Process of removing a sorbed substance by the reverse of adsorption or absorption.  2, record 3, English, - desorption

Record number: 3, Textual support number: 1 CONT

High ionic strength solutions of electrolytes do tend to cause the desorption of adsorbed proteins. The extent of this depends on the specific enzyme and support material involved, pH, temperature, and perhaps other variables... [Thus, ] an inherent snag in the use of physical adsorption for enzyme immobilization... is the reversible nature of the bonding of enzyme to support... One factor which often causes desorption is the addition of substrate to the enzyme preparation. This is a particular hazard, for although other factors which might cause desorption(such as fluctuation in pH, temperature, or ionic strength) can be controlled, no enzyme can work without its substrate.  3, record 3, English, - desorption

Record number: 3, Textual support number: 1 CONT

La grande facilité de préparation des complexes, l'emploi de méthodes douces préservant l'activité des enzymes, l'application à tous types de biocatalyseurs, rendent la technique d'immobilisation par adsorption très attrayante. Mais les forces d'interactions mises en jeu sont relativement faibles et conduisent souvent, au cours du temps, à une désorption progressive de la protéine qui est alors libérée dans le milieu réactionnel et entraînée avec l'effluent. La désorption de l'enzyme est souvent très rapide. Elle est provoquée par le flux du substrat, par une légère variation du pH ou une augmentation de la force ionique.  3, record 3, French, - d%C3%A9sorption

The auditor should plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that the client's claim is in compliance with the criteria established by provisions of the funding agreement taken in all material respects. Absolute assurance in auditing is not attainable because of such factors as : the nature of audit evidence which is based on the use of testing and where much of the evidence available to the auditor is persuasive, rather than conclusive; the inherent limitations of internal control; and the characteristics of fraud.  2, record 4, English, - persuasive

Par exemple, si un contrôle interne particulier demande qu'un membre du personnel vérifie un calcul et appose ses initiales sur le document pour indiquer que le calcul est exact, l'auditeur peut juger nécessaire de contrôler si l'employé s'est bien acquitté de sa tâche. Pour ce faire, il peut demander à l'employé s'il sait que son travail comporte une telle vérification, constater la présence des initiales de l'employé et revérifier le calcul. Toutefois, rien ne prouve que l'employé n'a pas en fait opposé ses initiales sans vérifier le calcul qui se trouvait être exact.  1, record 4, French, - persuasif

Ecological regimes in a long-term perspective. Regimes did not only come into being to address interpersonal problems, but also to counter problems inherent in our relationship with the surrounding natural environment.... In this section, I... seek to show how that the concept of regime can successfully be used within the context of all of human history. In the first and longest stage of human development, people lived as gatherers and hunters. Their ecological regime, the ways they addressed ecological problems, was very much determined by the opportunities and limitations offered by the surrounding natural environment, by human nature, as well as by their skills.  3, record 5, English, - ecological%20regime

Le «syndrome des années 1950» [...] est un concept forgé par le géographe et météorologiste bernois Heinz Wanner et étendu à l'économique et au social par l'historien suisse Christian Pfister. Par cette expression, il cherche à mettre en évidence le renversement qui s'est effectué au sein des sociétés industrialisées à cette époque. Ce renversement avait déjà été opéré par la révolution industrielle au cours de laquelle on est passé d'une économie organique avec une énergie qui repose sur la biomasse (bois), l'eau et le vent, à une économie minérale où l'énergie est fournie par le charbon et le pétrole. L'«ancien régime écologique», selon son expression, produisait de la chaleur avec le bois, le charbon et la tourbe, mais cette énergie n'était pas transformée en un mouvement mécanique.  2, record 5, French, - r%C3%A9gime%20%C3%A9cologique

The Center for Ocean-Land-Atmosphere Studies(COLA), located in Calverton, Maryland, is a unique institution which allows earth scientists from several disciplines to work closely together on interdisciplinary research related to variability and predictability of Earth's climate on seasonal to decadal time scales. The scientific premise for research at COLA is that there is a predictable element of Earth's current climate that makes it possible to accurately forecast climate variations. While the chaotic nature of the global atmosphere is known to impose a limit on the predictability of the state of the climate at a given instant, the hypothesis behind COLA's research suggests that there is predictability in the midst of chaos, and that accurate climate forecasts with lead times longer than the inherent limit of deterministic predictability are possible.  2, record 8, English, - Center%20for%20Ocean%2DLand%2DAtmosphere%20Studies
