Film blowing of PHBV blends and PHBV-based multilayers for the production of biodegradable packages [PDF]
Poly(hydroxy butyrate-co-valerate) (PHBV) is a biodegradable polymer that is difficult to melt process into films. Such difficulty is mirrored in the lack of literature on film blowing of PHBV- or PHBV-based materials.

PBAT: Tools for Family-Based Association Studies [PDF]
To the Editor: A large number of computer programs are available for family-based association tests (FBATs), including QTDT (Abecasis et al. 2000), FBAT (Horvath et al. 1998, 2001; Laird et al. 2000; Lake et al. 2000), and PDT (Monks and Kaplan 2000). These programs primarily focus on the computation of various test statistics.
