The golden chanterelles of Newfoundland and Labrador: a new species, a new record for North America, and a lost species rediscovered (2017)

Three species of golden chanterelles were found in Newfoundland and Labrador and were compared with other Cantharellus species by macromorphology, microscopy, and multilocus phylogenetic studies. The commonest species is a member of the C. cibarius group, usually found with Picea, and is differentiated from European C. cibarius by its pinkish-orange rather than yellow hymenium, and from both C. cibarius and C. roseocanus of the Pacific Northwest by its ITS and TEF1 sequences. We describe it as a new species, Cantharellus enelensis; published sequences extend its range to Michigan and Illinois. An uncommon species with reduced, merulioid hymenophore, found growing only with Betula, has rDNA and TEF1 sequences nearly identical to C. amethysteus, but only occasionally shows the amethyst scales on its cap characterizing that species in Europe. Ours is the first report of this species from North America. A third species was recognized by its sequences as C. camphoratus, but our collections, found with Abies balsamea, lack the odour of camphor for which this species was named and have longer and more slender spores than in the original description. This species has not been reported since its description from a single collection in Nova Scotia. All three species are edible.

A Critical Analysis of The Charitable Giving Act of 2005 and The Charitable Aid, Recovery, and Empowerment Act of 2005 (2006)

and Empowerment Act of 2005 (the "CARE Act"). 6 Congress introduced these acts " [t]o provide incentives for charitable contributions by individuals and businesses" 7 and for other purposes, including reforming the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), to improve the oversight of tax-exempt organizations. 8While both Acts have major sections related to charitable giving that are virtually identical, each act contains other sections aimed at meeting the respective Act's goals. 9This article will explain the major changes to the Internal Revenue Code 10 proposed by each act and discus whether the changes would accomplish the articulated goals. II. CHARITABLE GIVING INCENTIVESSignificantly, the Charitable Giving Act and the CARE Act provide incentives to increase charitable giving.This article examines these incentives by focusing on whether individuals or businesses would primarily benefit from the changes. A. IndividualsTo increase individual contributions to charities, the Charitable Giving Act and the CARE Act allow certain individuals to deduct charitable contributions without itemizing and also allow the elderly to make charitable contributions directly from their individual retirement accounts ("IRAs").In addition, the CARE Act provides enhanced deductions to individuals who donate their ownership rights in literary, musical, artistic, and scholarly compositions and increases the mileage deduction for charitable volunteers.Finally, to increase contributions of land and water rights for conservation purposes, the CARE Act provides increased tax 6 S.
Spatial Temporal Distribution of Helical Gyrotactic Swimmers (2023)

We consider a spherical swimmer that undergoes helical motion due to the existence of a propulsive torque which is not parallel to a propulsive force that pulls the cell through the fluid. In addition, the cell is bottom-heavy; the centre of gravity is offset from the centre of buoyancy which generates a gravitational torque. In the presence of shear, fluid viscosity generates a further torque. Because cells swim at low Reynolds number, these torques are balanced. This thesis extends the model developed in Bearon (2013) in two distinct directions. Firstly, we consider an extension to the case of a flow where the shear varies with position. We consider a downward flow in a vertical channel. We observe that depending on the parameters, cells may exhibit the classical accumulation towards the centre of the channel or display a new focussing away from the centre. Secondly, we develop the model to describe randomness associated with changes in cell orientation. This is done by developing a Fokker-Planck equation for helical swimmers in terms of Euler angles. The classical Fokker-Planck equation obtained by Pedley and Kessler (1992) is a special case of the equation derived in this thesis. To implement this model numerically as an individual based model, we derive the corresponding stochastic differential equations. The Fokker-Planck equation and stochastic differential equation are extended to examine the spatial-temporal distribution of helical swimmers. We explore in detail how the horizontal distribution of cells in channel flow evolves to an equilibrium state, and how the evolution depends on the model parameters. For non-helical swimmers, we compare the result of the model to the recent experiments of Croze et al (2017).
Trapping single human osteoblast-like cells from a heterogeneous population using a dielectrophoretic microfluidic device (2010)

We describe a system for the isolation, concentration, separation, and recovery of human osteoblast-like cells from a heterogeneous population using dielectrophoretic ring traps. Cells flowing in a microfluidic channel are immobilized inside an electric field cage using negative dielectrophoresis. A planar ring electrode creates a closed trap while repelling surrounding cells. Target cells are identified by fluorescent labeling, and are trapped as they pass across a ring electrode by an automated system. We demonstrate recovery of small populations of human osteoblast-like cells with a purity of 100%, which in turn demonstrates the potential of such a device for cell selection from a heterogeneous population.
Depositional geometry and fabric types of hydrothermal travertine deposits (Albegna Valley, Tuscany, Italy) (2012)

Travertines are continental calcium carbonate deposits precipitated by warm to hot water (from 20 up to 80 °C) supersaturated with calcium bicarbonate degassing CO2 while out-flowing from a tectonically controlled hydrothermal vent. Several mechanisms of mineral precipitation have been proposed to explain travertine formation, and these vary from abiotic to biogenic processes. The abiotic physicochemical control on mineral precipitation is driven by CO2 degassing and evaporation of water outflowing from the spring. Nevertheless, precipitation is not purely a consequence of physical degassing, due to the fact that calcium carbonate precipitation might be biologically influenced by the presence of microbial biofilms, common in such high temperature environments. Travertine deposits are widespread in different geographic areas, in particular in the Mediterranean region. Hydrothermalspring travertine deposition in Central Italy is considered mainly to be related to the magmatic and hydrothermal activity linked to the Plio-Pleistocene extensional tectonics developed during the opening of the Tyrrhenian Sea, following the Miocene Apennine thrust sheet belts propagation. Central Italy has extensive travertine accumulations all younger than 400 kyrs that include present-day deposits. In the Neogene Albegna Basin, southern Tuscany (Central Italy), travertines are present in several deposits, distributed along faults and fractures. They are from about 20 m up to 700 m a.s.l and some deposits are still active. The internal architecture of a fossil travertine body (Late Pleistocene-Holocene?) is well exposed within an active quarry located on the Manciano Sector of the Neogene Albegna Basin (Saturnia Travertine Quarry). The travertine deposit has an approximate maximum thickness of 40 m and it is laterally exposed for about 350 m.
Observation of quantum carrier confinement near Zn0.61Cd0.39Se/InP heterointerface (1996)

We report on the experimental observation of quantum carrier confinement near the ZnCdSe/InP interface using the capacitance voltage profiling technique. Three subband states are identified at different spatial position-expectation value. Type II band alignment between ZnCdSe and InP is determined. The conduction band discontinuity at the Zn0.61Cd0.39Se/InP heterointerface is estimated to be −102 meV.
Nonwoven materials produced by melt electrospinning of polyamide-6 and its blends with polypropylene, polystyrene and polylactide for oil spills removal (2020)

Nonwoven materials based on polyamide-6 and its blends with polypropylene, polystyrene and polylactide were obtained by melt electrospinning. The average diameter of the fibers was in the range of 2-10 µm. The supramolecular structure of the materials was characterized by IR spectroscopy and wide-angle X-ray diffraction. Their surface properties were studied by the contact angles measurements with water and motor oil as test liquids. The produced materials have a high sorption capacity (up to 100 g/g) and a low residual oil content (less than 3 g/g) after desorption.
Large-scale gold nanoparticle superlattice and its SERS properties for the quantitative detection of toxic carbaryl (2013)

Large scale and well-ordered gold nanoparticle superlattices were fabricated by self-assembly as an active substrate for surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) that can quantitatively detect carbaryl with a detection limit of 1 ppm. These fabricated superlattices with a dimension of several hundred micrometers exhibited high, reproducible SERS activity.
Architecture design and implementation of key components of an OFDM transceiver for IEEE 802.15.4g (2016)

This work proposes a transceiver architecture for the OFDM PHY of IEEE802.15.4g standard targeting Smart Metering Utility Networks. It also details the main components implemented for preliminary hardware prototyping. The OFDM transceiver is part of a project that is under development and aims to implement in ASIC the three PHYs defined by the IEEE802.15.4g standard, i.e. MR-FSK, MR-OQPSK and MR-OFDM. The OFDM baseband transmitter is complete. For the baseband receiver, the main components for frame synchronization and equalization, as well as for decoding the data, have been already implemented. The transceiver was designed using VHDL and prototyped on Altera's device 5CGXFCC5C6F27C7N.
Parameterizing fluctuations in solar photovoltaic generation using Hidden Markov Models (2013)

This paper parameterizes the distribution of fluctuations of generation from over 100 solar photovoltaic (PV) systems in the areas of San Jose, Los Angeles, and the Central Valley of California using a Hidden Markov Model (HMM) with Gaussian emissions. Emissions from the hidden states of the HMM, referred to as volatility states, have similar means and different variances, thus accounting for the high kurtosis of the general distribution. The resulting Gaussian shape of emissions from the HMM allows for simple prediction of the distribution shape of the sum of fluctuations from many systems. Geographic auto-correlation among fluctuations from neighboring systems is also assessed and is found to be highest for the volatility state with the second highest emission variance. Preliminary evidence shows that volatility states are dependent on cloud cover observations at a nearby ground station, indicating that distributions of these states may be predictable with commonly observed weather data.
Neural Data Compression with Wavelet Transform: A Vocabulary Based Approach (2007)

An algorithmic approach to develop the vocabulary of the nervous system and to use the vocabulary to communicate with the outside world is presented. The vocabulary is constructed using wavelet analysis of the recorded waveforms. Spikes of different frequency and amplitude from different channels are identified to construct unique signatures and relate them to physiological activities. A vocabulary-based communication of recorded action potentials renders two major advantages: a) it allows transmission of recorded data with large compression, thus, saving power and communication bandwidth of the integrated telemetry device; b) it helps easy mapping of alphabets in the vocabulary to muscular dynamics, which facilitates micro-stimulation based neural prostheses. In this work, we study the effectiveness of the proposed approach in neural data compression. Simulation results on pre-recorded data from the buccal nerves of a sea-slug shows that the proposed approach results in up to 80X compression

Unveiling Structural Motions of a Highly Fluorescent Superphotoacid by Locking and Fluorinating the GFP Chromophore in Solution (2017)

Superphotoacidity involves ultrafast proton motions implicated in numerous chemical and biological processes. We used conformational locking and strategic addition of electron-withdrawing substituents to synthesize a new GFP chromophore analogue: p-HO-3,5-diF-BDI:BF<sub>2</sub> (diF). It is highly fluorescent and exhibits excited-state proton transfer (ESPT) in various solvents, placing it among the strongest photoacids. Tunable femtosecond stimulated Raman spectroscopy with unique resonance conditions and transient absorption are complementarily employed to elucidate the structural basis for superphotoacidity. We reveal a multistep ESPT reaction from diF to methanol with an initial proton dissociation on the ∼600 fs time scale that forms a charge-separated state, stabilized by solvation, and followed by a diffusion-controlled proton transfer on the ∼350 ps time scale. A ∼1580 cm<sup>-1</sup> phenolic ring motion is uncovered to accompany ESPT before 1 ps. This study provides a vivid movie of the photoinduced proton dissociation of a superphotoacid with bright fluorescence, effectively bridging fundamental mechanistic insights to precise control of macroscopic functions.
Hemodialysis with a New Single Stable Bicarbonate Dialysate (1993)

A specified stable bicarbonate/glycylglycine dialysate for hemodialysis (HD) analogous to those introduced by us for continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) is described. HD with this single dialysate is simple, easy, safe and of reasonable cost. Results obtained from 6 HD patients proved its superiority against acetate dialysate. Bicarbonate/glycylglycine dialysate is also more stable, harmless and easier to use than bicarbonate dialysate prepared on-line.
Development and performance evaluation of Time-over-Threshold based digital PET (TODPET2) scanner using SiPM/Ce:GAGG-arrays for non-invasive measurement of blood RI concentrations (2017)

We developed Time-over-Threshold based digital PET (TODPET2) tomograph using silicon photomultipliers (SiPM) arrays coupled with pixelized Ce:Gd3(Ga, Al)5O12 (Ce:GAGG) scintillators dedicated for non-invasive measurement of blood RI concentrations. The detector consists of 1.57 × 1.57 mm2 SiPM chips and 1.6 × 1.6 × 15 mm3 Ce:GAGG scintillators arranged on a 12 × 12 channel, both working as individual readout systems. After the development of the detector, we fabricated the PET gantry composed of 8 pieces of SiPM/Ce:GAGG detector array which signals were sent to the current-comparing type time-over-threshold (TOT) ASIC for individual readout of pixels. The PET scanner which we developed has 25 mm axial field-of-view (FOV) and 60 mm transaxial FOV. The spatial resolution reconstructed with maximum likelihood estimation method (MLEM) is 0.98 mm (FWHM) at the center of FOV. The sensitivity of the system is measured to be 1.31% using 22Na point source. Finally, timing response to changes in RI concentration was also measured using 5 mm diameter syringe injected with several concentrations of 18FDG.
CovidSense: A Smartphone-based Initiative for Fighting COVID-19 Spreading (2020)

Coronavirus Disease COVID-19 is a new strain of coronavirus, first identified in clusters with pneumonia-like symptoms with manifestation mainly of fever (>37.8oC), runny nose, dry cough, anosmia, loss of taste, and fatigue. Testing for COVID-19 can be carried out on samples obtained by various methods, including nasopharyngeal swab or sputum sample. Results are generally available within a few hours to one day. Taking into consideration the worldwide COVID-19 pandemic impact (more than 35.500.000 incidences and more than 1.000.000 deaths so far), it is clear that there is an immediate need to devise an effective tool that can be used both at the hospital and home sites to provide a reliable risk index of confronting COVID-19. Here, the potentialities of a smartphone-based app, namely CovidSense, that could provide a reliable COVID-19 risk index to the user before performing any relevant clinical test, monitor his/her symptoms and provide guidance for further actions are presented. CovidSense is a holistic approach for COVID-19 risk assessment that captures both the status of the respiratory system, via acquisition and AI-based analysis of breathing and coughing sounds, along with the Autonomic Nervus System/Immune System status, via the capturing and analysis of the Heart Rate Variability. The analytical description and functionality of the CovidSense included here manifests the usefulness of such approach in continuous symptoms monitoring, allowing people with early symptoms, quarantined and sensitive groups, such as older adults and patients with comorbidities, to become active participants in the effort of fighting the spread of COVID-19, by monitoring their status and get engaged in appropriate preventative actions. CovidSense paves the way for solutions using technological artifacts, such as smartphones, to foster inclusiveness and joint efforts in successfully addressing global health problems, such as the COVID-19 pandemic.
Microbial Hydrogenation of Nitroolefins (1985)

Microorganisms which hydrogenate 2-nitro-1-phenyl-1-propene were screened in type cultures and soil samples. Some actinomycetes belonging to Rhodococcus, Nocardia and Mycobacterium asymmetrically reduced the substrate and gave optically active 2-nitro-1-phenylpropane. Among them, Rhodococcus rhodochrous IFO 3338 gave the best results. The saturated compound was obtained quantitatively, when cultivation was carried out for 3 days at 30°C with a substrate concentration of 0.4%. The optical purity of the product was seriously affected by the pH of the medium. The more acidic the medium, the higher the enantiomeric excess. The results suggested that non-enzymatic racemization of the product takes place even under neutral conditions. Other substrates, such as 2-nitro-1-propene were also converted to optically active 2-nitro-1-substituted propane.
A W-Band 3-D Integrated Mini-SAR System With High Imaging Resolution on UAV Platform (2020)

The light-small multi-rotor unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) carrying with a mini synthetic aperture radar (SAR) payload has provided an advanced information acquisition technology for the target detecting and imaging fields. In this paper, a W-band compact SAR system is proposed, which has been successfully deployed on the unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) platform demonstrating state-of-the-art imaging resolution of about 4.5 cm. In order to achieve remarkable compactness, light weight and powersaving feature for the proposed system, the techniques of the three-dimensional (3-D) integration are adopted, where a whole-system size of only 67 × 60×50 mm <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">3</sup> and the weight of 400 g are obtained. This proposed system achieves higher SAR-imaging resolution thanks to the contributions of many efforts, including the technique of high-linearity waveform generation, the substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) antenna with high isolation by the electromagnetic band-gap (EBG) mechanism, and a novel motion compensation method for the imaging formation. To validate this proposed idea, a UAV SAR prototype operating at W-band is designed and fabricated. The measurements show great signal-to-noise ratio imaging results with excellent focusing effect. The proposed SAR system is promisingly an ideal candidate for the target detecting/imaging applications deployed on the UAV platform.

A novel compact antenna with a low profile demonstrated on embedded wafer level packaging (EMWLP) technology (2011)

In an RF front-end module, the reduction of the antenna size is a challenge since it is dependent on the frequency of operation. In this paper, a method of antenna miniaturization is introduced, by employing a novel meander CPWG feed structure as well as reducing the footprints of both radiating structure and the feed structure. In one of the proposed structures, the bandwidth can be enhanced by introducing a slotted ground plane for better matching. The structures are fabricated on cost-effective platforms using embedded wafer level packaging (EMWLP) and FR-4 laminates, with a compact footprint and low profile achieved.
Psychological impact of multigene cancer panel testing in patients with a clinical suspicion of hereditary cancer across Spain (2018)

Our results suggest that patients can psychologically cope with cancer panel testing, but distress and uncertainty observed in carriers of moderate penetrance cancer variants in this cohort warrant further research.
