Many studies have reported that cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 3 (CDKN3) is involved in the cell cycle. However, function of CDKN3 has not been well elucidated organisms. In this study, a multiallelic indel caused by 19-bp fragment and 2 × 19 bp was shown for first time to be inserted into promoter gene 1994 chickens from 9 different breeds. addition, 6 genotypes (C5 C5, C4 C4, C3 C3, C5) were observed (C3 C5 bp, 4 5 respectively). Among these genotypes, genotype most dominant The results...

The accurate determination of volatile fatty acids (VFAs) and total alkalinity (TAC, mostly carried by bicarbonate ions) is critical for operating anaerobic digesters. FOS/TAC titration method developed Nordmann widely used due to its simplicity affordability. This has known limitations in dosing VFAs TAC, since the presence one interferes with other, especially at higher VFA or concentrations. study builds upon our prior research 2021 integrating influence phosphate (H2PO4−/HPO42−) into...

The determination of a volatile fatty acid content (FOS) and total alkalinity (TAC) can be carried out using Nordmann’s FOS/TAC titration method developed in the 1970s. This two-point (pH = 5 4.4) simply implemented is widely employed by both academic industrial worlds. However, present study proves that only valid limited ranges, since one FOS TAC has an impact on other, especially extreme conditions. work develops numerical tool with Scilab simulating acid–base equilibria titration....
