Wage- and profit-led regimes under modern finance: an exploration
(Edward Elgar Publishing, 2017-07-01)
This paper generalizes the principle of effective demand to incorporate banking and finance as two distinct sectors. The traditional commercial banking sector is regulated and the modern shadow banking sector is mostly an ...
Controllability of nonlinear delay oscillating systems
(University of Szeged, 2017-01-01)
In this paper, we study the controllability of a system governed by second order delay differential equations. We introduce a delay Gramian matrix involving the delayed matrix sine, which is used to establish sufficient ...
Bioreactor scalability: laboratory-scale bioreactor design influences performance, ecology, and community physiology in expanded granular sludge bed bioreactors
(Frontiers Media SA, 2017-05-01)
Studies investigating the feasibility of new, or improved, biotechnologies, such as wastewater treatment digesters, inevitably start with laboratory-scale trials. However, it is rarely determined whether laboratory-scale ...
Fatigue, deterioration and system analysis of the boyne viaduct
(Elsevier BV, 2017-01-01)
Manufacturing differences affect human bone marrow stromal cell characteristics and function: comparison of production methods and products from multiple centers
(Springer Nature, 2017-04-27)
Human bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs, also known as bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells) are manufactured using many different methods, but little is known about the spectrum of manufacturing methods used and their ...
Eradication of staphylococcus aureus biofilm infections using synthetic antimicrobial peptides
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2017-02-07)
Here, we demonstrate that antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are an effective antibiofilm treatment when applied as catheter lock solutions (CLSs) against S. aureus biofilm infections. The activity of synthetic AMPs (Bac8c, ...
An epigenome-wide association study meta-analysis of educational attainment
(Springer Nature, 2017-10-31)
The epigenome is associated with biological factors, such as disease status, and environmental factors, such as smoking, alcohol consumption and body mass index. Although there is a widespread perception that environmental ...
Anti-donor immune responses elicited by allogeneic mesenchymal stem cells and their extracellular vesicles: are we still learning?
(Frontiers Media SA, 2017-11-24)
Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) have been used to treat a broad range of disease indications such as acute and chronic inflammatory disorders, autoimmune diseases, and transplant rejection due to their potent immunosuppr ...
