Formulation of effective and environmental friendly bioherbicides depends on the type of fermentation medium used for the production of phytotoxic metabolites.The effect of biomass, colony forming unit and the phytotoxic metabolite produced from the biphasic fermentation was carried out, while the phytotoxic metabolite was tested in vivo and in-vit
Two related but somewhat different approaches have been proposed to formalize the notion of a self-sustaining chemical reaction network.One is the notion of collectively autocatalytic sets, formalized as RAF theory, and the other is chemical organization theory.Both formalisms have been argued to be relevant to the origin of life.RAF sets and chemi
Abstract Background Computer-assisted surgical navigation aims to provide surgeons with anatomical target localization and critical structure observation, where medical image processing methods such as segmentation, registration and visualization play a critical role.Percutaneous renal intervention plays an important role in several minimally-invas
