Chitosan-g-polyaniline: a creatine amidinohydrolase immobilization matrix for creatine biosensor
A novel matrix composed of chitosan-graft-polyaniline (CHIT-g-PANI) was electrochemically prepared to investigate the immobilization of creatine amidinohydrolase (CAH).

Managing Problem‐Framing in Public Procurement of Innovation: The Role of Control
ABSTRACT Public procurement is increasingly employed as an instrument to stimulate innovation. However, little is known about how public actors manage problem‐framing processes in the context of public procurement of innovation. Drawing on the literature of problem‐framing and public procurement, we conduct an exploratory case study of three innovation

ABSTRACT Involvement of corporations in international crimes and conflict atrocities, such as crimes against humanity, war crimes and genocide, are neither isolated events nor uncommon. Importantly, corporate involvement in atrocity crimes is shaped by conditions in “zones of legal risk” (International Commission of Jurists), where gross human rights ...

A search for lithium in metal-poor L dwarfs
The aim of the project is to search for lithium in absorption at 6707.8 Angstroms to constrain the nature and the mass of the brightest low-metallicity L-type dwarfs (refered to as L subdwarfs) identified in large-scale surveys.

Genetic diversity in RHD and RHCE genes among a selected Kenyan blood donor population
Abstract Background Serologic typing for ABO and RhD is standard in transfusion services, with extended serology and genotyping performed to reduce red cell alloimmunization risk. In Kenya, RH typing is limited to RhD, and genotyping is unavailable. This study used RHD/RHCE genotyping to predict phenotypes and their distribution in a Kenyan blood donor

A new model for contact angle hysteresis of superhydrophobic surface
Contact angle hysteresis (CAH) is essential to characterize the wetting properties of a surface. But its underlying causes are not yet understood. A model relating to CAH is presented through mathematical deduction.
