description: Excerpts from the report Summary: Two small-package scales were tested to determine the feasibility of separating celery stalks by weight. One scale was a three-channel classifier that diverted stalks weighing more or less than the standard weight range set on the machine. The celery stalks were transported across the weighing platform by a moving belt. The displacement of the platform was electronically sensed, and the stalks were separated into one of three weight groups. The other scale operated similarly, but separated the stalks into only two groups. This sizer was a mechanical-beam type that has been in general use to size poultry carcasses for a number of years. The weighing system consisted of an overhead monorail conveyor from which stalk carriers were suspended. When the weight of the stalk plus the carrier was sufficient to depress a section of conveyor track, the carrier was dumped and the stalk fell onto a conveyor belt that transported it to the packers. All of the mechanical scales that were evaluated sized celery stalks more accurately than the commonly used hand-sizing method.

description: The effects of straw retention on soil bacterial community structure, microbial function, and biochemical properties were assessed. Terminal restriction fragment length polymorphism (T-RFLP) and community-level physiological profile (CLPP) assays were used to assess the bacteria community structure and microbial function respectively. Treatments included straw removal with conventional tillage (CT), straw retention with conventional tillage (SRCT) and straw retention with no tillage (SRNT). SRCT and SRNT significantly (p < 0.05) increased soil organic carbon by 8.9% and 9.7%, and microbial biomass carbon by 44.7% and 330.8%, respectively, compared with CT. T-RFLP analysis indicated that straw retention had no favourable effect on soil bacterial diversity, and SRCT significantly (p < 0.05) decreased bacterial diversity compared to CT. Among the three treatments, SRNT had the highest activity of urease, invertase, cellulase, and β-glucosidase. SRCT significantly (p < 0.05) increased the activity of invertase and β-glucosidase compared to CT treatment. CLPP analysis showed that microbial functional diversity was significantly (p < 0.05) increased by straw retention. Enzyme activity and microbial functional diversity were not correlated with bacterial diversity. Therefore, according to this study, SRNT is a better farming practice because it improves soil fertility and biological quality.

description: Myracrodruon urundeuva, popularly known as ‘aroeira-do-sertão’, a large tree, with a tall trunk. Belonging to the Anacardiaceae family, it occurs in the ‘caatinga’ and dry forests of Brazil, from Ceará to the states of Paraná and Mato Grosso do Sul. The present study aimed to analyse the whitening and antioxidant activities of the aqueous extract of the leaves of Myracrodruon urundeuva (AELMU). Inhibition of the tyrosinase enzyme, as well as its copper chelating capacity and antioxidant effect were evaluated. The AELMU (at 2000 µg/mL) showed excellent inhibitory action (83.76%) on tyrosinase by chelating the copper ion while kojic acid at the same concentration inhibited 97.81%. Moreover, the extract displayed important antioxidant activity (inhibited 76,46% of the 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl radical - DPPH; 49,59% of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances and 51,07% of the hydroxyl radical). Thus, the extract under study is promising for use in cosmetics, given its multifactorial action.

description: Salvia dumetorum essential oil (SDEO) was obtained using a Clevenger apparatus by hydrodistillation approach. The chemical composition of the essential oil was determined by GC-MS analysis. In this study SDEO was screened for its antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtilis, Escherichia coli, and Candida albicans and the amount of biofilm formed by Streptococcus mutans bacteria. For the first time the chemical composition of SDEO growing in Central Kazakhstan was established. The results obtained from GC-MS showed the predominance of sesquiterpenoids (54.15%). The antibacterial study results showed that SDEO exhibited strong antibacterial activity against B. subtilis and S. aureus in vitro and also demonstrated an inhibitory effect on S. mutans biofilm formation on 1% sucrose medium. During the study, no antibacterial activity was detected against E. coli and C. albicans. These results demonstrated that SDEO can be used in the development of new antibacterial and anti-caries therapeutic dental products.

description: Medicinal plants contain many bioactive compounds that are often hosted in medicinally active extracts generated from their various parts. The quest for reliable products from medicinal plants escalated in recent years as an answer to emerging health complications and the much-needed sufficient scientific backing that is dependent on proper preparation and characterisation principles of active extracts. This study described the Soxhlet and the maceration methods that are used to process extracts from the inert materials of medicinal plants using appropriate biocompatible solvents, the phytochemical screening assays, and TLC, UV spectrometry, FT-IR, and GC-MS techniques used in phytochemical studies. These techniques are crucial in studies that are meant to explore the active components of medicinal plants and their relative pharmacological effects. This information can be used as a guide when formulating effective yet less toxic plant-derived drugs and provide opportunities to upgrade while reducing further complexity in phytochemical studies.

description: Power system oscillation is one of the phenomena that can cause problem in power system that can even lead to outage. Using data of phasor sifting in power system available through Phasor Measurement Unit (PMU) implementation, power system oscillations could be observed directly. However, to predict the condition of power system, the recorded phasor data need to be processed to obtain the quantitative measures. In this paper, important parameters are extracted by applying Hilbert Huang Transform (HHT) to phasor signal taken from PMU. The stable and oscillation condition are determined by the parameters that show the increasing power of each frequency over period of time. Validation is conducted by using simulation data that represents characteristic of PMU data.

description: Mentha piperita, as a species of the mint family, is used in various medical, cosmetic, industrial and culinary products. The effect of different concentrations of salicylic acid (SA) (0. 0.5, 1 mM) on phytochemical activity and antimicrobial potential of Mentha piperita essential oil against six human pathogenic bacteria (Streptococcus agalactiae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Staphylococcus aureus and Listeria monocytogenes) were investigated. According to the results to prevent the growth of L. monocytogenes and S. agalactiae, Gram-positive bacteria, peppermint, essential oil treatment with 1 mM salicylic acid is suggested. But to prevent the growth of Gram-negative bacteria P. aeruginosa and E. coli, peppermint essential oil of control plants is proposed. These results showed that salicylic acid elicitor changed the type and amount of peppermint essential oil compounds. Probably, salicylic acid elicitor improved antimicrobial properties of peppermint essential oil with a change in essential oil components. The inhibitory activity of essential oil depends on the type of microorganism, the concentration of essential oil and the concentration and time of salicylic acid treatment.
An investigation of the prognostic utility of RANTES levels in predicting mortality in an angiography population
Creators: name: Di Palma, Stefanie
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2014

description: RANTES (Regulated upon activation, normal T cell expressed and secreted) is a chemokine involved in the recruitment and transmigration of leukocytes across the vascular endothelium. A large body of experimental evidence suggests the role of RANTES and its receptor, CCR5, in atherosclerosis and has prompted the study of RANTES as a biomarker of coronary artery disease (CAD). We sought to investigate baseline plasma RANTES as a marker of mortality in a cohort of patients referred for angiography. RANTES levels were measured in 831 patients who were classified by angiogram as positive or negative for CAD. At the time of recruitment, blood samples were collected and later assayed using a commercial ELISA kit for RANTES. Mortality data was collected in 2009 to identify deceased patients and the cause of death. RANTES levels were significantly different between men and women (27.7 ng/mL and 34.2 ng/mL, p=0.001) and between subjects with and without family history of CAD (30.3 ng/mL and 28.1 ng/mL, p=0.006). The predictive value of RANTES levels for CAD was assessed using a multivariate logistic regression model adjusting for traditional markers of CAD. Triglycerides and apolipoprotein B levels were independent predictors, with odds ratios of OR 2.65 [95% CI: 1.05-6.69] and OR 2.65 [95% CI: 1.01-6.93], p<0.001 respectively. RANTES levels were associated with CAD, OR 1.67 [95% CI: 1.00-2.76], p=0.047, although this association was moderate. When divided into quartiles, subjects with a RANTES level above the fourth quartile were associated with a greater risk of CAD, OR 1.73 [95% CI: 1.05-2.86], p=0.031. After a mean follow-up of 11.1 years, 256 of the 831 subjects were deceased. Using a Cox regression model, we assessed the ability of RANTES to predict cardiovascular and all-cause mortality. Only age and smoking status independently predicted death due to any cause (p<0.001 and p=0.015, respectively). Our results suggest that RANTES levels do not enhance cardiovascular risk prediction in a population of patients with stable CAD. Further studies to explain the association between RANTES, family history of CAD and female gender could determine whether risk prediction would be improved for these groups.

description: We used a classical deep feedforward neural network (DFFNN) for an automatic sleep stage scoring based on a single-channel EEG signal. We used an open-available dataset, randomly selecting one healthy young adult for both training (≈5%) and evaluation (≈95%). We also augmented the validation by using 5-fold cross validations for the result comparisons. We introduced a new method for inferring the trained network based on a ROM module (memory concept), so it would be faster than directly inferring the trained Deep Neural Network (DNN). The ROM content is filled after the DNN network is trained by the training set and inferred using the testing set. An accuracy of 97% was achieved in inferring the test datasets using ROM when compared to the classic trained DNN inference process.

description: The present study is an evaluation of Centella asiatica ethanolic extract in terms of total phenolic content, total flavonoids, total flavonols, anthocyanin, antioxidants, and antibacterial activities. Centella asiatica plants were collected from Guilan province, Iran. High-performance liquid chromatography-Diode array detector analysis demonstrated that the ethanolic extract of C. asiatica contained phenolic substances such as sinapic acid, catechin, quercetin, p-coumaric acid, hesperidin, eugenol, and hesperetin. The predominant phenolic compound in the extract was hesperetin. The antibacterial activities of the extract were highly potent against S. aureus and B. cereus. These findings suggest that C. asiatica is rich in phenolic compounds and can be utilised for future cosmetic and pharmaceutical purposes.

It is imperative for stakeholders, individual keepers of natural science collections, the community at large, and even for funding agencies, not only to tackle this backlog as quickly as possible, but do it in the best possible order. To establish the best possible order for digitizing biocollections a demand driven framework is required based among others on criteria used to digitize biocollections.
Framing a shifting paradigm : art and anatomy in the early modern era
Creators: name: Jansen, Judy
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2014

description: My thesis examines for the first time the extraordinary relationship among the frontispieces and illustrations of three mid-sixteenth century anatomical texts: Andreas Vesalius’ famous 1543 De humani corporis fabrica, hereinafter “Fabrica;” Juan Valverde’s 1556 Historia de la composicion del cuorpo humano, hereinafter “Historia;” and Realdo Columbo’s 1559 De re Anatomica. These frontispieces enact a sequential, dialogic – and most importantly – visual exchange of contemporary, interpenetrating debates on anatomical science, art practice, and art theory. They stage a contest, paregone, between Michelangelo and Titian, art and science, image and text and different modes of producing and framing knowledge. Vesalius’ paradigm shift in anatomical science required direct observation of the human body’s interior structures and their accurate, systematized, visual representation. Anatomy’s demands for precise visual depiction collided with sixteenth century Italian ideology that perceived the body as the pinnacle of creation and portrayed it in a classical, idealizing mode. Vesalius’ and Valverde’s insistence that their anatomical illustrations serve different visual constituencies – physicians, anatomists and artists; audiences with conflicting visual demands, posed unprecedented problems of presentation. These frontispieces and illustrations expose the graphical processes underpinning a new visual paradigm forged to meet these diverse, conflicting representational requirements. Combining new visual conventions developed to illustrate machines in the emerging genre of engineering treatises, innovative drawing techniques appropriated from art practice, and fine art practice’s classicized human form, generated the animated cadavers that strut and gesture across the pages of these works creating a template for anatomical illustration that persisted for centuries. These frontispieces’ oppositional iconographic systems, encoded visual vocabularies, and emblems reveal the contemporary taste for deciphering visual puzzles, opening a portal into the mid-sixteenth century visual imagination. Inscribing an extended, witty, historiography of the origins of a new visual paradigm plundered from fragments of Raphael’s, Michelangelo’s and Titian’s most celebrated works; works whose own pillaging from classical art they expose, these frontispieces and illustrations peel away layers of artistic artifice to reveal the means of their own representation and its limitations.

Recently Blockchain has received special attention and is used as a new platform for digital information and to store encrypted data and process secure digital transactions. Noticeably, the majority of Blockchain cryptocurrency is structured based on the elliptic curves digital signature algorithm (ECDSA). In particular, Bitcoin uses special ECDSA called secp256k1. Losses of personal and organizational data occurred due to security breaches of data at small and large scales using traditional transactional and financial platforms. Furthermore, data on Blockchain and Bitcoin platforms are assumed to be highly encrypted and in secured state.

description: Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) is an incurable illness of the gastrointestinal tract. Its relapsing-remitting nature negatively impacts physical health and Quality of Life (QoL). Food and eating are key concerns for people with this illness. To provide holistic person-centred care healthcare providers (HCPs) need to meet patients’ dietary information needs. In addition to negatively impacting the individual’s physical health, it has a direct negative impact on QoL, including the relationship with food and eating. Person-centred care includes effective communication between the person with IBD and the HCP. Maintaining remission and improving gastrointestinal symptoms via medical management are important goals for the treatment and management of IBD. However, individuals can continue to experience symptoms negatively impacting their QoL. To provide holistic person-centred care it is essential for HCPs to meet patients’ information needs, including addressing diet related queries. Therefore, the aims of this study were to explore the i) perceived dietary information needs of individuals with IBD and ii) describe the diet-related perceptions of HCP providing care to this cohort. We were also interested in any differences in information needs between IBD types, and enablers and barriers to communication between people with IBD and HCPs.

description: This work introduces the development of two software routines for Short-Time Fourier Transform (STFT) and Inverse Short-Time Fourier Transform (ISTFT) along with know-how about their practical implementation. The proposed algorithms and the corresponding novel Matlab® functions form a conjugated analysis-synthesis pair and assist the time-frequency analysis, processing, resynthesis and visualization of real-world non-stationary signals. In the paper, background information is given about the mathematical framework of the STFT, ISTFT and the perfect reconstruction condition. Further, the proposed algorithms and routines are described, based on DFT, IDFT and the overlap-add (OLA) synthesis approach. Comprehensive notes and recommendations are given concerning the applied aspects of their usage. Finally, examples are provided to confirm the consistency of the algorithms and routines, including analysis, spectral modification and resynthesis of non-stationary signals, along with example for the outperformance of the proposed analysis function in comparison with the corresponding in-built Matlab® function.

If you're referring to accounting issues related to raw materials in the context of cost accounting, there are several aspects to consider. Here are some key points related to the cost accounting of raw materials:
Purchase of Raw Materials:

Record the purchase of raw materials in the accounting system.
Debit the Raw Materials Inventory account to increase its balance.
Credit the accounts payable or cash account, depending on how the raw materials were acquired.
Usage of Raw Materials:

As raw materials are used in the production process, their cost is transferred to the Work in Process (WIP) account.
Debit the WIP account to increase its balance.
Credit the Raw Materials Inventory account to decrease its balance.
Indirect Costs:

Consider any indirect costs associated with raw materials, such as storage or handling costs.
Allocate or apply these indirect costs to the raw materials used to determine the total cost.
Valuation:

Use an appropriate method to value the raw materials. Common methods include FIFO (First In, First Out) or weighted average.
The valuation method affects the cost of goods sold and the ending inventory value.
Recording Wastage or Spoilage:

If there is any wastage or spoilage of raw materials, account for it separately.
Adjust the cost of raw materials to reflect the actual usable quantity.
Inventory Reconciliation:

Regularly reconcile the raw materials inventory to ensure accurate reporting and to identify any discrepancies.
Financial Statements:

Ensure that the costs associated with raw materials are accurately reflected in the financial statements, including the income statement and balance sheet.
Compliance:

Adhere to accounting standards and regulations when accounting for raw materials costs.
Remember that the specific details may vary based on the accounting standards used (e.g., Generally Accepted Accounting Principles or International Financial Reporting Standards) and the company's internal policies. If you have a more specific question or scenario, feel free to provide additional details for a more tailored response.

description: α-Pinene (PEN) is a phyto compound present in terpene plants. In traditional medicine, PEN has been used for its anti-inflammatory, pain-relieving, and bronchodilator properties. The effect of PEN in combination with temozolomide (TMZ) in glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) cells has been evaluated. The action of the PEN + TMZ combination on cell migration, soft-agar, and cell death was determined in LN229 and U87MG human glioblastoma cells. In combination, PEN with TMZ showed a synergistic inhibitory effect in the GBM cells. The PEN + TMZ treatment showed a higher fluorescent intensity and reduced the percentage of wound area closure compared to the compound alone. The compounds in combination also resulted in a reduction in single-cell colony formation. To conclude, the study showed that plant-derived PEN enhanced the effectiveness of standard chemotherapeutic, TMZ, in LN229 and U87MG cells.

description: Excerpts from the report: Fifty-one test shipments of citrus fruits were sent from California to Rotterdam, the Netherlands, during the main part of the marketing season of 1967. The shipments extended from late April to the first of September. Forty-five of the shipments were sent by railcar from California to the Atlantic seaboard, where they were transferred to ships bound for Rotterdam. The six remaining shipments were routed from the Los Angeles-Long Beach port area to Rotterdam via the Panama Canal. Valencia oranges were used in 36 of the test shipments, lemons in nine, and grapefruit in six. This series of test shipments was made to obtain data on the biphenyl residue in California citrus fruits protected by biphenyl pads, both on arrival of the fruit at western European ports and after it was held for a period equivalent to that needed for distribution to the various markets. These shipments also were designed to provide information on transit temperature and fruit condition associated with several methods of transportation.

description: Mortality improvements across different populations are correlated. In contrast to mortality modelling and forecasting for a single population, multi-population mortality projections will account for potential correlations in mortality experience in different populations. Therefore, it will eliminate the long-term divergent behaviour from single population mortality forecasts. The thesis aims to develop a unified Bayesian state-space framework to model, estimate and forecast mortality rates in the multi-population context.

description: Video super-resolution (VSR) methods align and fuse consecutive low-resolution frames to generate high-resolution frames. One of the main difficulties for the VSR process is that video contains various motions, and the accuracy of motion estimation dramatically affects the quality of video restoration. However, standard CNNs share the same receptive field in each layer, and it is challenging to estimate diverse motions effectively. Neuroscience research has shown that the receptive fields of biological visual areas will be adjusted according to the input information. Diverse receptive fields in temporal and spatial dimensions have the potential to adapt to various motions, which is rarely paid attention in most known VSR methods. In this thesis, we propose to provide adaptive receptive fields for the VSR model. Firstly, we design a multi-kernel 3D convolution network and integrate it with a multi-kernel deformable convolution network for motion estimation and multiple frames alignment. Secondly, we propose a 2D multi-kernel convolution framework to improve texture restoration quality. Our experimental results show that the proposed framework outperforms the state-of-the-art VSR methods.
