Abstract: Disclosed herein are compositions for assessing peptidoglycan (PG) biosynthesis in bacteria using modified D-amino acids covalently attached to a molecular rotor and visualizing the labeled PG in bacteria based upon the enhanced fluorescence of the molecular rotor incorporated in the PG. The resultant, labeled peptidoglycan structures are amenable for identification by microscopic visualization, flow cytometry or other suitable methods.

Abstract: The invention applies to plasma display panels consisting of two facing plates enclosing a discharge space and comprising an array of discharge cells (X1, X2, . . . , X5, etc.). A display panel according to the invention has at least one porous layer which contains less than 10% of a hardening agent. The porous layer is either a barrier layer or a gettering layer.

Abstract: A method of processing seismic signals detected by at least one sensor disposed in a tool lowered down a borehole, the seismic signals Sj(t) being recorded at different depths j of the tool in response to the propagation of seismic waves through the formations surrounding the borehole, the method making use of the signals Shj(t) detected by the sensor at each depth j in response to excitation from a shaker disposed inside the tool, the method being characterized by the fact that it comprises the following operations: a reference signal Shref(t) is defined for the excitation response produced by the shaker; a deconvolution function Dj(t) is calculated for each signal Shj(t) picked up at depth j in response to the excitation produced by the shaker in such a manner that the signal Shj(t) picked up at this depth after being convoluted with said deconvolution function Dj(t) gives the reference signal Shref(t); and the deconvolution function Dj(t) corresponding to depth j is applied to each seismic signal Sj(t) pic
