COMPARISON OF THE ERYTHEMOGENIC EFFECTIVENESS OF ULTRA VIOLET‐B (290‐320 nm) and ULTRA VIOLET‐A (320‐400 nm) RADIATION BY SKIN REFLECTANCE (1983)

Abstract –Based on optical properties of the skin, its constituent layers and the blood, and a previously experimentally verified quantitative model for the optical transfer properties in skin, noninvasive determinations of the amount of cutaneous blood in the superficial plexus are made from skin reflectance. This method is used to determine UVA and UVB fluences that cause cutaneous blood in the superficial plexus to increase to 1.5, 2 and 2.5 times the pre‐radiation volume at various times after irradiation. Our results show that on an equal fluence basis, UVB is two to three thousand times as effective as UVA in inducing erythema, whether erythema is evaluated 8, 24 or 72 h after irradiation. This agrees with the result obtained in terms of minimal erythema dose by visual inspection.
Mechanical Characterization Study of Sintered Silver Pastes: Preprint (2018)

Sintered silver-based bonded interfaces are a critical enabling technology for high-temperature, compact, high-performance, and reliable wide-bandgap packages and components. High-pressure (about 40 MPa) sintered silver interfaces have been implemented commercially, most notably the commercial products offered by Semikron. To reduce manufacturing complexity, there is significant industry interest in pressure-less sintered silver interfaces. To this end, current formulations of sintered silver paste are comprised of purely nano-sized silver particles or a combination of nano- and micro-sized silver particles/flakes. It is essential to quantify the mechanical properties and determine the reliability of these interfaces prior to use in automotive power electronics applications. In this paper, research efforts at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory, in collaboration with Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University and an industry partner, in optimizing the synthesis procedure and mechanical characterization of sintered silver double-lap samples are described. These double-lap samples were synthesized using pressure-less sintering techniques. Shear testing was conducted at multiple temperatures and displacement rates on these samples sintered using two types of sintered silver pastes, one of them consisting of nano-silver particles and the other a hybrid paste or a combination of nano- and micron-sized silver flakes, employed in a double-lap configuration. Maximum values of shear stress obtained from the characterization study are reported.

&lt;div class="htmlview paragraph"&gt;The issues of active vs. passive means of power quality improvement in aerospace applications are addressed. The concept of nonlinear load, i.e., the relationship between the current harmonics and system power factor has been reviewed. Both passive and active means of harmonic minimization are discussed, including resonance issues associated with passive networks and presenting an active rectifier switched in a Space Vector (SV) Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) manner. The analysis of power quality in aerospace applications is presented, together with the industry governing standards. Results of case studies are given, using Saber hierarchical tools for the system analysis. Both simulation and experimental results are provided, demonstrating power quality improvements in several aerospace applications.&lt;/div&gt;
A 'Sky Lens' for an Auroral Spectrograph (1961)

A ‘sky lens’ images a strip of sky on the entrance slit of a spectrograph. Then the intensity distribution of each spectral emission from the strip of sky is mapped along the corresponding spectral line. In order to reduce light losses to a minimum a single lens component may be used for this purpose (in place of the usual two components), but one surface should be aspherized. If this surface is made an hyperboloid the lens performs very well over a 20° field.

Identification of IgF, a hinge-region-containing Ig class, and IgD inXenopus tropicalis (2006)

Only three Ig isotypes, IgM, IgX, and IgY, were previously known in amphibians. Here, we describe a heavy-chain isotype in Xenopus tropicalis, IgF (encoded by C(phi)), with only two constant region domains. IgF is similar to amphibian IgY in sequence, but the gene contains a hinge exon, making it the earliest example, in evolution, of an Ig isotype with a separately encoded genetic hinge. We also characterized a gene for the heavy chain of IgD, located immediately 3' of C(mu), that shares features with the C(delta) gene in fish and mammals. The latter gene contains eight constant-region-encoding exons and, unlike the chimeric splicing of muC(H)1 onto the IgD heavy chain in teleost fish, it is expressed as a unique IgD heavy chain. The IgH locus of X. tropicalis shows a 5' V(H)-D(H)-J(H)-C(mu)-C(delta)-C(chi)-C(upsilon)-C(phi) 3' organization, suggesting that the mammalian and amphibian Ig heavy-chain loci share a common ancestor.
Production of Squeezed States in the Interaction between Electromagnetic Radiation and an Electron Gas (1985)

We show that squeezed states can be generated by the interaction of coherent electromagnetic radiation with a plasma. Inside the plasma the electromagnetic field is represented by quasiphotons. The conditions for obtaining squeezed states in this system are related to dispersion relations of the quasiphotons in the plasma.
Syntrophy of aerobic and anaerobic ammonia oxidisers (2010)

Deammonification is known as an efficient and resource saving sidestream process option to remove the nitrogen load from sludge liquors. The transfer of the intermediate product nitrite between both syntrophic groups of organisms - aerobic and anaerobic ammonia oxidizers (AOB) - appears very sensitive to process conditions such as temperature, dissolved oxygen (DO) and operating nitrite level. Growth kinetics for aerobic and anaerobic AOBs differ by one order of magnitude and require an adequate selection of sludge retention time. This paper provides measurement- and model-based results on how selected sludge wasting impacts population dynamics in a suspended growth deammonification system. Anammox enrichment up to a doubled portion in mixed liquor solids can substantially improve process stability in difficult conditions. A case-study on low temperature operations outlines two possible strategies to balance syntrophic consumption of ammonium and nitrite.
A luciferase reporter mouse model to optimize in vivo gene editing validated by lipid nanoparticle delivery of adenine base editors (2023)

The rapid development of CRISPR genome editing technology has provided the potential to treat genetic diseases effectively and precisely. However, efficient and safe delivery of genome editors to affected tissues remains a challenge. Here, we developed luminescent ABE (LumA), a luciferase reporter mouse model containing the R387X mutation (c.A1159T) in the luciferase gene located in the Rosa26 locus of the mouse genome. This mutation eliminates luciferase activity but can be restored upon A-to-G correction by SpCas9 adenine base editors (ABEs). The LumA mouse model was validated through intravenous injection of two FDA-approved lipid nanoparticle (LNP) formulations consisting of either MC3 or ALC-0315 ionizable cationic lipids, encapsulated with ABE mRNA and LucR387X-specific guide RNA (gRNA). Whole-body bioluminescence live imaging showed consistent restoration of luminescence lasting up to 4 months in treated mice. Compared with mice carrying the wild-type luciferase gene, the ALC-0315 and MC3 LNP groups showed 83.5% ± 17.5% and 8.4% ± 4.3% restoration of luciferase activity in the liver, respectively, as measured by tissue luciferase assays. These results demonstrated successful development of a luciferase reporter mouse model that can be used to evaluate the efficacy and safety of different genome editors, LNP formulations, and tissue-specific delivery systems for optimizing genome editing therapeutics.
Validating a Web service security abstraction by typing (2002)

An XML web service is, to a first approximation, an RPC service in which requests and responses are encoded in XML as SOAP envelopes, and transported over HTTP. We consider the problem of authenticating requests and responses at the SOAP-level, rather than relying on transport-level security. We propose a security abstraction, inspired by earlier work on secure RPC, in which the methods exported by a web service are annotated with one of three security levels: none, authenticated, or both authenticated and encrypted. We model our abstraction as an object calculus with primitives for defining and calling web services. We describe the semantics of our object calculus by translating to a lower-level language with primitives for message passing and cryptography. To validate our semantics, we embed correspondence assertions that specify the correct authentication of requests and responses. By appeal to the type theory for cryptographic protocols of Gordon and Jeffrey's Cryptyc, we verify the correspondence assertions simply by typing. Finally, we describe an implementation of our semantics via custom SOAP headers.

Interaction of translation factor SELB with the formate dehydrogenase H selenopolypeptide mRNA. (1993)

The SELB protein from Escherichia coli is a specialized elongation factor required for the UGA-directed insertion of the amino acid selenocysteine into selenopolypeptides. Discrimination of the UGA codon requires the presence of a recognition element within the mRNA, which is located at the 3' side of the UGA codon; a hairpin structure can be formed within this mRNA region. By gel shift assays, a specific interaction between SELB and the mRNA recognition element could be demonstrated. Footprinting experiments, using nucleases or iodine as cleaving agents, showed that SELB binds to the loop region of the hairpin structure. In the presence of selenocysteinyl-tRNA, SELB formed a complex with the charged tRNA and the mRNA. The results indicate that targeted insertion of selenocysteine is accomplished by the binding of the SELB protein to this mRNA recognition element, resulting in the formation of a selenocysteinyl-tRNA.SELB complex at the mRNA in the immediate neighborhood of the UGA codon.
Latissimus Dorsi Dynamic Cardiomyoplasty: Role of Combined ICD Implantation (1995)

Latissimus dorsi cardiomyoplasty is a promising surgical therapy in some patients with congestive heart failure. Although the mortality in heart failure patients is attributable primarily to heart failure and ventricular arrhythmias, the mechanism of death after cardiomyoplasty is not well characterized. We describe the clinical course of a patient undergoing cardiomyoplasty and discuss the role of combined use with an implantable cardioverter defibrillator. A 39-year-old man with congestive heart failure due to a massive anterior wall myocardial infarction was evaluated for latissimus dorsi cardiomyoplasty. The patient was in NYHA Functional Class III due to heart failure. He did not have any significant exertional or rest angina. During a Naughton stress test, the patient could exercise for 10 minutes, achieving 4 METS. Pulmonary function study showed a peak V O2 of 22.1 mL/min per kg. Radionuclide angiography demonstrated that the anterior wall was akinetic with a left ventricular ejection fraction of 22%. Cardiac hemodynamic studies suggested moderate pulmonary hypertension, elevated wedge pressure, and suboptimal response to exercise. A Holter recording showed frequent ventricular extrasystoles. Cardiomyoplasty was preferred to heart transplantation because the patient did not have end-stage heart failure. Postoperatively, the patient required low doses of dopamine. He developed recurrent, sustained, and hemodynamically significant episodes of ventricular tachycardia. He was treated with a combination of amiodarone and procainamide. He died 2 days postoperatively with ventricular fibrillation. Ventricular arrhythmias are a major cause of death in patients with heart failure. Latissimus dorsi cardiomyoplasty appears to be a promising but unproven therapy in such patients.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
Prediction of the Creep-Fatigue Lifetime of Alloy 617: An Application of Non-destructive Evaluation and Information Integration (2014)

A relatively simple method using the nominal constant average stress information and the creep rupture model is developed to predict the creep-fatigue lifetime of Alloy 617, in terms of time to rupture. The nominal constant average stress is computed using the stress relaxation curve. The predicted time to rupture can be converted to number of cycles to failure using the strain range, the strain rate during each cycle, and the hold time information. The predicted creep-fatigue lifetime is validated against the experimental measurements of the creep-fatigue lifetime collected using conventional laboratory creep-fatigue tests. High temperature creep-fatigue tests of Alloy 617 were conducted in air at 950°C with a tensile hold period of up to 1800s in a cycle at total strain ranges of 0.3% and 0.6%. It was observed that the proposed method is conservative in that the predicted lifetime is less than the experimentally determined values. The approach would be relevant to calculate the remaining useful life to a component like a steam generator that might fail by the creep-fatigue mechanism.
Rifabutin-Associated Uveitis (1995)

Rifabutin is prescribed frequently for the prophylaxis and treatment of MAC infection, especially in patients with HIV. Uveitis is a rare, dose-related toxicity of this therapy. The risk of rifabutin-associated uveitis may be increased in patients receiving concurrent therapy with clarithromycin or fluconazole because of drug interactions. Patients receiving therapy with combinations of any of these agents should be warned about signs and symptoms of uveitis and be monitored closely for the development of rifabutin toxicity. If uveitis develops, rifabutin therapy should be discontinued promptly.
Synthesis and in vivo antitumor activity of 2-amino-9H-purine-6-sulfenamide, -sulfinamide, and -sulfonamide and related purine ribonucleosides (1990)

A number of 6-sulfenamide, 6-sulfinamide, and 6-sulfonamide derivatives of 2-aminopurine and certain related purine ribonucleosides have been synthesized and evaluated for antileukemic activity in mice. Amination of 6-mercaptopurine ribonucleoside (7a) and 6-thioguanosine (7b) with chloramine solution gave 9-beta-D-ribofuranosylpurine-6-sulfenamide (8a) and 2-amino-9-beta-D-ribofuranosylpurine-6-sulfenamide (sulfenosine, 8b), respectively. Selective oxidation of 8a and 8b with 3-chloroperoxybenzoic acid (MCPBA) gave (R,S)-9-beta-D-ribofuranosylpurine-6-sulfinamide (9a) and (R,S)-2-amino-9-beta-D-ribofuranosylpurine-6-sulfinamide (sulfinosine, 9b), respectively. However, oxidation of 8a and 8b with excess of MCPBA gave 9-beta-D-ribofuranosylpurine-6-sulfonamide (10a) and 2-amino-9-beta-D-ribofuranosylpurine-6-sulfonamide (sulfonosine, 10b), respectively. Similarly, amination of 5'-deoxy-6-thioguanosine (7c) afforded the 6-sulfenamide derivative (8c), which on controlled oxidation gave (R,S)-2-amino-9-(5-deoxy-beta-D-ribofuranosyl)purine-6-sulfinamide (9c) and the corresponding 6-sulfonamide derivative (10c). Treatment of 6-thioguanine (12) with aqueous chloramine solution gave 2-amino-9H-purine-6-sulfenamide (13). Oxidation of 13 with 1 molar equiv of MCPBA afforded (R,S)-2-amino-9H-purine-6-sulfinamide (14), whereas the use of 4 molar equiv of MCPBA furnished 2-amino-9H-purine-6-sulfonamide (15). The resolution of R and S diastereomers of sulfinosine (9b) was accomplished by HPLC techniques. The structures of (R)-9b and 10b were assigned by single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies. (R)-9b exists in the crystal structure in four crystallographically independent conformations. Of the 18 compounds evaluated, 13 exhibited very significant anti-L1210 activity in mice. Sulfenosine (8b) at 22 mg/kg per day X 1 showed a T/C of 170, whereas sulfinosine (9b) at 173 mg/kg per day X 1 showed a T/C of 167 against L1210 leukemia. The 5'-deoxy analogue of sulfinosine (9c) at 104 mg/kg per day also showed a T/C of 172. A single treatment with 8b, 9b, and 9c reduced body burdens of viable L1210 cells by more than 99.8%.
From Mixed-Metal MOFs to Carbon-Coated Core–Shell Metal Alloy@Metal Oxide Solid Solutions: Transformation of Co/Ni-MOF-74 to CoxNi1–x@CoyNi1–yO@C for the Oxygen Evolution Reaction (2017)

Calcination of the mixed-metal species Co/Ni-MOF-74 leads to the formation of carbon-coated Co<sub>x</sub>Ni<sub>1-x</sub>@Co<sub>y</sub>Ni<sub>1-y</sub>O with a metal core diameter of ∼3.2 nm and a metal oxide shell thickness of ∼2.4 nm embedded uniformly in the ligand-derived carbon matrix. The close proximity of Co and Ni in the mixed-metal Co/Ni-MOF-74 promotes the metal alloying and the formation of a solid solution of metal oxide during the calcination process. The presence of the tightly coated carbon shell prohibits particle agglomeration and stabilizes the Co<sub>x</sub>Ni<sub>1-x</sub>@Co<sub>y</sub>Ni<sub>1-y</sub>O nanoparticles in small size. The Co<sub>x</sub>Ni<sub>1-x</sub>@Co<sub>y</sub>Ni<sub>1-y</sub>O@C derived from Co/Ni-MOF-74 nanocomposites show superior performance for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER). The use of mixed-metal MOFs as precursors represents a powerful strategy for the fabrication of metal alloy@metal oxide solid solution nanoparticles in small size. This method also holds great promise in the development of multifunctional carbon-coated complex core-shell metal/metal oxides owing to the diversified MOF structures and their flexible chemistry.
Simple Single-Laser Coherent Transceiver Based on Low-Cost D-EML for Edge Networks (2023)

In this work we demonstrate single-laser, D-EML based coherent transceivers which transmit and simultaneously receive optical single sideband modulations through a phase noise cancelling scheme, leading to phase-noise and frequency-detuning clean signals. We use QPSK and 16-QAM modulations over a 500 Mbaud signal, reaching 1 Gbps and 2 Gbps respectively, with sensitivities as low as −53 and −40 dBm with unmodulated local oscillator, respectively, and −35 dBm for QPSK with modulated local oscillator, achieving high sensitivity coherent UD-WDM for analog radio over fiber and mobile fronthaul over passive optical networks.
Comparative Evaluation of Plasma Metabolomic Data from Multiple Laboratories (2022)

In mass spectrometry-based metabolomics, the differences in the analytical results from different laboratories/machines are an issue to be considered because various types of machines are used in each laboratory. Moreover, the analytical methods are unique to each laboratory. It is important to understand the reality of inter-laboratory differences in metabolomics. Therefore, we have evaluated whether the differences in analytical methods, with the exception sample pretreatment and including metabolite extraction, are involved in the inter-laboratory differences or not. In this study, nine facilities are evaluated for inter-laboratory comparisons of metabolomic analysis. Identical dried samples prepared from human and mouse plasma are distributed to each laboratory, and the metabolites are measured without the pretreatment that is unique to each laboratory. In these measurements, hydrophilic and hydrophobic metabolites are analyzed using 11 and 7 analytical methods, respectively. The metabolomic data acquired at each laboratory are integrated, and the differences in the metabolomic data from the laboratories are evaluated. No substantial difference in the relative quantitative data (human/mouse) for a little less than 50% of the detected metabolites is observed, and the hydrophilic metabolites have fewer differences between the laboratories compared with hydrophobic metabolites. From evaluating selected quantitatively guaranteed metabolites, the proportion of metabolites without the inter-laboratory differences is observed to be slightly high. It is difficult to resolve the inter-laboratory differences in metabolomics because all laboratories cannot prepare the same analytical environments. However, the results from this study indicate that the inter-laboratory differences in metabolomic data are due to measurement and data analysis rather than sample preparation, which will facilitate the understanding of the problems in metabolomics studies involving multiple laboratories.
