New relationship to describe the rheology of sunflower oil
Authors: Stanciu Ioana 
Published: September 2014

Abstract
This paper proposes two new relations of dependence of log dynamic viscosity depending on log absolute temperature shear rates between 3.3 and 120s-1. The constants A, B, and C were determined by Origin 6.0 software by fitting linear or polynomial curves obtained from experimental data. The two proposed relationships give correlation coefficients close to one.
Effects of Low Ozone Concentrations and Short Exposure Times on the Mortality of Immature Stages of the Indian Meal Moth, Plodia Interpunctella (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae)

Abstract
In Iran, the Indian meal moth, Plodia interpunctella (Hübner), is one of the most important pests of such stored products as date fruits and pistachio nuts. Ozone was applied as a gas at four concentrations (0, 2, 3, and 5 ppm) for four different periods (30, 60, 90, and 120 min) on the immature stages of P. interpunctella. The results indicated that by increasing the concentration and exposure time, the rate of mortality increased for all tested stages. This study showed that 12-day-old larvae were more susceptible than other stages when exposed to 5 ppm ozone for 120 min. The next in order of susceptibility were pupae, then 5-day-old larvae, and 17-dayold larvae had the highest sensitivity to ozonation. At the highest concentration of ozone, for the longest time, the least mortality rate was recorded for one-day-old eggs. According to the results, a reduction in the population density of P. interpunctella in laboratory experiments is promising. However, validation studies will be necessary to fully determine the potential of ozone as a replacement for the current post harvest chemical control of P. interpunctella on either pistachio nuts or date fruits.
Artery of Percheron infarction: review of literature with a case report
Authors: Lamot Urska , Ribaric Ivana , Popovic Katarina Surlan 
Published: September 2014

Abstract
Background. Clinical features indicating an ischemic infarction in the territory of posterior cerebral circulation require a comprehensive radiologic examination, which is best achieved by a multi-modality imaging approach (computed tomography [CT], CT-perfusion, computed tomography angiography [CTA], magnetic resonance imaging [MRI] and diffusion weighted imaging [DWI]). The diagnosis of an acute ischemic infarction, where the damage of brain tissue may still be reversible, enables selection of appropriate treatment and contributes to a more favourable outcome. For these reasons it is essential to recognize common neurovascular variants in the territory of the posterior cerebral circulation, one of which is the artery of Percheron.
Case report. A 69 year-old woman, last seen awake 10 hours earlier, presented with two typical clinical features of the artery of Percheron infarction, which were vertical gaze palsy and coma. Brain CT and CTA of neck and intracranial arteries upon arrival were interpreted as normal. A new brain CT scan performed 24 hours later revealed hypodensity in the medial parts of thalami. Other imaging modalities were not performed, due to the presumption that the window for the application of effective therapy was over. The diagnosis of an artery of Percheron infarction was therefore made retrospectively with the re-examination of the CTA of neck and intracranial arteries.
Conclusions. A multi-modality imaging approach is necessary in every patient with suspicion of the posterior circulation infarction immediately after the onset of symptoms, especially in cases where primary imaging modalities are unremarkable and clinical features are severe, where follow-up examinations are indicated.
Le piège territorial
Authors: Agnew John , Dufoix Stéphane 
Published: September 2014

Résumé Quand bien même le pouvoir politique serait territorial, la territorialité n’implique pas nécessairement les pratiques d’exclusion mutuelle totale que lui attribuent les conceptions dominantes de l’État moderne. Cependant, dans les théories des relations internationales, lorsqu’il est question de la territorialité d’un État, la discussion est presque toujours menée dans les termes de la persistance ou de l’obsolescence d’un État territorial compris comme une entité inchangée et non dépendante des circonstances historico-géographiques variées. Cette approche est remise en question par les évènements contemporains. La fin de la Guerre froide, la vélocité et la volatilité croissantes de l’économie mondiale et l’émergence de mouvements politiques hors du cadre des États territoriaux, suggèrent qu’il faut comprendre la territorialité des États dans un contexte historique. Les trois présupposés géographiques sur lesquels s’appuie la pensée orthodoxe (les États comme des unités fixes d’espace souverain, la polarité intérieur/étranger et les États comme des « conteneurs » des sociétés) aboutissent à un « piège territorial ».
Au-delà du nationalisme méthodologique : l'interculturel sans essentialisme
Authors: Dervin Fred 
Published: September 2014

Résumé Cet article programmatique vise à proposer une nouvelle définition de l’interculturel capable de résister aux sirènes du nationalisme méthodologique. L’interculturel est une notion polysémique qui pose de plus en plus de problèmes pour décrire notre postmodernité. C’est notamment pour son association quasi systématique avec le nationalisme méthodologique (« culture nationale ») que la notion est critiquée. Dans cet article, nous proposons de questionner l’interculturel mais aussi d’examiner et de problématiser les nouvelles formes de « -ismes » qui sont apparus ces dernières années pour remplacer le nationalisme méthodologique. L’article propose quelques arguments pour sortir de l’impasse.
Analyse compréhensive de l'activité de navigation d'orienteurs débutants en fonction des caractéristiques de deux tâches de course d'orientation
Authors: Mottet Martin , Saury Jacques 
Published: September 2014

Cette étude visait à comparer et comprendre l’activité de navigation d’orienteurs impliqués dans deux tâches d’apprentissage en course d’orientation afin de proposer des dispositifs d’aide à l’enseignement de l’activité. Cette étude a été conduite en référence au programme de recherche du « cours d’action » (Theureau, 2006). Huit étudiants débutants se sont portés volontaires pour participer à l’étude. Deux types de données ont été recueillis : (a) des enregistrements audiovisuels obtenus grâce à des « lunettes-caméra » équipant chaque participant, (b) des données de verbalisation obtenues lors d’entretiens d’autoconfrontation. Le traitement qualitatif des données a consisté à reconstruire les cours d’expérience des participants conformément à la méthode d’analyse sémiologique issue du cours d’action. Une analyse complémentaire statistique a permis de relever des occurrences en matière de lecture de carte entre les deux tâches. Les résultats pointent des formes d’activité de navigation similaires et différentes entre les deux tâches, en relation avec des phases particulières des parcours, la difficulté et la contrainte temporelle, accordant plus ou moins d’importance à la carte et au terrain d’un côté, et à la balise de l’autre. Ces formes différentes sont discutées en relation avec les contraintes significatives de l’environnement pour les orienteurs et leur utilisation d’heuristiques. Des propositions sont présentées afin d’améliorer l’enseignement et l’apprentissage en course d’orientation.
Modèles ajustés et acquisition d'une acrobatie en gymnastique sportive : efficacité comparée de l'Imitation Modélisation Interactive et du Coping Modèle
Authors: Martin Liza , Lafont Lucile 
Published: September 2014

Cette étude examine l’efficacité, auprès de débutantes, de deux procédures ajustées de modélisation, à savoir l’imitation modélisation interactive (IMI) d’une part, et les « coping modèles » (CM) d’autre part, pour l’apprentissage d’une habileté gymnique. La première fait intervenir un sujet expert ajustant son intervention aux besoins immédiats du tutoré, la seconde met en jeu un modèle dont la performance dans la tâche et les états affectifs l’accompagnant, initialement faibles, s’améliorent au fil des essais. Le cadre théorique support est celui de la psychologie sociale du développement et des acquisitions. Trente-six participantes, élèves filles de sixième, ont été affectées au hasard, par groupes de douze à trois conditions d’apprentissage pour l’acquisition de l’Appui Tendu Renversé (ATR) sur la poutre : un groupe a travaillé avec un modèle IMI, un autre avec un CM et le dernier avec un modèle classique non ajusté dit « modèle de maîtrise » (MM). Les effets ont été mesurés sur deux variables, soit le niveau d’habileté pour l’ATR et le sentiment d’efficacité personnelle. Notre démarche empirique interroge la pertinence des formes interactionnelles d’apprentissage et de tutelle réalisées par les pairs, auprès de jeunes élèves. Les résultats mettent en évidence la supériorité des deux guidages ajustés par rapport à la modélisation classique, tant sur l’amélioration motrice que sur le renforcement du sentiment d’efficacité personnelle (SEP). Les données recueillies à l’issue de cette expérimentation révèlent la pertinence des « coping modèles » pour une tâche gymnique. Ces derniers semblent particulièrement efficaces dans le cas d’une tâche acrobatique nouvelle potentiellement anxiogène.
Les cadres sexués du travail émotionnel dans la relation thérapeutique en physiothérapie
Authors: Martin Hélène , Perrin Céline , Damidot Pascale 
Published: September 2014

Cet article se base sur une recherche menée par entretiens qui a étudié, dans une perspective de genre, des expériences professionnelles dans lesquelles une(e) physiothérapeute juge que la sexualité menace ou perturbe le cadre thérapeutique, et les stratégies adoptées en conséquence pour préserver ou rétablir ce cadre. Pour analyser ces situations, les auteures mobilisent et revisitent l’approche des défaillances ordinaires (ambiguïté et erreur de cadrage) de Goffman (1991). Elles montrent que les défaillances de cadre étudiées sont sexuées : les attentes et les appréciations face aux risques encourus par les physiothérapeutes, de même que leurs conséquences en termes de stratégies d’évitement sont différenciées en fonction de leur appartenance sociale de sexe.
Shakespeare’s Plants and Gardens

Published: September 2014

Shakespeare lived when knowledge of plants and their uses was a given, but also at a time of unique interest in plants and gardens.His lifetime saw the beginning of scientific interest in plants, the first large-scale plant introductions from outside the country since Roman times, and the beginning of gardening as a leisure activity. Shakespeare's works show that he engaged with this new world to illuminate so many facets of his plays and poems.
This dictionary offers a complete companion to Shakespeare's references to landscape, plants and gardens, including both formal and rural settings.It covers plants and flowers, gardening terms, and the activities that Shakespeare included within both cultivated and uncultivated landscapes as well as encompassing garden imagery in relation to politics, the state and personal lives. Each alphabetical entry offers an definition and overview of the term discussed in its historical context, followed by a guided tour of its use in Shakespeare's works and finally an extensive bibliography, including primary and secondary sources, books and articles.

In HIV-1 infection, a population of latently infected cells facilitates viral persistence despite antiretroviral therapy (ART). With the aim of identifying individuals in whom ART might induce a period of viraemic control on stopping therapy, we hypothesised that quantification of the pool of latently infected cells in primary HIV-1 infection (PHI) would predict clinical progression and viral replication following ART. We measured HIV-1 DNA in a highly characterised randomised population of individuals with PHI. We explored associations between HIV-1 DNA and immunological and virological markers of clinical progression, including viral rebound in those interrupting therapy. In multivariable analyses, HIV-1 DNA was more predictive of disease progression than plasma viral load and, at treatment interruption, predicted time to plasma virus rebound. HIV-1 DNA may help identify individuals who could safely interrupt ART in future HIV-1 eradication trials.Clinical trial registration: ISRCTN76742797 and EudraCT2004-000446-20
A Cancer‐Targeted Nanosystem for Delivery of Gold(III) Complexes: Enhanced Selectivity and Apoptosis‐Inducing Efficacy of a Gold(III) Porphyrin Complex

Published: September 2014

AbstractConstruction of delivery systems for anticancer gold complexes to decrease their toxicity while maintaining efficacy is a key strategy to optimize and develop anticancer gold medicines. Herein, we describe cancer‐targeted mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSN) for delivery of a gold(III) porphyrin complex (Au‐1 a@MSN(R)) to enhance its anticancer efficacy and selectivity between cancer and normal cells. Encapsulation of Au‐1 a within mesoporous silica nanoparticles amplifies its inhibitory effects on thioredoxin reductase (TrxR), resulting in a loss of redox balance and overproduction of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Elevated cellular oxidative stress activates diversified downstream ROS‐mediated signaling pathways, leading to enhanced apoptosis‐inducing efficacy.
Self‐Repairable Polyurethane Networks by Atmospheric Carbon Dioxide and Water
Authors: Yang Ying , Urban Marek W. 
Published: September 2014

AbstractSugar moieties were incorporated into cross‐linked polyurethane (PUR) networks in an effort to achieve self‐repairing in the presence of atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O). When methyl‐α‐D‐glucopyranoside (MGP) molecules are reacted with hexamethylene diisocyanate trimer (HDI) and polyethylene glycol (PEG) to form cross‐linked MGP‐polyurethane (PUR) networks, these materials are capable of self‐repairing in air. This process requires atmospheric amounts of CO2 and H2O, thus resembling plant behavior of carbon fixation during the photosynthesis cycle. Molecular processes responsible for this unique self‐repair process involve physical diffusion of cleaved network segments as well as the formation of carbonate and urethane linkages. Unlike plants, MGP‐PUR networks require no photo‐initiated reactions, and they are thus capable of repair in darkness under atmospheric conditions.
Whole Courses of the Oculomotor, Trochlear, and Abducens Nerves, Identified in Sectioned Images and Surface Models
Authors: Park Hyo Seok , Chung Min Suk , Shin Dong Sun , Jung Yong Wook , Park Jin Seo 
Published: September 2014

ABSTRACTIn medicine, the neuroanatomy of the oculomotor (III), trochlear (IV), and abducens nerves (VI) is learned essentially by cadaver dissection, histological specimens, and MRI. However, these methods have many limitations and it is necessary to compensate for the insufficiencies of previous methods. The aim of this research was to present sectioned images and surface models that allow the whole courses of III, IV, and VI and circumjacent structures to be observed in detail. To achieve this, the structures of whole courses of III, IV, and VI were traced on the sectioned images, and surface models of the structures were reconstructed. As a result, nucleus of III, Edinger‐Westphal nucleus, nucleus of IV, and nucleus of VI and their fibers were identified on brainstem in the sectioned images. In the sectioned images, III, IV, and VI passed both sides of the cavernous sinus and entered at the orbit through the superior orbital fissure. In the sectioned images, III, IV, and VI innervated extraocular muscles in orbit. In surface models, the whole courses of III, IV, and VI and circumjacent structures could be explored freely three‐dimensionally. The greatest advantage of the sectioned images was that they allowed the whole courses of III, IV, and VI and circumjacent structures to be observed as real colored in an unbroken line. In addition, the surface models allowed the stereoscopic shapes and positions of III, IV, and VI to be comprehended. The sectioned images and surface models could be applied for medical education purposes or training tools.

Robust‐Adaptive Control Strategies for a Time Delay Bioelectrochemical Process Using Interval Observers
Authors: Petre Emil , Tebbani Sihem , Selişteanu Dan 
Published: September 2014

AbstractThe paper addresses the design and the analysis of adaptive and robust‐adaptive control strategies for a complex recycled wastewater treatment bioprocess. The design procedures are developed under the realistic assumptions that the bacterial growth rates are unknown and the influent flow rates are time‐varying and uncertain, but some lower and upper bounds of these uncertainties are known. The proposed control structures are achieved by combining a linearizing control law with an appropriately (asymptotic or interval based) state observer and with a parameter estimator used for on‐line estimation of unknown kinetics. These approaches are applied to a complex time delay bioprocess resulting from the association of a recycling bioreactor with an electrochemical reactor. Numerical simulations are performed in order to validate the proposed algorithms.
A novel fixed fibre biofilm membrane process for on‐site greywater reclamation requiring no fouling control
Authors: Jabornig Simon , Podmirseg Sabine Marie 
Published: September 2014

ABSTRACTOn‐site greywater treatment and reuse in urban areas bears the potential to reduce huge quantities of wastewater and lower freshwater shortages. Until now dissemination of small, single household applications has been rather limited as simple and high quality water producing, but also cost‐effective treatment units have not been developed so far. This paper proposes a new process, based on a concurrently working hollow‐fibre membrane as fixed biofilm support and filtration device. Bioreactor characteristics, influence of different aeration rates, membrane flux development, as well as structure and composition of biofilm were monitored to evaluate the performance of the tested pilot unit. The introduced process achieved international water reuse guidelines, worked soundly and could, compared to conventional micro MBR, significantly reduce energy demand (<1.4 kWh m−3). Fouling control by air scouring and chemical cleaning was not required once flux had stabilized. The biofilm analysis showed a porous, spongy‐like structure. Microbiological investigation revealed a community of sheathed bacteria and nematodes that could play an important role in the flux stabilisation effect. In general, the study confirmed the suitability of the presented process for greywater treatment and provides valuable design data for future optimization and systematic analysis. Biotechnol.

Published: September 2014

AbstractTreatment of Na[Re(CO)5] with RCCCO2Et (R=phenyl, naphthalen‐1‐yl, phenanthren‐9‐yl and pyren‐1‐yl) followed by reaction with acetyl chloride and ethanol afforded the rhenacyclobutadienes Re{‐C(R)C(CO2Et)C(OEt)}(CO)4. Reactions of these rhenacyclobutadienes with HCCOEt produced rhenabenzenes Re{‐C(R)C(CO2Et)C(OEt)CHC(OEt)}(CO)4. Except for R=Ph, new rhenacyclobutadienes with pendant alkenyl substituents Re{‐C(R)C(C(OEt)CH(CO2Et))C(OEt)}(CO)4 were also isolated from these reactions. The NMR spectroscopic and X‐ray structural data, as well as the aromatic stabilization energy (ASE) values suggest that the rhenabenzenes are aromatic, with extensive delocalized π character.
Solvochemical Synthesis and Crystal Structure of the Fluoride‐Derivatized Early Lanthanoid(III) ortho‐Oxidomolybdates(VI) LnF[MoO4] (Ln = Ce–Nd)
Authors: Schustereit Tanja , Schleid Thomas , Hartenbach Ingo 
Published: September 2014

AbstractThe development of a new solvochemical synthesis route resulted in single crystals of lanthanoid(III) fluoride oxidomolybdates(VI) with the formula LnF[MoO4] for the early lanthanoids (Ln = Ce–Nd); to date, these compounds could not be obtained by solid‐state reactions. The preparation strategy comprises the dropwise combination of an alkaline aqueous solution containing molybdenum trioxide, sodium hydroxide and sodium fluoride with an acidic aqueous solution of the lanthanoid(III) nitrate. After the purification of the obtained gel, the noncrystalline product has to be dried at 120 °C and converted into a crystalline phase by a final thermal treatment for 24 h at 850 °C in evacuated silica ampoules. The crystal structure of the lanthanoid(III) fluoride oxidomolybdates(VI) with formula LnF[MoO4] (Ln = Ce–Nd) is not isotypic to those for the smaller rare‐earth metals. The title compounds crystallize monoclinically in the space group P21/n (a = 703–694, b = 660–653, c = 939–933 pm and β ≈ 106°) with four formula units per unit cell. The structure contains crystallographically unique Ln3+ cations, which are surrounded by two F– and six O2– anions to form distorted bicapped trigonal prisms (CN = 8). These polyhedra are fused together by two common edges (e) consisting of two oxide anions to form ∞1{[LnFOe4/2Ot2/1]6–} strands, which are finally condensed through shared fluoride vertices (v) to build up a three‐dimensional ∞3{[LnFv2/2Oe4/2Ot2/1]6–} network that still contains terminal (t) oxygen atoms. The Mo6+ cations reside in the tetrahedral voids of the aforementioned arrangement. This is the fundamental difference compared to the structures of the representatives with the smaller lanthanoids, in which the Mo6+ cations interconnect anionic ∞2{[LnFe2/2Oe4/2Ot2/1]6–} layers to achieve their tetrahedral oxygen coordination spheres. Vibrational spectroscopic measurements such as bulk solid‐state and single‐crystal Raman spectroscopy as well as diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS) were performed for the crystalline lanthanoid(III) fluoride oxidomolybdates(VI) and the noncrystalline samples of the dried raw products.
