Thermodynamic, diffusion and precipitation behaviors in Cu–Ni–Si–Co alloys: Modeling and experimental validation by Haoyue Ling, Ying Tang, Jing Zhong, Xiangpeng Meng, Min Zhang, Lijun Zhang

“…The simulated volume fractions of (Ni,Co)2Si precipitates in different quaternary alloys along with the time agree well with the experimental data. It is anticipated that the presently obtained quantitative composition-process-microstructure relation can be directly used for efficient design of Cu–Ni–Si–Co alloys, and the developed approaches for establishing thermodynamic/kinetic database as well as quantitative precipitation simulation framework is generally applicable to other multicomponent alloys.…”

Validation of Simple Sequence Length Polymorphism Regions of Commonly Used Mouse Strains for Marker Assisted Speed Congenics Screening by Channabasavaiah B. Gurumurthy, Poonam S. Joshi, Scott G. Kurz, Masato Ohtsuka, Rolen M. Quadros, Donald W. Harms, K. C. Kent Lloyd

“…Marker assisted speed congenics technique is commonly used to facilitate backcrossing of mouse strains in nearly half the time it normally takes otherwise. Traditionally, the technique is performed by analyzing PCR amplified regions of simple sequence length polymorphism (SSLP) markers between the recipient and donor strains: offspring with the highest number of markers showing the recipient genome across all chromosomes is chosen for the next generation. …”
