Noncommutative causality in algebraic quantum field theory
In the paper it will be argued that embracing noncommuting common causes in the causal explanation of quantum correlations in algebraic quantum field theory has the following two beneficial consequences: it helps (i) to maintain the validity of Reichenbach's Common Causal Principle and (ii) to provide a local common causal explanation for a set of correlations violating the Bell inequality
The design, development and application of electrochemical glutamate biosensors
The development of biosensors for the determination of glutamate has been of great research interest for the past 25 years due to its importance in biomedical and food studies. This review focusses on the various strategies used to fabricate glutamate biosensors as well as their performance characteristics. A brief comparison of the enzyme immobilisation method employed and the performance characteristics of a range of glutamate biosensors are described in tabular form and then described in detail throughout the review: some selected examples have been included to demonstrate the various applications of these biosensors to real samples
Prediction of muscle content of steer carcasses
WITH the emphasis in beef production shifting rapidly to the development of cattle with a high lean content, it is becoming increasingly important that methods should be available whereby accurate prediction of carcass muscle can be made. The accepted practice of using measurements of a cross-section of the longissimus dorsi muscle has been shown to have a low degree of accuracy 1,2
