title: Ripping yarns: Science in Asia

authors: Barker, Miles

subjects: Joseph Rock

abstract: The article explores the life and works of botanist Joseph Rock, historian Joseph Needham, and physicist J. C. Bose. Rock's expeditions and personality have become an enduring part of China's history which shows the notion that scientists participate in public affairs. Needham has embraced the documentation of the country's history of science and technology. Bose's infusion of three careers shows the notion that science is a blend of logic and imagination.

title: Deactivation of TEM-1 beta-Lactamase investigated by isothermal batch and non-isothermal continuous enzyme membrane reactor methods

authors: Rogers, Thomas A.

subjects: biocatalysis

abstract: The thermal deactivation of TEM-1 β-lactamase was examined using two experimental techniques: a series of isothermal batch assays and a single, continuous, non-isothermal assay in an enzyme membrane reactor (EMR). The isothermal batch-mode technique was coupled with the three-state  Equilibrium Model  of enzyme deactivation, while the results of the EMR experiment were fitted to a four-state  molten globule model . The two methods both led to the conclusions that the thermal deactivation of TEM-1 β -lactamase does not follow the Lumry-Eyring model and that the Teq of the enzyme (the point at which active and inactive states are present in equal amounts due to thermodynamic equilibrium) is at least 10 °C from the Tm (melting temperature), contrary to the idea that the true temperature optimum of a biocatalyst is necessarily close to the melting temperature.

title: Te Pai Tawhiti: Exploring the Horizons of Maori Economic Performance through Effective Collaboration

authors: Joseph, Robert

abstract: Effective collaboration, good governance and active management provide a potential platform for enhanced economic performance for Ngāti Pikiao, in line with its self-determination aspirations to
work better as a collective of entities on behalf of iwi members.

Literature and case study data analyses show a pathway forward for Ngāti Pikiao in the form of 9 key principles for working towards a foundation for effective collaborative action that enhances economic
performance.
