Although transdermal drug delivery has many potential advantages, the permeability of skin to macromolecules is extremely low. However, the application of short, high-voltage pulses to electroporate skin has recently been shown to make it reversibly permeable. A number of studies have demonstrated that electroporation-mediated …

Nearly all Data Mining methodologies acknowledge the importance of the human user but do not clearly delineate and explain the tasks where human intelligence should be leveraged or in what manner. In this chapter we propose to describe various tasks of the domain understanding phase which require human intelligence for their …
Two other engineering designs are used in biomining operations. Stirred tank bioreactors are used almost exclusively for bio-oxidation of refractory gold concentrates (due to their relatively high costs) in which the fine gold particles are enshrouded by sulfide minerals (mainly arsenopyrite and pyrite [2]).Individual mineral bio-processing tanks can …
Commercial reality is a momentous milestone for scientists and engineers who have labored some 30 years and extolled the virtues of biotechnology for mining. It also represents a major shift in the industry's approach to …

Biotechnology could provide many innovative alternatives for changing the way metals are obtained. Microbes have been used to dissolve metallic minerals and release metal ions into solution, from which pure metal can be obtained by electrolysis. Plants that accumulate metals in their roots and leaves have been used to concentrate …
Abstract Applications of biotechnology are in use or have been proposed for almost all sectors of the mining and minerals industries for metal extraction, metal recovery, and environmental control. A recently completed study in Canada reviewed the status of biotechnological process development in different sectors of the industry and by …
It is estimated that over 99% of microorganisms have not as yet been cultivated (Whitman et al., 1998).These uncultured microbes are the 'dark matter' of the microbiological world and play important roles in natural ecosystems and the human microbiome (Lagier et al., 2012; Rinke et al., 2013); however, their ecological role and …
Incorporating AI in healthcare delivery.

2. The many ways mining activities impact biodiversity. Mining affects biodiversity at multiple spatial scales (site, landscape, regional and global) through direct (i.e. mineral extraction) and indirect processes (via industries supporting mining operations, and external stakeholders who gain access to biodiversity-rich areas as the result of mining).
For about 10 years, from the mid-1960s to the mid-1970s, we and our colleagues had the opportunity to develop several such models aimed at making sense out of some of the more vexing phenomena encountered in the delivery of health and human services.

The overall objectives of this study are: (a) to review available information on the U.S. mining industry; (b) to identify critical research and development needs related to the exploration, mining, and processing of coal, minerals, and metals; and (c) to examine the federal contribution to research and development in mining processes.
Modern mining practices routinely integrate technology in mining into workflows to improve operational efficiencies. While competitiveness is a compelling reason for innovation, technology development and the use of artificial intelligence (AI) can also play a role in managing employee health, decreasing safety risks, and managing the …
Advances in technological and bioinformatics approaches have led to the generation of a plethora of human gut metagenomic datasets. Metabolomics has also provided substantial data regarding the small metabolites produced and modified by the microbiota. Comparatively, the microbial enzymes mediating the transformation of metabolites have …
