On-line analyte preconcentration with atomic spectrometric detection.
(England, 1991)Pre-concentration of analytes, or matrix removal to overcome interferences using mini- or micro-columns of exchange media prior to atomic spectrometric detection is becoming increasingly more common. This paper is a review ... -
Automated cold vapour flow-injection analysis of mercury at high concentrations.
(England, 1991)Continuous-flow cold vapour- atomic fluorescence spectrometry is shown to be an extremely sensitive technique for the determination of mercury with detection limits typically below 0.01 mug l(-1). Linear calibration ranges ... -
Horizons: a vocational approach to the National Curriculum

A portable battery-powered flow injection monitor for the in situ analysis of nitrate in natural waters.
(England, 1993)The design and performance of a portable, automated flow injection (FI)-based photometric monitor are described. The system is controlled by an in-house microcomputer system that enables the monitor (including a solid ... -
Joint Determination of Demand for Inputs and Choice of Rice Varieties: A Meta-Production Function Approach
(1993-07-05)Fierce competition in the already thin world rice market for low quality rice exports raised concerns on the future of rice production in Thailand for its increasing labor wages and production costs and its exporting ... -
Pfmrk, a MO15-related protein kinase from Plasmodium falciparum. Gene cloning, sequence, stage-specific expression and chromosome localization.
(England, 1996-11-01)Cyclin-dependent kinases (Cdks) play a central role in the regulation of the eukaryotic cell cycle. A novel gene encoding a Cdk-like protein, Pfmrk, has been isolated from the human malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum. ... -
Reversal of parkinsonian symptoms in primates by antagonism of excitatory amino acid transmission: potential mechanisms of action.
(United States, 1997-07)Parkinsonism is characterised by overactive glutamatergic transmission in the cortico-striatal and subthalamo-medial pallidal pathways. Local blockade of glutamatergic transmission in these pathways can alleviate parkinsonian ... -
Protein phosphatase beta, a putative type-2A protein phosphatase from the human malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum.
(England, 1997-10-01)Protein phosphatases play a critical role in the regulation of the eukaryotic cell cycle and signal transduction. A putative protein serine/threonine phosphatase gene has been isolated from the human malaria parasite ... -
Socio-economic and Environmental Impacts of Technological Change in Bangladesh Agriculture
(1998-08-10)Widespread controversies exist on the delayed consequences of technological change or ‘Green Revolution’ technology in agriculture largely due to the approach utilized in the evaluation process and the extent of issues ... -
A submersible battery-powered flow injection (FI) sensor for the determination of nitrate in estuarine and coastal waters.
(United States, 1999)The design, construction and performance of a remotely deployed submersible flow injection-based nutrient (total oxidized nitrogen) sensor are described. The sensor featured a custom-built microcomputer and a solid-state, ... -
Optimization of an automated FI-FT-IR procedure for the determination of o-xylene, toluene and ethyl benzene in n-hexane.
(United States, 1999)The development and optimization of an automated flow injection (FI) manifold coupled with a Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) detector for the determination of toluene, ethyl benzene and o-xylene in an n-hexane matrix ... -
Multivariable intelligent control strategies for an autonomous underwater vehicle
(1999-01-01)This paper discusses the application of a novel multivariable control technique to the problem of autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) autopilot design. Based on an adaptive network structure a multivariable Sugeno style ... -
Performance characteristics of a low-cost, field-deployable miniature CCD spectrometer.
(United States, 2000)Miniature spectrometers incorporating array detectors are becoming a viable, low-cost option for field and process deployments. The performance characteristics of one such instrument are reported and compared with those ... -
Sexual stage-specific expression of a third calcium-dependent protein kinase from Plasmodium falciparum.
(Netherlands, 2000-04-25)A third calcium-dependent protein kinase (CDPK) gene has been isolated from the human malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum by vectorette technology. The gene consists of five exons and four introns. The open reading ...
