Transformation of Escherichia coli plays an important role in recombinant DNA technology. Most current transformation protocols require that the cells be treated to attain a particular physiological state known as "competence," and this makes transformation procedures lengthy and arduous. Here we describe a protocol f…

The influence of γ-irradiation on the electrical, swelling and mechanical properties of cross- linked butyl (IIR) rubber and ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM) and their blends have been investigated. The modulus increased, while the elongation at break decreased with irradiation. The gap width between carbon-car…
