In impulsive orbital maneuvers, thrust vector misalignment from the center of mass (C.M) results in a large disturbance torque. In this paper a thrusting maneuver system is proposed and studied which is based on the combination of a one degree of freedom (1DoF) gimbaled-thruster, two reaction wheels (RWs) and spin-stabilization.

Polymorphisms in cytochrome P450 genes encoding enzymes of critical importance for drug metabolism have the highest genetic influence on interindividual variations in drug bioavailability. Human CYP2D6 enzyme is claimed to be polymorphically expressed among different ethnic groups. It has been suggested to account for a large part of the interindividual differences in drug metabolism and pharmacokinetics.
