Global Data-Driven Determination of Baryon Transition Form Factors.

Hadronic resonances emerge from strong interactions encoding the dynamics of quarks and gluons. The structure of these resonances can be probed by virtual photons parametrized in transition form factors. In this study, twelve N^{*} and Δ transition form factors at the pole are extracted from data with the center-of-mass energy from πN threshold to 1.

Amino acid profiling in plant cell cultures: an inter-laboratory comparison of CE-MS and GC-MS.

A CE-MS method for metabolic profiling of amino acids was developed and used in an integrated functional genomics project to study the response of Medicago truncatula liquid suspension cell cultures to stress. This project required the analysis of more than 500 root cell culture extracts. The CE-MS method profiled 20 biologically important amino acids.

Pro: benchmarking is the absolute prerequisite for timely and significant business process improvement.

Benchmarking in industry has been around for nearly a century, helping companies in nearly every sector imaginable improve their overall performance. Benchmarking's importance in health care, and specifically the clinical laboratory, can be summed up in one simple phrase--"If you cannot measure it, you cannot improve it." Here is why.
