English

Subject field(s)
  • Biotechnology
  • Pharmacology
CONT

High throughput screening(HTS) involves the screening of very large collections of small molecules enabled by automation... HTS remains the most popular approach taken when little initial information is known about the particular biological system under investigation. The broad objective of compound screening is to rapidly identify biologically active small molecules or "hits" within a specific area of interest. These hits serve as valuable starting points for further biological evaluation and chemical optimization.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Biotechnologie
  • Pharmacologie
DEF

Opération consistant à faire réagir simultanément un grand nombre de molécules différentes avec un substrat donné, en vue d'identifier, en un minimum de temps, celles de ces molécules qui présentent un intérêt éventuel pour une application déterminée.

OBS

HTS : de l'anglais «high throughput screening».

Record 5 2016-06-07

English

Subject field(s)
  • Rules of Court
CONT

The frivolous complaint does not require an investigation to come to the evident conclusion that it is frivolous. The complaint should not proceed any further when, from a simple initial review, it is evident that it will not be possible to substantiate it because the complainant provided no specific allegations or information surrounding the allegations and, upon request, does not provide the necessary information to initiate a proper investigation of precise behaviours, acts, events or displays.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Règles de procédure
CONT

Lorsque la plainte est frivole, il n'est pas nécessaire de mener une enquête pour conclure à son caractère frivole. Il ne faut pas pousser plus loin l'étude de la plainte si, d'après un simple examen initial, il est évident qu'il sera impossible de la justifier parce que la partie plaignante n'a pas formulé d'allégations précises, n'a pas fourni d'informations déterminées au sujet des allégations et n'a pas, sur demande, fourni les renseignements requis pour amorcer une enquête en bonne et due forme au sujet des comportements, actes, événements ou exhibitions en question.

Campo(s) temático(s)
  • Reglamento procesal
OBS

La queja o denuncia será desechada de plano, por notoria improcedencia cuando: [...] Resulte frívola, es decir, los hechos o argumentos resulten intrascendentes, superficiales, pueriles o ligeros.

Record 8 2003-12-22

English

Subject field(s)
  • Orbital Stations
CONT

The second and third Materials Science Research Rack (MSRR-2 and MSRR-3) configurations will be derived from ongoing science reference experiment and follow-on rack architectural and accommodation tradeoff studies. The rack designs will optimize flexibility for on-orbit maintenance and change out of key components. The MSRR-2 will be designed to accommodate the focus of currently planned and foreseeable materials science investigations through the use of a variety of on-orbit replaceable, investigation class EMs.

CONT

The initial MSRF concept is three Materials Science Research Racks(MSRR-1, MSRR-2, MSRR-3) which will developed for a phased deployment beginning on UF-3 in September, 2001. Concepts for the required Experiment Modules which satisfy the goals and objectives of the Materials Science program, are being developed. It is anticipated that the useful life of each rack will be from a minimum of five(5) to up to ten(10) years. The operational life of the Experiment Modules(EM) is planned for a minimum of five(5) years. The Ems will be designed to be serviceable and maintainable on orbit for their operational duration to satisfy the peer-selected scientific flight investigations. Flexibility is to be included in the design for ORU [Orbital Replaceable Unit] replacement of key components in order to extend useful life. The Experiment Modules for each rack will be designed to be "smart" furnaces with the avionics packages designed to support each investigation. The Experiment Modules for MSRR-2 and MSRR-3 will be designed with optimum flexibility to support on-orbit maintenance and change out of key components.

Subject field(s)
  • Police
OBS

The initial or preliminary investigation... includes the care of injured persons, apprehension of the criminal at the scene or in flight, protection of the crime scene pending a search for physical evidence, and finally the recovery of stolen property.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Police
OBS

...les devoirs du premier policier sur [la] scène [d'un] crime, ce qu'il est convenu d'appeler les constatations préliminaires ou l'enquête préliminaire, comportent les étapes [suivantes]: assistance à la victime; arrestation du suspect; protection de la scène; fouille sommaire; localiser et identifier les témoins; transmettre les informations; noter toute observation; aviser les experts; céder ses responsabilités. Dans le langage policier, l'«enquête préliminaire» est la voie normale par laquelle la police judiciaire accomplit sa mission qui est de constater les infractions à la loi pénale, d'en rassembler les preuves et d'en rechercher les auteurs tant que l'information n'est pas ouverte. L'«enquête préliminaire» peut donc durer plus longtemps qu'un «preliminary investigation» qui se déroule principalement sur la scène d'un crime.
