Microbial Siderophores
ll4.me Microbial Siderophores In response to low iron availability in the environment most microorganisms synthesize iron chelators, called siderophores. Bacteria and fungi produce a broad range of structurally diverse siderophores, which all show a very high affinity for ferric ions."Microbial Siderophores" presents an up-to-date overview of the chemistry, biology and biotechnology of these iron chelators. Following an introduction to the structure, functions and regulation of fungal siderophores, several chapters focus on siderophores of pseudomonads. Here, the technique of siderotyping, which has proved to be a rapid, accurate and inexpensive tool for pseudomonad characterization and identification, is described. Further, the biological significance of siderophores of symbiotic fungi and the possible role of siderophores in pathogenesis are discussed. In addition to methodological approaches, chapters on the biotechnological production of siderophores and their application in promoting human and plant health are included.

Perceptions of Promise art show opens at UAlberta
Perceptions of Promise, the visionary University of Alberta art show that created an interdisciplinary dialogue between artists and scientists, has come home after a successful run that included a high-profile exhibition in New York. "We #39;re so happy that it #39;s finally come home," said U of A printmaking professor Liz Ingram. "Our students can now see it, and that is so important for teaching." The exhibition explores legal, ethical and social issues about stem-cell research through the eyes of U of A and other internationally known artists. Originally conceived by Sean Caulfield, U of A professor of printmaking, and his brother Tim, research director of the U of A #39;s Health Law and Science Policy Group, it brings scientists and visual artists together to broaden discussion of complex topics involving biotechnology. The aim, say contributors, is not to take positions on either side of what can often be a divisive debate, but to provoke thought and inspire questions. "Biomedical research, especially stem-cell research, tends to be very emotional," says Sean Caulfield. "People have this polarized reaction to it. If we had one broad objective, it would be to see how art might bring a more sophisticated dialogue to the debate, because art tends to be able to articulate emotional and psychological things much more effectively. And I think it can bring people together." The works include an elaborately beaded sculpture created from CT scans of a human torso, a luminous tent with ...From:UniversityofAlbertaViews:25 0ratingsTime:04:42More inEducation

Introduction to Headwall – Video


Introduction to Headwall
Headwall Photonics is one of the world #39;s most innovative companies in the spectral imaging market. Spectral imaging represents technology that can be used in so many different areas. From the inspection of fruit and vegetables along high-speed lines to remote sensing from UAVs and satellites, these instruments provide a wealth of information never before obtainable. Each of Headwall #39;s instruments is classified by its precision within a certain spectral band, such as near-infrared (NIR) or short-wave infrared (SWIR). Further, Headwall makes every spectral sensor #39;rugged #39; for its environment. Sensors placed aboard aircraft and UAVs, for example, are optimized for size, weight, and power-consumption (SWAP) while factoring vibration and temperature into the design. Because poultry inspection lines are well known for being subjected to humidity, heat and cleaning washes, Headwall #39;s instruments take these characteristics into consideration to make sure they run unattended, 24-7. Headwall is making hyperspectral imaging more affordable than ever without compromising key performance characteristics such as spatial and spectral resolution, and wide field-of-view. This means that new application areas are immediate candidates for the wonders of spectral imaging. These include forensics, color measurement, health-care and biotechnology, remote sensing, precision agriculture, minerals and mining, document verification, and ecology. The uses are endless, and the information obtained ...From:Headwall PhotonicsViews:0 0ratingsTime:06:54More inScience Technology

New Level of Fraud Revealed in Prop 37 GMO Labeling Vote – Video


New Level of Fraud Revealed in Prop 37 GMO Labeling Vote
(NaturalNews) Labeling genetically-modified organisms (GMOs) is simply too costly, and any law requiring that GMOs be properly labeled will raise food prices significantly. This was one of the many lies propagated by the biotechnology and processed food industries in the months and weeks leading up to the vote on Proposition 37 in California, the historic GMO labeling initiative that was defeated in large part due to the more than $45 million that Monsanto, Dow, Kraft Foods, and dozens of other industry players hypocritically pumped into the fraudulent No on 37 campaign during the final hour. For the past few weeks, Californians have had to endure a seemingly endless barrage of misleading television commercials and phony voter guide mailers urging them to vote against the labeling proposal because it would allegedly "cost taxpayers and consumers millions," to quote California "family farmer" Ted Sheely, who was prominently featured in a No on 37 propaganda commercial that aired throughout the state. The same commercial, along with several others, also claimed that GMO labeling would increase grocery bills by about $400 per year for the average California family.
