Modifications that would require significant extra time or special machinery such as the application of a new rocker outsole or the replacement of midsole materials were not applied.
The Sec- and Tat-dependent secretion pathways translocate proteins across the inner membrane in Gram-negative bacteria; also extra translocation machinery parts are found in their outer membrane.
For now, Chris Howe from the University of Cambridge says, "If you wanted to set up a relationship between a chloroplast and a new animal host, you'd need all that extra support machinery.
Entrepreneurs will see little reason to invest in extra plant and machinery when so much existing capacity lies idle.
The use of in-shoe plantar pressure analysis for evaluation and optimization of diabetic footwear requires (extra) investments in machinery, measurement equipment, personnel, and training.
This data suggest that bacteria possess an extra-fine mechanosensing machinery, which is able to detect even nanoscale features in abiotic surface nanotopographies.
