This thesis describes a quality method that was developed to measure the quality of a tool or technique based on the results it produces. Based on the results of these measurements on current carving tools, a number of areas were identified that could be improved. A new carving framework was developed to address these points of improvements, and its results were tested using the previously developed quality method. The new carving framework achieved significantly better results on all identified improvement areas.

A retaining wall constructed on expansive soil can be subjected to lateral swelling pressures due to soil swelling, which may cause a significant horizontal deformation and bending of the retaining wall. In Australia, it is generally assumed that the backfill behind a retaining wall is non-expansive material. Therefore lateral swelling pressures induced by expansive soils are ignored in routine design.

The central concern of this study is to develop an ICT-literacy task-based assessment instrument that may be used to evaluate trainee teachers’ level of ICT-literacy. The current literature acknowledges the need for a measurement instrument that evaluates ICT-literacy levels. This type of measurement instrument is used as an entry-level testing tool for university and job placements. However, existing ICT-literacy assessment instruments are either too expensive to be implemented or too rigid with their expected answers; moreover, they are not tailored to a teacher’s individual needs.

This research has two main objectives. The first is to examine how PPP operational phase partnership, risk and performance management practices can be improved to achieve better VfM outcomes. This involves developing a generic conceptual integrating model, intended to assist government decision-makers to allocate and make better use of public sector resources during the operational phase of PPPs, that may have significant and / or long-term consequences for achieving strategic objectives using an integrated partnership, risk and performance management approach.

In the first lesson of inorganic chemistry lab, preparing and testing solutions are two basic tasks needed to perform well. Dissolving a solid solute in the solvent or diluting the stock solution (a dilution series by using two techniques that are making parallel dilutions and serial dilutions) is to prepare solution with desired concentration of solute or desired volume.

The present study was envisaged with the objective to isolate indigenous chromate tolerant bacteria from effluents and their subsequent utilization for chromium uptake or reduction. Samples were collected from two different Common Effluent Treatment Plants (CETPs), located in Ludhiana (sample 1) and Jalandhar (sample 2). In both the samples, chromium was found to be the dominant metal contaminant. A total of 10 morphologically distinct isolates were tested for their tolerance to chromium in terms of minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of Cr required for complete inhibition of growth.

Antimicrobial resistance is an emerging challenge for health personnel and researchers. In such scenario, alternative strategies targeting novel ways to kill or inhibit growth of microbes are need of the hour. Antimicrobial peptide can be a promising candidate to deal with this crisis. Extracellular matrix protein vitronectin (Vn) is recently being established as a bactericidal agent against certain microbes. Caprine Vn has got few structural alterations as compare to human Vn.

Article 1: Why do we tip waiters, hairdressers and taxi drivers bit not nurses and shop assistants? According to research in the US, more than 90% of restaurant diners tip their waiter or waitress about 10% of the bill. Tips are often a large part of the income of waiting staff. Research shows that, to get tips, some things work and others do not. There are three main factors which can increase tipping.

The importance of two putative Zn2+-binding (Asp347, Glu429) and two catalytic (Arg431, Lys354) residues in the tomato leucine aminopeptidase (LAP-A) function was tested. The impact of substitutions at these positions, corresponding to the bovine LAP residues Asp255, Glu334, Arg336, and Lys262, was evaluated in His6–LAP-A fusion proteins expressed in Escherichia coli. Sixty-five percent of the mutant His6–LAP-A proteins were unstable or had complete or partial defects in hexamer assembly or stability. The activity of hexameric His6–LAP-As on Xaa-Leu and Leu-Xaa dipeptides was tested.

Populations in Southeast AsiaandSouthChinahave highfrequencies ofa-thalassemia caused by a-globin gene mutations and/or deletions. This study was designed to find an efficient and simple diagnostic test for the mutations and deletions. A duplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR)/denaturing high-pressure liquid chromatography (DHPLC) was used to detect the mutations and deletions. A blinded study of 110 samples, which included 92 a-thalassemia samples with various genotypes and 18 normal DNA samples, was carried out by the methods.

To develop an ecdysone receptor (EcR)-based inducible gene regulation system, several constructs were prepared by fusing DEF domains of Choristoneura fumiferanaEcR (CfEcR),C. fumiferanaultraspiracle (CfUSP),Mus muscu-lus retinoid X receptor (MmRXR) to either GAL4 DNA binding domain (DBD) or VP16 activation domain. These constructs were tested in mammalian cells to evaluate their ability to transactivate luciferase gene placed under the control of GAL4 response elements and synthetic TATAA promoter. ...
