Pharmacoeconomics of voriconazole in the management of invasive fungal infections
(
Taylor and Francis
, 2010 , Article)
The incidence of invasive fungal infection has risen in recent years with the introduction of more intensive chemotherapy regimens and the advent of stem cell and solid-organ transplants. In patients undergoing chemotherapy, ...
Accurate and efficient implementation of the time–frequency matched filter
(
Institution of Engineering and Technology
, 2010 , Article)
The discrete time-frequency matched filter should replicate the continuoustime-frequency matched filter, but the methods differ. To avoid aliasing, thediscrete method transforms the real-valued signal to the complex-valued ...
Time-frequency approach to radar detection, imaging, and classification
(
Institution of Engineering and Technology
, 2010 , Article)
One of the central problems in exploiting the radar data is the analysis of atime series. The problem at hand is how to extract the information present in the data and use it to its full potential. Traditionally, radar ...
Improved Discrete Definition of Quadratic Time-Frequency Distributions
(
IEEE
, 2010 , Article)
Computation of a time-frequency distribution (TFD) requires a discrete version of the continuous distribution. This discrete TFD (DTFD) should be free from aliasing and conserve all the important mathematical properties ...
Innovative ad-hoc wireless sensor networks to significantly reduce leakages in underground water infrastructures
(
IEEE
, 2010 , Conference Paper)
This paper presents an ICT solution to overcome the problem of water dispersion in water distribution networks. Leakage prevention and breaks identification in water distribution networks are fundamental for an adequate ...
Antibacterial Polyvinylchloride Pre-Treated by Barrier Plasma
(
Nova Science Publishers, Inc.
, 2010 , Book chapter)
A multistep physicochemical approach making use of plasma technology combined with wet chemistry has fueled considerable interest in delivery of surface-active antiadherence materials. In the first step of the approach, ...
Involvement of oxidative stress and growth at high cell density in the viable but nonculturable state of Photorhabdus temperata ssp. temperata strain K122
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2010 , Article)
Photorhabdus temperata ssp. temperata strain K122 represents a promising source of bioinsecticide. When cultured in an optimized medium, P. temperata exhibited restricted survival in terms of colony-forming ability on solid ...
Antifungal activities of an endophytic Pseudomonas fluorescens strain Pf1TZ harbouring genes from pyoluteorin and phenazine clusters
(
Springer Netherlands
, 2010 , Article)
Pseudomonas fluorescens Pf1TZ was inhibitory in vitro to a number of phytopathogenic fungi and could protect vine plantlets against Botrytis cinerea. Total protection was reached after 3 weeks of bacterial inoculation. The ...
Rotavirus strain diversity in the Centre Coast of Tunisia from 2000 through 2003
(
Oxford University Press
, 2010 , Article)
An epidemiological survey investigating rotavirus infection in children was undertaken in the coastal region of Tunisia from January 2000 through September 2003. A total of 309 fecal specimens were screened by enzyme-linked ...
EU energy security, sustainability and globalisation: What role for Qatari LNG amid calls for greater energy diversification?
(
Inderscience
, 2010 , Article)
This paper explores recent developments in the trade-offs between energy security, sustainability and globalisation, focusing on the European Union (EU) energy market. The EU's desire to secure long-term supplies of ...
