Additional measurements provide redundancies to improve and characterize measurement uncertainties.
In this paper, we want to improve and characterize a non-thermal plasma jet to employ it in processes of sterilization.
Enzymatic inhibitors (antipain, chymostatin, EDTA, pepstatin A), cofactors (e.g., ATP, Mg2+, Ca2+), pH, and substrates (gelatin, β-galactosidase, bovine serum albumin) were varied to improve and characterize the activities.
Here, our objective was to improve and characterize a BRSV model in calves, by selecting one of two inocula, based on two different strains passaged in calves or in cell culture, and used by two different research groups, to obtain a model that would induce clinical signs comparable to those observed in the field.
The GO nanosheets were compounded by the improved Hummers' method and characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscope (FTIR), transmission electron microscope (TEM) and atomic force microscope (AFM).
The results showed that the method remarkably improved its efficiency and characterized with advantages such as high efficiency, timesaving and low cost, which had a widespread prospect for applying in the future.
During the recent years, many advanced solid-state 13C NMR techniques have been developed, improved, and applied for characterizing complexity of NOM in algaes, plants, soils, sediments, and kerogens [23, 43]; Mao and Schmidt-Rohr [24 26], Mao et al. [27 29].
We also improved our reconstruction algorithm and characterized the device resolution.
It was shown that AVE 0991 reduced left ventricular hypertrophy and improved heart function, characterized by decreases in left ventricular weight and left ventricular end-diastolic diameter, and increases in ejection fraction.
A proof of concept was designed, modeled, fabricated and characterized, demonstrating improved power and bandwidth performance (up to 37 μW and 9 Hz at 1 g) with respect to traditional single-resonator designs.
