Production of capsular polysaccharide does not influence Staphylococcus aureus vancomycin susceptibility
(BioMed Central, 2013)Background: Diverse mechanisms (increased cell wall thickness, low cross linking, decreased autolysis, etc.) have been reported for Staphylococcus aureus strains with intermediate vancomycin susceptibility (VISA). This ... -
Production of Commodities and Iron Economy in Early China: A Case Study of a Western Han Iron Foundry at Taicheng
(2015-05-19)How the exchange of commodities and control over resources shaped the social world is a major concern in anthropology. In the domain of history, the form and structure of market economy during the Han period is also a long ... -
Production of fatty acids in Ralstonia eutropha H16 by engineering β-oxidation and carbon storage
(PeerJ Inc., 2015)Ralstonia eutropha H16 is a facultatively autotrophic hydrogen-oxidizing bacterium capable of producing polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB)-based bioplastics. As PHB’s physical properties may be improved by incorporation of ... -
Production of isolated Higgs particle at the Large Hadron Collider
(Elsevier BV, 2010)Theoretical predictions are presented for the process p+p→A+H+B, where H is the Higgs particle and A (B ) is a group of particles that mostly goes down one (the other) beam pipe. These predictions are obtained using results ... -
Production of Mucosally Transmissible SHIV Challenge Stocks from HIV-1 Circulating Recombinant Form 01_AE env Sequences
(Public Library of Science, 2016)Simian-human immunodeficiency virus (SHIV) challenge stocks are critical for preclinical testing of vaccines, antibodies, and other interventions aimed to prevent HIV-1. A major unmet need for the field has been the lack ... -
Production of Pseudomonas aeruginosa Intercellular Small Signaling Molecules in Human Burn Wounds
(SAGE-Hindawi Access to Research, 2011)Pseudomonas aeruginosa has developed a complex cell-to-cell communication system that relies on low-molecular weight excreted molecules to control the production of its virulence factors. We previously characterized the ... -
Production of Stealthin C Involves an S–N-Type Smiles Rearrangement
(American Chemical Society (ACS), 2017)The kinamycin family of aromatic polyketide natural products contains an atypical angucycline ring system substituted with a diazo group. The enzymatic chemistry involved in constructing both of these structural features ... -
Production of Sulfates Onboard an Aircraft: Implications for the Cost and Feasibility of Stratospheric Solar Geoengineering
(Wiley, 2018-04)Injection of sulfate aerosols into the stratosphere, a form of solar geoengineering, has been proposed as a means to reduce some climatic changes by decreasing net anthropogenic radiative forcing. The cost and technical ... -
Production of Xenopus tropicalis Egg Extracts to Identify Microtubule-associated RNAs
(MyJove Corporation, 2013)Many organisms localize mRNAs to specific subcellular destinations to spatially and temporally control gene expression. Recent studies have demonstrated that the majority of the transcriptome is localized to a nonrandom ... -
Production of α-Galactosylceramide by a Prominent Member of the Human Gut Microbiota
(Public Library of Science, 2013)While the human gut microbiota are suspected to produce diffusible small molecules that modulate host signaling pathways, few of these molecules have been identified. Species of Bacteroides and their relatives, which often ... -
Productive Activities and Support Systems of Single Mothers
(University of Chicago Press, 1997)Young single mothers' human capital development and labor market participation are important issues of public policy concern in the United States. This article uses a dynamic approach to model the determinants of single ... -
Productivity and Selection of Human Capital with Machine Learning
(2016)Economists have become increasingly interested in studying the nature of production functions in social policy applications, with the goal of improving productivity. Traditionally models have assumed workers are homogenous ... -

Productivity Effects on Mexican Manufacturing Employment before and after NAFTA
(Center for International Development at Harvard University, 2007-11)A vast literature employs vector autoregressions (VAR) methods in order to capture whether innovations in productivity lead to increases or decreases in employment for U.S. manufacturing. Studying 25 Mexican manufacturing ... -
Productivity Spillovers in Healthcare: Evidence From the Treatment of Heart Attacks
(University of Chicago Press, 2007)A large literature in medicine documents variation across areas in the use of surgical treatments that is unrelated to outcomes. Observers of this phenomenon have invoked "flat of the curve medicine" to explain it and have ... -
Productivity Variation and Input Misallocation: Evidence from Hospitals
(Harvard Kennedy School, 2023-08)There are widespread differences in total factor productivity across producers in the U.S. and around the world. To help explain these variations, we devise a general test for misallocation in input choices – the underuse ... -
Products Liability and Product Safety: Japan and the U.S.
(John M. Olin Center for Law, Economics, and Business. Harvard Law School., 2012)Consumers in wealthy countries like the U.S. and Japan usually know what they want, and how to obtain it. In such markets, the sellers who thrive should tend to be those who offer consumers the level of safety they want ... -
Products Liability Through Private Ordering: Notes on a Japanese Experiment
(University of Pennsylvania, 1996)Any justification of strict products liability faces a problem: why should the law impose on private contracts made in competitive product markets what is effectively a mandatory insurance contract? Proponents of the current ... -
Professional Development for Reading Achievement: Results from the Collaborative Language and Literacy Instruction Project (CLLIP)
(University of Chicago Press, 2012)The Collaborative Language and Literacy Instruction Project (CLLIP) is a model of professional development designed to help teachers incorporate research-based practices of literacy instruction, support mastery, and sustained ...
