The benchmark risk-averse equilibrium model does not explain some of the outcomes obtained in experiments with first-price auctions.Nonetheless, the presence of non-linear bidding and the wide dispersion of bids have received little attention in the literature.I focus on these issues and revisit previous laboratory evidence with the help of model-b
Time-Kill Kinetics of Lipid Fractions Isolated from Condiments against Foodborne Pathogens
Lipid fractions that are extracted from condiments have a wide array of biological potential and are commonly utilized for medicinal and culinary applications.This investigation aims at determining the antimicrobial potential of lipid fractions isolated using two different solvent systems against five foodborne pathogens.The antibacterial efficacy
An Intensive Observation of Calving at Helheim Glacier, East Greenland
Calving of glacial ice into the ocean from the Greenland Ice Sheet is an important component of global sea level rise.The calving process itself is relatively poorly observed, understood, and modeled; as such, it represents a bottleneck in improving future global sea level estimates in climate models.We organized a pilot project to observe PURE VOL
Examining the Role of Predictor Variables of Mental Health and Personality Subscales in Internet Addiction of Students in Medical and non-Medical Universities of Sanandaj in 2014
Background and objective: According to the high and increasing prevalence of internet addiction, and the fact that little research has been done on the predictors of internet addiction in Iran, the purpose of this study was to examine the role of predictor variables of mental health and personality subscales in internet addiction of students in med
Challenges and Limitations of Anti-quorum Sensing Therapies
Quorum sensing (QS) is a mechanism allowing microorganisms to sense population density and synchronously control genes expression.It has been shown that QS supervises the activity of many processes important for microbial pathogenicity, e.g., sporulation, biofilm formation, and secretion of enzymes or membrane vesicles.This contributed to the conce
