Medium Fidelity Simulation of Oxygen Tank Venting (2013)

The item to he cleared is a medium-fidelity software simulation model of a vented cryogenic tank. Such tanks are commonly used to transport cryogenic liquids such as liquid oxygen via truck, and have appeared on liquid-fueled rockets for decades. This simulation model works with the HCC simulation system that was developed by Xerox PARC and NASA Ames Research Center. HCC has been previously cleared for distribution. When used with the HCC software, the model generates simulated readings for the tank pressure and temperature as the simulated cryogenic liquid boils off and is vented. Failures (such as a broken vent valve) can be injected into the simulation to produce readings corresponding to the failure. Release of this simulation will allow researchers to test their software diagnosis systems by attempting to diagnose the simulated failure from the simulated readings. This model does not contain any encryption software nor can it perform any control tasks that might be export controlled.
Un tesoro in pergamena (2009)

Information properties of recording media for photothermoplastic techniques were investigated. The films consisted of oligomer composites based on carbazole containing co-oligomers of linear and radial structures with branching centers on silicon and germanium atoms. It was ascertained that the media based on the radial oligomers possessed high holographic sensitivity because of the high plasticity and its ability to accumulate volume electric charge during the exposure. Examples of practical applications of the investigated recording media are presented.
The Per-Fide Corpus: : A New Resource for Corpus-Based Terminology, Contrastive Linguistics and Translation Studies (2014)

The Per-Fide project is a joint collaboration between researchers at the Department of Informatics and the Institute of Arts and Humanities at the University of Minho, Portugal. The acronym Per-Fide stands for Portuguese (P) in parallel with 6 languages: English (E), Russian (R), French (F), Italian (I), German/Deutsch (D) and Spanish/ Espanol (E). First, we expound on the role of the Per-Fide project within the context of existing corpora that include the Portuguese language in its different variants – namely, European Portuguese, Brazilian Portuguese and Portuguese spoken in African countries (Angola, Mozambique, Guinea-Bissau, Cape Verde, Sao Tome and Principe). The idea of creating a multilingual parallel corpus project in which Portuguese assumes a pivotal role arose primarily due to the fact that the majority of online corpora that include Portuguese are either monolingual or bilingual. Furthermore, these corpora focus mainly on one specific text type. Consequently, the few multilingual parallel corpora that include Portuguese consist of a relatively small Portuguese subcorpus1 and provide limited search facilities mainly due to the fact that the Portuguese texts have not been morphologically tagged and/or syntactically annotated. Our second goal in this chapter is to provide an overview of the design criteria for the development of tools and resources in the various stages of the Per-Fide corpora construction process, focusing particularly on automation, validation, generalization and resource sharing. Here, a brief description of the workflow components involved in the preand post-alignment phases will be included. Finally, we draw attention to several practical applications of the current features of the Per-Fide corpus in translation practice and contrastive linguistic studies, focusing on the use and potential of probabilistic translation dictionaries and the role that parallel corpora can play in translating idioms.

A Specific Immunologic Assay for Functional Plasminogen Activator Inhibitor 1 in Plasma – Standardized Measurements of the Inhibitor and Related Parameters in Patients with Venous Thromboembolic Disease (1992)

A new assay for functional plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 (PAI-1) in plasma was developed. The assay is based on the quantitative conversion of PAI-1 to urokinase-type plasminogen activator (u-PA)-PAI-1 complex the concentration of which is then determined by an ELISA employing monoclonal anti-PAI-1 as catching antibody and monoclonal anti-u-PA as detecting antibody. The assay exhibits high sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, and precision. The level of functional PAI-1, tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA) activity and t-PA-PAI-1 complex was measured in normal subjects and in patients with venous thromboembolism in a silent phase. Blood collection procedures and calibration of the respective assays were rigorously standardized. It was found that the patients had a decreased fibrinolytic capacity. This could be ascribed to high plasma levels of PAI-1. The release of t-PA during venous occlusion of an arm for 10 min expressed as the increase in t-PA + t-PA-PAI-1 complex exhibited great variation and no significant difference could be demonstrated between the patients with a thrombotic tendency and the normal subjects.
von Willebrand disease in Finland (1999)

The Finnish Red Cross Blood Transfusion Service has served as the national reference laboratory for haemostasis for more than 40 years and remains still the only one in the country to diagnose inherited coagulation factor deficiencies. By September 1997, 1076 patients with von Willebrand disease (vWD) were registered. The severity of bleeding symptoms leading to diagnosis varied according to the type of vWD. After prepubertal phase distinctly more female than male patients were diagnosed. The prevalence of severe type 3 vWD is 4:1 000 000.
Different effects of polymorphisms of tumor necrosis factor‐alpha and interleukin‐1 beta on development of peptic ulcer and gastric cancer (2006)

Polymorphisms in TNF-alpha rather than IL-1beta are associated with increased risk for gastric ulcers and gastric cancer in Japan. The simultaneous carriage of more than one high-producer allele of TNF-alpha further increased the risks for gastric ulcer and cancer.
Equipment for Diode Laser Pumping of New and Improved Optical Materials (1999)

Abstract : The main objective of our research under this DURIP program was the evaluation of new or improved optical materials currently under development either at CREOL, or in industry through collaboration with CREOL. DURIP support was used to purchase laser diodes and related equipment for pumping a variety of solid state materials which show promise for laser and phosphor applications. These include the laser candidates Tm,Dy:BYF, Tm,Ho:BYF, Yb,Pr:NYF, and Nd:NYF as well as several NYF-based phosphors sensitized by Yb. Experiments using laser diodes as the pump source are essential for a complete characterization of these materials, which exploit the advantages of diode-pumping, leading potentially to compact, efficient, and rugged systems. Much of the supported research was accomplished in partnership with DoD laboratories and contractors who supported the growth of the subject materials. An additional accomplishment of this DURIP program was its significant contribution to the education of the graduate and undergraduate students involved in the research. This research is described in the Ph.D. theses of two students, in addition to several publications in the literature.
Bioactivity Treatments for Zirconium and Ti-6Al-4V Alloy by the Function of Apatite Nuclei (2016)

Micropores were formed on the surfaces of Zirconium (Zr) and Ti-6Al-4V alloy plates by soaking in sulfuric acid. In order to provide bioactivity to these metals, Apatite Nuclei (AN) were precipitated in the pores. By soaking in SBF, it was observed that the whole surfaces of Zr and Ti-6Al-4V alloy with the AN treatment were covered with the bone-like apatite within 1 day. The formed apatite layer showed high adhesive strength by a mechanical interlocking effect.

Models of primitive cellular life: polymerases and templates in liposomes (2007)

Nutrient transport, polymerization and expression of genetic information in cellular compartments are hallmarks of all life today, and must have appeared at some point during the origin and early evolution of life. Because the first cellular life lacked membrane transport systems based on highly evolved proteins, they presumably depended on simpler processes of nutrient uptake. Using a system consisting of an RNA polymerase and DNA template entrapped in submicrometre-sized lipid vesicles (liposomes), we found that the liposome membrane could be made sufficiently permeable to allow access of ionized substrate molecules as large as nucleoside triphosphates (NTPs) to the enzyme. The encapsulated polymerase transcribed the template-specific base sequences of the DNA to the RNA that was synthesized. These experiments demonstrate that units of genetic information can be associated with a functional catalyst in a single compartment, and that transcription of gene-sized DNA fragments can be achieved by relying solely on passive diffusion to supply NTPs substrates.
Folding Kinetics of a Fluorescent Variant of Monomeric λ Repressor (1998)

A tryptophan-containing variant of monomeric lambda repressor has been made, and its folding kinetics were analyzed at 20 degreesC using fluorescence stopped-flow and dynamic NMR. Equilibrium denaturation curves obtained by circular dichroism, fluorescence, and NMR are superimposable. Stopped-flow analysis indicates that in the absence of denaturants the folding reaction is complete within the dead-time of the experiment. Within higher denaturant conditions, where the folding rate is slower, NMR and stopped-flow agree on the folding and unfolding rates of the protein. In 3.4 M urea and 1.8 M GdmCl, we show that the variant folds within 2 ms. Extrapolation indicates that the folding time is 20 micro(s) in the absence of denaturants. All folding and unfolding reactions displayed monoexponential kinetics, and no burst-phases were observed. In addition, the thermodynamic parameters Delta G and meq obtained from the kinetic analysis are consistent with the equilibrium experiments. The results support a two-state Dleft and right arrow N folding model.
Primary myelofibrosis (2010)

Myelofibrosis is a reactive process common to many malignant and benign disorders. Primary myelofibrosis is a chronic myeloproliferative disorder of unknown aetiology that involves a multipotent haemopoietic progenitor cell and results in abnormalities in red cell, white cell, and platelet production in association with marrow fibrosis and extramedullary haemopoiesis....
Binding and precipitation of soluble collagens by chick embryo cartilage proteoglycan. (1976)

A sensitive radioactive assay has been developed to facilitate study of the binding to and precipitation of soluble collagen by embryonic proteoglycans. Using this assay it has been found (a) that chick embryo cartilageproteoglycan is reactive with types I, II, and III soluble collagen; and (b) that both the core-protein and chondroitin sulfate chains of the proteoglycan are necessary for this interaction.
Phage‐display library biopanning as a novel approach to identifying nematode vaccine antigens (2011)

Infections with parasitic nematodes are of significant welfare and economic importance worldwide, and because of the emergence of anthelmintic resistance, this has lead to alternative methods of parasite control being required. Vaccination offers a feasible alternative control, and the majority of research has focused on the production of recombinant versions of native antigens previously identified as protective in vaccinated animals. Attempts at the production of protective recombinant subunit vaccines have been hindered, however, as these antigens have invariably failed to replicate the same level of protective immune response as seen with the native versions. It has been proposed that these failures are owing to the fact that the recombinant proteins do not contain the appropriate post-translational modifications to retain the protective capacity of the native molecules. In this review, we discuss a novel approach to vaccine antigen identification through the application of random peptide phage-display libraries and their use to identify peptide sequences that potentially mimic the structure(s) of antigenic epitopes. This area of research is still relatively novel with respect to parasites, and the current state of the art will be discussed here.
Exploring metabolomic approaches to analyse phospholipid biosynthetic pathways in <i>Plasmodium</i> (2010)

SUMMARYPlasmodium falciparum, the agent responsible for malaria, is an obligate intracellular protozoan parasite. For proliferation, differentiation and survival, it relies on its own protein-encoding genes, as well as its host cells for nutrient sources. Nutrients and subsequent metabolites are required by the parasites to support their high rate of growth and replication, particularly in the intra-erythrocytic stages of the parasite that are responsible for the clinical symptoms of the disease. Advances in mass spectrometry have improved the analysis of endogenous metabolites and enabled a global approach to identify the parasite's metabolites by the so-called metabolomic analyses. This level of analysis complements the genomic, transcriptomic and proteomic data already available and should allow the identification of novel metabolites, original pathways and networks of regulatory interactions within the parasite, and between the parasite and its hosts. The field of metabolomics is just in its infancy in P. falciparum, hence in this review, we concentrate on the available methodologies and their potential applications for deciphering important biochemical processes of the parasite, such as the astonishingly diverse phospholipid biosynthesis pathways. Elucidating the regulation of the biosynthesis of these crucial metabolites could help design of future anti-malarial drugs.
Separation of Somatotrophs from the Rat Adenohypophysis by Velocity and Density Gradient Centrifugation (1972)

Fractions containing over 90% somatotrophs can be separated from suspensions of adenohypophysial cells by the techniques of velocity and density gradient centrifugation. These isolated somatotrophs, as shown by radioimmunoassay, contain growth hormone. Light and electron microsopic studies show that the isolated somatotrophs retain their structural integrity. These somatotrophs incorporate 14C-amino acids into protein in linear fashion during 3-hr incubation.

Vorteile bei der Verwendung von Teflon-Katheterkanülen gegenüber Punktionsnadeln bei der direkten Karotisangiographie (1975)

A method for direct carotid puncture, using a Teflon-catheter cannula, is described. The complication rate of this method is compared with the usual technique using a rigid cannula. The significant advantage of using the Teflon-cannula consists in: 1. In the absence of sub-intimal contrast injection and 2. The possibility of selectively demonstrating the internal or external arteries from the common carotid.
Pulsed laser kinetic studies of liquids under high pressure. Progress report, November 25, 1991--September 18, 1992 (1992)

A laser flash photolysis kinetic study of 2,2{prime}-bipyridine bidentate chelating ligands with one claw in the first coordination sphere of a molybdenum carbonyl complex has been completed at pressures up to 150 MPa. The reaction mechanism for thermal ring closure is found from activation volumes to change from associative interchange to dissociative interchange as substituents on the 2,2{prime}-bipyridine ligands become bulkier. In a similar study of more rigid, substituted phenanthroline bidentate ligands it was found that substituent bulkiness had little effect on the thermal ring closure mechanism. Stability constants for lithium ion complexes with crown ethers in a room temperature molten salt, fluorescence quantum yields for cresyl violet and several other dyes in solution, and the oxidation of alcohols by OsO{sub 4} have also been investigated.

Phase III Randomized Trial of Intravenous Cisplatin Plus a 24- or 96-Hour Infusion of Paclitaxel in Epithelial Ovarian Cancer: A Gynecologic Oncology Group Study (2007)

Patients with advanced EOC have a relatively poor prognosis. The results of treatment with cisplatin and paclitaxel are not significantly improved by prolonging the paclitaxel infusion from 24 to 96 hours.
Interstitial Flow in the Hierarchical Pore Space Architecture of Bone Tissue (2013)

The governing equations for the theory of poroelastic materials with hierarchical pore space architecture and compressible constituents undergoing small deformations are developed. These equations are to be applied to the problem of determining the exchange of pore fluid between the vascular porosity and the lacunar-canalicular porosity in bone tissue due to cyclic mechanical loading and blood pressure oscillations. The result is basic to the understanding of interstitial flow in bone tissue that, in turn, is basic to understanding of nutrient transport from the vasculature to the bone cells buried in the bone tissue and to the process of mechanotransduction by these cells.
The Possible Redshift Clumping of Damped Lyman-alpha Absorbers (1997)

Introduction The observed redshift distribution of known damped Lyman-ff systems (DLAs) seems to show clumping at several specific redshifts. Our tests show this clumping to be marginally statistically significant. We examine positions on the sky of DLAs in some of the redshift peaks. About half of them appear to be grouped with typical separations of a few hundred comoving megaparsecs. While such structures cannot be gravitationally bound, they may represent high-redshift analogs of the &quot;Great Wall&quot; (or even larger structures), and may be related to the structures seen in deep redshift surveys (e.g., Broadhurst et al.). The significance of these findings is limited by the small number of available DLAs, and the resultant sparse sampling on the sky. 2. Data and Analysis If damped Lyman-ff systems (DLAs) are indicators of galaxy-type structures, we might expect that they would show some clustering. Because they are seen over a wi
