Abstract:
ABSTRACT Several recent studies have indicated that artificial subhalo disruption (the spontaneous, non-physical disintegration of a subhalo) remains prevalent in state-of-the-art dark matter (DM)-only cosmological simulations. In order to quantify the impact of disruption on the inferred subhalo demographics, we augment the semi-analytical SatGen dynamical subhalo evolution model with an improved treatment of tidal stripping that is calibrated using the Dynamical Aspects of SubHaloes database of idealized high-resolution simulations of subhalo evolution, which are free from artificial disrupt

Abstract:
Between December 1947 and the first four months of 1948, the fabric of a centuries-old Palestinian Arab society unraveled with astounding rapidity, producing 750,000 refugees. The collapse occurred within the context of widespread socioeconomic disruption and dislocation among peasants and migrant and urban workers. The eroding socioeconomic foundation severely weakened this lower stratum's defense against Zionist settlement, colonial state policies, and military pressures. Beginning in late Ottoman times and throughout the British Mandate period (1918–48), the agrarian social economy had been

AKR-2B cells disintegrate after serum removal. After a delay of approximately 90 minutes, cell death began and reached after six hours a plateau of 40–50% remaining living cells. We used time-lapse video microscopy to monitor dynamic structural changes and to measure the time span of individual cells to die. The first change was the rapid appearance of membrane blebs. Membrane vesicles were rapidly extruded and reintegrated by the cell. This highly dynamic process of an affected cell stopped after 80+/−20 minutes with its death. Conductivity measurements showed that at that time the membrane w

Mechanical disintegration can be used for an accelerated and improved anaerobic digestion of excess sludge. The hydrolysis is the limiting step of this process. Mechanical disintegration can be used to disrupt the cell walls and to cause the release of the organic material from the cells. Particle size analysis describes the size reduction but is not suitable for characterising the release of the organic material and the cell disruption. Two biochemical methods were developed for these phenomena. One of the parameters provides information about the disruption of micro-organisms, the other one

Abstract:
Disruption of cells is necessary when the desired product is intracellular. Many commercial intracellular products are proteins, such as soluble enzymes or soluble genetically engineered peptides. However, a number of genetically engineered proteins in E. coli are present in the cell as insoluble inclusion bodies; although this may be due to the chosen lysing conditions. This chapter concentrates on the extraction of soluble enzymes. To achieve a good yield of an intracellular product, it is generally a good idea to minimize the number of steps involved in the purification, as there is loss of material associated with each step. Since cell disruption is an extra procedure which itself may demand a further clarification step, it may be worth investigating if extraction of the protein can be made directly from the cell lysate (the disrupted material) without a cell debris clarification step. It may also be possible to manipulate the cell so that it excretes the protein into the surrounding growth medium, and thus, not require an extraction procedure (if the subsequent dilution of the product by the broth can be tolerated). The choice of disruption method usually follows one of the two directions: (a) Can a given disrupter be used for a particular cell type? (b) Which is the best method of extracting a product? The former often occurs in a laboratory context, whilst the latter is a question to be asked during scale-up of a process when costs are paramount. This chapter tries to accommodate both questions. Whatever type of disruption process is adopted, there are some key questions to be addressed. These are briefly discussed in the remaining sections of this overview. A recent comprehensive review of many disruption techniques is given by Middelberg. It is well known that some enzymes are more stable than others. The disruption method can impose great physical and chemical stress on the enzyme. Enzymes which are stable in the cell, perhaps by virtue of being attached to membranes, will be released into the medium during disruption.

In this chapter, Winnicott explores the concept of chaos, with reference to the internal world, preferring to think of it as un-integration. The defensive states that may follow may also be protected by enabling sufficient capacity for illusion in the growing self, but, if this is not the case, splitting within the self—a normal function—can become excessive. This leads to the disruption of the true self with its capacity for spontaneity and the creation of a false self with overcompliance to external reality. The states of disintegration, dissociation, and repression are defined.

To explain these exile ingathering strategies, the chapter introduces the notion of ‘regime shock’: a new concept denoting moments disruption to prevailing configurations of territoriality, sovereignty, and/or citizenship that define a specific place, and which lead to the questioning and redrawing of the lines of social and political membership, along with changes in the structure of authority.

Abstract:
The McKinsey Global Institute suggests productivity could increase by nearly 50%, boosting the economy at a time of lacklustre productivity growth and helping offset the impact of a declining share of the population being of working age. Investing in automation at scale can enhance productivity. Today, advances in robotics, artificial intelligence, and machine learning, in which machines mimic cognitive functions such as learning and problem solving, are ushering in a new age of automation as machines match or outperform humans in a range of work activities, including those requiring cognitive capabilities. In this chapter, Mark Britnell looks at the advances in artificial intelligence, robotics, and digital tools in relation to healthcare systems and healthcare workers, all with the aim of improving the quality of care.

In the United States, it is estimated that in 2008 approximately 1.2 million people will suffer a new or recurrent myocardial infarction. In 2005, the latest full year for which statistics are available, 16 million Americans (7.3% of the population) had some form of coronary heart disease. Loss of myocardium as a result of myocardial infarction increases wall stress locally and globally and triggers adaptive responses at the molecular, cellular, and tissue levels. These adaptive responses can lead to left ventricular dilation and congestive heart failure. Accurate non-invasive evaluation of my

Abstract:
Balkans can be defined as a region which had been under different cultures’ and civilizations’ reign, and experienced different nations, religions and cultures. It is likely possible to see the effects of these multicultural and multinational structure on international politics and economy. In that sense, Macedonia is inevitably placed in an important point for Balkan and Ottoman history, and even for international politics. It is very possible to see Turkish influence on Macedonia, which -ruled by Ottoman for 542 years- has gained its independence, as a result of disintegration of Yugoslavia

Abstract:
After disintegration of Soviet Union, mass labor migration has been seen in newly independent states. This migration mostly caused by ethnic reasons, while after mid of 1990's the migration predominantly reasoned by economic issues, such as differences in economic growth, wage levels, social conditions and welfare in countries of destination and origin. Due to labor migration in Kyrgyzstan, which is count around the 10 % percent of active population of the country, and high remittance inflow, which is more than 30 % of Gross Domestic Product of Kyrgyzstan, it is important to investigate the fa

This paper describes effects of shock waves on cells to certificate the angiogenesis by shock wave (pressure wave) in the clinical application such as ESW (Extracorporeal Shock Wave). Especially, to investigate the effects of shock waves on the endothelial cells in vitro, the cells worked by plane shock waves using shock tube apparatus are observed by microscope. The peak pressure working on the endothelial cells at the test case is 0.4 MPa. After working shock waves on suspended cells, the disintegration, shape and growth rate (area per one cell and population of cells) are measured by image

Abstract:
Abstract The fate of particulate matter in the ocean is determined in large part by its size and settling rate. Disaggregation, caused by turbulence-induced shear, acts to fracture or erode large particles into slower-settling sub-aggregates and primary particles. The strength and breakup response of organic marine aggregates (i.e. marine snow particles consisting of phytoplankton) is poorly understood, limiting our ability to accurately predict marine particle transport effects on the global carbon cycle. A study was conducted to enable the investigation of disaggregation effects on these org

Background: Organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) belongs to the class of hydrocarbons characterized by its cyclic structure. Due to their persistent nature OCP gets accumulated in the food chain and cause possible adverse health effects specifically various hormone mediated disorders. Ovarian cancer is also one of the hormone dependant cancer and begins with the transformation of cells that comprises the ovaries including surface epithelial, germ cells, etc. It has been suggested that endocrine disruption, exposure to xenobiotic and subsequent oxidative stress may antedate ovarian cancer and contr

Abstract:
Glaucoma is one of the leading causes of blindness worldwide. Although elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) is the main risk factor for the development of the disease, its role remains unclear. Several studies have explored the hypothesis that an IOP-induced altered biomechanical environment within the optic nerve head (ONH), and the lamina cribrosa in particular, may contribute to disruption of the retinal ganglion cell axons, and the subsequent loss of vision associated with glaucoma [1–3]. Identifying the normal ONH biomechanical environment, however, has proven challenging. This has been in

Abstract:
Chronic low back pain affects an estimated 15–65% of the U.S. population. Disc degeneration is often accredited as the origin of low back pain. With degeneration comes the breakdown of proteoglycans, loss of water content, and a decrease in the height of the intervertebral disc (IVD). These changes likely affect the disc’s viscoelastic response, making modeling and subsequent prediction of degeneration mechanics difficult. Unfortunately, much of the previous mechanical testing of IVD tissues has involved excision of the tissue and disruption of annular fibers. To gain insight into the in situ
