Bio Cement The project aims at attaining high durability of concrete and gaining high strength of cement. We plan to make use of bacterial species which can hydrolyze the enzyme Urease efficiently to produce microbial concrete. Such bacterial are known to produce calcium which is useful in giving strength to cement. We are working in 2 stages. Stage 1: Here we check the effect of bacterial solution on cement mortar and along with that we check the effectiveness of the bacterial solution

Bio Pharma Case Analysis Question 1 How should BioPharma have used its production network in 2009? Should any of the plants have been idled? What is the annual cost of your proposal‚ including import duties? As Landgraf’s objective is to design a more cost-effective network (cost minimization problem subject to various capacity constraints)‚ the following production network in 2009 should have been used by BioPharma: *All numbers below are in millions *Total Transportation Cost=SUMPRODUCT

Gustavo Carro BIO-105 Human vertebral column In human anatomy‚ the vertebral column is a column usually consisting of 24 articulating vertebrae and 9 fused vertebrae in the sacrum and the coccyx. It is situated in the dorsal aspect of the torso‚ separated by intervertebral discs. It houses and protects the spinal cord in its spinal canal. There are normally thirty-three (33) vertebrae in humans‚ including the five that are fused to form the sacrum (the others are separated by intervertebral

Bio Diversity: A Major Concern of Our Eco System The variety of life on Earth‚ its biological diversity is commonly referred to as biodiversity. The number of species of plants‚ animals‚ and microorganisms‚ the enormous diversity of genes in these species‚ the different ecosystems on the planet‚ such as deserts‚ rainforests and coral reefs are all part of a biologically diverse Earth. Appropriate conservation and sustainable development strategies attempt to recognize this as being integral to any
