Authors: Cunha Carlos Wallace , Rodrigues Carolina , Magri Lais Valencise , Matos Bruno Henrique Figueiredo , Bataglion Cesar , Mazzetto Marcelo Oliveira 
Published: July 2016

Objective: To describe a case of unilateral TMJ osteoarthritis from the Dentistry point of view, aiming to restore the quality of life through non-invasive procedures. Description of case: M.C.B., female, 69 years, complaining about a sudden change in the bite, difficulty to chewing/opening mouth and pain in the orofacial region. At extraoral examination, we observe the presence of crepitus in the left TMJ, click in the right TMJ (electrovibratography) and pain on palpation in the left TMJ region. Absence of tooth contacts on the right side in maximum habitual intercuspation (MHI). The intraoral examination revealed the presence of inflammation and excessive wear in the left mandibular condyle (osteoarthritis), visualized by computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging with contrast. The patient underwent treatment by oclusal splint (night use), overlay removable partial dentures (daytime use), application of lower level laser therapy and transcutaneous electrical nervous stimulation (TENS). Masticatory function, mouth opening, and aesthetics improved. Conclusion: Conservative therapies may be a good option for the re-establishment of the quality of life in subjects with TMJ osteoarthritis, inasmuch as it can postpone or delete the indication of more invasive techniques (e.g. surgery).

Authors: Miranda João Luiz de , Douglas de Oliveira Dhelfeson Willya , Menezes-Silva Rafael , Freitas Roseana de Almeida 
Published: July 2016

Objective: In this study, the expression of the extracellular matrix proteins was immunohistochemically studied and compared with the histological grading of squamous cell carcinomas of the lower lip and tongue. Material and Methods: The lower lip carcinomas (n=12) and the tongue carcinomas (n=12) were histopathologically graduated according to Bryne’s method. The immunohistochemical technique utilized specific antibodies to collagen IV and laminin. Histopathologic and immunohistochemical analysis were carried-out on the tumoral invasive front. Results: Most of lower lip carcinomas (91.7%) was classified in lower score and all tongue carcinomas (100%) in high score malignant grade (p<0.01). Collagen type IV expression was absent in the peritumoral basement membrane in 50% of lower lip carcinomas and in 66.7% of tongue carcinomas (p=0.09). Laminin expression was absent in the peritumoral basement membrane in 66.7% of lower lip carcinomas and in 58.3% of tongue carcinomas (p=0.48). When these two glicoproteins were expressed, they showed a linear, thin and discontinuous pattern and a weak intensity of expression. Conclusion: The high score malignancy grade of the tongue carcinomas associated with the expression pattern of the studied matrix proteins. It suggests that tongue squamous cell carcinomas have more invasive potential and more aggressive biological behavior than the lower lip carcinomas.

Topochemical kinetic mechanism of cellulase hydrolysis on fast-growing tree species. COST Action FP1105
Authors: Valchev Ivo , Yavorov Nikolay , Petrin Stoyko 
Published: July 2016

Abstract
Optimization of the lignocellulosic bioconversion by cellulolytic enzymes requires good knowledge of reaction kinetics. In the present paper, the investigations of the kinetics have been performed on the fast-growing tree species of poplar, paulownia, willow and black locust, which were pretreated by steam explosion (SE), and bleached kraft pulp (BKP) made of a hardwood mixture. The applicability of different kinetic equations referring to diffusion, topochemical and other heterogeneous catalytic processes was examined, and it was found that the enzyme process is best described by the modified Prout-Tompkins topochemical equation. According to that kinetic model, the hydrolysis rate depends on the amount of the substrate left and the inhibition of the enzyme by the product formed and, moreover, on the combination of chemical interaction and diffusion processes. There is a compensation effect between activation energy and pre-exponential factor and there are correlations between rate constant, power factor, and wood density. The mechanisms of cellulase hydrolysis of BKP- and SE-treated fast-growing tree species are very similar. The results shows that the structural features of the lignocellulosic material are the controlling factor on the type of the kinetic mechanism. The obtained temperature-time dependence of degree of enzyme hydrolysis is useful for simulation and control of the process.
Hydrodeoxygenation of Phenol Over Sulfided CoMo Catalysts Supported on a Mixed Al2O3-TiO2 Oxide
Authors: Tavizón-Pozos J. A. , Suárez-Toriello V. A. , del Ángel P. , de los Reyes J. A. 
Published: July 2016

Abstract
In this work, the effect of the mixed Al2O3-TiO2 oxide (Al/Ti=2, named AT2) support on the support-metal interaction in oxide state, its influence on MoS2 dispersion and its impact on the hydrodeoxygenation of phenol reaction was studied. In contrast with CoMo/Al2O3 catalysts, the use of Al2O3-TiO2 as support tuned favorably the support-metal interaction, increasing the availability of easily reducible CoOX and MoOX species with octahedral coordination, which are recognized as precursors of the active phase. The lower support-metal interaction strength caused a decrease in the dispersion of MoS2 phase. Even so, the sulfided CoMo/AT2 catalyst reached 85 % higher catalytic activity in the hydrodeoxygenation of phenol than CoMo/Al2O3. These increases were explained in terms of the formation of a higher amount of active CoMoS phase, and it is consistent with the increased availability of cobalt promoter for the decoration of MoS2 edges. CoMo/AT2 catalyst was more resistant to inhibition by CS2 than CoMo/Al2O3 in direct deoxygenation route and hydrodeoxygenation of phenol.
Sensitivity of personal data items in different online contexts
Authors: Ortlieb Martin , Garner Ryan 
Published: July 2016

Abstract
We present the results of a survey study (n = 1,200) investigating online users' privacy sensitivity towards exposing
specific data items to service providers of the three most prominent online services in the UK: online retail, social
networking and information search. The study, representative of the online population of the UK, presents proof for the
context-dependence of privacy sensitivity and provides concrete quantitative results for specific data items (like full
name or mobile phone number). One of the key results is that data that is considered essential in order for a service to
work is seldomly rated as sensitive. We could also show that passively collected data is in general more sensitive than
concrete data provided by the users. However, specific conditions like control and transparency can have positive/negative
effects on the sensitivity of data in a specific context.

Holistic logical arguments in quantum computation
Authors: Chiara Maria Luisa Dalla , Giuntini Roberto , Leporini Roberto , Sergioli Giuseppe 
Published: July 2016

Abstract
Quantum computational logics represent a logical abstraction from the circuit-theory in quantum computation. In these logics formulas are supposed to denote pieces of quantum information (qubits, quregisters or mixtures of quregisters), while logical connectives correspond to (quantum logical) gates that transform quantum information in a reversible way. The characteristic holistic features of the quantum theoretic formalism (which play an essential role in entanglement-phenomena) can be used in order to develop a holistic version of the quantum computational semantics. In contrast with the compositional character of most standard semantic approaches, meanings of formulas are here dealt with as global abstract objects that determine the contextual meanings of the formulas’ components (from the whole to the parts). We present a survey of the most significant logical arguments that are valid or that are possibly violated in the framework of this semantics. Some logical features that may appear prima facie strange seem to reflect pretty well informal arguments that are currently used in our rational activity.
On realization of effect algebras
Authors: Niederle Josef , Paseka Jan 
Published: July 2016

Abstract
A well known fact is that there is a finite orthomodular lattice with an order determining set of states which is not order embeddable into the standard quantum logic, the lattice L(𝓗) of all closed subspaces of a separable complex Hilbert space.
We show that a finite generalized effect algebra is order embeddable into the standard effect algebra E(𝓗) of effects of a separable complex Hilbert space iff it has an order determining set of generalized states iff it is order embeddable into the power of a finite MV-chain.
As an application we obtain an algorithm, which is based on the simplex algorithm, deciding whether such an order embedding exists and, if the answer is positive, constructing it.

Note on a parameter switching method for nonlinear ODEs
Authors: Danca Marius-F. , Fečkan Michal 
Published: July 2016

Abstract
In this paper we study analytically a parameter switching (PS) algorithm applied to a class of systems of ODE, depending on a single real parameter. The algorithm allows the numerical approximation of any solution of the underlying system by simple periodical switches of the control parameter. Near a general approach of the convergence of the PS algorithm, some dissipative properties are investigated and the dynamical behavior of solutions is investigated with the Lyapunov function method. A numerical example is presented.
Commutativity in a synaptic algebra
Authors: Foulis David J. , Pulmannová Sylvia 
Published: July 2016

Abstract
A synaptic algebra is a generalization of the self-adjoint part of a von Neumann algebra. For a synaptic algebra we study two weakened versions of commutativity, namely quasi-commutativity and operator commutativity, and we give natural conditions on the synaptic algebra so that each of these conditions is equivalent to commutativity. We also investigate the structure of a commutative synaptic algebra, prove that a synaptic algebra is commutative if and only if it is a vector lattice, and provide a functional representation for a commutative synaptic algebra.
Nonlinear plasmonic imaging techniques and their biological applications
Authors: Deka Gitanjal , Sun Chi-Kuang , Fujita Katsumasa , Chu Shi-Wei 
Published: July 2016

Abstract
Nonlinear optics, when combined with microscopy, is known to provide advantages including novel contrast, deep tissue observation, and minimal invasiveness. In addition, special nonlinearities, such as switch on/off and saturation, can enhance the spatial resolution below the diffraction limit, revolutionizing the field of optical microscopy. These nonlinear imaging techniques are extremely useful for biological studies on various scales from molecules to cells to tissues. Nevertheless, in most cases, nonlinear optical interaction requires strong illumination, typically at least gigawatts per square centimeter intensity. Such strong illumination can cause significant phototoxicity or even photodamage to fragile biological samples. Therefore, it is highly desirable to find mechanisms that allow the reduction of illumination intensity. Surface plasmon, which is the collective oscillation of electrons in metal under light excitation, is capable of significantly enhancing the local field around the metal nanostructures and thus boosting up the efficiency of nonlinear optical interactions of the surrounding materials or of the metal itself. In this mini-review, we discuss the recent progress of plasmonics in nonlinear optical microscopy with a special focus on biological applications. The advancement of nonlinear imaging modalities (including incoherent/coherent Raman scattering, two/three-photon luminescence, and second/third harmonic generations that have been amalgamated with plasmonics), as well as the novel subdiffraction limit imaging techniques based on nonlinear behaviors of plasmonic scattering, is addressed.
Sensitivity of ‘Monika’ Cucumis sativus seedlings to low temperature and induction of chilling tolerance
Authors: Górnik Krzysztof 
Published: July 2016

AbstractThe aim of the research was to investigate the chilling sensitivity of cucumber seedlings and to alleviate its negative effects by short-term shock temperature applied during seeds imbibition, before radicle protrusion. The chilling sensitivity was investigated depending on initial root length (1, 3, 5 and 7 mm) and duration of chilling exposure (0, 1, 3, 7, 14, 21 days) at 0°C and was evaluated by measurements of roots and hypocotyls growth, electrolyte leakage and dehydrogenases activity. To assess whether short-term shock temperature applied before radicle protrusion can increase chilling tolerance in cucumber seedlings the seeds were imbibed at 25°C for 16 h, exposed to temperatures of 0; 2,5; 5; 35; 40, 45°C for 0; 0,5; 1; 2; 4 h.The obtained results indicated that cucumber seedlings sensitivity depended on duration of chilling expo-sure and initial root length during which the seedlings were subjected to these conditions. Chilling sensitivity were manifested by drop in the roots and hypocotyls elongation, reduction in dehydrogenases activity and membrane integrity expressed by electrolyte leakage. Seedlings with 1 mm roots was relatively tolerant to 3 days of chilling at 0°C. Their chilling sensitivity increased as roots elongated. Seedling with 3, 5, 7 mm of roots subjected to chilling suffered a subsequent 71, 75 and 81% of growth inhibition, respectively.The presented results showed that a short-term of low (0; 2,5 or 5°C) or high (35; 40 or 45°C) temperature treatments applied before radicle protrusion i.e. after 16 h of seeds imbibition significantly counteracted the negative effects of chilling on seedlings. The best results expressed by increased length and the number of roots were obtained when imbibed seeds were exposed to 45°C for 2 and 4 h. The increased chilling tolerance of cucumber seedlings induced as early as at the stage of seed imbibition, before radicle protrusion indicates on the possibility of application of this method in practice. The positive response of such treatment on cucumber chilling tolerance are discussed.

Authors: Adeboye K. A. , Adabale O. W. , Adetumbi J. A. , Ayo-Vaughan M. A. , Daniel I. O. 
Published: July 2016

Abstract
Two experiments were conducted to evaluate ageing-induced genetic changes and to establish physiological thresholds for loss of genetic integrity during ageing or storage of rice seeds. In the first experiment, seeds of 10 varieties of rice were subjected to artificial ageing in chambers conditioned to 55°C and 72±2% RH for 72 hours. In the second experiment, seeds of 4 varieties of rice stored in the NACGRAB gene bank, Nigeria in 2011 at 5± 4°C were compared with seeds of the same accessions freshly harvested in 2013. Data were collected on seed germination and seedling length to estimate the seed vigour index. Genetic changes during the ageing were evaluated by SSR markers using a Direct™ PCR kit. Genetic distance indices were computed using PAST™ software and percentage genetic integrity was estimated from the genetic distance matrices. At 72 hours of artificial ageing, seed germination percentage declined to 54.2% and vigour index 0.8 coinciding with the lowest estimate of genetic integrity of 99.5%. The decline in percentage genetic integrity during the artificial ageing indicated a systematic ageing-induced genetic alteration. SSR primer RM178 revealed variations that suggest losses of alleles in the course of ageing for 2 accessions at between 24 hours in WITA4 and 48 to 51 hours in CG14. In the gene bank storage trial, germination of seeds after one and two years of storage was above 80% and there were no significant differences among the accessions. SSR profiles for all the accessions were also similar. The result partly corroborates the artificial ageing data. This implies that seed viability benchmark of 54% is recommended for regeneration of stored rice seeds in order to maintain optimum genetic integrity during storage.

Published: July 2016

AbstractThe aim of this study is investigation the applicability of SSR and ISSR markers in evaluating the genetic relationships in twenty accessions ofAegilopsandTriticumspecies with D genome in different ploidy levels. Totally, 119 bands and 46 alleles were detected using ten primers for ISSR and SSR markers, respectively. Polymorphism Information Content values for all primers ranged from 0.345 to 0.375 with an average of 0.367 for SSR, and varied from 0.29 to 0.44 with the average 0.37 for ISSR marker. Analysis of molecular variance (AMOVA) revealed that 81% (ISSR) and 84% (SSR) of variability was partitioned among individuals within populations. Comparing the genetic diversity ofAegilopsandTriticumaccessions, based on genetic parameters, shows that genetic variation ofAe. crassaandAe. tauschiispecies are higher than other species, especially in terms of Nei’s gene diversity. Cluster analysis, based on both markers, separated total accessions in three groups. However, classification based on SSR marker data was not conformed to classification according to ISSR marker data. Principal co-ordinate analysis (PCoA) for SSR and ISSR data showed that, the first two components clarified 53.48% and 49.91% of the total variation, respectively. This analysis (PCoA), also, indicated consistent patterns of genetic relationships for ISSR data sets, however, the grouping of accessions was not completely accorded to their own geographical origins. Consequently, a high level of genetic diversity was revealed from the accessions sampled from different eco-geographical regions of Iran.

Published: July 2016

Abstract
The use of efficient refrigerator/freezers helps considerably to reduce the amount of the emitted greenhouse gas. A two-circuit refrigerator-freezer cycle (RF) reveals a higher energy saving potential than a conventional cycle with a single loop of serial evaporators, owing to pressure drop in each evaporator during refrigeration operation and low compression ratio. Therefore, several industrial applications and fish storage systems have been utilized by using multipurpose refrigeration cycle. That is why a theoretical performance analysis based on the exergetic performance coefficient, coefficient of performance (COP), exergy efficiency and exergy destruction ratio criteria, has been carried out for a multipurpose refrigeration system by using different refrigerants in serial and parallel operation conditions. The exergetic performance coefficient criterion is defined as the ratio of exergy output to the total exergy destruction rate (or loss rate of availability). According to the results of the study, the refrigerant R32 shows the best performance in terms of exergetic performance coefficient, COP, exergy efficiency, and exergy destruction ratio from among the other refrigerants (R1234yf, R1234ze, R404A, R407C, R410A, R143A and R502). The effects of the condenser, freezer-evaporator and refrigerator-evaporator temperatures on the exergetic performance coefficient, COP, exergy efficiency and exergy destruction ratios have been fully analyzed for the refrigerant R32.
