description: A new chiral capillary electrophoresis (CE) analytical method for the determination of 6 pairs of amino acid enantiomers derivatized pre-capillary with 9-fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl chloride (FMOC) was developed. CE separation parameters such as the pH of background electrolyte (BGE), the boric acid concentration, the addition of D-fructose and isopropanol (IPA), and the effect of new binary chiral selectors on the electrophograms were investigated. Pre-capillary and in-capillary derivatization was compared as well. The results showed that enantiomeric separations were obtained with enanatio-resolution (Rs) ranged from 2.61 to 9.99 for the FMOC derivatized amino acid enantiomers except alanine (Ala) with Rs 1.06. Pre-capillary derivatization method provide overall better Rs for nearly all the targets except FMOC-aspartate with efficiencies up to 1.309*106 plates and LOD down to 2.5 μM. This method was successfully applied to analyze the concentration of the D/L-Glu and D/L-Asp in 7 rice wine samples.

description: A simple, rapid, and convenient method based on ion association for the determination of acetazolamide has been developed. Acetazolamide can react with palladium(II) to form cationic chelate at sodium acetate–acetic acid buffer solution, which can further react with eosin Y to form an ion association complex. As a result, the resonance Rayleigh scattering, second-order scattering, and frequency doubling scattering intensities are enhanced. Analytical wavelengths of resonance Rayleigh scattering, second-order scattering, and frequency doubling scattering located at 298, 558, and 338 nm, and the linearity range are 0.014–2.5, 0.034–2.5, and 0.119–2.4 µg mL−1 respectively. In addition, the optimum conditions and the effect of coexisting substances are investigated. Besides, the structure of ion association complex, the reaction mechanism and the reasons for the enhancement of scattering are discussed through infrared spectra, absorption spectra, and quantum chemical calculations.

description: Some human mature microRNAs are featured of G≥2NxG≥2NyG≥2NzG≥2 sequences. In this study, a human mature microRNA, miR-5196-5p, was selected as an example to probe the secondary structure of G-rich microRNA. Our results have confirmed that miR-5196-5p could form a stable G-quadruplex structure with three G-quartets and three double-chain-reversal loops by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry, nuclear magnetic resonance, circular dichroism spectroscopy, and molecular dynamics simulation. Our study showed the prevalence of G-rich microRNAs in Homo sapiens, rat, mouse, and Arabidopsis thaliana, and they have great potential to fold into intramolecular G-quadruplexes which may serve as new targets for the regulatory function of G-rich mature microRNAs.
title: Memorialising Absence: visual representations of the disappeared within family structures in post-dictatorship Argentina
Creators: name: Coldwell, Chloe Alice
Publisher: name: University of Glasgow
Year: 2021

description: This thesis examines the ways in which the victims of forced disappearance have been represented in visual media by their family members, as well as the generational social justice movements which formed in response to the most recent Argentine dictatorship (1976-1983). Since the formation of the Madres de Plaza de Mayo group, other relatives of the disappeared have come together to protest the state violence which occurred during this period, and visual media have been key elements of their work. This study therefore discusses a range of these visual works, including the photography and art used by the mothers during their protest, the photographic essays by Marcelo Brodsky, the photographic projects of Lucila Quieto, and the documentaries created by Nicolás Prividera. As its core objectives, this study aims to give a multi-generational view of the impact of the disappearances on the idea of family, working down the family structure and ending with a contemporary update on the issues faced by each generation. Furthermore, it seeks to address notions of complex mourning and remembering, investigating how visual media have been used by the relatives to express their experiences. The multi-generational approach has afforded this study the ability to observe common concepts between the groups with regard to remembering the disappeared, as well as the opportunity to explore how kinship bonds have continued to be altered by the disappearances. In summary, this thesis asks, how have the relatives of the disappeared continued to address absence and in what ways have visual media assisted them in their process of remembering? The results of this study show that the reimagining, queering, and politicising of kinship roles in response to state violence have continued to influence the ways in which new generations interact with the disappeared, with analysis of Quieto’s and Prividera’s works demonstrating their ongoing interpretation of the societal expectations of them as hijos/as. Furthermore, this thesis highlights the common themes and motivations occurring throughout the visual media used and created by each generation, such as the blending of private and public realms; attempts to use visual media to individualise the disappeared and dispel the military idea of a faceless, subversive enemy; as well as a desire to keep the disappeared visually present in society, so as to heighten public awareness and prolong their memory into the future.
title: An empirical essay in Forex market
Creators: name: Li, Dangyang
Publisher: name: University of Glasgow
Year: 2021

description: The Forex market is the largest financial market globally, with daily trading volumes of about 6.6 trillion U.S. dollars per day in April 2019 (Bank for International Settlements, (BIS) 2019). The forex market always attracts the view of many researchers. This doctoral thesis particularly pays attention to some popular forex market questions. The first chapter provides a comprehensive review of recent developments of forex market researches. The first section of the chapter briefly introduces the currenciesspecific pricing factors and the forex market portfolio management. The second part gives an introduction to the risk forecasting model in the financial market. Finally, I will illustrate the concept of the forward premium puzzle and interest rate parity in the last part and review the literature on the forward premium puzzle. In the second chapter, I focus on the prevalent forex factors’ tail dependence. Lustiget al. (2011) have introduced some forex factors, the ’dollar risk factor’ (DOL) and the ’carry trade factor’ (HML), and shown that they can price carry trade portfolios in the cross-section. This new result is helpful in the academic literature on cross-sectional asset pricing, risk management, and portfolio optimization. Those factors are also widely used in the industry. This thesis tests the relevance of four popular currency specific factors contributing to a diversified forex portfolio and risk management. I show that modeling non-linear dependency across the factors is essential and adds value to a forex portfolio. Then, I concentrate on the risk forecasting of the forex factor portfolios, which I discussed in the previous chapter. Risk forecasting is a popular research question in the financial market. Value at Risk (VaR) is the standard measure of risk, which is the common risk measure when forecasting the risk. Meanwhile, the expected shortfall (ES) is the conditional expectation of exceeding beyond the VaR. I will apply the Copula to improve the risk forecast model of Patton et al. (2019) to forecast the VaR and ES of factors portfolio returns. I apply the goodness-of-fit test and the Diebold-Mariano tests to evaluate the performance of the forecasting models. The results show that the Copula multivariate dynamic forecasting models have their benefit when estimating the future risk. In the last chapter, I present a model, following Burnside et al. (2009), which apply the adverse selection problem between a market maker and trader rationalized, to discuss the negative covariance between the forward premium and spot rate change. I first apply the unique order flow data set to estimate Burnside et al. (2009) model. Then, I creatively discuss the bond and spot exchange transactions to explain the excess return of carry trade. According to the estimation results, I could conclude that the adverse selection could generate the forward premium puzzle.

description: The nonparametric Mann-Kendall test and the Pettitt test were employed to examine the change trends and shifts of runoff and sediment input to Poyang Lake between 1961 and 2013. Water balance and linear regression models were used to evaluate the impacts of climate variability and human activities on the runoff and sediment discharge changes. The results showed that runoff inputs to the lake had insignificant temporal trends and change points, while sediment inputs had significant decreasing trends, with an abrupt change in 1989. Quantitative assessment demonstrated that human activities led to a small decrease (5.5%) in runoff inputs to the lake, and a dramatic (121.4%) decrease in sediment inputs to the lake between the reference period (before the change point) and the human-influenced period (after the change point). This work provides a useful reference for future policy makers in water resource utilization and environmental safety of the Poyang Lake basin.

Publisher: name: University of Glasgow
Year: 2021

description: Additionally, women with RVVC using hormonal contraceptives were found to have a more similar bacterial profile to healthy women, compared with women using other contraceptives. C. albicans biofilm reduction by Lactobacillus species was observed in an in vitro co-culture model. Further, RNA sequencing revealed an α-amino acid biosynthesis/breakdown pathway by which L. crispatus may out-compete C. albicans during VVC to re-establish vaginal health. Finally, bi-daily addition of L. crispatus was shown to reduce C. albicans composition within a complex biofilm model. This study highlights the potential impact of Candida biofilm formation in RVVC and the importance of the consideration of biofilms for diagnosis and treatment. Additionally, it contributes to our current understanding of the vaginal microbiome during RVVC and antagonistic interactions between Candida and Lactobacillus. This work provides a foundation for future studies to further elucidate triggers for the development and recurrence of VVC/RVVC and the pathogenesis of the microbes involved. This and similar work will hopefully lead to the development of novel, more appropriate prevention and treatment options for persistent, azole resistant VVC.

description: Studies using a triaxial accelerometer and heart rate (HR) simultaneously for estimating energy expenditure (EE) during uphill exercise are rare. Exploring the optimal location for placing the accelerometer for predicting EE during uphill exercise is essential. Sixteen healthy male participants (M ± SEM; age 25.00 ± 0.61 years; body weight 74.13 ± 2.51 kg; body height 1.74 ± 0.01 m; body mass index 24.30 ± 0.63 kg/m2) exercised on a treadmill under 12 conditions (4 speeds and 3 gradients) on 3 days. Triaxial accelerometers, an HR recorder, and a metabolic measurement system were simultaneously used. Accelerometer outputs from various anatomical locations (upper arm, chest, lower back, waist, thigh, and instep) showed significant positive correlations with EE (0.819, 0.846, 0.816, 0.820, 0.672, and 0.669, respectively; p < .05). The linear regression equation for changes in HR showed the highest coefficient of determination (r2) of .837 with 87.9% reliability. When the HR signal was included, the r2 value (> .842) and reliability (87.9%) between the accelerometer outputs and EE improved. Accelerometer outputs from the waist position alone provide highly accurate EE values. Using both accelerometer outputs and HR for EE estimation during uphill exercise is feasible and improves the accuracy of EE prediction.

description: We construct the metric perturbation in Lorenz gauge for a compact body on a circular equatorial orbit of a rotating black hole (Kerr) spacetime, using a newly-developed method of separation of variables. The metric perturbation is formed from a linear sum of differential operators acting on Teukolsky mode functions, and certain auxiliary scalars, which are solutions to ordinary differential equations in the frequency domain. For radiative modes, the solution is uniquely determined by the $s=\pm2$ Weyl scalars, the $s=0$ trace, and $s=0,1$ gauge scalars whose amplitudes are determined by imposing continuity conditions on the metric perturbation at the orbital radius. The static (zero-frequency) part of the metric perturbation, which is handled separately, also includes mass and angular momentum completion pieces. The metric perturbation is validated against the independent results of a 2+1D time domain code, and we demonstrate agreement at the expected level in all components, and the absence of gauge discontinuities. In principle, the new method can be used to determine the Lorenz-gauge metric perturbation at a sufficiently high precision to enable accurate second-order self-force calculations on Kerr spacetime in future. We conclude with a discussion of extensions of the method to eccentric and non-equatorial orbits.

title: Genetic markers of anthelmintic resistance in gastrointestinal parasites of ruminants

description: Parasitic gastroenteritis is the primary production limiting disease of sheep in the UK and is a considerable welfare concern. A global problem, it is caused by nematode parasites and mixed species infections can be common. In the UK, the primary pathogen in growing lambs is Teladorsagia circumcincta, an abomasal parasite of small ruminants, causing severe pathology and reduced weight gain. T. circumcincta is expertly adapted to both the host and the farming year and control is extremely difficult. The majority of UK farmers will use anthelmintics to manage parasitic gastroenteritis. Nevertheless, anthelmintic resistance is increasing, reducing control options. Many farmers will now dose sheep with a macrocyclic lactone (e.g. ivermectin) to treat T. circumcincta as this species has developed resistance to multiple anthelmintic classes. Unfortunately, over fifty percent of farms in recent UK studies had detectable ivermectin resistance. There is a pressing need to conserve anthelmintics for future use. However, the mechanism of ivermectin resistance is unknown, and the lack of a sensitive test for ivermectin resistance limits research into resistance spread and development. Many excellent studies have investigated ivermectin resistance in nematode parasites, however mutations responsible for ivermectin resistance remain elusive. The purpose of this PhD was to perform a genome wide association study to identify genomic regions under ivermectin selection within UK T. circumcincta field populations. L3 progeny were sequenced pre- and post-ivermectin treatment using next generation sequencing techniques (ddRAD-Seq and Pool-Seq) and population genetics analyses were performed. Multiple loci were genetically differentiated between pre- and post-ivermectin populations. However, the reference genomes used were highly fragmented and the number of loci under selection cannot be concluded. Genes identified included those with neuronal functions, metabolic and regulatory genes. Many genes had associations with pharyngeal structures and chemosensory behaviour. Nevertheless, multiple copies of genes expected to be single copy were detected in both reference genomes and these may have affected read alignment and results. The work performed here provides an important basis for future studies, and has generated high quality next generation sequenced resources from two UK field populations of T. circumcincta.

Our approach utilizes existing off-the-shelf models, BirdNET and MixIT, to address representation and labeling challenges in the competition. We explore the embedding space learned by BirdNET and propose a process to derive an annotated dataset for supervised learning. Our experiments involve various models and feature engineering approaches to maximize performance on the competition leaderboard. The results demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach in classifying bird species and highlight the potential of transfer learning and semi-supervised dataset annotation in similar tasks.

description: Lexically-guided phonetic retuning helps listeners adapt to the phonetic “fingerprint” of a talker. Previous findings show that listeners can generalise from one accented talker to another accented talker, but only for phonetically similar talkers. We tested whether sleep-mediated consolidation promotes generalisation across accented talkers who are not phonetically similar. Native-English participants were trained on a Mandarin-accented talker and tested on this talker and an untrained Mandarin talker. Experiment 1 showed adaptation for the trained talker and a weak transfer to the untrained talker. In Experiment 2, participants were trained and tested either in the morning (Same-Day group) or evening (Overnight group), and again after twelve hours. Both groups retained talker-specific learning over the 12-hour delay. Importantly, the Overnight group showed improvements for the untrained talker, whereas the Same-Day group’s performance on the untrained talker deteriorated. We suggest that sleep facilitated talker generalisation by helping listeners abstract away from specific acoustic properties of the trained talker.

Conservation Assessment of Two Endemic Butterflies (White Mountain Arctic, Oeneis melissa semidea, and White Mountain Fritillary, Boloria chariclea montinus) in the Presidential Range Alpine Zone, White Mountains, New Hampshire

description: The White Mountain Arctic (Oeneis melissa semidea) and the White Mountain Fritillary (Boloria chariclea montinus) are subspecies endemic to the alpine zone of the Presidential Range in the White Mountains of New Hampshire. They are not known outside of the ~1,130 hectare alpine zone. These two populations are glacial relicts – organisms that were more widespread at the end of the last glaciation but which have since become isolated because of the loss of appropriate habitat in intervening areas as the climate has warmed. Macrofossil and pollen assemblages from lake sediment cores indicate that the White Mountain region was deglaciated prior to 13,000 years ago (Spear 1981). From 13,000 to 11,750 before present (B.P.) the highest elevations were barren with tundra vegetation covering the lower slopes and valleys and mean annual temperatures 5-10°C colder than today. Salix, Juniperus and Betula invaded the alpine zone and tundra gave way to woodlands around 10,300 B.P. From 10,300 to 9,000 BP temperatures increased to modern levels or slightly above and subalpine forests were established, effectively isolating the alpine vegetation from the retreating tundra vegetation to the north. During this period these two butterfly populations were effectively isolated from other populations that retreated northward, and they remain isolated to this day. This conservation assessment is an effort to gather all known information regarding these two butterfly subspecies. A literature search yielded only one published study on these subspecies (see Anthony 1970). Information was augmented from studies of congeners and other populations, as well as unpublished observations of lepidopterists queried on the leps e-mail listserve (http://www.peabody.yale.edu/other/lepsl/). Additional information was added to this report following field observations in 2002 and 2003.
title: Understanding national identity education: a comparative case study of two schools in Mainland China and Scotland
Creators: name: Rao, Shuqi
Publisher: name: University of Glasgow
Year: 2020
Subjects: subject: national identity education, global citizenship education, globalisation, Mainland China, Scotland.

description: Situated in the context of globalisation, this study examines the tensions between the search for national consciousness and a new call for global citizenship. The overarching aim is to explore how senses of national identity and global identity are advanced through school education. Specifically, this study explores three research questions: 1. How are senses of national identity and global identity promoted through the intended curriculum in primary schools in Mainland China and Scotland? 2. How are senses of national identity and global identity promoted through the implemented curriculum in primary schools in Mainland China and Scotland? 3. How are senses of national identity and global identity experienced and understood through the attained curriculum in primary schools in Mainland China and Scotland? This study adopts a comparative case study to compare two primary schools located in Changchun, China and Glasgow, Scotland. Research methods employed include document analysis of curriculum standards and textbooks, semi-structured interviews with policy experts and teachers, non-participation observations of school environment and activities, and focus groups with students. Thematic analysis is adopted as a generic approach to organise and interpret the data. The findings suggest that both schools are dedicated to multiple citizenship education to advance learners’ identifications of different communities. In the case school in Mainland China, greater emphasis is placed on Chinese identity education; global identity education is regarded as simultaneously conducive and threatening to Chinese identity education. In the case school in Scotland, more attention is attached to global identity education, which is not only compatible with, but also conducive to Scottish identity education. According to the analytical framework exploring the relationship between national identity education and global identity education, the Chinese and Scottish case schools are respectively categorised as Inclusive National and Inclusive Global. These categories reflect the ways in which national-global interactions are shaped by their wider contexts: the need for national cohesion and social harmony is urgent in Mainland China, while adapting to an increasingly heterogeneous society is of more concern to Scotland.

Tailoring quantum error correction to spin qubits

Year: 2023
Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Spin qubits in semiconductor structures bring the promise of large-scale 2D integration, with the possibility to incorporate the control electronics on the same chip. In order to perform error correction on this platform, the characteristic features of spin qubits need to be accounted for. E.g., qubit readout involves an additional qubit which necessitates careful reconsideration of the qubit layout. The noise affecting spin qubits has further peculiarities such as the strong bias towards dephasing. In this work we consider state-of-the-art error correction codes that require only nearest-neighbour connectivity and are amenable to fast decoding via minimum-weight perfect matching. Compared to the surface code, the XZZX code, the reduced-connectivity surface code, the XYZ$^2$ matching code, and the Floquet code all bring different advantages in terms of error threshold, connectivity, or logical qubit encoding. We present the spin-qubit layout required for each of these error correction codes, accounting for reference qubits required for spin readout. The performance of these codes is studied under circuit-level noise accounting for distinct error rates for gates, readout and qubit decoherence during idling stages.

description: Investigation of N-heterocycle transition metal complexes has led to the discovery of metal-based antitumor agents. Herein, two binuclear complexes, [Cu(p-4-bmb)(Ac)2]2 (1) and [Co(p-4-bmp)Cl2]2 (2), were prepared and characterized. The interactions of 1 and 2 with calf thymus (CT)-DNA and bovine serum albumin (BSA) were detected by absorbance and emission spectroscopy. The complexes bind to CT-DNA via an intercalative mode and show moderate affinity to BSA. Both complexes exhibited remarkable DNA cleavage activity. The MTT assay demonstrated that 1 exhibited higher cytotoxicity against three human alimentary system carcinoma cell lines compared to 2. Further, a cellular uptake assay demonstrated that 1 can accumulate in the nucleus and mitochondria of SMMC7721 cells to induce DNA damage and mitochondrial dysfunction. Fluorescence staining and flow cytometry analyses revealed that 1 can induce cell death by apoptosis. These findings should promote the development of benzimidazole-based transition metal complexes as novel chemotherapy agents with fewer side effects than conventional antitumor drugs.
