This paper describes the wind tunnel testing of a Blended Wing Body (BWB) with rectangular canards and twisted wing (Baseline II E2 configuration) developed in Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM). The experiment work was carried out in UiTM low speed wind tunnel using 1:6 scaled model of BWB at Mach 0.1. The testing is conducted for canard’s deflection angle between 0° to +20. The results show by adding the canard surface to the BWB’s body, at 12 degree and higher angles of attack,α there will be a slight increment in lift. Maximum lift-to-drag ratio decreases with increasing canard surface deflection. Also, by adding the canard surface, the value of moment at zero lift,CM,0 is increased.

Characterization of Borrelia burgdorferi strains by means of negative staining EM has become an integral part of many studies related to the biology of the Lyme disease organism. However, relying solely upon negative staining to compare new isolates with prototype B31 or other borreliae is often unsatisfactory. To obtain more satisfactory results, we have relied upon a correlative approach encompassing a variety EM techniques, i.e., scanning for topographical features and cryotomy, negative staining and thin sectioning to provide a more complete structural characterization of B. burgdorferi.For characterization, isolates of B. burgdorferi were cultured in BSK II media from which they were removed by low speed centrifugation. The sedimented borrelia were carefully resuspended in stabilizing buffer so as to preserve their features for scanning and negative staining. Alternatively, others were prepared for conventional thin sectioning and for cryotomy using modified procedures. For thin sectioning, the fixative described by Ito, et al.
