Abstract: TORCH is a medical acronym for a set of perinatal infections: toxoplasmosis, other (syphilis), rubella (German measles), cytomegalovirus (CMV), herpes simplex virus (HSV-1, 2). They are a group of viral, bacterial and protozoan infections that gain access to the fetal bloodstream transplacentally via the chorionic villi or hematogenous transmission any time during gestation or occasionally at the time of delivery via maternal-to-fetal transfusion. TORCH infections may result in abortion, still …

Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus (MRSA) and Its Different Testing Methods: A Review
Abstract: Staphylococcus aureus, a gram-positive bacterium is a serious current health care concern. In the mid-1980s, S. aureus strains emerged that were resistant to the beta-lactamase-stable penicillin, these strains were termed methicillin resistant S. aureus (MRSA). Methicillin resistance in S. aureus is primarily mediated by the mecA gene, which codes for the modified penicillin-binding protein 2a. MRSA strain has become one of the well-known etiologic agents for a wide variety of …

Series Resistor Method for Higher Signal-to-Noise Ratio and High Sensitivity in Superconducting Nanowire Single-Photon Detectors
Abstract: A series resistor method has been presented for higher signal-to-noise and high sensitivity in superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors (SNSPD). This method has given a very high useful data yields exceeding 50% while still maintaining pure single-photon operation and wide dynamic range. The SNSPD signal is roughly proportional to the nanowire width, so narrow nanowire have poor signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) at widths from 4–30 nm and fabrication at these length scales …

Abstract: Existing work proposed a new and practical approach of tuning of a controller in a closed-loop process plant. The approach is a direct tuning method, termed as Extended Fictitious Reference Iterative Tuning (E-FRIT). Now, we propose to generate the reference model from the closed-loop data, where the order of the reference model is decided based on the process dynamics of the closed-loop data. That makes the model maximum possible fit …
