Managing Strategically in Public Procurement: Dynamic Capabilities, Set‐Asides, and Contract Outcomes

Strategic Change, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A key challenge in public procurement management is balancing equity and efficiency in government procurement. Based on longitudinal data on more than 120,000 US federal service and construction contracts awarded between 2008 and 2018 across over 500 federal agencies, we examine how agency‐level dynamic capabilities shape the performance of ...

Surfactant Enhanced Bioremediation of Saline Diesel Contaminated Water by a Novel Bacterial Halophilic Consortium

Journal of Surfactants and Detergents, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The use of microorganisms is an evolving method for the degradation of hydrocarbon contaminants. In this aim, halophilic hydrocarbon degrading bacteria were isolated from oil contaminated soil in Tunisia. A lipopeptide biosurfactant produced by Bacillus subtilis SPB1 was tested to increase diesel biodegradation along with co‐inoculation with ...

Improved sodium dodecyl sulfate–polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis method for quantifying the 11S/7S ratio in soybean storage proteins

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Accurate quantification of soybean storage protein subunits glycinin (11S) and β‐conglycinin (7S), and their ratio (11S/7S), is essential for applications in plant breeding, food processing, and allergen research. Although sodium dodecyl sulfate–polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS‐PAGE) is widely used due to its accessibility ...

Reclaimed Well Sites on Salt Affected Soils: Electrical Conductivity and Sodium Adsorption Ratio as Plant Community Response Indicators

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Salt affected soils are common worldwide, resulting from natural causes and anthropogenic activities. Saline and sodic soils often occur in association with oil and gas production, impacting soil properties which can impede vegetation growth and development.
