Genetic characterization of trh positive Vibrio spp. isolated from Norway
(2013)
The thermostable direct hemolysin (TDH) and/or TDH-related hemolysin (TRH) genes are carried by most virulent Vibrio parahaemolyticus serovars. In Norway, trh+ V. parahaemolyticus constitute 4.4 and 4.5% of the total number ...
Brain infection with Staphylococcus aureus leads to high extracellular levels of glutamate, aspartate, γ-aminobutyric acid, and zinc
(2014)
Staphylococcal brain infections may cause mental deterioration and epileptic seizures, suggesting interference with normal neurotransmission in the brain. We injected Staphylococcus aureus into rat striatum and found an ...
Curing of Glycidyl Azide Polymer (GAP) diol using isocyanate, isocyanate-free, synchronous dual, and sequential dual curing systems
(2015)
Glycidyl azide polymer (GAP) is an important energetic
binder candidate for new minimum signature solid composite rocket propellants, but the mechanical properties of such GAP propellants are often limited. The mechanical ...
Genotyping of B. licheniformis based on a novel multi-locus sequence typing (MLST) scheme
(2012)
Background
Bacillus licheniformis has for many years been used in the industrial production of enzymes, antibiotics and detergents. However, as a producer of dormant heat-resistant endospores B. licheniformis might ...
Compressed Sensing for Multistatic Radar Systems with Arbitrary Block Codes
(2015)
Multistatic radar systems with multiple elements at transmitting and/or receiving side permit multiple target observations from different viewpoints providing various advantageous. In an environment with multiple transmitters ...
Meta-heuristics for improved RF emitter localization
(2017)
Locating Radio Frequency (RF) emitters can be done with a number of methods, but cheap and widely available sensors make the Power Difference of Arrival (PDOA) technique a prominent choice. Predicting the location of an ...
Analysis of detection performance of incoherent range walk compensation for passive radar
(2015)
This paper analyzes the performance of an incoherent range walk compensation
method for passive radar systems. The method utilizes the velocity information in
the range-Doppler map, and no detection before compensation ...
Assessment of the dispersion of Legionella-containing aerosols from a biological treatment plant
(2011)
Legionella was detected in aeration ponds (biological treatment plant) at Borregaard Ind. Ltd., Norway, and in air samples harvested directly above these ponds. Since 2005, three outbreaks of legionellosis occurred within ...
The Recruiter’s Dilemma: Signaling and Terrorist Recruitment Tactics
(2013)
How do terrorists recruit? We know much about the profiles and pathways of recruits, but little about the strategies and tactics of recruiters. Such procedures matter because they help determine who joins. I highlight a ...
