Social banishment and the US “Criminal alien”: norms of violence and repression in the deportation regime
Authors: C. Brotherton David 
Published: May 2018

Cet article mobilise les données issues d’un travail d’observation participante au sein d’audiences d’expulsion de migrants dans le nord-est des États-Unis en se focalisant sur deux thématiques : (i) l’émergence d’un régime de déportation et ses mécanismes de violence structurelle et (ii) les normes de la violence dans les espaces de ce régime de déportation. Par régime de déportation, nous faisons ici référence aux systèmes et pratiques institutionnels créés par l’émergence d’un état de sécurité exceptionnel, aux appareils et rituels discrets et peu discrets utilisés pour discipliner les esprits et les corps des travailleurs immigrants avec ou sans papiers, et leurs conséquences collatérales. La violence structurelle se réfère aux arrangements systémiques qui infligent des dommages sociaux aux individus en les privant de leurs droits fondamentaux à l’existence, conduisant souvent à leur mort prématurée. L’article explore différentes formes de violence dans les espaces sociaux où le régime exerce son pouvoir presque incontrôlé. Il soutient que la violence qui découle du régime a un impact important non seulement sur les non-citoyens immigrants, mais aussi sur les citoyens immigrants et les citoyens non-immigrants. Cette violence structurelle induit un effet de spirale et d’amplification qui diffuse un large éventail de relations sociales, car son pouvoir intimide, terrorise, contient et subordonne des individus et des communautés, les soumettant à son mandat imposé par l’État pour retirer des éléments « indésirables » du corps social. Ces politiques et pratiques, parrainées par l’État, visent à déshumaniser, désorienter, distraire, humilier et intimider et ne sont pas les conséquences involontaires de politiques autrement rationnelles et mesurées visant le bien commun.
Le pouvoir de régulation transnational d'une agence nationale
Authors: Benoît Cyril 
Published: May 2018

Résumé L'article questionne la propension de schémas de régulation nationaux à façonner le comportement et les représentations d'entreprises « globalisées ». On étudie pour ce faire le déploiement d'agences d'évaluation médico-économique et ses effets dans le secteur pharmaceutique. Au sein de l'industrie, l'adoption des attentes et des méthodes d'évaluation spécifiques à une seule agence nationale située en Angleterre est observée. Deux explications de cette situation sont alors avancées. Un travail politique des experts de l'agence en question est d'abord mis au jour. Leur présence dans de multiples espaces internationaux a ainsi permis une importante valorisation des standards réglementaires utilisés. Dans un second temps, ces initiatives provoquent une émulation au sein de l'industrie. Convaincus que les approches du régulateur anglais sont amenées à se généraliser, les industriels en adoptent graduellement les principes. La légitimité qui leur est accordée produit en retour des effets sur les stratégies de développement des médicaments, et sur la relation des industriels avec les autres agences de régulation nationales.
Low levels of nitryl chloride at ground level: nocturnal nitrogen oxides in the Lower Fraser Valley of British Columbia

Abstract. The nocturnal nitrogen oxides, which include the nitrate radical (NO3),
dinitrogen pentoxide (N2O5), and its uptake product on chloride
containing aerosol, nitryl chloride (ClNO2), can have profound impacts
on the lifetime of NOx (= NO + NO2), radical budgets, and
next-day photochemical ozone (O3) production, yet their abundances and
chemistry are only sparsely constrained by ambient air measurements. Here, we present a measurement data set collected at a routine monitoring
site near the Abbotsford International Airport (YXX) located approximately
30 km from the Pacific Ocean in the Lower Fraser Valley (LFV) on the west
coast of British Columbia. Measurements were made from 20 July to 4 August
2012 and included mixing ratios of ClNO2, N2O5, NO,
NO2, total odd nitrogen (NOy), O3, photolysis frequencies,
and size distribution and composition of non-refractory submicron aerosol
(PM1). At night, O3 was rapidly and often completely removed by dry deposition
and by titration with NO of anthropogenic origin and unsaturated biogenic
hydrocarbons in a shallow nocturnal inversion surface layer. The low
nocturnal O3 mixing ratios and presence of strong chemical sinks for
NO3 limited the extent of nocturnal nitrogen oxide chemistry at ground
level. Consequently, mixing ratios of N2O5 and ClNO2 were low
(< 30 and < 100 parts-per-trillion by volume (pptv) and
median nocturnal peak values of 7.8 and 7.9 pptv, respectively). Mixing
ratios of ClNO2 frequently peaked 1–2 h after sunrise
rationalized by more efficient formation of ClNO2 in the nocturnal
residual layer aloft than at the surface and the breakup of the nocturnal
boundary layer structure in the morning. When quantifiable, production of
ClNO2 from N2O5 was efficient and likely occurred
predominantly on unquantified supermicron-sized or refractory sea-salt-derived aerosol. After sunrise, production of Cl radicals from photolysis of
ClNO2 was negligible compared to production of OH from the reaction of
O(1D) + H2O except for a short period after sunrise.
Global warming potential estimates for the C1–C3 hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs) included in the Kigali Amendment to the Montreal Protocol
Authors: Papanastasiou Dimitrios K. , Beltrone Allison , Marshall Paul , Burkholder James B. 
Published: May 2018

Abstract. Hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs) are ozone depleting substances and potent
greenhouse gases that are controlled under the Montreal Protocol. However,
the majority of the 274 HCFCs included in Annex C of the protocol do not have
reported global warming potentials (GWPs) which are used to guide the
phaseout of HCFCs and the future phase down of hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs). In
this study, GWPs for all C1–C3 HCFCs included in Annex C are
reported based on estimated atmospheric lifetimes and theoretical methods
used to calculate infrared absorption spectra. Atmospheric lifetimes were
estimated from a structure activity relationship (SAR) for OH radical
reactivity and estimated O(1D) reactivity and UV photolysis loss
processes. The C1–C3 HCFCs display a wide range of lifetimes (0.3
to 62 years) and GWPs (5 to 5330, 100-year time horizon) dependent on their
molecular structure and the H-atom content of the individual HCFC. The results
from this study provide estimated policy-relevant GWP metrics for the HCFCs
included in the Montreal Protocol in the absence of experimentally derived
metrics.

Published: May 2018

Abstract. We measured amines in boreal forest air in Finland both in gas and particle
phases with 1 h time resolution using an online ion chromatograph
(instrument for Measuring AeRosols and Gases in Ambient Air – MARGA)
connected to an electrospray ionization quadrupole mass spectrometer (MS).
The developed MARGA-MS method was able to separate and detect seven different
amines: monomethylamine (MMA), dimethylamine (DMA), trimethylamine (TMA),
ethylamine (EA), diethylamine (DEA), propylamine (PA), and butylamine (BA).
The detection limits of the method for amines were low
(0.2–3.1 ng m−3), the accuracy of IC-MS analysis was 11–37 %, and
the precision 10–15 %. The proper measurements in the boreal forest
covered about 8 weeks between March and December 2015. The amines were found
to be an inhomogeneous group of compounds, showing different seasonal and
diurnal variability. Total MMA (MMA(tot)) peaked together with the sum of
ammonia and ammonium ions already in March. In March, monthly means for MMA
were < 2.4 and 6.8 ± 9.1 ng m−3 in gas and aerosol phases,
respectively, and for NH3 and NH4+ these were 52 ± 16 and
425 ± 371 ng m−3, respectively. Monthly medians in March for
MMA(tot), NH3, and NH4+ were < 2.4, 19 and 90 ng m−3,
respectively. DMA(tot) and TMA(tot) had summer maxima indicating biogenic
sources. We observed diurnal variation for DMA(tot) but not for TMA(tot). The
highest concentrations of these compounds were measured in July. Then,
monthly means for DMA were < 3.1 and 8.4 ± 3.1 ng m−3 in gas
and aerosol phases, respectively, and for TMA these were 0.4 ± 0.1 and
1.8 ± 0.5 ng m−3. Monthly medians in July for DMA were below the
detection limit (DL) and 4.9 ng m−3 in gas and aerosol phases,
respectively, and for TMA these were 0.4 and 1.4 ng m−3. When relative
humidity of air was > 90 %, gas-phase DMA correlated well with
1.1–2 nm particle number concentration (R2=0.63) suggesting that it
participates in atmospheric clustering. EA concentrations were low all the
time. Its July means were < 0.36 and 0.4 ± 0.4 ng m−3 in gas
and aerosol phases, respectively, but individual concentration data
correlated well with monoterpene concentrations in July. Monthly means of PA
and BA were below detection limits at all times.
Gap-filling a spatially explicit plant trait database: comparing imputation methods and different levels of environmental information

Published: May 2018

Abstract. The ubiquity of missing data in plant trait databases may hinder trait-based
analyses of ecological patterns and processes. Spatially explicit datasets
with information on intraspecific trait variability are rare but offer great
promise in improving our understanding of functional biogeography. At the
same time, they offer specific challenges in terms of data imputation. Here
we compare statistical imputation approaches, using varying levels of
environmental information, for five plant traits (leaf biomass to sapwood
area ratio, leaf nitrogen content, maximum tree height, leaf mass per area
and wood density) in a spatially explicit plant trait dataset of temperate
and Mediterranean tree species (Ecological and Forest Inventory of Catalonia,
IEFC, dataset for Catalonia, north-east Iberian Peninsula,
31 900 km2). We simulated gaps at different missingness levels
(10–80 %) in a complete trait matrix, and we used overall trait means,
species means, k nearest neighbours (kNN), ordinary and regression kriging,
and multivariate imputation using chained equations (MICE) to impute missing
trait values. We assessed these methods in terms of their accuracy and of
their ability to preserve trait distributions, multi-trait correlation
structure and bivariate trait relationships. The relatively good performance
of mean and species mean imputations in terms of accuracy masked a poor
representation of trait distributions and multivariate trait structure.
Species identity improved MICE imputations for all traits, whereas forest
structure and topography improved imputations for some traits. No method
performed best consistently for the five studied traits, but, considering all
traits and performance metrics, MICE informed by relevant ecological
variables gave the best results. However, at higher missingness
(> 30 %), species mean imputations and regression kriging tended to
outperform MICE for some traits. MICE informed by relevant ecological
variables allowed us to fill the gaps in the IEFC incomplete dataset
(5495 plots) and quantify imputation uncertainty. Resulting spatial patterns
of the studied traits in Catalan forests were broadly similar when using
species means, regression kriging or the best-performing MICE application,
but some important discrepancies were observed at the local level. Our
results highlight the need to assess imputation quality beyond just
imputation accuracy and show that including environmental information in
statistical imputation approaches yields more plausible imputations in
spatially explicit plant trait datasets.
Luke of Prague: Theologian of the Unity
Authors: Crews C. Daniel 
Published: May 2018

ABSTRACT
Luke of Prague (Lukáš Pražský) (ca. 1460–1528) was a theologian and head of the Unitas Fratrum and, as such, one of the most important figures among the Unity of Brethren. During his studies at Charles University in Prague, Luke was introduced to the theological writings of Petr Chelčický. After 1494, during an open schism that occurred within the Unitas Fratrum, Luke helped reconfigure, consolidate, and restore the theology and polity in the Synod's “Major Party.” In the last years of his life, when the Protestant Reformation was just underway, he made initial (critical) contacts with Martin Luther and Melanchthon. This study examines the historiography of Luke, his biography, leadership, and controversies. Additionally, the author discusses the role of Luke in the Protestant Reformation, his views on theology and scripture, the church, and the catechism. His theological processes provide insight about how Moravians can bring about church reform today.
Assessment of the Content of Fluorescent Tracer in Granular Feed Mixture
Authors: Matuszek Dominika B , Wojtkiewicz Krystian 
Published: May 2018

Abstract
Background: This paper describes the use of fluorescence induced by UV radiation to evaluate the share of tracer in feed mixture. Methods: For the purpose of this study, three substances were used. They are as follows: Tinopal, Rhodamine B, and Uranine. Tracer in the form of maize or kardi was added to chicken feed before the mixing process. Grains used in the process were grinded in the mill sieve with a mesh size of 4 and 6 mm. The drawn samples of the mixture were illuminated with UV radiation to make grain tracer light, and then the photo was taken with a digital camera. The acquired images were analyzed with the use of a computer program running on the RGB color model, which was the way to obtain essential information about the percentage share of tracer. Results: It was observed that, in the case of kardi grains, the proposed method gives results significantly deviating from the verification method. Conclusions: Only the tests with the use of maize having an average particle diameter of 2.4 mm and tinted with the solution of Rhodamine B led to acceptable results (consensual with the predetermined verification level).

Published: May 2018

Abstract
Background: The composition and sequence of amino acids have a prominent influence on the antioxidant activities of peptides. Objective: A series of isolation and purification experiments was conducted to explore the amino acid sequence of antioxidant peptides, which led to its antioxidation causes. Methods: The degreased apricot seed kernels were hydrolyzed by compound proteases of alkaline protease and flavor protease (3:2, u/u) to prepare apricot seed kernel hydrolysates (ASKH). ASKH were separated into ASKH-A and ASKH-B by dialysis bag. ASKH-B (MW &lt; 3.5 kDa) was further separated into fractions by Sephadex G-25 and G-15 gel-filtration chromatography. Reversed-phase HPLC (RP-HPLC) was performed to separate fraction B4b into two antioxidant peptides (peptide B4b-4 and B4b-6). Results: The amino acid sequences were Val-Leu-Tyr-Ile-Trp and Ser-Val-Pro-Tyr-Glu, respectively. Conclusions: The results suggested that ASKH antioxidant peptides may have potential utility as healthy ingredients and as food preservatives due to their antioxidant activity. Highlights: Materials with regional characteristics were selected to explore, and hydrolysates were identified by RP-HPLC and matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time-of-flight-MS to obtain amino acid sequences.
Development of Lateral Flow Immunochromatographic Strips for Micropollutants Screening Using Colorants of Aptamer Functionalized Nanogold Particles Part I Methodology and Optimization

Published: May 2018

Abstract
A methodology of lateral flow immunochromatographic strip based on aptamer was developed for on-site detection of the small molecule micropollutants. In the present study, we try for the first time to investigate the feasibility of developing a strip assay for the analysis of micropollutants as methodological prototypes by combining the high selectivity and affinity of aptamers with the unique optical properties of nanogolds. This quantitative method was based on the competition for the aptamer between targets and DNA probes. Crucial parameters that might influence the sensitivity, such as the size of nanogolds, amount of aptamer, type and pH of streptavidin, type of nitrocellulose (NC) membrane, blocking procedure, and reading time, were systematically investigated to obtain the optimum assay performance. With the optimized conditions [nanogolds 25 nm, 50 μM aptamer, pH 8 of GSA (a type of streptavidin named “SA Gold,” which is a sulfhydrylization streptavidin), Millipore HFC 135 NC membrane, 1% bovine serum albumin as the blocking agent and added in the running buffer and sample pad soakage agents, and 20 min reading time] the aptamer-based lateral flow assay will show a low visual limit of detection and scanning reader LOD. The strip for on-site screening using colorants of aptamer functionalized nanogold particles did not require any complicated equipment and was a potential portable tool for rapid identification of micropollutants.
Hors chant. Arrangements godardiens pour violoncelle et cordes élargies
Authors: Faucon Térésa 
Published: May 2018

Dans les compositions musicales de ses films, Jean-Luc Godard nous fait entendre son écoute d’oeuvres musicales, invente des arrangements avec les moyens du cinéma qui pourraient porter une double signature, Beethoven-Godard, Dvořák-Godard, comme les arrangements des musiciens Beethoven-Liszt ou Bach-Webern. Pour cette étude, nous avons choisi de nous concentrer sur les oeuvres pour violoncelle, instrument pour lequel Godard semble avoir une prédilection comme pour les cordes frottées en général pour la plasticité de la matière sonore. Nous analysons l’arrangement du Concerto pour violoncelle et orchestre en si mineur, op. 104 d’Antonin Dvořák(1895) dans Je vous salue, Marie (1983) puis la conversation entre deux compositeurs et interprètes, Godard au banc montage et David Darling, avec son violoncelle à huit cordes et les oeuvres originales créés pour le cinéaste.
L’invention musicale face à la nature dans Grizzly Man, The Wild Blue Yonder et La grotte des rêves perdus de Werner Herzog
Authors: Deville Vincent 
Published: May 2018

Quand le cinéaste allemand Werner Herzog réalise ou produit trois documentaires sur la création et l’enregistrement de la musique de trois de ses films entre 2005 et 2011, il effectue un double geste de révélation et d’incarnation : les notes nous deviennent visibles à travers le corps des musiciens. Ce faisant, Herzog nous délivre son art poétique : les formes musicales répondent à la nature, si présente dans ses films ; la nature est envisagée comme un instrument d’accord tandis que la musique devient une puissance d’estrangement, de désaccord de nos perceptions ; et en nous donnant accès aussi bien à un infigurable – l’être moral – qu’au corps matériel fait de chair et d’os, la musique nous ouvre la voie qui mène au coeur du monde.
Candidate genes in gastric cancer identified by constructing a weighted gene co-expression network
Authors: Chen Jian , Wang Xiuwen , Hu Bing , He Yifu , Qian Xiaojun , Wang Wei 
Published: May 2018

Background
Gastric cancer (GC) is one of the most common cancers with high mortality globally. However, the molecular mechanisms of GC are unclear, and the prognosis of GC is poor. Therefore, it is important to explore the underlying mechanisms and screen for novel prognostic markers and treatment targets.

Methods
The genetic and clinical data of GC patients in The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) was analyzed by weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA). Modules with clinical significance and preservation were distinguished, and gene ontology and pathway enrichment analysis were performed. Hub genes of these modules were validated in the TCGA dataset and another independent dataset from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database by t-test. Furthermore, the significance of these genes was confirmed via survival analysis.

Results
We found a preserved module consisting of 506 genes was associated with clinical traits including pathologic T stage and histologic grade. PDGFRB, COL8A1, EFEMP2, FBN1, EMILIN1, FSTL1 and KIRREL were identified as candidate genes in the module. Their expression levels were correlated with pathologic T stage and histologic grade, also affected overall survival of GC patients.

Conclusion
These candidate genes may be involved in proliferation and differentiation of GC cells. They may serve as novel prognostic markers and treatment targets. Moreover, most of them were first reported in GC and deserved further research.
