Abstract: The present invention relates to systems and methods for model scoring and selection. Six or more metrics that are relevant to the model are initially selected, and weights are assigned to each metric. A first subset of the metrics are selected, including metrics for model fit and model error for primary regression. A second subset of metrics including at least two penalty functions are then selected for percentage of incidence. The scores from the primary regression and penalty calculations are aggregated into a final score. Multiple models can be scored and utilized to select a “best” model via an iterative culling of low scoring models and “breeding” of the high scoring models.

Abstract: The invention relates to the field of microbiology, specifically to a bacteriophage, polypeptide and a corresponding polynucleotide, a nucleic acid molecule and/or vector and/or cell comprising such polynucleotide, a composition comprising said bacteriophage, polypeptide, polynucleotide, construct, vector and/or cell, preferably for preventing, treating or diagnosing contamination with and/or a condition in an individual related to Salmonella. The invention further relates to an antimicrobial composition for medical use or for use as a food additive or as a disinfectant, or for detecting bacteria, preferably in a diagnostic application, wherein said antimicrobial composition comprises a bacteriophage, polypeptide, corresponding polynucleotide, construct and/or vector and/or cell comprising such polypeptide and/or composition according to the present invention.

Abstract: The present invention is related to a new scalable method of forming graphite oxide (only one or few layers of carbon atoms) of high purity (notably without metallic residues) and high oxidation degree from graphite flakes in a cost-effective and reduced environmental impact.
