Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells are the primary platform for production of biopharmaceuticals. To increase yields, many CHO cell lines have been genetically engineered to resist death. However, kinetics that governs fate in bioreactors confounded by variables associated with batch processes. Here, we used CRISPR-Cas9 create combinatorial knockouts three known BCL-2 family effector proteins: Bak1, Bax, and Bok. assess response apoptotic stimuli, were cultured presence four cytotoxic...
TDCS for photo-double ionization of helium have been measured in a PhotoElectron-PhotoElectron COincidence (PEPECO) experiment. The obtained the first time at very low excess energies E, 0.6 eV<E<2 eV, both equal and unequal energy sharing between two outgoing electrons. data are compared with predictions Wannier model, also recent, non-Wannier, ab initio calculations. In addition, time, relative magnitudes various determined this region, suggesting departure from model largest studied, E=2 eV.
The radiative decay of $^{1}P^{o}$ doubly excited states in helium has been investigated using a novel apparatus which metastable atoms and vacuum ultraviolet photons are detected. intensity ratio the energetically narrow $(sp,2n\ensuremath{-})^{1}P^{o}$ $(2p,nd)^{1}P^{o}$ series to broader $(sp,2n+)^{1}P^{o}$ is strikingly enhanced comparison with conventional photoabsorption, photoion, or photoelectron measurements synchrotron radiation. experimental approach new way forward for study states.

Secondly, they relative partial ionisation cross sections many ionic states this region, over energy range 1.0 eV above their respective thresholds. dominant contribution these is observed come decay doubly excited neutral or resonances.
Doubly excited neutral states of argon have been investigated by observing their decay into the 3p and 3s main ionisation lines satellite ionic states. These were measured using photoelectron spectroscopy monochromatic synchrotron radiation in range 31.0 to 42.3 eV. The line constant state spectra show structure due doubly but general these are much less prominent than for satellites which dominated resonances, particularly close threshold. There is also a strong selectivity with marked...

Soft X-rays (90-173 eV) from the 3rd generation Canadian Light Source have been used in conjunction with a multi coincidence time and position sensitive detection apparatus to observe dissociative ionization of OCS. By varying X-ray energy we can compare dynamics direct Auger processes, access channels which result two or three body breakup, 2+ 4+ states. We make several new observations for 3+ state such as kinetic release limited by photon energy, using Dalitz plots see evidence timescale...

Abstract Both calcite and vaterite polyerystalline phases of LuBO3 doped with cerium praseodymium have been prepared their fluorescence properties investigated in the visible, near UV VUV regions. The systems exhibit a strong rapid UV-blue typical 5d → 4f parity-allowed transitions dopants. It is shown that excitation transfers from excitions electron-hole pairs to dopants are very efficient. light yield can be three times more efficient than well-known Bi4Ge3O12 scintillator for best samples.
A W: B4C multilayer phase retarder has been designed and characterized which shows a nearly constant retardance between 640 850 eV photon energies when operated near the Bragg condition. This freestanding transmission was used successfully to determine, for first time, full polarization vector at soft x-ray above 600 eV, not possible before due lack of suitable optical elements. Thus, quantitative polarimetry is now 2p edges magnetic substances Fe, Co, Ni benefit circular dichroism...
The reliable and cost-efficient manufacturing of monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) is essential to fulfil their ever-growing demand. Cell death in bioreactors reduces productivity product quality, largely attributed apoptosis. In perfusion bioreactors, this leads the necessity a bleed stream, which negatively affects overall process economy. To combat limitation, death-resistant Chinese hamster ovary cell lines were developed by simultaneously knocking out apoptosis effector proteins Bak1, Bax,...

The asymmetry parameters for photo-double ionization of helium up to 2 eV above threshold have been measured using a coincidence photoelectron spectrometer and synchrotron radiation. observations were made the extreme case unequal energy partitioning between two photoelectrons wherein one electron has near-zero other carries off all excess energy. measurements show that, even in this special case, correlation still plays dominant role.
