Distribution systems are under constant stress due to their highly variable operating conditions, which jeopardize distribution transformers and lines, degrading the end-user service.Due to transformer regulation, variable loads can generate voltage profiles out of the acceptable bands recommended by grid codes, affecting the quality of service.At

Understanding carbon footprint (CF) terminology and the science underlying its determination is important to minimizing the negative impacts of new product development and assessing positive or negative cradle-to-grave life-cycle impacts.Life cycle assessment has been used to characterize representative field-grown and container-grown landscape pla
Hugo Maia Jr, Clarice Haddad, Julio Casoy Centro de Pesquisa e Assistência em Reprodução Humana (CEPARH), Salvador, Bahia, BrazilObjective: Menstrual symptoms such as dysmenorrhea usually occur during the hormone-free interval in oral contraceptive users.Progestin withdrawal activates NF-κB transcription factor, which upre
UDP-GlcNAc 2-epimerase/ManNAc 6-kinase, GNE, is a bi-functional enzyme that plays a key role in sialic acid biosynthesis.Mutations of the GNE protein cause sialurea or autosomal recessive inclusion body myopathy/Nonaka myopathy.GNE is the only human protein that contains a kinase domain belonging to the ROK (repressor, ORF, kinase) family.We solved
