantly enhanced upon HER4 knockdown (9.2% in untreated vs. 47% in treated cells; p = 0.0001). The quiescent cells were not able to proceed with cycling within the period of treatment/observation and are blocked in G0/G1 of the first cycle. Fig. 3 Reduced HER4...
For such a semiconductor, its bandgap would be large enough to meet the band edge alignment for straddling the redox potentials, while introducing a delocalized intermediate band within the forbidden gap ensures IR light harvesting. Meanwhile, the ultrathin thickness helps to reduce the diffusion ...
Glucose-free d-galactose and NEM were from Sigma (St. Louis, MO, USA). Of the various spin-labelling reagents, 6-MSL (4-maleimido-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxyl) was from Institut Josef Stefan (Ljubljana, Slovenia), 5-InVSL (2-[(1-oxyl-2,2,5,5-tetramethyl-3-pyrrolin-3-...
a cutoff energy of 500 eV throughout the computations. These settings ensure convergence of the total energies to within 1 meV per atom. Structure relaxation proceeded until all forces on atoms were less than 1 meV Å−1and the total stress tensor was within 0.01 GPa of the target value...
(PBE) within the generalized gradient approximation functional (GGA) is adopted to describe the exchange and correlation effects46. The plane wave energy cutoff was set as 400 eV. The Gaussian scheme was employed for electron occupancy with an energy smearing of 0.1 eV. The first Brillouin...
To prepare Ni–Fe NP, initially 5 mmol of Ni(NO3)2.6H2O (UNIVAR grade, Ajax Finechem, Australia) and 1 mmol Fe(Cl)2.4H2O (Sigma-Aldrich, USA) were dissolved into a mixture of 2 mL of de-ionized water and 1 mL of ethanol. Four grams of Na(oleate) (TCI, Japan) was di...
