Each of the... PCHOs is an independent organization, established to operate at arm's length from government in specific areas of health and health-care policy. The federal government provides PCHOs with all or most of their funding and holds them to account through a range of mechanisms. To carry out their mandates, the PCHOs are expected to collaborate with federal, provincial and territorial governments, system leaders, health-care providers, and researchers, as well as with other agencies, and, to varying degrees, patients and the public. 1, record 1, English, - pan%2DCanadian%20health%20organization

[Plasmids] generally account for only a small fraction of the total host cell DNA, they often carry vital genes, such as those that confer resistance to antibiotics. Because it is so much smaller, plasmid DNA can easily be separated from the DNA of the host cell and purified. For use as cloning vectors, such purified plasmid DNA molecules are cut once with a restriction nuclease and then annealed to the DNA fragment that is to be cloned. The hybrid plasmid DNA molecules produced are then reintroduced into bacteria that have been made transiently permeable to macromolecules. Only some of the treated cells will take up a plasmid. They can be selected by the antibiotic resistance conferred on them by the plasmid since they alone will grow in the presence of antibiotic. As these bacteria divide, the plasmid also replicates to produce an enormous number of copies of the original DNA fragment. 1, record 8, English, - plasmid%20DNA

La parenté entre les ADN de deux plasmides peut être mesurée par hybridation; il peut s'agir d'hybridation entre plasmides entiers ou entre fragments d'ADN plasmidique après coupure par une endonucléase de restriction. L'ADN non radioactif du premier plasmide est fixé soit entier, soit après fragmentation et séparation par électrophorèse, sur un filtre, et l'hybridation se fait avec l'ADN radioactif préparé avec l'autre plasmide. La mesure de la radioactivité fixée sur le filtre se fait soit par comptage de la radioactivité dans le cas des plasmides entiers, soit par autoradiographie pour les ADN fragmentés.

If an "executor and trustee" dies without appointing an executor and he is the sole surviving executor of the testator, whether or not his administrator is entitled to complete the trusts interrupted by the executor's death will depend on whether or not the executor was, as to the property concerned, still an executor, or whether, having completed the duties of executor, he had become a trustee.

The CargoLifter is an airship, which can carry up to 160t of freight like a crane. Goods up to the size of 12 x 5 x 5 m can be carried at a speed of 100 km/h. Maximum range is 10. 000 km.... The advantage of CargoLifter is, that transport can take place in rural areas with little or no infrastructure. Transport times are cut by a factor of 10 and the complexity of the project is reduced significantly.... The loading cycle will take about half a day to unload and 3/4 days to load. The CargoLifter can take 72 TEU in a box, but the weight volume ratio is very low(1 : 20). The weight alone would account for 136t or 85% of the payload. The remaining 44t can take 2800 cubic meters of space(weight to volume of 1 : 62).... CargoLifter will use marine diesel engines and propellers for thrust. Installed power is expected to be 9. 3 MW, for a top speed of 135 km/h. The average speed will be about 100 km/h, which requires about 5 MW and an hourly fuel consumption of 1 tonne(specific fuel burn approx. 200 g/kWh). 3, record 10, English, - CargoLifter
