description: Cellular organelles have been shown to shuttle between cells in co-culture. We hereby show that titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles (NPs) can be transferred in such a manner, between cells in direct contact, along with endosomes and lysosomes. A co-culture system was employed for this purpose and the NP transfer was observed in mammalian cells including normal rat kidney (NRK) and HeLa cells. We found that the small GTPase Arf6 facilitates the intercellular transfer of smaller NPs and agglomerates. Spherical, anatase nano-TiO2 with sizes of 5 (Ti5) and 40 nm (Ti40) were used in this study. Humans are increasingly exposed to TiO2 NPs from external sources such as constituents of foods, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals, or from internal sources represented by Ti-based implants, which release NPs upon abrasion. Exposure to 5 mg/l of Ti5 and Ti40 for 24 h did not affect cellular viability but modified their ability to communicate with surrounding cells. Altogether, our results have important implications for the design of nanomedicines, drug delivery and toxicity.

Lymnaea fragilis

description: Lymnaea fragilis (Linnaeus, 1758)
(Fig. 3, B)
 Distribution: The species is recorded in the localities 7, 11 and 17 (Table 1). In Ukraine the species is registered in all regions including the Transcarpathian (Stadnichenko 2004: Stadnichenko & Gyrin 2011). General distribution covers Western and Central Europe.
 Remarks: In the Transcarpathian this species occurs sporadically, inhabits mainly natural and artificial ponds, associated with macrophytes at depths of 0.5–1.0 m.
 Though genetic studies (e.g. Mezhzherin et al. 2008; Vinarski et al. 2012a) did not reveal any reliable genetic traits distinguishing „ stagnalis " and „ fragilis’ we treat these forms as two conchologically separated “morphospecies”. The proper status of L. fragilis is to be clarified by means of the integrative taxonomic approach.

description: Objectives: Narrative, unsystematic reviews revealed no differences in efficacy between the various first-generation antipsychotics (FGAs) resulting in the psychopharmacological assumption of comparable efficacy between the different FGAs. We sought to determine if the assumption of comparable efficacy of all FGAs can be regarded as evidence-based using meta-analytic statistics. Methods: A systematic literature survey (Cochrane Schizophrenia Group trial register) was applied to identify all RCTs that compared oral haloperidol with another oral FGA in schizophrenia. Primary outcome was dichotomous treatment response. Secondary outcomes were symptom severity measured by rating scales, discontinuation rates, and specific adverse effects. Results: Altogether, 79 RCTs with 4343 participants published between 1962 and 1999 were included. We found a significant between-group difference only between haloperidol and nemonapride, but not for the remaining 19 investigated FGAs. There were no significant differences for discontinuation rates. Conclusions: As most of the single meta-analytic comparisons can be regarded as underpowered, the evidence for the assumption of comparable efficacy of all FGAs is inconclusive. We therefore cannot confirm or reject the statements of previous narrative, unsystematic reviews in this regard. Our findings were limited by the small sample size in the individual comparisons and the low methodological quality in many included studies.
Quasi one-dimensional organic conductors: from Fröhlich conductivity and Peierls insulating state to magnetically-mediated superconductivity, a retrospective

description: It is indisputable that the search for high-temperature superconductivity has stimulated the work on low-dimensional organic conductors at its beginning. Since the discovery of true metal-like conduction in molecular compounds more than 50 years ago, it appeared that the chemical composition and the quasi one-dimensional crystalline structure of these conductors were determining factors for their physical properties; materials with incommensurate conduction band filling favoring the low-dimensional electron-phonon diverging channel and the establishment of the Peierls superstructure and more rarely superconductivity at low temperature, while those with commensurate band filling favor either magnetic insulating or superconducting states depending on the intensity of the coupling between conductive chains. In addition, the simple structures of these materials have allowed the development of theoretical models in close cooperation with almost all experimental findings. Even though these materials have not yet given rise to true high-temperature superconductivity, the wealth of their physical properties makes them systems of choice in the field of condensed matter physics due to their original properties and their educational qualities. Research efforts continue in this field. The present retrospective, which does not attempt to be an exhaustive review of the field, provides a set of experimental findings alluding to the theoretical development while a forthcoming article will address in more details the theoretical aspect of low dimensional conductors and superconductors.

description: In magnetic insulators, the sense of rotation of the magnetization is associated with novel phases of matter and exotic transport phenomena. Aimed to find new sources of chiral magnetism rooted in intrinsic fields and geometry, twisted square bilayers of magnetic dipoles with easy plane anisotropy are studied. For no twist, each lattice settles in the zig-zag magnetic state and orders antiferromagnetically to the other layer. The moire patterns that result from the mutual rotation of the two square lattices influence such zig-zag order, giving rise to several phases that depict non-collinear magnetic textures with chiral motifs that break both time and inversion symmetry. For certain moire angles, helical and toroidal magnetic orders arise. Changing the vertical distance between layers can further manipulate these novel phases. It is shown that the dipolar interlayer interaction induces an emergent twist-dependent chiral magnetic field orthogonal to the direction of the zig-zag chains, which is responsible for the internal torques conjugated to the toroidal orders.

description: Wireless Multimedia Sensor Networks will be a critical component in Critical Wireless Networks, which is protecting and counteracting a few emergencies and threats and enhance infrastructure for strategic military operations. For enabling these applications, the Wireless Multimedia Sensor Networks need various mechanisms to deliver multimedia content with Quality of Service (QoS). This QoS is one of the most important parameters which should be focussed in Wireless Sensor Networks, which is used to improve the Bandwidth Utilization and Throughput as well.Energy Conservation is another prime parameter which should be considered when designing of Communication protocols for Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). The Cross Layer Wireless Multimedia Sensor Networks (XL-WMSN) was proposed recently to facilitate Energy Conservation. This proposed model is achieving very high data rate in Multimedia communication over Wireless Sensor Networks. This is supporting deadline-aware content delivery and also it is focusing Energy Aware Computation. However, from our experimental results, we understood that this XL-WMSN fails to achieve Throughput, Delay and Jitter and also it doesn’t provide on demand QoS to users, which is not focusing Bandwidth Utilization too. To address these major issues, this paper has proposed an Efficient Hybrid Cross-Layer Protocol (Hybrid-XLP),which is the combination of XL-WMSN and QoS Routing. From the Simulation Results, it is established that the proposed technique improves the performance of Wireless Multimedia Sensor Networks in terms of Bandwidth Utilization, Throughput, Delay and Interference-Aware Routing. It is also achieving Energy Conservation.

description: Wireless sensor network often used in a challenging application where data transmission is daunting. In order to improve the reliability of the data transmission two novel energy-aware routing algorithms for wireless ad hoc networks called Signal Interference Noise Ratio (SINR) and TABU energy routing has been proposed in this work. SINR addresses some parameters like energy-efficiency, reliability and operation of network. It deliberates the energy consumption and the remaining battery energy of nodes as well as quality of links to find energy-efficient and reliable routes that increase the operational lifetime of the network. TABU on the other hand, is an energy-efficient routing algorithm which finds routes minimizing the total energy required for end-to-end packet traversal. RMER and RMECR are proposed of networks in which either hop-by-hop or end-to-end retransmissions ensure reliability. This makes SINR an elegant solution to increase energy-efficiency, reliability and lifespan of wireless ad hoc networks.

description: In this paper, a novel method is proposed to reduce the number of route misdirection to increase network throughput. This method increases the network throughput by accurately sending the packets from source node to destination node without any packet loss, which ensures Quality of Services (QoS) routing services. These metrics are used for making better routing decisions to avoid the packets being misrouted in the network. The proposed method operates under two phases: ﬂow control and QoS routing phase. Wireless sensor network dynamically changes its topological structure since the path between source and destination nodes varies at the rapid instance of time. Hence, the ﬂow control phase is used to adjust the packet ﬂow through a proper link to reach its destination node. The ﬂow control phase effectively designs an improved Random Waypoint Mobility model that utilizes three metrics for avoiding the packets being misdirected. In the second phase, the packets are routed through proper routes after avoiding the misdirected routes using an adaptive QoS routing protocol. This helps to increase the throughput of the network and this utilizes the three metrics for accurate identiﬁcation of routes. The performance of the proposed method is evaluated the various metrics like network throughput (98.595 kbps), network lifetime (346 s) and delay (0.922 s). The proposed method is compared with existing QoS routing algorithms. The results show that the proposed method has improved its throughput level by reducing the total number of packets being misrouted in the network.

description: After 25 years of the prediction of the possibility of observations, and despite the many hundreds of well studied transiting exoplanet systems, we are still waiting for the announcement of the first confirmed exomoon. We follow the ``cascade'' structure of the Drake equation, but apply it to the chain of events leading to a successful detection of an exomoon. The scope of this paper is to reveal the structure of the problem, rather than to give a quantitative solution. We identify three important steps that can lead us to discovery. The steps are the formation, the orbital dynamics and long-term stability, and the observability of a given exomoon in a given system. This way, the question will be closely related to questions of star formation, planet formation, 5 possible pathways of moon formation; long-term dynamics of evolved planet systems involving stellar and planetary rotation and internal structure; and the proper evaluation of the observed data, taking the correlated noise of stellar and instrumental origin and the sampling function also into account. We highlight how a successful exomoon observation and the interpretations of the expected further measurements prove to be among the most complex and most interdisciplinary questions in astrophysics.

description: The foremost development in the volume and significance of web communication through the internet has enlarged the necessity of better security protction. The experts in providing security, while protecting the system maintains a record with containing marks of huge amount of support in recognizing attack revealing. Moreover, this limits the system capability as it can identify only the known attacks that are present in the database, in order to overcome this crisis, ensemble classifier to identify unknown attacks in the internet is proposed. This intrusion detection process involves elimination of redundant and irrelevant features using wrapper based and filter based approach. A hybrid Logic based Adaboost Decision tree model is employed here. The anticipated ensemble classifier was utilized in the online available NSL-KDD dataset which is an improved version of KDD cup dataset from 1999. The experimental outcomes demonstrates that the proposed method shows better trade off than the existing methods in terms of accuracy by 88.12 % in detecting the attacks than the traditional methods, while considering low false rejection rates. This proposed method is simulated in MATLAB environment to compute the accuracy.

description: Olive oil is a very important product due to its nutritional value, sensory and antioxidant properties. National and international regulations define basic quality parameters (such as acidity and peroxide index) to discriminate high quality oils (extra virgin olive oil) from those of lower quality. The standard procedures to measure acidity and peroxide index feature manual titration requiring laboratory environment and trained personnel. In this paper a novel technique, based on electrical impedance spectroscopy, is presented and implemented as a low-cost, mobile instrument to be used everywhere and by anybody, with substantial improvements of the current quality control of olive oil producers of any dimension. The presented method is validated on 39 olive oil samples with different levels of acidity, peroxide index and total phenolic content. The results show that the conductance of an emulsion of olive oil with a hydro-alcoholic solution is correlated with the oil acidity. Furthermore, since, for the same oil, the emulsion conductance varies with the oil storage conditions (because of increases in the peroxide index), the presented technique could also be used to evaluate product ageing.

This is the largest scale at which published topographic maps cover the entire continent. Each standard map covers an area of approximately 1.5 degrees longitude by 1 degree latitude or about 150 kilometres from east to west and at least 110 kilometres from north to south. The topographic map shows approximate coverage of the sheets. The map may contain information from surrounding map sheets to maximise utilisation of available space on the map sheet. There are about 50 special maps in the series and these maps cover a non-standard area. Typically, where a map produced on standard sheet lines is largely ocean it is combined with its landward neighbour. These maps contain natural and constructed features including road and rail infrastructure, vegetation, hydrography, contours (interval 50m), localities and some administrative boundaries.

description: Mobile ad-hoc network is a kind of wireless ad-hoc network, and is a self-configuring network of mobile routers connected by wireless links the union of which forms an arbitrary topology. Mobility and scalability brought by wireless network made it possible in many applications, Digital signatures frequently used for distribution of messages from sender to receiver ,It certificate serve as a proof of an authentication for individual data packets. The DPF e is designed to resolve the weakness of Watchdog when it fails to detect misbehaving nodes with the presence of false misbehaviour report. The core of DPF algorithm is to authenticate whether the destination node has received the reported missing packet through a different route. With the improvements of the technology and cut in hardware costs, we are witnessing a current trend of expanding MANETs into industrial applications. To adjust to such trend, we strongly believe that it is vital to address its potential security issues. In this paper, we propose and implement a new intrusion-detection system named Enhanced Adaptive Acknowledgment (EAACK) specially designed for MANETs. Compared to contemporary approaches, EAACK demonstrates higher malicious- behavior-detection rates in certain circumstances while does not greatly affect the network performances.

We present a pipeline for using an AI assistant to generate simplified summaries of judicial opinions. Compared to existing expert-written summaries, these AI-generated simple summaries are more accessible to the public and more easily understood by non-experts. We show in a survey experiment that the AI summaries help respondents understand the key features of a ruling, and have higher perceived quality, especially for respondents with less formal education.

description: The freezing process is very important in ice cream production affecting quality, taste and yield of the finished product. Batch freezer machines use different control techniques to tightly control the freezing process, based on monitoring of the temperature and/or the viscosity (i.e. consistency) of the product. Temperature control, however, features low sensitivity and need calibration for different product compositions, while product viscosity is essentially inferred from dasher motor load, sensitive to power line fluctuations, volume of product and dasher motor characteristics. In this context, this paper presents a novel technique based on measurements of the product electrical characteristics, tightly linked to temperature and viscosity. The experimental results presented in this work clearly indicate that the proposed technique provides a suitable, non destructive tool to monitor ice cream quality product that overcomes the drawbacks of the standard methods, thus representing an advance in the state of the art for freezing control.

description: In recent times, deep learning technique turns to be an interesting topic, which is extensively utilized to construct an Intrusion Detection System (IDS) for identifying and classifying web attacks at network level in a periodic manner. Moreover, numerous challenges as malicious attack change its characteristics constantly. There are diverse malware datasets that are available publicly. In this investigation, Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), which a kind of Deep learning is explored along with dimensionality reduction for Intrusion Detection (DRCNN-IDS). This approach is used to identify and classify unpredictable attacks in networks. Due to the constantly changing nature of attacks, evaluation of benchmark dataset is also essential. A conceptual evaluation of this investigation with DRCNN-IDS is compared with Machine learning approaches. The irrelevant features of attacks are eliminated for reducing the network dimensionality for the computation of accuracy. The reduced features are extracted automatically by the anticipated CNN model, which is a preliminary advantage of using deep learning concepts. This work utilizes KDD cup 99’ dataset for accuracy computation. Simulation was carried out in MATLAB environment and the performance is compared with prevailing Machine Learning approaches. The anticipated model shows enhanced performance in terms of accuracy. Comparison is made with DNN, RNN, RF, SVM, Naive Bayes and so on. Accuracy attained with simulation is 96%.

description: This article explores concurrency control in multithreaded environments using the SemaphoreSlim class in C#. SemaphoreSlim is a lightweight semaphore implementation that limits the number of threads accessing a resource simultaneously, making it ideal for I/O operations. The article explains its operation, advantages and disadvantages, as well as providing practical implementation examples in scenarios such as database access and external services.

description: Bacterial detection is of primary importance in many fields, such as food and environmental monitoring. Measurements of bacterial concentration are traditionally carried out by means of the Standard Plate Count technique, a reliable method for microbial screening that, however, features long response time and is carried out by qualified personnel in microbiology laboratories. The impedance technique for bacterial concentration detection represents a method very competitive with Standard Plate Count in terms of response time (3-12 hours vs. 24-72 hours) as well as for the possibility to be realized in automatic form. This paper presents an embedded portable biosensor system for the measurement of bacterial concentration in cow’s raw milk. The possibility to perform measurements “on the field”, hence without the need to ship samples to distant laboratories, and to transmit the data on wireless communication systems or on the Internet represents a substantial advantage in terms of time and cost, thus making the presented system an important tool for in-situ bacterial screening.

description: Studying backdoor attacks is valuable for model copyright protection and enhancing defenses. While existing backdoor attacks have successfully infected multimodal contrastive learning models such as CLIP, they can be easily countered by specialized backdoor defenses for MCL models. This paper reveals the threats in this practical scenario that backdoor attacks can remain effective even after defenses and introduces the \emph{\toolns} attack, which is resistant to backdoor detection and model fine-tuning defenses. To achieve this, we draw motivations from the perspective of the Bayesian rule and propose a dual-embedding guided framework for backdoor attacks. Specifically, we ensure that visual trigger patterns approximate the textual target semantics in the embedding space, making it challenging to detect the subtle parameter variations induced by backdoor learning on such natural trigger patterns. Additionally, we optimize the visual trigger patterns to align the poisoned samples with target vision features in order to hinder the backdoor unlearning through clean fine-tuning. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our attack significantly outperforms state-of-the-art baselines (+45.3% ASR) in the presence of SoTA backdoor defenses, rendering these mitigation and detection strategies virtually ineffective. Furthermore, our approach effectively attacks some more rigorous scenarios like downstream tasks. We believe that this paper raises awareness regarding the potential threats associated with the practical application of multimodal contrastive learning and encourages the development of more robust defense mechanisms.

description: This map is part of the AUSTopo - Australian Digital Topographic Map Series. It covers the whole of Australia at a scale of 1:250 000 (1cm on a map represents 2.5 km on the ground) and comprises 516 maps. This is the largest scale at which published topographic maps cover the entire continent. Each standard map covers an area of approximately 1.5 degrees longitude by 1 degree latitude or about 150 kilometres from east to west and at least 110 kilometres from north to south. The topographic map shows approximate coverage of the sheets. The map may contain information from surrounding map sheets to maximise utilisation of available space on the map sheet. There are about 50 special maps in the series and these maps cover a non-standard area. Typically, where a map produced on standard sheet lines is largely ocean it is combined with its landward neighbour. These maps contain natural and constructed features including road and rail infrastructure, vegetation, hydrography, contours (interval 50m), localities and some administrative boundaries.

description: Microbial screening is a primary concern for many products. Traditional techniques based on standard plate counts (SPC) are accurate, but time consuming. Furthermore, they require a laboratory environment and qualified personnel. The Impedance Technique (IT) looking for changes in the electrical characteristics of the Sample Under Test (SUT) induced by bacterial metabolism represents an interesting alternative to SPC since it is faster (3-12 hours vs 24-72 hours for SPC) and can be easily implemented in automatic form. With this approach, the essential parameter is the time for bacteria concentration to reach a critical threshold value (about 107 cfu∙mL-1) capable of inducing significant variations in the SUT impedance, measured by applying a 100 mV peak to peak 200 Hz sinusoidal test signal at time intervals of 5 minutes. The results of this work show good correlation between data obtained with the SPC approach and with impedance measurements lasting only 3 hours, in the case of highly contaminated samples (106 cfu∙mL-1). Furthermore, this work introduces a portable system for impedance measurements composed of an incubation chamber containing the SUT, a thermoregulation board to control the target temperature and an impedance measurement board. The mix of cheap electronics and fast detection time provides a useful tool for microbial screening in industrial and commercial environments.
Flipped SU(5): unification, proton decay, fermion masses and gravitational waves

description: We study supersymmetric (SUSY) flipped $SU(5)\times U(1)$ unification, focussing on its predictions for proton decay, fermion masses and gravitational waves. We performed a two-loop renormalisation group analysis and showed that the SUSY flipped $SU(5)$ model predicts a high GUT scale $M_{\rm GUT} > 10^{16}$ GeV. We also investigated the restrictions on the $M_{B-L}$ scale which is associated with the $U(1)_χ$ breaking scale. We found that the $M_{B-L}$ scale can vary in a broad region with negligible or little effect on the value of $M_{\rm GUT}$. Proton decay in this model is induced by dimension-6 operators only. The dimension-5 operator induced by SUSY contribution is suppressed due to the missing partner mechanism. We found that the partial decay width $p \to π^0 e^+$ is high suppressed, being at least one order of magnitude lower than the future Hyper-K sensitivity. We also studied fermion (including neutrino) masses and mixings which can also influence proton decay. We presented two scenarios of flavour textures to check the consistency of the results with fermion masses and mixing. The $B-L$ gauge breaking leads to the generation of cosmic strings. The $B-L$ scale here is not constrained by gauge coupling unification. If this scale is very close that of GUT breaking, strings can be unstable due to the decay to monopole-antimonople pair. Such metastable strings can be used to explain the NANOGrav signals of stochastic gravitational wave background, which may be interpreted here as resulting from the decay of metastable cosmic strings.
